Look we’re wasting our hard earned tax payer money on crazy fraudulent things like science, education, weather, feeding children, helping the poor, medicine… Dumb things like that. And you’re gonna tell me that changing the name of a body of water to include the greatest God damn country in America is a waste? Next thing you know you’re gonna stand there and tell me that poor people should be able to afford a hospital visit.
It’s always crazy to me how frequently this is overlooked. If you went out and asked 1000 random ppl what the legal age was in the country, I feel like pretty much all of them would say 18. I could’ve sworn it was 18 nationally like my entire life until a few years ago when I found this out.
Dude… How many times are you going to post this same thing lol
The age of social media dying is tight!
This is exactly what will happen. Same thing with Albertsons and Kroger too.
Lol if I had a dollar for every time I’ve heard about the next CoD killer
I work in this space. There’s a wide variety of reasons, a company being dumb and greedy is definitely among them but typically just a tiny part of the equation. The biggest thing is certified vendors. The military/government is incredibly strict with who they’ll contract with. Which means the supply is incredibly limited on many things, which in turn means that companies will ratchet up prices a crazy amount in part to deal with the goofy standards that the government requires on their goods but also because they know the demand far outweighs the supply.
There is also the burden of time. The US government drags their feet an INSANE amount on projects. It scales with size as well. The larger the project the slower things move almost every time. It very frequently gets to a point where they need stuff done right now because they waited too long and will pay pretty much any price to do it.
There is also the fact that the military is operating with a budget chalk full of “fuck you money.” In short, money is immaterial. Half the time they don’t even look at the price, whatever it costs doesn’t matter, just get it done and get it done right.
My company marks up shit an insane amount and I know for a fact pretty much every other certified vendor is as well. I dunno about 8k% (lol) markup but honestly that doesn’t shock me. The prices I’ve seen are jaw dropping. And they pretty much never get negotiated or rejected.
This makes no logical sense lol. OP says he’s going to commit suicide, his comment gets upvotes, therefore his comment is sarcasm?? Right or wrong this is just an awful way to decide. How others react to something isn’t indicative of that thing’s original intent… That should be pretty obvious.
I was shopping for daycare trying to kinda get a financial picture of how we could swing it not too long ago and the cheapest daycare I could find came out to about twice my mortgage lol. So I guess I either hit the lottery so I don’t have to use daycare or I just don’t have kids
Dude literally told advertisers to go fuck themselves and is now like “well wait, I didn’t mean it like that” lmao
I have this problem or it will play for like 3 seconds and then buffer for a bit, play 3 seconds, buffer, repeat for infinity. No matter what I do I have one of these issues with Firefox and any adblocker and it’s super annoying.
No no you don’t understand. Since Scar Jo played a female voice that behaved nicely and made jokes in a movie she now owns the rights to any female (or feminine male voice) that either: makes a joke, says something witty, answers a question, or makes a statement. This is a slam dunk case for Scar Jo. I will also be sued for writing this as she also wrote an email in a movie once that had words in the forms of sentences just like this post so I’m screwed.
Just think how annoying it would be if like the best players in the world were only good because they were literally Olympic sprinters and just ran literal circles around you in a fight lol
I have personally done a blind taste test just for fun with several different types of fish that my family caught and the two of us that were doing it both couldn’t tell for shit what was frozen and what wasn’t. Anecdotal for sure but I thought for sure I’d be able to tell easily.
Yeah screw those people being able to be happy and move to an area that doesn’t bend them over almost definitely worse than you. What assholes! They should have to stay in the downtown centers and pay $15 million to live in an old phone booth with a sink.
This has the same energy of people being pissed off with student loan forgiveness or something. “If I had to deal with it, so should you! I can’t be happy so you can’t either blah blah”
I honestly do not believe there is a limit so long as there is money to be made by ignoring that they are an issue.
Have a 7 now and an very pleased with it. I’m not really a power user tho so I’m easy to please. I do have a soft spot for my old 5a tho. That thing has a smaller screen, a battery for days, a damn headphone jack (rip) and the finger print scanner on the back was awesome. I miss all of that dearly.
Wasn’t like one of his focuses going to be getting rid of bots? Did they just not do anything and the bots just invaded or did the bots just get better?
The podcast he went on was utterly bonkers lol. He was complaining that the Democrats didn’t get him out of legal trouble even tho he donated so much money to them. So now he’s switching sides to Republican since they actually take care of their criminals lol.
