then why have any consumer protections? and why have a minimum wage?
They are just going to make up for it with higher prices right? Let’s make min wage $1 so we can all enjoy low prices. right?
You are playing into their hands

Black woman: she probably deserved it
White woman: poor girl she had a future!
We just let anybody have a gun these days
I say that as a firearm owner and manufacturer. Anytime somebody asks me about my guns I explain to them how any 13-year-old could have done the same thing and how are gun laws are completely broken
You can be pro gun in pro regulation at the same time, fuck all these false dichotomies
If you truly believe this you should be training with firearms. Go far enough left and you get your guns back
There is billions of dollars in preventing this. Amazon has an entire fleet of people hired for the sole purpose of stopping unionization, which is illegal but they get away with it because power.
This is what happens when money and power write our laws. First step is to get money out of politics. No more millionaires representing people making an avg of 35k a year.
The USA is supposed to be a Country of the people, by the people and for the people.
Free market communism sounds American as fuck to me.
Free markets can exist without corporate overlords, we collectively need to stop believing the Capitalism vs Communism false-dichotomy. Hybrid systems are the future, any other pure system devolves into slavery.
I’ve been dreaming of a future where Uber, DoorDash, etc are devoid of any corporate organization. Developers, drivers and support staff are the only human workers, the rest is organized by a complex, but open source, program.
No investors, no shareholders, every cent goes to the workers. Wages are higher in prices are lower because we aren’t paying five VPs a million dollars a year or sending all our profits to the shareholders.
I think advances in computing and AI could actually make this possible. If only greed didn’t run the world it might be doable
I want free market capitalism that works for us. What we have now if slavery with extra steps
$20 at Walmart! I’m kicking myself for casting from my phone for so many years. Android TV is objectively better and you can still cast to it
Combine it with sonarr, radar, jackett and qBitTorrent and it’s incredibly easy to get a new show or movie
I feel like a wizard being able to add a movie to jellyfin for my mom in minutes
Also love that new episodes auto download!
The Android TV one is really good IMO
That’s not true, people regularly get a decade in jail for growing cannabis in prohibition states
You can literally beat your wife nearly to death and get less time
The only reason it is kept illegal is to keep our prisons filled
my government gave me a loan at 6.8%. The amount I have paid into it is the same as the original principle amount, I still owe 80% of it because of the interest. I am making 2x the average American and am still on a hamster wheel of the capitalist death cult. I will never own anything at this rate
The only people not thinking about money are those who are privileged by wealth.
Some of us paid for our own school, car, etc. some had a $100k head start. Willing to bet you are in that second group.
If people care about these things why are so few people talking about it? Why are we whining about flavors and pop stars so much instead?
It’s cool that you don’t have to worry about the future, but some of us want our children to not be slaves
They have freedom to do as they please, but whining about it does about as much as whining about blueberry flavor.
We aren’t saying you can’t be pissed, we are saying it is completely stupid that you are pissed and there is nothing you can do. There are far more things to be worried about in this country. We are eating ourselves alive, life expectancy is dropping, suicide rate and overdose rate is climbing, our jobs are being given to foreign countries and robots, no one owns anything anymore.
I’m starting to believe people whine about these pointless things in order to avoid confronting the more complicated and deeply rooted issues we have.
Exactly, playing on people’s ignorance like current talk show on-the-street segments do. The joke was not that they thought women shouldn’t be able to vote… It is just humorous to hear people say they are anti-sufferage not understanding what theyre saying.
It’s like asking people if they are afraid of dihydrogen monoxide in their water…
got myself a free spool a while back! unfortunately shipping cost as much as a kilo from amazon lol
It was good filament, but honestly not enough to make me buy it over others
1min30sec for every color change. Multiply that by hundreds of color changes and it adds up!
I am starting to see why people usually print whole plates full of multicolor prints. It’s the same amount of color changes, but more way more efficient.
Yeah it’s not the prettiest lol. This is 75% size, and 0.25mm layers, which doesn’t help. (I just wanted to shorten print time)
I had to use Prusa Slicer because of the custom GCode features, so my settings there are not perfect yet. It also isn’t controlling the aux fans properly like Creality slicer.
My normal 1 color benchies are 22 minutes and absolutely perfect, using my finely tuned Creality Slicer profile.
It seems society has to swing that pendulum as far to either side as possible every time.
Men the best! Women the best, men evil! Women evil, Men the best!
humans are so fucking stupid, collectively. we just repeat patterns over and over and over
