What are said cool features?

Another point that just came to me: Ads are the most effective if the customer doesn’t know about the product being advertised. Everybody already knows about Conk. (I’m referring to them as “Conk” now). So, Conk probably doesn’t need that annual “Holidays are coming” ad.

Prisons in the US are overcrowded. On the other hand, many are in prison for stupid reasons, and should probably just get released.

The two party system is baked into the system, without reform, it will persist through all challenges.

Imagine you’re building more comfortable prisons to house all the people incarcerated in the US. Who do you move to the comfy prisons first? Elderly inmates? Non-violent offenders? While all the inmates deserve better treatment, I’d prioritize those who have committed less severe crimes.

Remember: Drink water, or a similar non-coca-cola substance.

Also, a consistent truck design is something a human at any skill level would have gotten right.

Just launch a ton of ball bearings into orbit, and end space flight for ever. Or at least for the forseeable future.

Edit: Bearing balls, actually. Ball bearings is where the bearing balls are. But we want them in orbit.

The premise of the meme is that God exists and can be asked questions.

The biggest problem isn’t even the inaccuracies, it’s that the inaccuracies are unfixable.

And what, pray tell me, if the IPO succeeds? The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.

A cubic meter is a thousand liters, Which seems to be a lot of water to use in a 12 hour period, statistics I found point at an average water consumption of 100 to 130 liters per day, so a regular consumer would never even get close to the point where it doubles, and therefore would be unaffected. So why do you think this would hurt poor people?

When should the counter reset?

A shutdown means that the government is insolvent, though. At some point, the funds will run dry without borrowing more. A default would likely send the US and world economy into a recession. Though could be that Trump will just bypass congress to borrow more money anyway.

If it helps, those AI videos allegedly cost Sora 1$ per second of video to produce, and it takes quite a few tries to get it right. There’s no way to make it profitable in its current form.

Thanks for your reply.

Or a Bethesda style creation club is coming.

Which generations did your research cover besides boomers? Did you cover the ones that came before boomers? I’m asking because the silent generation (1928-45) are already getting rare due to age, potentially requiring different methodology, and it could be that the difference in attitude you observed could be a temporal thing (Everyone older than t thinks one way, and those younger think another way).

I thought the government was shut down?

Whoever’s in charge needs to keep it working and will generally take the blame when it doesn’t. Even if they don’t take the blame, they’ll be expected to fix it, and will get blamed when things don’t get fixed.

What does a corpo say before he offs himself?
