  • Just as a feature of inflation the numbers that represent the wealth held by millenials will almost certainly eclipse that held by previous generations. But also thanks to inflation the actual value change represented by that larger number is sweet FA. Everything is just more expensive.

  • It's pretty much exactly what I was looking for. I used to buy flagship phones but figured I didn't really need all that just to browse the internet on the toilet. But I also wanted something that wasn't so low powered that it lagged during regular operation like a lower cost LG I had purchased before. So far it's fulfilling that purpose very well.

  • They only thought they moved away from RSS feeds. A whole bunch of the internet is built on Wordpress which publishes an RSS feed by default at website.url/rss or website.url/feed. Which means a shitload of sites are running feeds even if they don't advertise it (or realize it).

  • “Eligible” you note skeptically? Yes. Unfortunately, there are a ton of imposed legal restrictions defining when, who, and how we do this. So while our goal is to give all redditors the same access to stock as institutional investors (why should they have all the fun?), our lawyercats can confirm we must follow specific rules explained below.

    Really angling for a certain demographic, huh?

  • Are there no laws about public officials accepting gifts from the community there? Or, you know, bribery? I've had public service jobs a lot less important than that and I'd have had a big headache accepting a $25 gift card from a community member let alone an additional yearly salary.

  • I mean, sure. But it's not like that's the only bias. What are the chances it was going to pick two attractive, seemingly well to do people and not two plain farmers or shepherds or something like that? Or people of very different ages or different heights, etc.

    It's not choosing entirey randomly but it isn't showing us anything that couldn't have possibly existed.

  • OP probably assumes it's impossible that a black person might have been born in Scotland in 1820 despite the Atlantic slave trade being in full swing for centuries by that point making this entirely feasible.
