I don’t want to spend any time with my in-laws and I’m over 40.

There’s a term for this. A “self-fulfilling prophecy”
I live in a decidedly middle class area and people driving golf carts around is super common. Some communities even have their own golf cart paths to the local grocery stores, and those stores have dedicated gold cart parking.
It’s very common at least in the US south east.
I could see why you were banned from reddit.
You definitely could use AI to code, the catch is you need to know how to code first.
I use AI to write code for mundane tasks all the time. I also review and integrate the code myself.
Honestly, that wouldn’t even be so bad if the majority of them weren’t dicks.
I totally agree that the current institutions that are US police forces are terrible at best, having a police force in general is needed. Unless you’re talking about anarchy which while interesting, is a completely different conversation.
They said store so I assume they work in retail. Why would a retail employee need a company email? And not allowing people to plug in USB sticks into an intranet (especially with POS machines) is just standard operating procedures.
I suspect you don’t have kids? Most schools require a laptop (usually Chromebooks). What do you do then other than parental controls?
I have nipples Greg, can you milk me?
I second the multi-monitior comment. I absolutely love my fold and I think that’s a great analogy.
It’s hard to say it’s worth the money though. I personally think it is, but I wouldn’t recommend most people spend $1500+ on a phone in general unless they have a really specific use case.
I have a Pixel 9 Fold and I absolutely love it. I don’t think I can ever go back to a regular phone.
That said, the fingernail thing isn’t a myth. I have a “scratch” (more like an indent) where I tried to clean something off the screen with my fingernail. It’s not bad and just like the fold, it’s only visible in certain lights, so it doesn’t bother me but you definitely have to be more careful with the inner screen than the outer. Though I suspect it’s the built in screen protector, not the actual screen.
The new law requires either a birth certificate or passport to register to vote. A driver’s license or state issued ID isn’t good enough.
Lots of people don’t have passports (and they can take a LONG time to get) and don’t have updated birth certificates (mostly women since they’re the ones primarily to change their name).
I considered it until I saw the price was $100
While I agree with most of what you said, I think you are underestimating the huge cultural differences between NJ, CA, and TX. They very much feel like entirely different countries. Very big differences in culture, linguistics, religion, etc.
USA -> States is very similar to EU -> member countries. I understand that within the EU, member countries have their own concept of “states” that are very similar to the US, but I don’t believe most EU countries prioritize local regions over their country as much as the US does. Keep in mind, Europe as a whole is only slightly bigger than the USA (10m sq k vs 9m sq k)
For instance, someone from Texas self-identifies as a Texan first, and then an American second. It’s why one of the first things an American asks when meeting a new American is “where are you from”. The state they’re from will (usually but not always) tell you a lot about them, their priorities, what their culture is, etc.
Personally I think it’s stupid (I’m not a big fan of “states rights”), but I’m very much in the minority in that.
…yea that sucks. Like I said, our election system sucks. All I pointed out is your assertion that electors are getting new cars in order to vote against the wishes of their state isn’t really a thing.
Our election process sucks, but it’s not because of faithless electors. The vast majority of times it was because the candidate died before the election.
Since 1900, there have been only 16 faithless electors who defected for individual reasons
Some interesting facts about excel I learned the hard way.
Not really related to what you said, but I’m still sore about the bad data import that caused me days of work to clean up.
The problem with your analogy is the third choice wasn’t don’t get shot. We had three choices.
This wasn’t the trolley car problem. Simple game theory can be applied.
I agree the Dems need to do better but Trump is objectively worse in every way. Forget his political views, he’s just a garbage human being. He’s everything that’s bad about humanity, or at least of capitalism, and it saddens me that 60% of my fellow Americans are just cool with that.
And Trump wants to deport 20 million people, yea, exactly the same.
Brain surgery is like a fart, putting it off for too long is going to cause major health issues.
