Short term rentals would be fine if companies like Airbnb weren’t getting a cut. Like they existed on Craigslist and as actual bead-and-breakfasts way before airbnb et al existed.

Sure does!

The Nazis would have gotten away with the holocaust if they hadn’t started ww2.

Israel will get away with this :(

It’s about interest, not consistency. This is true for all countries.

There is no hypocrisy in IR, because there is only one justification for any action a country can take: self benefit.

Dude what, replace all of those with me skiing while my mouse jiggler keeps my slack status active lol

I was making the point that “your car is spying on you” probably isn’t true for a huge section of people, since there are lots of 10-15 year old cars on the road.

Also, older cars are much more repairable than people consider. We just have a huge economic infrastructure set up around having the “next best thing”.

I find it very hard to believe that almost any car made before 2012 or so is tracking me.

My aftermarket radio may be tracking me though.

To maintain an allied power center in the region. Same reason the US colludes with the saudis.

Good, can we have one that’s 100 times smarter and just runs the government benevolently? I’m really sick of civic responsibility

But the browser can’t handle other languages? That seems a bit silly

I don’t work with web stuff, why is js so weird? Can you write a website in other languages, like c# or python?

Why are there so many pedos among the rich

I’d love to go electric but most of the electric vehicles I’ve seen are a) luxury and b) small. Like I want something large that can pull a trailer and haul my kayaks/bikes/skis/tools/etc.

So an actual SUV (not a small suv like Tesla X) sounds great, but all this luxury shit is a big turnoff for me. It’s going to get beat to hell, and I don’t want to worry about fixing all this electronic shit like pop out door handles. I don’t even want power windows or AC.

Pretty sure it means accepting that you’re trans

And the blue pill symbolizes continuing to pretend to be someone else

Like the whole movie is a trans allegory, especially considering the creators.

No I want it to run locally

I want a personal assistant that actually works. Like Siri or Alexa, but it can actually do secretarial tasks.

“Find and schedule a roofing company to come fix the roof”

“See if you can get me dinner reservations for a nice Italian restaurant tomorrow night at 630”

“Write an email to bob apologizing for running over his dog”

“Find an image on the internet of a person being mauled by a bear, edit the picture so that it’s James being mauled, and send picture to him”

“Find a new show for me to watch and torrent the first episode, re-dub it in Japanese with Spanish subtitles”

And North America is in America

That’s idiotic. The alternative is to bomb them.

You aren’t going to stop strong countries from exerting their will on weaker countries; that’s the entire reason to be a stronger country in the first place.

Having economic sanctions as a blow-off-valve against war is a good thing, pragmatically.
