You cannot budget your way out of poverty. "Financial literacy" is just capitalists kicking the can down the road.

“Buy now pay later” has been around for at least a decade. It wasn't ubiquitous like it is now though. I knew things were bad when I went to pay for 2 pairs of shorts and they asked me if I wanted to stagger the payments. The total cost was $40.

It makes sense when it comes to what you ingest also and your environment. Say you have allergies to particular elements, pollen for example.

Not bad advice at all.

Listen to your body as in observe your body and how it responds to activity, certain foods, medications and environments. That's good advice. There are many bad doctors out there.

I'm genuinely envious.

No Mr Officer.

I have never commited a felony.

Get a dog.

Tinker with electronics.

Play and listen to music.

Find people going through the same as you. Universities are full of homesick people.

Be grateful for the peace that comes with solitude and embrace it.

I'm okay with USB-C and a headphone jack on my laptop. The other shit is for the birds.

I haven't purchased any cheap wireless headphones, certainly not that cheap but the wireless headphones that cost $300 sound significantly worse than a pair of wired headphones that cost half as much, sometimes even less. Same for the earbuds, they tend to sound bad and aren't as comfortable.

I have never had that issue with a jackplug. Wireless headphones mean stuttering connection and one more thing with batteries that you need to manage. Also, most of the wireless headphones that I've tried have much smaller cups than the wired variety. I haven't found a pair of wireless in-ears that are as comfortable as my preferred IEMs. In general, they might be okay for movies but not for music with an overemphasis on bass that I hate. The few options that don't sound bad are wildly overpriced.

Sounds like most countries in western Europe. Germany being the worst.

You're not crazy. I feel that even when the tech is slightly better the trade offs make the overall deal worse.

More RAM but it's soldered in on laptops. More storage on phones but no micro sd slot. No headphone jacks, the overall obsession with inferior wireless audio. Streaming services suck for anything that is not a live event and I think eventually more people will realize that. Especially as they keep hiking prices. Clearnet internet has been destroyed. The gaming industry is a joke nowadays, charging full price to play betas.

800k users? How?

Arch is probably easier to install than Debian nowadays.

How many inches constitutes a "large" nowadays?

The Iraq invasion.

I don't know about immediately post 9/11 but in 2003/4 there was a lot of ill will towards Americans in Europe.

China is the best in the world when it comes to window dressing. They still have a lot of rural poverty.

The Onion/InfoWars?
