Delivery price is cheaper than the fuel, prices are same as the store.

It’s actually cheaper here, and it is also cheaper and easier for both the store and me.

Yeah the poop knife is not a knife made from poop, but a knife with the purpose of cutting poop.

I just realized I haven’t used a conveyor belt checkout since before the pandemic. It’s either grocery delivery or self-checkout.

Don’t some Christian sects do that as well?

Along with your Tax ID, credit card number and date of birth and mother’s maiden name.

Good old days, when Office was Office and not 365 Copilot AI whatever.

It’s the Brussels effect, it’s been mandatory in the EU for a while now.

I don’t get what FSD adds to the highway experience though, a Kia can drive hundreds of kilometers on a highway with basically no input as well.

AI makes revenue go down, stock value go up. The real economy doesn’t matter, only Wall Street vibes.

I once ordered too many IKEA hotdogs and this picture completely recolors that experience for the worse

By taxing corporations and reversing this insane wealth concentration.

Enterprise lags behind Home and Pro. Consumers are QA for Enterprise.

There was no header on the request saying I want ads though

I drink that and Fentimans when I do.

Fentimans or Bundaberg ginger beer and whatever Kinley sells is not even the same league.

They have taste beyond the insane amount of bland sugar.

Nah, cola is fine, it’s just that it’s American. There are quite a few awesome local brands you can drink here.

So do you have the president of the central bank steal a third of your yearly GDP while you get taxed 45% on your income, 32% on everything you buy, and also on random bullshit?

Amateurs.

I can somewhat understand but of course not support that mindset.

Imagine if you held it as an axiom that “being gay is bad for you”. Then it becomes similar to addiction in their eyes, some people are more susceptible, some people are less, but it is the role of community to keep people away from indulging as it is bad for you. The choice that is presumed by them is not one of identity, but one of indulgence, the alternative they have is not “be straight”, but “don’t do gay things”, so they want people to do what normal people call “staying in the closet”.

For them, a gay person is like a crack addict saying “but being a crackhead is not a choice, I was born with it, and this is how I want to live my life”. And they fear to let their children next to this gay person the same way you’d be apprehensive of a crack addict, because they might give your kids crack and make them crack addicts too. And if you tell them that their kids might be gay too is like a crack addict telling you your kids might like crack too; well of course they might, but it’s bad for you so you shouldn’t do it.

Now of course society should stay out of our bedrooms, but that is an axiom held by us, but not by them. And partisan politics of course likes to keep these divisions up so that you vote for the one side, they vote for the other, and nobody questions why can’t we just live our lives in peace.

That’s one way to look at it, but I think it was more of the Reagan-Thatcher generation killing off the left and the rot set in. I wouldn’t discount the achievements of leftists as just concessions from capital. They don’t give an inch if they don’t have to.

Yeah I’ve been in a few places around Europe, and it really seems that in Western Europe, labour movements made big gains in like the 1970s and neolib governments have been squandering that ever since, and we are nearing the point where it all turns fash.
