This is what happens when people watch the Joker and think of Joachin Phoenix as the hero rather than the victim who then lashes out at the system that made him.

I'm pretty sure that translates in any culture that eats meat and has gone to war. There might have been an isolated village of vegetarians sometime in history who would have been confused.

8600 from 4 dealerships in 3 days, or 12 dealership-days. So, about 700 per dealership per day on average. The 1200 in one day is likely the max, which is typical for these kind of statements.

Yes, keep on reminding people how much better Canada is. And, unlike oil, this kind of better can't be exported by invading.

The IRS is one of the most profitable agencies in government. So why do you think they want to downsize it?

Call him Capo Trump. He'd probably think it's a compliment.

This is the kind of content that makes me wish Lemmy had a feature for following users. Thank you!

That was an interesting article. It's certainly possible that international trade would be better for our economy, but our infrastructure is lacking and our resources need new markets. Doing this may not directly help the economy as much, but it could help to build a foundation for strengthening our economy when these challenges are resolved, however that happens.

Also nice how they said questions like this aren't entirely out of their hands and need to be judged by the people via an election, but rather that this is a tool that can be abused, but they don't think there is evidence to indicate it was. Pretty balanced statement overall.

This highlights a big problem that people ignore when they say they want government to be run like a business. A business is concerned with what's best for them, not what's best for the customer. And this is certainly what's best for Musk, and likely not what's best for the people.

But not so envious as to start pretending Adidas track suits are tuxedos.

I'm not sure of the availability guarantees, but Oracle and other cloud services have free tiers for low CPU/RAM/storage needs. If the availability guarantees are there, this could be an option. It works fine for FoundryVTT and hasn't cost me anything for the last couple years, and I don't imagine your projected needs would outstrip Foundry's.
