  • If the vice mayor tells them to organize, it qualifies as "well regulated" I suppose.

  • They even bought TV space. Apart from meeting apps, I'm not sure if I ever saw any other online network advertise on TV. Maybe Facebook did years ago, but I don't think so.

  • You have made an enemy for life!

  • "revolt" lol.

    There's mild grumbling from people who overwhelmingly seem to say they'll remain faithful to the cult until death.

  • All the productivity gains in the past have helped us reduced the work load so much, there's no reason AI shouldn't...
    Wait, that never happened, only people forcefully getting reductions in work time have ever gotten results.

    Also it's still not clear whether AI makes any sense or not. Yes, I know it is useful to some, but once you consider all the externalities (which nobody ever does, because "not my problem"), it might not be such a great deal.

  • They could have AI on a floppy that faxes generated images.

  • then feed on them

  • From what I knew it's because you bought an even number, kept one (that's the important part) and offered the (now odd) bouquet. When your flower had wilted, you knew you could offer another one.

  • You think the rest of the planet is like the US. It actually isn't. It's more like 4% know it that way.

  • From there to the white bread made with a dozen chemical stabilizers, acid regulators and raising agents as they are sold in the supermarket is just the result of refining the process

    Or there's just, you know normal bread, flour, water, yeast and salt. You don't need all that extra crap.

  • Because they tend to bump into things an awful lot.

  • Same here. Or they would be if they made 3 cigarette packs.

  • With only 5 beers per hour, he's obviously going to be thirsty.

  • For reference, this is the legal definition in France (which still allows for some shitty chocolate BTW) :

    Chocolat :

    a) Désigne le produit obtenu à partir de produits de cacao et de sucres contenant, sous réserve du point b, pas moins de 35 % de matière sèche totale de cacao, dont pas moins de 18 % de beurre de cacao et pas moins de 14 % de cacao sec dégraissé.

    Rough translation:
    Chocolate is the product obtained from cocoa and sugars which shall contain no less (although see point b) than 35% of dry cocoa solids including 18% cocoa butter and 14% dry degreased cocoa.

    Point b covers specialty chocolates, such as guanduja, etc.

    Edit: better formatting

  • Is anything, really?
