For what it’s worth, I picked up Radio Australia on shortwave from Denver on a recently-restored tube radio (albeit a higher-end one). It was surprisingly clear too!

Ask anyone who works support how fucking stupid the general population
They’re going to have a huge selection bias though - much of the “general population” will start elsewhere with things like documentation or brains.
I can understand if you want to call any kind of Fiat currency “fake money” - doesn’t mean I think it should be abandoned in favor of some arbitrary metal or whatever, but I can understand it.
That said, any kind of currency works when it’s standardized. Obviously it will be regionalized by country or whatever. Making up multiple cryptocurrencies as alternatives to what we have now slides us in the direction of a barter system (“I don’t take Bitcoin, you’ll have to get that converted to Ethereum. Oh, BTC is down against that? Sucks to suck!”)
And let’s say the cryptobros get their way and we end up with (whatever crypto you choose) as a standard currency for the country/world/universe. Who would benefit most from that, and why should they? The way I see it, the early adopters would live like kings and if you didn’t gamble on the right crypto early, you better hope you can get something for your assets, including the cash of today.
I forgot about that! And most songs sound like ass when you hear it over a phone, especially before whatever they did in the last decade to make voice calls more clear
You know what would make it better? If we had dozens of them!
I don’t think that’s going to be an unpopular opinion around here. Maybe a little tricky in the logistics of distinguishing between an artist and influencer and finding an artist who you like and can pay for a phone background, but other than that you’re not going to find many Lemmings saying “no, pay an influencer!”
Remember when people paid for ringtones? Doesn’t mean it isn’t stupid, especially as a subscription, but people do stupid things and other people take advantage.
The problem is, I don’t believe it’s at a minute-by-minute level of granularity. If you’re working several hours a day at tipped minimum, and the rest making well above minimum after tips, repeat the above daily and average at minimum wage for the pay period… That’s good enough.
Honestly, if Twitter were rebuilt from the ground up, name and all, I could see people moving to it pretty quickly. Like, does anyone (real people. Not bots, not Elon, but real people) actually like X?
How is “collateral in major purchases” and “secure billions in loans” supposed to be any different?
Gawd, I love visiting Taos. Not sure I could live there but it’s such a cool place. I live in Denver, and when my friend visited from Saskatchewan, Canada I wanted to show her the most un-Canadian things I could think of. We ended up staying in Taos for a couple nights and visited Taos Pueblo. It was a good choice.
It’s not the best comic, but I at least understood it once I learned it’s about circumcision.
every employer should be prepared to make accomodations for any qualified employee who may have a disability. We don’t have that
Employers are required to make reasonable accommodations for disabilities. Not every position/disability combination necessarily has a reasonable accommodation that can be done (a quadriplegic probably couldn’t be a baggage handler, for example) but I think you realize that with your “qualified” employee qualifier
Accept the carve out for prisoners, not sure what’s up with that
You don’t have to accept it 😉
The FBI is flagged (notified) as Elon Musk does something stupid.
Well you see, it was the state that let her die. That’s what everyone wanted all along!
Replace ‘major government contractor’ with Elon Musk.
It is a shit headline though.
If everything is running on renewables, cool. Until then, there’s still the opportunity cost.
I think the point is, it would be nice to know which books are being put back up (seems like a pretty basic thing if you’re going to make a post like this) but OP made it about as hard as possible to see any but 1-2
The same government that has no authority over them because, uh, reasons
