Just keep telling yourself you’re not old and soon you’ll be 45 and your back will hurt, ask me how I know…

I’d like to point out that even when this isn’t true, the “major public improvement” tends to border one, close enough that it gets cut off from the surroundings and goes into financial ruin causing others to look at the neighborhood a few years later and THEN decide its property that needs to be “improved” (gentrified)… To the point that the original inhabitants are priced out of their own family homes.
One of those “whew, they dodged a bullet… Of wait, they didn’t” times that happens quite a lot.
True, but I was talking about the bottom section of the screen shot that starts with “The company is valued at 2.5T”
60B over 9 months is about 80B over the year which is about 3% of 2.5T
Does anyone else think 3% return isn’t that spectacular? Reminder, Inflation alone in 2025 was 2.7%. They only slightly did better than breaking even.
Not going to comment on his riches, we all know Billionaires are bad for the world. Just thought those numbers were kinda bad.
As a white person, I can absolutely say that every invasion we’ve done has royally fucked up the ones we’ve invaded.
I might not be the target audience though.
Waiing for Waze to add a button to self report “lake of fire” and “lava” so I can get automatically updated routes to work.
And it works for Windows, too! Yay Linux daily driving!
I use a Mac at work and don’t have this problem. It’s mostly been my parent’s fairly new Windows 11 laptops. I can’t stand it and feel like Windows does nothing but get in the way of productivity in a work setting. Since at least Windows 7.
Sadly, the number of times I’ve had to reboot windows two or three times to fix an issue lately has been increasing. I’m so glad I’m not in IT trying to support windows 11.
Depends on how much money or oil changed hands.
ellieficent@reddthat.comtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•PBS is "the propaganda"?English
211·2 months agoIts such an insignificant amount of money to fund PBS. It’s mostly paid by donations and sponsors anyway. If they really wanted to save taxpayers money they should look elsewhere first… but thats a harder question that might rustle a few of their own feathers. Not only do they try to take the easiest route that doesn’t involve their side, but they want to make people think it’s a win. PBS isnt greasing their palms, so out it goes.
On one hand, I LOVE crossing things off my list.
But God Damn does this ice cream taste fucking awesome.
(Adds “finish quart of ice cream” to list and proceeds to cross it off)

I hear chicks dig dudes with money… well, maybe not all chicks, but the kinds that’d double up on a dude like him, at least.
You had me until the last paragraph… The Orange man and MAGA in general don’t care about communism anymore. The government owns part of Intel now, his best friends are Putin and Xi, he’s pushing changes like the government controls all the means of production. Communism is hip now it seems.
Maybe if you call them socialists? But only because their base doesn’t really understand what it means, they just hate it but secretly want it when it benefits them.
Now it has the kitchen sink AND vulnerabilities… and an asshole CEO.
As someone who managed it for a while, WP as a platform isn’t horrendous, but there are definitely better alternatives depending on what you need to accomplish.
Sadly it’s still a defacto standard.

58·7 months ago“Replacing high fructose corn syrup with cane sugar doesn’t make sense,” said Corn Refiners Association President and CEO John Bode. "Replacing high fructose corn syrup with cane sugar would cost thousands of American food manufacturing jobs, depress farm income, and boost imports of foreign sugar, all with no nutritional benefit.”
Corn farmers heavily voted for Trump, but according to them they’re weak and stupid anyway, so now we just wait for the cost of Coke to jump due to importing sugar. ‘Course, he never said anything about Pepsi, so people just flock to the much cheaper Pepsi products and Coke goes under! Brilliant!
