You keep posting this graph with no context, but the euro has also had very high inflation.

This is bad faith and you know it, that's why you aren't actually discussing it, just posting a misleading graph.

USD had 141% cumulative inflation since 1990

Euro has 115%

The pound has 143%

Brazil ( a member of brics) has nearly 1000% since 1994 (25 million percent from 1990 like the other countries.

China, arguably the biggest contender for stability in brics has 160% inflation.

Why aren't you including charts for all of these countries? And why are you using a chart showing inflation values from before USD was used as the international currency in 1944 with the bretton woods conference, without demonstrating why that is important and what it means? Given that this is in the context of global currencies.

Isn't the first graph just general inflation? What does purchasing comparing purchasing power mean in this scenario? And how does it compare to other currencies like the pound or the euro?

Also the conclusion of the second article you linked seems to indicate that no other large scale currencies are replacing the shares of the US dollar, instead things like gold and diversified currencies are taking up this space, those don't take the place for international trade.

Neither of these seem like a death knell for USD to me.

It's most likely a private school.

I think there are a lot of other factors in that case.

The biggest reason why it's rare to see regular cars get to a million miles is because they don't get driven as much. At the average of 14k miles per year it would take 71 years for someone to drive 1 million miles. Since it takes so long to get there, many non engine related issues start taking hold like rust and obsoletion.

Good point and I missed that in the original post.

It does appear to be a similar situation with the UK though, only with pensions and other funds.

Damn, you just SLAMMED me.

Yes, honestly the fact that 'youtube music' is literally just a different frontend for YouTube drives me nuts, it goes both ways, the YouTube app for TV doesn't have proper features either, it's unclear if you are getting the music or video version and the most egregious of them all imo, on the TV app, you can't freaking browse for a different song while music is playing, you have to stop the song to go to the search bar.

It's important to note that most of the money borrowed by the US govt is in the form of bonds to its own citizens, and the interest paid is to those citizens.

Do you take a boat to go overseas?

Cli doesn't make much sense to me either when the *arr suite has a well documented rest API already.

They don't convey the same information.

Infinity isn't really an amount of something.

The bridge just creates imap/smtp servers, so you should be able to add it to thunderbird on Android.

You don't need to mail in to research candidates.

At least in my state, you can just see who is on the ballot weeks and weeks ahead of time.

They are saying that you have all day to vote, not that you get 16 hours of time off.

Voting on election day can take way more than five minutes, however, in most cases, you have weeks to vote.

You can do it without all the bishops too: 6bk/7b/8/8/8/8/1B6/K7 b - - 0 1

But you still need two light squared bishops for black.

You could make it happen with a white bishop and a pawn though: 6bk/7b/8/8/8/8/1B6/K7 b - - 0 1

Yes, this is the critical flaw in this whole ordeal.

Comedians make tasteless jokes all the time and they generally get forgiven since they often exist as boundary pushers. A comedian makes 100 jokes that ride the line and push a little bit, and 1 of them was too far or bombs or whatever, no biggie, live and let live.

But going to this event, at this venue, with this crowd is not the same scenario. It sets a tone and he even mentions it in his set, that he doesn't normally play to a room full of grandmas and babies or whatever.

With docker it's quite easy (assuming you are familiar with docker)

But docker / containerization is a skill that becomes really really helpful to learn if you are interested in this type of thing.

I'll take the L.. but I'm gonna blame it on sleepyheadedness, lol.

Something to consider is that any given instance can be a bad actor and do whatever the hell they want.
