It’s also very human to “withhold information to make a good first impression” - Lemmino

China creates more orbital debris than every other country combined, so they had this coming. If we’re going to experience Kessler syndrome, it’ll be because of them.

It’s not but people tend to vote for a couple of large parties, even in countries with pluralist voting systems. What we’re seeing now is half the votes going to the far right and the other half to a left that’s careless with the currency. They need a new left ideology, honestly. Protectionism isn’t the way.

Honestly, when the alternative is going back to peronism with 200% inflation, I can empathize with that choice. Personally I would have voted for a smaller party that aligned better with me but I can understand their fear of going back to peronism.

I think that article is not well researched. Devaluing the currency causes inflation (in Argentina’s case), not the opposite. In fact, Milei did not sufficiently devalue the peso, because devaluing further would have caused more inflation. It’s exactly because he did not sufficiently devalue that the peso is now in crisis.

I don’t know about the other ones, but under Milei housing listings have become cheaper, when adjusted for inflation.

I had fault in my server this summer and my local bitwarden app wouldn’t work without the connection. Same in my laptop, if the connection is blocked by the firewall it doesn’t let me load the vault at all.

A flotilla is a small fleet, are you saying there are several fleets heading to Gaza?

I saw a video on this by Ann Reardon a few months ago, it explained what happened well: https://youtu.be/Q_G6y3L0oQI

I’m in Lisbon and right before the power went out the lights flickered like crazy for a good second.

I would sleep just as well if Shaq’s top marginal rate was 90%.

You could learn this internet if you decided to.

Yep, when stocks start going south, the first thing to do is lower wages/fire people and the second is heighten prices.

People shouldn’t be under the idea that problems in wall street mean the rich are becoming poor. It means the rich will be less rich and the poor will lose their jobs and suffer higher prices. The GFC was proof that wall street fucks up and the rest of the population finds out.

There were anti Trump republicans, some even voted to impeach him, but they’ve all been purged or are in the process of being purged. Because now the Republican party isn’t about an ideology as much as it is a messianic cult around Trump.

I was wondering if they would ever add it just this week, it’s a welcome addition
