Where is it defined as 200-400k a year?

I thought it was based off of savings and ability to vacation

I just take issue with the word “rich”

Like all those people are poor, primarily as a result of the politicians and corporate greed. I ain’t rich but I’m luckily far from that 40% grouping. I’d probably be grouped as the elusive middle class

My buddy moved to Oregon where they don’t add fluoride to the water, and recently saw a dentist. The dentist could immediately tell he was from out of state and advised him he’d have to add supplementary fluoride rinses to his dental hygiene regimen to compensate.

I thought that was pretty cool the dentist could eyeball how impactful fluoride in the drinking water was.

You don’t have to be rich, that’s what loans are for Solar is also way cheaper in other non-us countries

Also balcony solar is coming to the US so it’ll be more accessible

IPoAC

It sometimes can be a better option to move data, since storage density is pretty high. Like if Cletus needed a shitload of mp4s and only had POTS or pigeons lol

When my favorite bands drop new songs, I’ll exclusively listen to those new songs on repeat for days

I love music

That 200mi estimate is based on driving around 30-40 mph

You can expect like 140 miles of range at highway speeds

It’s pedantic, but I wouldn’t blame society as a whole but the few psychos at the top of the pyramid (e.g. tech billionaires, corrupt politicians, etc)

Most of society (+99%) just wants to have their needs met, and when given the proper support are good people. The elite bastards spew so much propaganda and fund things against our interests that a lot of people can’t be their best selves.

This is great, thank you!

Laughs in 45 MPH zones (72 Kph)

Not defending it but this car wouldn’t keep up with the regular roads I drive to work. I’m curious how quickly it can accelerate too

You should pull footage now to ensure it’s working the way you want. I realized my date/timestamps were broken cuz the camera was only powered when the car was. Misc stuff like that is good to know ahead of time

I wonder if Microsoft will shift direction back to consumer friendlier practices if more people keep swapping to Linux

Win11 is probably done for, but the next one maybe better toward the end user 🤷‍♀️

I’m never going back and it does suck to see what became of it. Win11 was my final straw

It’s kinda funny reading an article where someone glazes Windows as much as this community does for Linux (Mint btw)

It’s obviously biased, but it’s also still surprising to me that the author’s recommendations for incompatible devices were “buy new supported hardware” or “get fucked”. No mention of swapping OS (but that’s “windowslatest.com” for ya).

Even worse than bus factor, it’s really easy to compromise when no one double checks your work:

I’m mainly responding to your quote about new things being against the established order and my view of NuTrek is extremely biased since I mainly get my information from RedLetterMedia but do you think NuTrek ackchyually can sit on its own laurels?

I did watch Picard’s 3 seasons and I think it highlighted pretty well the problems with NuTrek:

• retconning established lore to the extreme (slavery vis a vis androids is cool with the federation, earth has super drug problems)
• gratuitous violence (I was disgusted watching the equivalent of SAW with the Borg torture porn)
• action action action (can’t have any philosophy, gotta have fast paced machinegun phaser shootouts)

I could probably come up with more issues, but it’s been a bit and I’m never rewatching Picard. NuTrek is a far cry from the old thinking man’s trek and is really watered down.
