My biggest complaint is that there should be a visual indication of this process. Many users are utterly unaware it is going on.

Just need one more upgrade....

I just need a bigger 3d printer.

Remember this is an early version: they plan to optimize the number of rotors... it's crazy to think but at some point they may be able to get it down to 2!

Nonono that's an air train.

This was already established with the gameboy vs... everything else.

Ancient hardware. Complete market dominance.

To my knowledge the biggest benefit for this mod was emulation on the Xbox getting a performance boost. In most cases there are far better platforms to run those emulators on now.

I vaguely recall there being an uplift in fps on some titles - but in general it was a cool thing that had limited uses.

Private investment firms are already dropping inventory. It's sad to say but housing has become a pump and dump somehow. The unfortunate thing is the people who get rugged will end up being people who bought from them.

Was making a comparison to TiVO and old cable/satellite programming 😂

Yeah, it's more a commentary on the whole current 'country' lifestyle. Texan? Buy all the things with a single star on it or you aren't Texas enough. Southern? Get that truck. Gotta lift it. Biggest tires you can find. It's all just the most degenerate capitalism with a dixie wrapper on it.

I look forward to when someone releases a box to record the screen or shows you want to watch on Netflix just in case the rights gets pulled before you get the chance to watch it. Added benefit is they can make it skip ads too. Gotta have a catchy name... like... NeVO for Netflix Video On(demand)

The majority of the southern states identity (not that part) has long since been reduced to a caricature of itself.

All being a southerner requires now is access to your divine guide: whatever the most recent pop country album is. It's just advertisement set to country tunes.

If anything I'd say the least free group in America is your typical 'country boy.'

I'll be honest: I think this only made the news because it wasn't league of legends. I was shocked.

...until morale improves? Dually noted lol.

I said as much multiple times.

The point of that statement was to highlight that it is possible to construct something that does not allow for consolidation and corruption of power... which it did. Your view simply was looking at present day examples which, as you correctly identified, do not work. That doesn't mean nothing can work however ... which is why I disagreed.

It's a fun mental exercise to what if and try to construct something that could work. Can't tear something down without considering what rebuilding it would look like.

I disagree. It's about execution - creating an environment that is resistant to corrosion. A standing force can absolutely be viewed in that manner - which is why it cannot be a single static standing force.

The UN is the right idea but it needs teeth. And it needs the teeth to be double sided. If boots are on the ground peacekeeping they should be without bias and secondary interest. An attack on a peacekeeper has no guarantee of the creed nor country of origin of that keeper.

Peacekeeping should be like a draft. Every country that participates must provide and maintain a set number of rolling participants. These people will serve and train initially in humanitarian deployments with others.. half way through their 'term' they should be moved to peacekeeping duties. This is idealized but would be good for both building trust amongst peacekeepers and goodwill towards them. This solves the military portion (roughly) - I have a lot of thoughts on this and believe it to be solvable... it just won't be. No country gets to benefit therefore it has no merit.

That covered the military side... when talking about the economic side: the peacekeepers (let's say un for simplicity) carry the ability to (by vote) censure a country and cut it off from direct trade / support. At that time any trade is then routed through the UN and it becomes the middleman. This allows economic pressures to be precisely controlled on an area. Once that country falls in line, by majority vote, operations are restored. Once again this is idealized and has no obviously advantaged party ... so it has no merit and will never occur.

Basically everyone is equally held accountable and equally invested. Of course this means everyone gets a seat at the table and everyone gets one vote. I'm certain we can already see why this has 0 chance of ever happening. Those in power seek to keep it - very few will willingly give some away.

Baggy means cargo pants and moar pockets. Yesssss. Also don't forget about the mid-phase between the two: bell-bottoms and boot cuts. I forget when they show up but I feel like we are due soon...

For the afflicted? No.

For us as a species? No.

For capitalism? God yes.

Thin people consume the least. Once we stop growing we stop needing new clothes. Obesity changes this. Clothes wear out faster, you need new sizes. Obesity leads to depressive states where people buy more to feel better. Speaking of more: eat more! Have some sweets to feel better!

Be bold. Be beautiful. Be you (for us!)

Clothing stores and food chains done with you? Guess you are broken now...

Welcome to the medical system you will now need to rely on to function and stay alive! Till death do we part.

Obesity is an epidemic and it's too profitable to actually do anything about. They don't care about you, your feelings, or your health. You are literally livestock to these corporations that you think are caudling you and your way of life. This is a wake up call.

Obesity is difficult to conquer. It requires change and persistence. It requires support. Not everyone can achieve a 'healthy ideal' but everyone can do better.
