I only buy free range eggs even though they were a little more expensive, and surprisingly they're the same price they've always been and cheaper than the grocery store brand.

Isn't this totally ignoring the geopolitical position of Ukraine though? They're a bulwark against (physical) Russian aggression toward the EU. Abandoning that puts a strain on US relations with the rest of the world, by design. What happens after this? Russia isn't going to suddenly stop trying to colonize areas next to them.

Instead of being a great "business deal" for the US, it's pushing the rest of the world away, forcing the US to use bully tactics and physical threats rather than actual diplomacy because Trump can only see it as zero-sum, or more likely is intentionally sabotaging our relationships.

I suppose actually understanding nuance and the consequences of your actions are not something he is capable of, though.

“How is ice-skating going to teach [kids] how to navigate recovery, how to address these issues within their home, how to understand the disease of addiction?”

Maybe by giving them something to do other than drugs? An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. They get free admission for completing the DARE program which (in theory) educates them on exactly that. In my experience it was mostly fear mongering but that's a separate issue that needs addressing.

It's not even a significant portion of the funds they're getting, can these people see past their own noses?

What makes it make even less sense is imagine they could magically somehow have invested instead of creating something. Fast forward a few cycles of businesses swapping over from not beating the average and instead of actually creating anything, everybody is only investing. Except, none of them are actually creating anything.

if I remember correctly the #1 most important tip he wanted you leave with was to run the hot water before starting the cycle so the prewash uses hot water. But, it sounds like your dishwasher is just crap.

The time for rallying is now, every state had a protest this month on the 5th (50501). There's another one happening on President's Day. Attending these shows that people who are fed up are real and are here. I don't think peaceful protests will necessarily effect change BUT they are a place to gain visibility, meet like minded individuals, and build support groups. It won't grow if people don't show up!

I think about this post from last year a lot:

Navok noted that if a game costs $100 million to make over five years, it has to beat what the company could have returned investing a similar amount in the stock market over the same period.

I know that you mean a "shithole" country, but I think 2nd world country is more accurate here

Platforms like that are still considered public forums when they are communicating in an official capacity and they are required to archive and preserve their communications. Whether or not they actually do... If you want to call them on it you can open a FOIA request.

Here's what NARA has:

Obama: https://www.obamalibrary.gov/digital-research-room/archived-white-house-websites-and-social-media Trump 1: https://www.trumplibrary.gov/research/archived-social-media - doesn't look like they have files freely available

Nothing for Biden yet

I'm currently on the lookout for a 90's Subaru Domingo with the right specs. I might need to bite the bullet and partner up with an importer, though.

Maybe one day an R32 skyline.

If money was no object, a Lancia Stratos would be it. It looks so sick.

You said it's not runtime type checking but then switched to "strict type checking" - those aren't the same. Other person has it right, it has runtime type checking. The type checking happens when running your code. I don't think that's particularly useful, it's pretty much sugar on top of what would throw an error anyway.

They are actually speaking like that. I think it might actually be more overt than Naruto lmao

Every time Senku says "hyaku oku" he's going full hyperbole. Gen it's harder to tell if you don't know Japanese.
