If the stock market and US dollar becomes worthless, it won't matter where you store your retirement money because it'll be worthless too.

No it isn't and they have openly talked about doing this practice back in the early days of reddit to make the site appear more active than it really was. Nothing has changed.

Yeah I saw that part of the Reconcilliation bill they're allotting $45B to build facilities to house 100,000 deportees, or $450,000 per person. They're cutting all useful services so that they can take our tax dollars and give it to their friends who give a cut back in "donations" or $1,000,000 a plate dinners at Trump's lair.

It should be interesting considering she's currently the director of national intelligence yet seemed to learn about security during the time of AOL floppy disks.

They also had their Masarati edition Chrysler LeBaron around this time, which seems like a match made in heaven since both companies build vehicles that appear to be "premium" but are absolute dog shit vehicles.

I just read that article about screwworms and how some lady who took a nap on the beach while on vacation had these eggs laid in her ear. You might be on to something.

I'd hate to have to be the crew that gets this thing down. What a pain in the ass with the potential to be lethal.

I use it and it works great except their eddie client is kinda garbage (at least on Windows) so I switched to using Wiresock on Windows and then later gluetun after setting up a Linux machine.

I was with you with this thought experiment until the teleportation part and knowing that you weren't drugged. In this situation, you couldn't possibly know that at the time and that really changes things from a bizarre but realistic scenario to one involving aliens or some such.

I think the key difference is approaching them to try and "pick them up" versus approaching for a conversation. The former can be creepy and inappropriate while the latter is less so (depending on your demeanor and the situation).

As a taller person, I could see myself rocking a little too far and toppling over with my feet trapped in behind the lower bar. It's an interesting design though this version looks really rickety and like it's made out of cheap plywood.
