If you are able, this is a reason why it’s a good idea to have 5+ kids: spread the load among siblings for this kind of thing.

Yes please report back if it works

Biden can also pardon him on his way out.

Yes I think this is the one area where specialized DBs will win over PG

Why downvoted? Genuine question.

Is there an extension that can make it compete with TigerBeetle for transaction processing speed?

This was an overreach by the EU. Android is open source, let Epic launch their own phone, or their own Android store.

Methinks this crowd loves regulation a bit too much.

What the recent Argentinian president had proposed for his country would be a good start for the US

If you are a US business, it’s hard to escape the overly burdensome US taxes.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes, what did the fed expect?

What an insult to someone who has taken on the responsibility of raising a child. Of course they should be called parents. A man doesn’t adopt a son only to be called his “child raiser”. Stop this foolish line of thought.

It's amazing to me that people in this thread still don't understand free markets. You are free to use Android, or Amazon phone. Or Graphene. Or one of the many others.

I’m convinced SDGE is the most hated company in the country. The southeast is so much cheaper for electricity.

Yes because normally, without this absurd law, you’d just deduct employee salaries from your taxable income.

Catholic charities don't help everyone in need

Neither do state sponsored programs, we’re talking about trade offs here, and I’m saying that Id rather the money not be taken by force and incompetently redistributed just so we can wind up with more of the terrible system we have now.

Where are the Catholic charities solving the problem, then?

You mean the ones that aren’t receiving funding because the people are being taxed to hell?

I think we’re going in circles and have different ideological starting points. I’ll leave the last word to you.

I find it wild that $300 cards are the cheap

The natural consequence of printing a ton of money

I threw my 580x on an ubuntu fork a few years ago

I’ve found AMD cards to be the most stable under Linux

Is Collabora not a good product?

It wasn't done privately before

Of course it was, and still is. It’s done less privately now because the funds that would be given to private resources are confiscated before they can be given. An excellent example: Catholic charities.

That's why the government programs exist One of the stated goals, but also a reduction of the influence of religious institutions is another.

Just slink off and die' isn't really a workable alternative. This is fallacious; look at the the homeless in SanFran. That’s what our current government programs amount to.

I’d prefer this done privately as has been done before; different set of tradeoffs but ones I prefer, namely people getting options.

To each his own, I'd prefer they be taken care of by locals who actually personally care for them, know them, and are invested in their lives.

Yes this is my concern, 52k direct hires but with Medicare, Medicaid, etc the subsidy to employment in the medical space is massive.

How many of these were government jobs or government supported/subsidized?

Ah so the government got to pick winners and losers

Generally you get more of what you subsidize, so my bet is that this will lead to less porn consumption, an absolutely massive win.

So let’s call it a true 10% raise in prices, not the 50% everyone’s whining about here.

Yeah and we did just print 40% of the money supply, so I’d imagine the bulk of this is on the shoulders of the federal reserve.

This is why platforms like https://www.loor.tv/ are essential, which let you fund the tv shows you want to see, not just _all tv_ Netflix is producing.

Even in the US, at the time of the constitution, many states had state churches. It was just prevented at the federal level. So it’s entirely possible for Florida to reinstate a state church over Florida and be within it’s constitutional bounds.
