People need motivation to vote. A selective tax credit or “other guy bad” simply isn’t enough. You can complain all you want about how stupid people are for not voting against fascism, but if you cannot face the reality of voters and how to get them to vote then how much smarter can you really call yourself over others? This is a lesson that apparently needs to be learned every election yet never seems to be learned.

Panic buying like this only leads to more price increases. I just buy the minimum, like usual.

A fourth person with severely impaired vision also experienced gains in their sight, but they did not last.

Bharti says it isn’t clear what exactly caused the vision improvements. It’s possible that the transplanted cells themselves proliferated in the recipient’s corneas. But the vision gains could also be due to the removal of scar tissue before the transplant, or the transplant triggering the recipient’s own cells to migrate from other regions of the eye and rejuvenate the cornea.

These parts are a little concerning to me, but I’m still hopeful.

In other words: “tesla stock went up”

The numbers are made up.

The most realistic portrayal of a dystopia.

Smash the window!

Look at what atrocities hamas has forced the idf to do for over a year now!!! Seriously, I can’t believe you’re trying to make this argument at this point.

Somehow the same people who thought they could make the argument of “neither party will stop what is happening in Gaza, so vote based on other issues” don’t think israel already had a blank check. Now these same people are gloating as if the people of Gaza deserve to be genocided because the democrats didn’t win. It’s sick and it’s illustrative of what’s wrong with the “democratic” party.

Exactly. He already has his hand up the government’s ass and had been sucking off billions of dollars in subsidies and other benefits. This will only get worse, but apparently boosting musk is bipartisan, the two parties just differ in how much they want to give to him.

I have no confidence in Intel’s long-term prospects.

These fuckers are everywhere.

Can I have an interrobang candle?

Break free from the solution they resorted to in the pursuit of profits? Too bad that backfired, but it’s okay since Intel can keep making subpar products as long as the government has their back.

With how much talk there is about China invading Taiwan, you’d think they have invaded it ten times already. Then again, maybe this excessive reporting is another “effort to contain frustration”.

None of the west’s enemies are afforded the same generosity. Maybe we don’t want the majority of guests to be a bunch of mindless parrots who only care about human rights when mainstream media from “their side” tell them to care (as an excuse to project power globally). It ends up permeating all discussions, even ones that aren’t directly about politics and you end up building an echo chamber. It shapes how you see the world, for example, you took a post talking specifically about western leadership to be about “convicting all of western civilization” as if the victim of the genocide is actually the west.

I’m more concerned with the threats from the people in charge of the system, but whatever gets them to the conclusion that it’s a bad idea is fine with me.

The billionaires themselves are pumping up the numbers.

The stat clearly shows billionaires are doing far more consumption. Seems more like you want to blame consumption on someone other than the worst offenders.

Just like how there are people who intentionally avoid having children, there are people who intentionally have children.

I dunno, apparently someone can support a genocide and still be considered a good guy these days.
