We had a massive lecture hall (500-1000 student capacity) at my uni, inside of the lecture hall, there were men’s and women’s bathrooms without doors, but with like the hidden S curve

Someone took an explosive shit all over the sink.

And we had a midterm exam with the worst smelling shit I’ve ever smelled.

Weather related or due to lack of investment?

I used to live off of 3 miles of dirt road that was not maintained by anyone. After hurricanes sinkholes would open or the road would flood with 1-5 feet of water.

During this time, paramedics or fire department would use boats, helicopters, or swim if neither was available…

GDP is not taxed revenue or availability of funds.

Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the monetary value of all finished goods and services produced within a country during a specific period. (I used gen AI for this paragraph).

According to the CBO, they expect to collect $4.864 trillion in taxes in 2025 (source: https://www.cbo.gov/topics/taxes ).

Unless you are going to forcibly steal assets from companies (which would lead to amass exodus from the US economy and cause a massive depression) you’d never get 20 trillion.

This idea is a nice thought, but impossible and not how the economy works.

So 60 hertz didn’t cause headaches, but 59.96hz did?

That doesn’t seem true

Dual xeons on a non-server board?

I doubt it…

Well, nut and grain milk are much more costly, so I doubt that

They could still make a fortune doing a rent to own model, charge 2x the cost of the computer and easily pocket that money…

This is stupid on the surface, BUT “milk” in some jurisdictions is protected with legal standards. This prevents watering down or other issues.

I am not familiar with the UK, so I don’t know if this is applicable.

In the US, “ice cream” is protected and has to meet standards, otherwise it is called a “frozen dairy dessert”.

Additionally, in the US we recently had a massive butter recall from Costco because it did not label “dairy” as an allergen. Common sense indicates butter contains milk, HOWEVER, these allergen labels are the law and the allergens feed into downstream items. IE, if you use the butter to make brownies, then the brownies must be labeled. If you automate this process or whatever, you could miss this, due to it not being labeled correctly.

Is it over? I’ve read the military says they will keep enforcing the martial law

I paid $0.52/kWh in California before I moved out of state

Even more with fees tacked on.
