I truly hope this leads to the collapse of Chrome's sheer market dominance. Fuck Google.

Haven't watched Wolverine in a long time, although I've heard the new one with Deadpool is actually pretty good. (It's the ad on the TV)

What is that from?

That's the sad reality of it. The sadder part is that, even if it's true, his cult still won't care.

And, of course, the minor being groped won't see any justice.

Haha, I literally just watched that a few days ago. For a brief second, I saw this post and jokingly thought, "so when did Lemmy start snooping on my search history?"

But seriously, it's a really bad problem. It's crazy how widely they've spread and become such a massive pain in the ass in so many areas.

With 30-some-odd staff, apparently, lol.

From my understanding of what was in the article, the DoJ indictment has Laura Chen, founder of the company that employs him and Dave Rubin, stating that without the funding of their Russian contact, their profitability isn't enough to sustain the show and all the staff.

This is incorrect. Look into how SuperPACs get around the normal laws for donator transparency.

That is the average, not the median. The median looks a lot different (cheaper):

Some people get weirdly super pissed when you use that word. I have no idea why. I have seen multiple people freak the fuck out randomly whenever it's been mentioned out loud. They won't care about other cursewords, only "cunt" specifically, it's very strange.

They can be, sadly. It depends where you live, where you have someone buried, and what services and coffin and whatnot you get. But yeah, the funeral business in the US is pretty crazy greedy. $60k is definitely on the higher end. According to a quick Google, my state's average funeral cost is around $8k, with the total cost (including mortuary services, etc) around $20k.

I have rarely encountered places that don't accept cash. The only places I've seen signs that state no cash are smaller businesses and/or street merchants/vendors.

Regardless, I agree with the spirit of your comment. I rarely use cash anymore simply because carrying it around is inconvenient. You have to know ahead of time exactly how much something is going to cost and then when you get coins back, that's doubly more inconvenient/annoying.

Ultimately, OP's post is a little melodramatic. Gift cards are meant to be more personal, although in the specific context they wrote, it does feel a bit half-hearted ("Thanks for helping, here's a random gift card I found in my wallet that I never used!").

It's always amazed me that young voters tend to be the most unreliable voting bloc. I was a young, early-20s idealist, and I made sure to go out and vote. Hopefully they step it up this November.

Well obviously not for fish. Sounds like someone's never bought fresh pigeons from the grocery store, smh.

The SEC is the regulating body for the US stock exchange. Numerous companies on the stock exchange are heavily involved in Bitcoin. And if I recall correctly, Bitcoin is also exchanged through platforms regulated by the SEC. There are other things the SEC oversees that could be directly/indirectly related to crypto as well.

True enough. Though, Russia has adapted tactics in various domains since their initial invasion, e.g. their drone defensive/offensive tactics. Regardless, if NK is simply sending grunts to the frontline without their own senior officers and/or company commanders/sergeants, there won't be much useful combat experience to take back home to their own military.

I wouldn't think so, since Mastadon isn't inherently "owned" by any one company and doesn't rely on an advertising business strategy.

Or they did and are now enduring giving birth to a turd football.

I view it as NK getting real world combat experience. It helps both countries out. This isn't good for multiple reasons.

Did you read the article? They're suggesting he has dementia/significantly decreased mental faculties. There were 2 medical emergencies, yes, but those were done and over with and he still chose to declare he wouldn't be taking questions after all and made his staff put on his favorite playlist for the rest of the "townhall." To me, that's the sign of someone who has broken down and just straight up isn't fit to lead anyone, let alone a country (his horrible policies aside).
