It's bitcoin, the only thing it's disrupting is the pyramid scheme space. It's too volatile, too expensive(transaction fees), and too slow to be a useful currency. There is no reason for the government to buy in to a speculation bubble.

How is buying local goods and services not contributing to the local economy? It's the same economic effect as tourism.

I can't ask them to delete my data because I forgot the fake birthday I used for the fake name and they keep asking for it for "security". Alas. If in 5-10 years I'm living in a country that allows genetic discrimination either openly or through lack of enforcement I feel like I have bigger problems to worry about.

I'm more annoyed that forgetting that date also means I can't download my data so I can't use 3rd party analysis tools.

I keep clicking on the profile link when I see an astonishingly stupid take expecting it to be someone from the most recent reddit migration wave and I can't believe how often I'm wrong. How haven't we bullied the racist dipshits off the platform even after a year+

There is no way you can't cut that 80k number in half if you're actually trying to build something with the goal of being affordable. Those are companies that are trying to make a manufactured home sound hot and trendy for profit, not an organization trying to make affordable housing.

Every now and then a little devil on my shoulder says "you should set up a cluster computer that serves a secondary function as a smart space heater" and it's gonna be really hard to ignore if the deals are good enough.

complaining about kids these days not enjoying the same shit you did when you were a kid

I have 0 idea how you could have read that from the image. It's about the seemingly exponential improvement in graphics or just how fast things were changing in gaming.

Or the person calculating their withholding was. But if you're paycheck to paycheck then that paycheck amount is all that really matters. Cool, I get a bigger refund eventually, but I'm now choosing between eating, walking 2 hours to work to save gas, or letting a bill go unpaid.

What do you think this community is for, exactly?

"we need someone to run the government like a business" "lets pick this guy with 40 bankruptcies" my guy even if the premise wasn't idiotic what did you think would happen

I live in a van, I've spent a lot of time deep in the woods all across the US. There are still hardly any insects when the nearest lawn is dozens of miles away. This is almost definitely related to industrial scale pollution effecting the entire ecosystem not just just localized habitat destruction.
