I don't buy anything at Walmart and I probably only been in one less than 5 times.

Walmart specifically chose areas where people needed values, people barely getting by financially, and don't have a lot of time and energy.

I get the point of this post but putting the blame on consumers is exactly the public relations speak used by these corporations.

If we are just limiting the scope to three years than I assume building another lane causes more congestion short term anyway. Construction of new lanes slows down speed limits due to construction laws and construction eventually has to shut down the lane over at some point.

I would like to know what this community thinks about e-bikes. Specifically are your opinions about e-bikes on the same level as regular bikes or are they closer to motorcycles which a lot of people in this community also dislikes.

Because people don't want to pay for shit content. Let's take pirating out of the equation. If I read a book I borrowed and I really like it, I would buy. If the content was trash then I wouldn't. Same goes if I watch a movie, listen to an album, or eat a microwavable burrito at a friend's or family member's house.

The stolen data the outlet reviewed reportedly contains details on whether applicants were rejected or accepted, their citizenship status, their university ID numbers and which academic programs they sought admission to.

The threat actor reportedly told Bloomberg he was seeking information that would indicate whether the university continues to use affirmative action in admissions despite a 2023 Supreme Court decision prohibiting the practice.

If you look at the history of releases of iPhone and Android Google apps, features usually come out on the iPhone first.

A couple of theories range from programming on iOS is easier to the iOS team is simply better.

They are banking on the AI will eventually be smart enough that it will replace the workers that fed it.

California was 58.47% Dem to 38.33% Rep.

Only District of Columbia (90.28% to 6.47%), Maryland (62.62% to 34.08%), Massachusetts (61.22% to 36.02%), Hawaii (60.59% to 37.48%), and Vermont (63.83% to 32.32%) did better percentage wise.

California is still in the top 5 of the most Democratic states, even beating out New York (55.91% to 43.31%), Washington State (57.23% to 39.01%), and Illinois (54.37% to 43.47%).

If you look at the percentages, a lot of people voted for Trump everywhere. You can't just single out California for this.
