This guy lives on the street behind me. He even has one of those garage projector things with the trump 2024 logo on it that he has up every night and a trump flag for each window of his car.

This is a boomer Facebook tier meme

Somehow this was funnier to me before figuring out the punchline. I thought it was just some weird absurdist style.

Actually disappointing it's just another boring political joke

The thing is that there are different target groups here that seem to disconnect. The gamers and tech dudes who want/have all the latest hardware and want to play every game maxed out aren't the people affected, yet somehow they're the ones who chime in for these discussions.

My low end thinkpad from 2013 doesn't need windows on it for any reason, so why bother being offended that it now can't have a supported version?

Isn't Edge also chromium?

It does make sense from a payment processing standpoint. It doesn't make sense to spend more money on creating the transaction than is actually being sent.

I've always said the letters and was surprised when I heard someone say 'gooey' when I entered college.

Still don't like it.

It would seem so. Maybe I should have specified that I like the show myself too.

It's meant for man-children. Man-childens show.

"Maybe I live in the future..."

Damn Trump must've won then if future people are somehow more ignorant.

Sorry brother, not my problem. I was born well after those events occurred and so did these people.

Solving the problem of having an advantage based on race is not going to be solved by giving "the right" people an advantage based on race.

Economic factors should be the most weighted if any advantage is needed to be given.

Damn, someone should go back and tell my teen self that bad words aren't allowed.

I am a fucking disgrace.

As someone who lives in Texas and watches the biggest trucks be driven by the worst drivers on the road, I agree with the extra license bit. I also believe they should only be allowed to park in specifically designated spots, considering how often they don't fit in a parking spot and block parts of parking lots.

People downvoting this comment are just mad that you're right.

That depends on a lot of factors as well, a lot of fast food isn't made to order and some can be created ahead of time if you're expecting a lot of orders to come in. Fries, burger patties, some other fried goods like chicken fingers can be held for a little while without them going bad. There's always the chance that the people working the kitchen may have had the smaller order on hand but needed to make some fresh things for the larger order.

As someone who worked in an understaffed fast food restaurant for like 3 years... No, going inside doesn't make your order faster. From my experience, orders get made in chronological order of when they were placed. You may be able to place your order quicker (if you're lucky there's enough staff to take an in-store order while there's people in the drive through) but you will probably still wait about the same since the food can only be made so fast, and the few people have to splits their attention even more.

If it's a normally staffed restaurant then you might have luck, but usually long wait times in the drive through aren't because the drive through itself is slow... Excluding the random people who pull up with the good ol', "can I get a uuuuuhhhhhhh...."

I think the way your commenting is wrong.

Are you including the fact that $100,000 in the 1950s is more than $1million after accounting for inflation?

According to some quick googling, $1,300,000 is the modern equivalent of $100,000 in 1950. That would put you in the top 5% earners (and very nearly in the top 1%). According to the IRS, the top 5% contribute about 65% of the tax burden.

The top 25% make up about 90% of contributions, but that starts around $70,000 annual income.

Seems like everyone agrees that Netflix and the writers behind the show weren't following the source material very well and were making a lot of bad decisions in terms of show direction.

Cavill is known to want to keep things close to the source material. It seems implied that the "showrunner" and writers were against that attitude, so when he started pushing back, he gets called a misogynist and g*mer for trying redirect the show.

Sounds to me like film industry bullshit and trying to redirect the narrative from someone wanting the show to stay accurate to him being misogynistic simply because he was contradicting a woman.

Ah yes, and when it no go it no go until go.
