If people think that an IPO means we’re going to … push prices up, push the margins up, push down the feature sets, the only answer we can give is, watch us. Keep watching," he said. “Let’s look at it in 15, 20 years’ time.”

What a fucking lame answer.

RasPi was cool at one time, but that time has long since passed.

It really has, for most uses there are better boards

Paywalled?

Regardless, I reject the premise.

UPS will lay off whomever they can. They don’t terminate people according to political ideology.

Yeah, I’m so weary of this argument but you’re dead right.

If I and all my neighbours close our curtains then we won’t see all the garbage, rats, dead bodies, and other refuse piling up in our street, and then congratulate ourselves at the lovely community we share.

It’s absurd. As though everyone expects that corporate encroachment into the fediverse is going to come with a big sign that says “threads” or some such.

There are special rules for labelling for alcohol given the obvious risks of consuming more than you realised.

Here alcohol must show the percentage alcohol content, but alcohol designed to be consumed as-is (without mixing) also states the number of standard drinks.

The number of standard drinks is the same as the “amount of alcohol” you mentioned.

Other ingredients like sugar aren’t shown as a percentage because manufacturers don’t want to show it, and it’s not required by law because although there are risks of excess consumption, they’re not “immediate risk to life” type risks.

Not really, you can’t criticise it for not being like UBI while saying it’s similar to UBI even if it does not purport to be UBI.

This isn’t really true.

We generally don’t experiment with economic policy because it’s not practical.

The main impediment to UBI is not supporting data, but political will. Voters are so used to punishing poor people that UBI just doesn’t resonate with the voting public. Of course that will change with the continuing encroachment of automation.

Additionally UBI is not all or nothing. You could increase it over time. If 20% of average salary is the objective, then start with 1% this year and increase it by 1% each year for the next 19 years. It will take 20 years to dismantle the other welfare systems anyway.

This was my initial reaction also, but taking a closer look the article doesn’t say anything about UBI. This is not a UBI experiment.

Honestly let’s have some dignity and not buy into this vapid pretentious idiocy.

I’ve never seen the appeal. Paying more for shittier stuff and waiting longer.

Get to know your local green grocer and Butcher and pay the least for the best stuff.

Just gonna one up you here bro, my mrs is due this week too, but she has a son and a daughter on board!

It’s gonna be a big week I think.

The warm up with the sons didn’t disappoint but it seems like ivanka is less likely to perjure herself.
