I mean... that's putting a lot of faith in the dishwasher to work properly every single time you do it. I don't know if I've got enough trust in the 1995 beige "landlord special" under my counter right now.
Just like cars, it depends on age and condition. Usually tens of millions, but it's all about how well the ship has held up, how many passengers it can accommodate, and if it has special features like being rated for ice.
This is seriously one of my favorite things about the Fediverse... someone decided to make their own experience of it and build a platform... now it's a thing.
The American-Australian science fiction TV series "Farscape." The themes and characters were all so beautiful, the cast was talented, the writing was great, the season/series long plots were all tight with great pay offs. The story is kind of "Lost in Space" if it was set in a galaxy built out of the cantina scene from "Star Wars: A New Hope." The Jim Henson Workshop built all the creatures for it and the CG effects actually hold up pretty well.
One character, a priestess named Pa'u Zotoh Zhaan (played by Virginia Hey), was the emotional heart of many an episode. One episode in particular, she's literally debating a god who has come to collect the soul of another character. She chides the deity saying something to the effect of "as a priestess I have long ago come to terms with different peoples, different beliefs. But all must recognize that life values life." As a teenager, that really stuck with me. Really shaped how I see the world.
(not an ad, but the whole series is on YouTube, "free with ads" if anyone wants to check it out.)
The podcast, "Behind the Bastards" did an excellent series on Reagan and the damage he did. I believe they referenced this book quite a few times in their research.
My work switched to a double ply... instantly the toilets got clogged. GM blamed it on women's sanitary products. I have half a mind to lead our own little protracted people's war against him until the plumbing gets fixed.
Countries and their governments are never cut and dry.
If we're getting technical (which I hope we are) then the United States of America is a presidential, constitutional representative democratic-republic that permanently federates and holds legal supremacy over a collection of similarly stylized democratic-republic states (along with other colonies, territories, and possessions). All of this is technically correct, but it isvery hard to fit on a bumper sticker unlike the flashy fascist conservative think tank sound bite of "wE'rE a RePuBLiC nOt A dEmOcRaCy."
Anything Aldi brand, Wal-Mart store brand is the same price usually, but Aldi just seems to have better quality. Really it's easier for me to list what I won't ever buy store brand: toilet paper, laundry detergent, and hot sauce.
