My hypothesis is that the disenfranchised young men complaining that they don’t have enough money because of inflation have really just been blowing their money on online sports gambling and refuse to admit it.
It is much simpler than that. My dad watches Fox News all day nonstop. When I say all day I mean he is watching it from the time he wakes up at 6am until going to sleep and doesn’t watch anything else. It does not matter who the democrats field, Fox News will just demonize that person and their viewers will vote accordingly. He does not even agree with any traditionally conservative ideology; he is pro-choice, pro-LGBT rights, pro-union, doesn’t like tax cuts for corporations and the wealthy doesn’t agree illegal immigration is a huge problem, but he votes for Trump because he watches Fox News nonstop. The one common thread among every Trump supporter I know is Fox News.
Let it go man. Nobody cares
60% of the time his predictions work out every time
There’s a misconception that bonds are safe investments. They are not. You’re just trading one kind of risk for another. You can do the math, compare 4% and 1.5% compounding for 10 years and that’s why no one wants the bonds yielding 1.5%. Dumping 90%+ of your liquid funds into a single thing other than cash is completely insane especially when it’s not yours.
What about arrays of floating solar panels and windmills on the ocean?
That’s what scares me. Putting in all that time and taking out all those loans to find out you actually hate it.
I would actually like to be a doctor but it’s not really feasible starting down that route in my 30s
Idk, the tech seems to be accelerating rapidly to me. Where were we 5 years ago?
Lucid is a money pit for the Saudis so they have something to point to and show that they’re trying to move away from fossil fuels. You’d have to be completely insane to buy one of those things though. Especially when there are better and cheaper options without warranty risk.
I would do it but I do not have the patience to be on the phone for 30 min fighting over $10
It happens in the US too. Any site could have 1x1 iframes loaded with nude pictures of people under 18. If your IP happens to be caught up in their investigation, your computers will get seized, they’ll see you accessed the forbidden pages, and you’re basically done for, especially if you can’t afford a good attorney. Nobody is giving an accused pedophile the benefit of the doubt.
I'd have called you tinfoil crazy until police raided one of my rental properties because a tenant was suspected of dealing drugs. One of the other 3 tenants (not suspected of any crime) had a friendly pit bull about a year old, wouldn't harm anyone, which was promptly shot 3 times in the abdomen right in front of its owner as police approached the property (and died).
They're not looking to prosecute anyone (defendant is dead), presumably they're trying to recover info the could lead to more terrorists/plots
More like the $300M blunder. Eliminating all hurdles to completing a payment should be a no brainier. Ask to create an account after a purchase not before.
The Justice Department contends that the act of viewing a child porn image revictimizes the child each time the view occurs and is the basis for arguing that viewing child porn is not a victimless crime. Yet the FBI seized a server and allows such images to be downloaded and viewed thousands of times over a 2 week period. This would be like seizing the operators of an underground rape dungeon where patrons pay to rape children - and allowing such an establishment to run for 2 extra weeks to catch the patrons, regardless of any collateral damage that occurs to innocent children as a result. People would be up in arms over this. So, does viewing an image of child porn cause additional harm to the child in the image or not? Which is it? (This of course excludes instances where the viewer is paying/supporting production of the material)
