We're just meat bags with terrible sensory perception and reasoning skills. This is the reason I am more open to claims of "no reality" and the like. Plato's cave but no one sees the whole picture

Everything is worth what it's purchaser will pay for it; every transaction is subjective
I couldn't tell either fwiw but that's an interesting point; sounds more like a suicide method than an act of state punishment though
This idea that we need to be stricter is what led to the crime bills now under bipartisan attack
So nice you posted it twice?
Just wanted to add there's lots of factors at play besides the renters specifically
If the property is adjacent to a gentrified neighborhood but not yet pricey, the landlord can degrade service until the low income tenants leave, renovate the property, and charge new gentrified prices as well. I know of a couple buildings in the DMV area that were doing this within the last 10 years
The No Name brand is one of my favorite parts of visiting Canada. Excessive branding and flashy packaging gets on my nerves
I think workers rights has less to do with automation and more to do with forcing exploitative bosses to negotiate via collective action but what do I know
And the suggestion that one can live on a loaf of bread, using that price to extrapolate a yearly cost, it's a true worst case scenario.

How is it legal for them to regulate interstate commerce?
I couldn't; I believe I originally thought you were suggesting these companies can't be expected to exert political will/make consequential decisions for some bizarre reason
I'm not really sure what you mean by impossible
Sorting by new also usually exposes things like hijacked item or seller pages more easily
The film "Brazil" was mentioned on another comment on another story a few days ago that touched on this theme, very good movie.
Not really, ticket splitting is a thing for many americans -- it's decreasing though
I don't think it's necessarily union control related at all. From an industry standpoint it makes some sense to have a geographic center so that companies who serve the industry have a place to go and find customers, network, etc. I think in this regard it's largely a spontaneous phenomenon more than a coordinated decision. "Birds of a feather."
The other replies to this are interesting though and it's not all one thing, distributed decision making can be rationalized after the fact any number of ways
I'm just curious if you have any particular use cases you can't get the existing solutions to work with
FWIW this did happen to some indentured Europeans in the New World. I'm nevertheless surprised GP thinks that's excusable or defensible in the 21st century.
Throw in some post processing and these make good greebles/texture details
I don't understand why people are resorting to apps like signal for privacy, personally. Edit: as in there are better alternatives
So what you're saying is you want to have Nazi policemen? I don't understand what your concern is, because they would probably be incapable of performing their duties fairly
I think the difference is signal is private, no? Parler people are just airing racist and threatening shit out in the open. I would personally rather it take place in such private online places instead of in front of everyone.
His supporters were literally talking about that exact scenario in the replies
Didn't fit the perp profile police expect (race)
Why do you feel sorry for them exactly?
Arguably hiding this data until public rage inevitably boils over is worse for Facebook long term
GP describes a situation I observed working in non profit, not habitat for humanity but something similar.
They didn't have much to show for their efforts but it seems to be a popular strategy. I haven't given them my time or effort since leaving.
You can wager that the human involved with book recommendations will do a better job than an algorithm trying to show you metaphorical train derailments or car accidents 24/7
