Parent told me I shouldn't hold it against my older sibling who abused me when I was younger because the older sibling also remembered my birthday and got me toys when I was younger

After you play enough Geoguessr you learn what every part of america looks like. The green forested hills and american pickup trucks everywhere give away the approximate region; the Weigels (found on a list of USA gas station chains) is apparently unique to one city; and the Executive Inn makes the last pinpointing step much easier.

Do you have a pet? If you're able to keep a pet, they're great distractions from the self-inflicted psychological damage from consuming corporate social media

For those who don't know, there is a big solar storm tonight. Btw, where approximately were these pics taken at?

Legit question for rural Americans - how do I kill the 50-100 feral raccoons that run into my yard within 3-5 mins while my small kids play

Let me guess, the inevitable class action over 13th and 14th gen processors is about to get shifted off to some split off company which will conveniently go bankrupt while Intel continues business as usual?

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It did quite well when it came out, and it felt like there was potential for sequels

I don't think Makefile and CMake should count as programming languages in this context. There are a few weird names on the list, but these are high up the list only because they're glue for C/C++ projects

Begin to develop and publish cost efficient free open source designs for scientific laboratory equipment that can be made by anybody, so that scientific laboratories are able to do science without spending hundreds to thousands of dollars on a machine that rocks left and right or shakes in a circle.

"Somebody think of the poor banks"

to prevent all money from ending up in a single party’s hands.

I beg to differ.

Example: suppose you own property, gold, a business, or something else with tangible value. When inflation causes cash to decrease in value, your assets are safe. They have intrinsic value.

Example: suppose you're living a lifestyle where you can't afford assets like that. Maybe even living paycheck to paycheck. You make the same money, and you can buy less with each paycheck. You can't start buying assets when money keeps getting tighter.

I think it's pretty simple to see inflation only hurts the have-nots, while others are protected by the value of their accumulated assets.
