Ford used to say something to the effect of 'pay your workers well enough to afford the product they're building' and it seemed to work well.

Nothing really aside from the annoyance of living where everything is 20 miles apart makes shopping at multiple small shops quite time consuming.

Somehow advanced quantum computing ends up with a steampunk aesthetic.

He would put the code genius that left the doge Page's DB unlocked in charge of enforcement.

That too, though I haven't had reason to go there just yet. Curious to see some stats over the year to see if there's a notable bump for them due to standing against the trend to kill DEI.

At the rate these chains are telling me to fuck off with my business and ignore them I'm gonna end up with nothing but farmer markets and crafts shows to shop at...

I'm kind of mixed on that depending on the game. In general I say I'd rather the kids play a game than watch a show because it's interactive rather than just pushing mush into their face.

A lot of people using official channel emulators probably don't think of it as emulation. I have one of the original style PS3 systems where it had PS2 hardware to play the older games. Does that count as emulation or using an older system? Hard to say where one draws the line.

How many times can people fall for the same scam and not be blamed for taking the bait themselves? Shitcoins come in a flavor of the week, the originator hold a horde of them and shills it as the greatest thing ever, follows dump money in it, and the principal makes off with the gains. Trump co pulled the same gimmick to fleece their fans and nobody batted an eye
