Most people consider conversations ended if neither party adds anything for a space of time.

A reasonable space of time is definitely overnight.

Rob’s is assuming he 1) sees everything, 2).didn’t or can’t miss anything important, and 3) that his interpretation is correct.

That’s why it’s arrogant and stupid and people get annoyed.

Seriously, have you never been upset or hurt and had someone try to tell you that you’re not?

They know. That’s why they hate theatre.

Why do people tap their breaks in the left lane when passing someone slower on the right?

Please stop. Tap your breaks if you’re signaling something going on in front, or if you need to slow down faster than just taking your foot off the gas will slow you.

Very unlikely. There’s a statement at the bottom that explains what the fee is. There’s a QR code at the top for more information, which OP cut off.

I doubt they went through the effort of updating their POS system, providing links to info on the receipt, and chose not to post a sign or put a note on the menu. Everywhere I have been with a service fee like this posts it, which would negate any legal issue.

Caveat emptor.

It’s literally what’s happening.

Texas used the same concept to empower private people to sue abortion providers and receivers under civil law since they couldn’t do it criminally.

The country as a whole has done it for a long time with cellphone data, the five eyes alliance, etc.

They have access to information they’re barred from getting directly themselves, and they get it from private companies. Spying by proxy.

Then again, maybe if he keeps going he will unite everyone behind the banner of “Not Gym Jordan,” which is a great service he’s able to provide us.

Almost across the board, new technology is used to spread two things: religious dogma and porn.

And the farmer’s almanac, but mostly the Bible and porn.

Not just their business practices, but also just the oculus purchase.

I already had an oculus. I was told (via press release) that I wouldn’t have any issues with not having a Facebook account…only for them to turn around a little while later and require a Facebook login.

This describes what I want - being able to have relatively blank walls/spaces that light up and fill up with content when you’re wearing the headset.

It’s social media in the technical definition - it’s a place to view media, both entertainment and news, with commentary, groups, the ability to follow someone, etc. Which makes it social.

But yeah, it’s not quite like Facebook/Instagram/LinkedIn. A little bit like Twitter though.

Doubtful. Industrial agriculture is applying the same nutrients, but to the dirt. A large portion doesn’t make it to the roots, and instead gets swept up and runs off into the water system.

Versus hydroponics, where the nutrients are added directly to the water which is applied directly to the roots and cycles back through the system repeatedly.

If the soil grows plants can be grown without fertilizer, you might have a point. But we have historically low topsoil, and most of it is less good quality. To continue with traditional/industrial agriculture, we need to start implementing regenerative practices, and that would take decades of active management across the entire sector to make a big enough impact.

Take a listen to her newer stuff. Her lyrics are tight, topical, and she’s got catchy melodies.

If you’re going this route, use the same logic they do: nature preserves that sell rights to hunt big game, to find the preservation.

My concern is that if you can drop tens of billions of dollars on a single acquisition, what’s to stop you from spending “just” one billion to manipulate the situation to put your target in a vulnerable situation?

Our entire society is set up to wring out anyone who is unfortunate enough to find themselves buying anything.

And as resources get squeezed, more and more people are trying to claw at smaller and smaller pieces of the overall economic pie.

The breaking point will be catastrophic.

“Omg mom is an alien too???”

Exactly. A broken clock is right twice a day. If “idiot” rich people can monetize their mistakes, consistently do so, and manage to do it almost as if by using the same playbook as each other…they’re not idiots, it is on purpose, and they just want enough plausible deniability that they don’t get strung up from a Michelin star restaurant.

I mean, you’re kind of seeing this with Donald Trump’s legal issues. He can’t get anyone with real clout, so he’s actually facing consequences in that arena now.
