I mean, this is how businesses work in general. If you don't buy their products/services, then they wouldn't be able to continue providing them.

I understand that we're trying to draw attention to exploitative landlords, but if anyone can afford to keep their property regardless of whether or not you pay rent, it's the exploitative ones.

Alright, I found a screenshot of it posted on twitter. Can confirm that this is racist.

I'm working on making robots do useful things. I think that's fairly easy for most people to understand.

It certainly doesn't. But in the absence of evidence in either direction, I think it's most reasonable to not assume the worst of people.

Have you seen what she actually wrote, and if yes, can you share? I think we should set the actual message before casting judgement.

Does anyone think having a Bluetooth set and getting fed the answers is actually a problem? There are so many problems you need to handle as president that I don't see any possible way for a human being to remember all of it. Just do your thinking offline, write down your reasoning and solutions, and clear your mind for the next thing.

Agreed. There's a particular Chinese seitan dish that I really like but I don't know what it's called. It tastes kind of like a sweet curry flavor and is very juicy. Would anyone happen to know what it could be?

Better for the company doesn't necessarily mean it's worse for you.

You're currently having a conversation on an article about cold storage. The comment you replied to was about this article, and hence also about cold storage. It makes absolutely no sense to come into this conversation saying that they're wrong about how cold storage works because your experience with hot storage doesn't line up.

There's also voting to voice what you want to see in a community. If you block every community that has content you don't like, there won't be anything left.

But where does the extra money and infrastructure come from to provide everything they need?

What is money in the first place? It represents labour and resources. So when a new person shows up, they themselves provide the money in the form of their labour. They are the money.

If you replace the cars first, such that no one's daily schedules are significantly altered,

Is that going to happen if you replace cars with another vehicle that still requires car infrastructure?
