MacBooks are frikkin amazing though. There is nothing in the PC world that even comes close.

Why would you buy this garbage?

That’s how companies get away with shit like this: diffusion of responsibility.

No one made a single decision to let seniors die. Instead there is a whole bunch of small decisions, from the top down, that each on their own seem reasonable. The CEO may have given the order to look for ways to increase profit margins. Someone lower down came up with the idea for ‘performance bonuses’. Someone further down the hierarchy had to come up with a metric to tie these bonuses to, then someone below felt pressured by this to be more hesitant before hospitalizing someone.

In the end you end up with a whole chain of decisions where you can’t really point at anyone who made a truly ‘bad’ decision. Every individual decision can be defended as reasonable, but the end result is the company is behaving like a sociopath. The responsibility is spread out over so many people and watered down that no one really can be held responsible.

If we’re going to list all his crimes we’ll still be here tomorrow.

And the central premise of his reelection, which was to make America more affordable, is a complete fallacy, a complete lie.

You mean Trump, who is well known to be a pathological lying criminal narcissist, lied to people so he could get reelected? surprised Pikachu

The least common way of a burglary happening is someone picking a lock.

You don’t need a gun to defend against a burglar. Burglars are generally cowards and run away when caught. The whole point of sneaking into your house is to not be detected and commit theft. (taking something without a person noticing it).

What you might need protection from is robbery (taking things under thread of violence). A robber is not going to sneak into your house. They will either kick down your door while you sleep or simply ring the doorbell and wait for you to open. Do you bring your gun every time someone is at the door?

They specifically said they think it’s true that carrying it most of the time isn’t the point.

Then there is no point. They will just wait until you are not carrying to rob you.

But mostly it remains at my bedside as an “in case” if it’s needed. If something were to go sideways, law enforcement is probably going to be at least 20 to 30 minutes away and possibly up to 90 minutes. I cannot rely on either one of the two deputies on duty at 2AM to be anywhere near me if things go bad.

If something goes ‘sideways’ at 2AM, you expect anyone breaking into your house to ring the doorbell and wait for you to wake up?

Even if you carried at all times, and you were specifically trained (think special forces training, not I spend my weekends at the gun range training) then it’s still a toss-up if you will be able to respond fast enough. If they want to harm you, they will. You cannot be hyper-aware of your surroundings 24/7, you need to relax, you need to sleep.

I can’t imagine what life must be like when you’re so afraid that you think you need to have a gun within reach at all times.

Here in the Netherlands I’ve never had any medication that wasn’t in blister packs. They are always full boxes. Boxes have anti-tamper seals and a unique serial number that the pharmacist has to scan when issuing (to prevent fake medication). Pills are individually packaged to prevent contamination.

They want to normalize the position so its the same for every user.

That doesn’t make sense if users aren’t all the same.

Leaving it as-is after use is the most efficient (least number of seat movements)

My idea was to just bulldozer that shit right after he’s gone

No need, that abomination is never going to get built.

I just go when I need something and then it’s usually a few things. No need for a list. If I’m going to need to get a lot of stuff then I’ll make a list.

Must be a long time ago.

An Appl owner wouldn’t need to ask this, as iOS/macOS has AirDrop built in.

Why do they even have limited time licenses? This doesn’t happen for music streaming services.

Working just fine for me.

Wow. That must mean it works for everyone.

It’s not like there is any sort of ecoconomic loss from kicking Israel out.
