It was the straw that broke the camels back to get me to switch to Linux.

Saying someone is "hurr durr meat tastes better" is wrong is so dismissive of other people and completely insufferable.

I agree, people should eat less meat. We often have meals in my house that don't feature meat. But guess what, I think meat tastes better.

The best way to alienate people and turn them against your point of view is to be an insufferable twat.

That's my answer too. I went a month with just trying to make basic things work. Had to go back to being productive. Now, I bought another drive and I spend time whenever I have it. Once everything works as i need it to, I'll switch full time.

Also, scale matters. If 4 posts increased to 7, that's a 75% increase I'm not concerned about. Now, 40,000 to 70,000 concerns me.

When she remarried, she kept the name too. Her new husband not so happy about it, but it was clear she ruled that relationship.

Because one of the few things he actually understands is he is not immortal, so he's trying to make a legacy. Hence, literally offering his sperm to anyone who wants it, and not caring about anything other than making sure his name is at the top of everything he is even mildly interested in.

When my parents got divorced, my mother didn't change her last name. She said it was her name most of her adult life and didn't feel the need to revert to her childhood name.

It's not sad, there is a direct connection.

They are the top games because of the psychological manipulation being successful.

She acted like she was entitled to the job. Anytime she spoke, it felt like she was holding her nose to do it. She was riddled by controversy for decades (deserved or not).

She was just such a bad choice and probably one of the few people who could have lost to Trump.

It already can.

There are some places where an inability to pay fines, can result in a warrant and imprisonment.

8% now. 20 years ago, it was a third of that. If there is profit to be made, profit will be made. It's also just one small factor in an extremely shitty whole.

The fact prison labour exists at all is an issue. If prisoners truly benefited from it, like a fair wage plus every day reducing their sentence, then I could hold my nose, but as is. Slavery.

This is proof they don't understand the endgame here. The only (legal) type of slavery left in the United States is prisoner labour. It is not a coincidence that the right wants to make so many things criminal. It's also not a coincidence they want to keep poor people desperate because it makes them more likely to commit crime. It's not a coincidence they support minimum sentences.

More crime, more free labour, more for profit prisons selling services.....
