Hahaha

It was fun for a couple of laps yea but the pack quickly spread out

But with Max starting 6th today the race should be a bit better at least.

Not leading but very much side by side

Russell was completely behind Piastri

Which conversation? I usually have the sky commentary. The F1TV is so hard to hear.

This sprint is gonna be fire and I think the race tomorrow is going to be even better. It sucks that the championship is already decided but Max is Max and he will do everything he can to win.

Better late than ever to have some actual racing this season

He is just being pedantic and downright ignoring the people that actually replied to his question. So he is clearly not arguing in good faith. Downvote is more than justified

And now you know why it’s Israel’s fault that so many people join Hamas. Congrats.

In my country we have a saying:

“Those who speak like this, do not have a stutter”. Brilliantly put.

Fully agreed. It’s very telling. They get REALLY pissed and defensive.

You know lemmy is better than Reddit when a post about Greta isn’t filled with people that feel personally attacked by a girl that is just trying to make the world a better place.

That always pissed me off so much.

Nah I would have found that very much Ok as I or course what Hamas did and does is completely inhumane.

It was basically a lot of different ways of saying that Palestinians deserved it because Hamas was voted in, not thrown out yet, or simply because they haven’t left. Just gross comments everywhere

Wtf? Even lemmy was crazy to read just a few days ago. Deranged comments everywhere in support of Israel. Plus a lot of governments support them directly as well.

You can also just not buy the game if it has micro transactions. It’s the same V logic

That quote is top notch.

Every time I see George Carlin mentioned on the web it always is a positive surprise.

Can you share a link about that?

Putting people in jail is a deterrent. You do that and rich people start thinking very hard about breaking the law like that because suddenly it’s very much not worth it. They are already rich, losing a few mil is annoying but going to jail is devastating, especially when it’s so easily avoidable.

And now the rich are paying more taxes and so you make more money. Catching and convicting people of fraud isn’t exactly cheap either, and don’t forget that not everyone will be convicted.

Yes that’s how it works. You save some money and spend it in other shit.

Also I don’t have a car just so I can go get groceries. I have a car for a multitude of other reasons and I can get groceries. Driving 5 mins to a supermarket has an insignificant cost, and if that supermarket is cheaper then you can save multiples of that.

Regarding the stuff expiring, that’s just your experience. I have the opposite. There’s plenty of non perishable shit that I can get when it’s on sale because I can carry a ton of it if I came by car. Meanwhile if I go shopping by foot and I need laundry detergent I’ll just have to get whatever they have at that time. You can save a ton of money like that.

For easily perishable food yes buying regularly is better but that also means a ton of wasted time going to the supermarket very frequently even if to get only a few items.

Dunno about twice as much but the problem isn’t housing (Portugal has a shit ton of houses). The problem is affordable housing and yes capitalism is very much to blame here.

Not in a “free market = bad” that I’m very much for in many situations but simply because it’s not profitable to build affordable housing. A vast percentage of the housing built in Portugal is for upper middle class, so everyone below that (which in Portugal is a shit ton of people) you are fucked. And even if you lived in a decent house prices have skyrocketed so much that you get kicked out if they can do that.

Capitalism by design is very much against public housing and you don’t even need to imagine how the situation would be if you had that. You can just look at Vienna and see how they are doing in that regard (spoiler: pretty fucking well compared to the rest of Europe/world).

Also from Portugal and did you really just say that the problem with immigration is that they get exploited and then everyone ELSE suffers?

I mean i think you see what’s wrong with that.

Also without immigrants Portugal would be completely fucked because all the young people are leaving the country for better jobs in Europe. Someone needs to pick up the slack otherwise it’s just old people and a couple of children.

Also Portugal has a ton of houses. We are above average in houses per capita iirc. We have a problem with salaries and an over dependence on tourism.

Not to mention that the grocery stores that are well located are usually more expensive. The cheaper options exist in less number and so it makes it less convenient or sometimes not possible at all to get to on a normal work day.

You can save a lot of money that way.

And I’m in Europe FYI.
