They've been doing this since the 2000s. I remember having to set up a proxy server at home just so I could connect to it and actually browse the Internet at school without every third site being blocked for no reason.

Can you get a liver if you were an alcoholic? Maybe he's trying to punish them? Wild speculation here.

Mine is entirely alt right "comedians" and helldivers 2. I'm pretty sure the algorithm thinks I wholeheartedly endorse the SuperEarth ideology.

Sounds like a perfect sum for one nice sports stadium for a rich team to play in.

If you look up what the Dulles brothers actually did, you'd know that naming it after a comparatively petty criminal like Trump would actually be an upgrade.

Man, where do you live where unemployment is nearly a year at 80% of your salary? When I was unemployed here in Washington, it was six months and more like 50% of my salary. And from what I understand, Washington is a lot more generous than most states.

Lots of good reasons why someone might end up in debt. I got divorced and laid off. Dog needed $2k surgery to not have a terrible quality of life. Got a terrible staph infection on my chest after losing health insurance. This all happened in a four month period. I moved to a cheaper apartment, cut off any subscription aside from internet, which I need for two of my four jobs, got a cheaper phone plan, and mostly ate rice and beans every day. Still, it's taken a year just to get back to zero.

It's remarkable how this is basically exactly where I'm at, too. I'm two months of salary away from zero.

Can we not have anything fun, Jeez! 😭😭😭

I'm not certain how easy it is to just move to Europe as an immigrant. I don't have any connection to the place. I'm addition, all my family lives here.

I teach six classes for three universities and work at a bakery three days a week. I've got it scheduled so my Tuesdays and Thursdays are absolutely insane. I'm basically teaching for twelve hours straight on those days. This is mostly made possible bwcause three of my classes are synchronous online, so I can teach them from my office at the other school. This life is not what I had in mind when I went to grad school.

This is a good way to get a visit from the mailer daemon.

Wouldn't plug in hybrids largely depend on use? If I only use gas with it twice a year, it's got to be better than if I'm commuting long enough to need the gas motor five times a week, right?

I work four jobs. I don't have health insurance. If I got sick I'd be fucked. Not surprising that people my age are dying at higher rates than in more civilized countries.

Well shit, never had that experience in all my 37 years.

It's not ethically okay to ignore it, but you're also not morally obligated to solve it, only to do your part!

They haven't. The buyer only pay sales tax, and the seller pays no tax at all. Except maybe crazy situations where it's a collectible antique that's worth way more now than when you bought it.

According to philsurvey, 80% of academic philosophers in the anglophone world are. About ten percent are agnostic and ten percent are theists.

As somebody that spent three years trying to get a job as a tenure track philosophy professor, this is very accurate.

Very likely the reasons were financial. With multiple kids, depending on how much she works, she could sue for child support/alimony if she was divorced. But if she's not divorced, he might control all the finances.
