Most parents are way less literate than their kids. Most censorship/site restriction, can be circumvented easily.

The Arc 850 is apparently a banger of a midrange card. The mid range, I imagine, is the sweet spot for volume and profitability
I'm using a dish brush as much as possible now. If you must use scouring pads, use 3M scotch brand. They last way longer than other brands, so less waste.
I also use a brush as much as possible. When replacement time comes, I will get bamboo brushes.
Nice life pro tip! Thanks.
Sticky prices probably play a major role.
"Sticky prices" refer to prices that remain fixed or change very slowly despite shifts in supply and demand or changes in the overall price level. This phenomenon is also known as nominal rigidity, and it contrasts with the theoretical expectation of prices adjusting quickly to market conditions. Sticky prices can be upwardly sticky, meaning they are resistant to falling even if market conditions suggest a price decrease." (Gemini)
The Muslims basically let the Christians and Jews carry on with their lives, albeit extracting taxes.
Historically, in countries and regions following Islamic law, the religious communities that Muslims recognized as People of the Book were subject to a legal status known as dhimmi, meaning that they had the option to pay a special head tax called jizya in exchange for being granted the privilege to practice their faith and govern their community according to the rules and norms of their own religion.

I'm OK with this as long as there is a way to "root".
Think Android->custom ROMs, or Apple->Linux.
If there is no way to change firmware, and/or easily mod hardware, no thanks.
Maybe another tech bro o ketamine, like Musk?
Would you give money to that?
I did a tour as a conscript. I hated "losing" over a year of my life when I was drafted.
Looking back, I actually had fun, learned a lot about society, as we were from all walks of life and I came from a priviledged environment. Made great friends.
Got to play with a bunch of things that go bang and brrrrrr. (The MG is awesome!).
Learned to kill in a bunch of ways, being in a Scout unit. Thankfully I never deployed, so it all stayed theory.
Learned a lot about patience, discipline, survival within a dystopian bureaucracy, repressing the urge to frag, teamwork, esprit de corps, and much more.
I really think that despite all the shit that being in the military entails, it was definitely a net positive for me, especially because I never deployed.
The report cited a 2018 FAA advisory that urged operators of Boeing models, including the 787, to inspect the locking mechanism on fuel cutoff switches to prevent unintentional movement. The preliminary report noted that Air India had not carried out these inspections as they were not mandatory.*
