I don't know why regimes like Putin's are feeling like they're safe to invade other countries.
Must be Trump's fault.

Think about how hard the world can be. Imagine being on a battlefield in world war 1, surrounded by non stop explosions and the corpses of your friends. Imagine being arrested by Stalin's secret police and brought to a gulag and you slowly watch the people around you dying and there's no future besides slowly fading away for any of you. Imagine it's the holodomor and you're seeing your children are skin and bones and if you try to go into your fields to find a few stray grains you'll be shit but if they don't get food your children -- your future -- will die. Imagine the arctic explorers who were in a wasteland of ice for 1000km all around them and they had to choose to leave friends corpses behind and kill and eat their sled dogs just to have the energy to go one more day. The human race has had a number of choke points genetically where we all have a single common ancestor because the human race was that close to extinction, life was that hard. Some people are born with horrific diseases that mangle their bodies and make sure they'll never lead anything like a normal life.
And people lived through that -- chose to live through that -- and often continued to until they died of natural causes if they made it through those moments.

I mean, it's all the same marketing drones selling both sets of things, so it makes sense the marketing would be remarkably similar.
Yeah -- they're always against the little guy, they'll always turn anything good into shit once things start to turn, but it's nice in the meantime at least pretending it isn't all just one big unified shitshow
When I talk about "die ein button" I'm referring to the one button at the bottom of the screen that was the one and only way things were done by most phones on both Apple and Android forever. You could put that thing anywhere if you wanted a button. The back (great choice actually, later phones tried that), the side, or other options altogether like capacitive buttons or on-screen button.
I think it's more about the last one.
And hey, I am wearing a Bluetooth ear bud right now, they've gotten a lot better.
But I also use wired earphones a lot

Die ein button took a decade to finally go away despite it being a silly design decision
According to apple, an iPhone 13 is 7.65mm thick.
Wow, that's pretty thin. Nobody could make a device thinner than that with a headphone jack.
Well, I mean except apple. Which made the iPod touch with a headphone jack that's 6.1mm thick.

Not really.
The government and the central banks caused the inflation by printing tons of money and shutting down the world economy ensuring that way more money was chasing way few things, and in energy in particular by specifically taking actions to reduce energy production.
If companies could just gouge you, then they would have already -- why wouldn't they? The thing is, under normal conditions there's a spot on a curve they have to be at because if they raise prices it also drops, so they need to stay in the right spot or they just make less money with the assets they own.
This isn't some insane conspiracy theory, it's literally macroeconomics 101.
It's actually the reason why people like me have been warning that policies that are only intended to reduce the amount of energy available are really bad because the common man won't be able to afford energy for basic things like heating their homes in winter.
In the context of the market, reducing the energy supply means you have two choices: Either there will be shortages (and I recall there *were* shortages in the UK for a period of time in the past few years), or prices will rise so people use less.

Pretty interesting seeing how many things were being propped up solely by venture capital and are now shutting down as it dries up.
A lot of these businesses had a lot of hubris because they'd survived a surprisingly long time, but they never made any money. Now that you can get 5.5% in a money market fund, why put the risk into a bunch of high risk businesses that are likely to fully collapse anyway?

Problem is that writing is hard, and writing something people are willing to pay for is really hard. It's much easier to convince some bald rich retard to pay you to write absolute nonsense like "Poor? Skip meals!"
In unrelated news, nobody in Hollywood or Washington DC is getting laid anymore and instead is getting referred to mental health services
I see a lot of videos talking about how a 3d printed house can be built in hours.
Thing is, a stick frame house can be built in hours too. Maybe faster than a 3d printed house.
The devil is in the details. It's in doing the foundation and perhaps a basement, it's in doing the electrical, it's in doing the windows and the insulation and the vapor barrier. Not to mention permitting and the like.

tbf, most people can print money and they can also destroy money by borrowing money from the bank or paying it back.
If I was interested in disney, I'd be pricing in the current fight between investors and the board assuming the investors will win and make things less woke, so it might not be as bad as you think.
