In this insane late stage capitalism, the idea is that it only works if there is eternal growth... This is, of course, impossible to sustain; however, since everyone calling shots do not care about long term future, only short term gains, they have forgotten about the unsustainablility of the current scheme and just hope to kick the bucket down the line for the next sucker

Not sure of you can hear all the way up there on your high horse but I have a couple of fire sticks I got for free in a promo... Never paid monthly fee to Amazon, still get updates and the only commercials I see are posters for whatever new movies are out which is a great prompt for me to pirate

I got these because the size (physical size) was amazing, much better looking than a Old PC near every TV... Android provided enough flexibility (not open like a Linux box but not listed like an apple appliance), I can side load the apps I use

I'd say it went to shit way before but indeed that was another plunge into the abyss

... And it's not like every kitchen has a microwave or every household multiple phones or computers or cara in driveways or slimmer glasses to correct vision or etc etc etc

Ugh... Reddit all over again

Thanks for the heads up

Exactly this.... Something that, at the moment of donation, literally means less than zero to you, could literally be a new lease in life for someone else

You have anecdotal claims. They don't rise to the level of proof that the studies I mentioned do.

What studies? You posted a Google search and have made about a dozen claims with no backing in his thread alone

-> this guy! Lol

Best of luck bud

I would not have expected this to be possible in any western democracy.

It isn't... And it's time to admit the USA does not have democracy

Democracy in the USA is like those sugary cereals pretend to be "part of a healthy breakfast"

Hmm I'm sure a 12 month change of scenery would be great... Not sure how that will change your prospects in the mid term
