Someone noticed it knocked out most of the Arab Spring. Remember who also owns part of Twitter?

It was barely profitable but had some one time write offs that pushed it down. It should have returned to barely profitable. But a barely profitable company can become ok profitable with small changes.

Ours sends normal texts through the emergency system. Works ok.

When it comes to person to person messaging, everyone uses what everyone else uses.

I actually like the compatible watts for light bulbs. They should absolutely also prominently list a correct measurement (I assume linens?), but I only know how bright it is based on the old watt comparison.

Just like crop frame cameras list lens lengths in full frame equivalent because that is what people understand. But they also need to lose the actual mm.

This is not far from the truth. The data shows excess savings. But it is not the middle class, at least the part making $100,000 a year or less, holding it and definitely not the poor.

My linked in account has zero value. Delete away my non-friends.

What sane person kills another human being on purpose and without cause?

Cities add efficiency. By pulling together and sharing resources, you can suddenly have nice soccer fields, insider pools for winter, or a national sports team. Also, companies are more efficient doe to a larger pool of labor. It is easier to have rewarding careers when there are many companies to choose from.

People in cities tend to output far more per person than rural areas. That is why states like CA have much higher gdp per person than states with mostly rural people, or even TX that is about average with a big mix of both.

And this leads to higher potential wages for more people. That person living paycheck to paycheck in a high cost of living area is usually building wealth much faster than the same person in a low cost of living area. Just don’t try to live there if you cannot make enough to afford it.

Is there a Mastodon alternative?

Have done it for years and have never gotten sick.

This is organized crime.

There is definitely statistical proof of this. But I would state it as a percentage of income. I have been to lavish weddings that were not an economic inconvenience for the couple.

Most small gardens are not profitable. But it is therapeutic and the food tastes better.

Semantics. If not enough people will do it then the pay is too low. Pay me a million dollars and I would move there and drive a bus.

Agree. Ocean flights are boring as well.

Windows defender is the best you can get at a reasonable price. But nothing is perfect, so don’t test fate.

Louisiana has the highest violent crime rate. It is the last state I would live in.

I just took the antennas off and plugged mine into it with a network cable. That said, I no longer do that after they replaced the router with a better one and let me pick the password.

I do not believe Tesla has self driving taxis? They are way behind the completion. Everyone else is using LiDAR while Tesla is trying to do it with cameras only.
