They compared a basket of streaming services to an average-priced cable package, which loosely makes sense. Individual streaming services are usually only a fraction of the content of a cable package, so if you want to compare prices, comparing the price of a comparable-size bundle of goods is a good place to start.
It all varies from market to market, they used a national average. Their numbers wouldn’t hold up in my locale.
Plenty of business owners in the US are invested in commercial real estate, so an undercurrent at least in the US is that a lot of people with decision making authority over this kind of thing personally stand to lose money if the value of commercial real estate falls.
It seems a bit off and corrupt from a business standpoint to deliberately mismanage your business in hopes of limiting personal losses from investments in other industries, but most of how business works in America seems off and corrupt to me.
The relief is targeted at people who enrolled in income-driven repayment (IDR) plans, which allow student loan debts to be forgiven by the federal government once payments have been made for 20 or 25 years, depending on the plan.
But because of well-documented errors in tracking payments, many borrowers enrolled in IDR plans have been left paying well beyond their payment end dates, with no forgiveness in sight.
Let’s read that again. No changes in policy are happening, the Biden administration is literally just applying the literal basic terms of the already-on-the-books-and-already-lawful repayment plan to nearly a million people who were supposed to have their debts forgiven already.
The sunk cost of unused office space has been a major factor in companies’ decisions to change their RTO approach, says Kacher.
So what we’re seeing here is a situation where 80% of bosses fucked their businesses up by falling victim to an economic reasoning fallacy they teach you about in Econ 101?
Why do you think destroying public education is a key right wing priority?
Nope. Chromium is just an upstream project for Chrome. Chrome = Chromium + proprietary Google integrations tacked on. Chromium still phones home to Google.

Admining an MS shop is like “haha yeah isn’t it great? all these tools! so great!” dies on inside knowing all these tools are tied into cloud infra that we’ve had to assume is unsafe ever since SolarWinds, can’t challenge anything because your boss saw a list of open source CVE’s and isn’t aware there isn’t a similar database for how many foreign governments and criminal enterprises have backdoors in Azure
If you’re just looking to mess around, Bard isn’t half bad. Okay, it’s pretty terrible, but it can do Internet searches and has a Python interpreter built in, so you can do stuff with Bard you can’t do with GPT-3.5

edit: to cut to the chase, judicial review is not in the Constitution (go ahead, go find it), was not intended by the Framers, and was a power claimed by the court over a decade after it was set up, in Marbury v. Madison
Amending the Constitution to fix the problems with a court that’s been arrogating extra powers to itself from the beginning hardly seems workable.
From an originalist standpoint, the only consistent stance on judicial review seems to be that it shouldn’t exist. If we hew to the original ideas of the Founders and the plain text of the Constitution, the Supreme Court’s powers are at best poorly defined and not clearly enforceable.
Hey what do originalists think about the power of judicial review? What do they think about that section of the Constitution and the Framers’ intent behind delegating that power to the Supreme Court?
Oh wait…
Current favored theory about his Twitter takeover is that he was just fucking around with the stock price, as he is wont to do (this is the guy that was forced to step down as the head of Tesla because he manipulated the stock price as a joke), and the Twitter board and SEC called his bluff. He’s been backed into a corner and is now trying to drag it to bankruptcy so he can get out of the mess he made.
Yes, but in the US, everything has to be really shitty and backwards for no reason, so banks don’t have functional apps to quickly move money around. You can do ACH transfers, which work, but are only designed to clear within a couple days, not minutes.
Likely causes problems. According to the Union of Concerned Scientists, nasty chemicals from the bedrock are released by the creation of the “fracture network” (shattering the bedrock), which gets into the water used for steam generation. From there, if it’s a closed loop system, the damage is somewhat limited, although this likely ruins the groundwater in the area, but if it’s an open loop system, then it emits all the toxic gases stored in the bedrock (including methane and carbon dioxide) and creates a constant stream of contaminated water that has to be dealt with.

Less so than a racist bot who thinks the criminal justice system needs bail in order to detain people, though lmfao
Forgetting a single thing about a system I haven’t studied or interacted with in over fifteen years doesn’t mean I don’t understand it. You never forget or incorrectly remember anything?
Was I wrong in other parts of my comment? In what other ways did I betray a lack of understanding of the criminal justice system? Was my understanding overall better or worse than the person I was replying to? Did I really show a lower overall level of understanding than the right wing concern troll I was responding to?
Was my bit about bail even the main point of my comment?
In what ways should I do better in future? Never make mistakes? Not correct myself when I catch them? Not complain when other people pile on to correct me long after I’ve corrected myself? Not get annoyed when people who are clearly an order of magnitude slower than me take it on themselves to correct mistakes I’ve already fixed? Please help me be “better,” whatever that’s supposed to mean in this situation.
You were repeating common right-wing talking points about this in exactly the same concern trolling style that many right wing trolls use and have used on this exact topic of discussion. I just didn’t give you the benefit of the doubt that you weren’t exactly what you appeared to be and replied as though you were concern trolling. I still responded to your points.
Also, how much does it really change anything if you get bail back or not? Does it? How so, if so?
Additionally, I caught my mistake quickly and corrected it on my own. The people who are correcting me spent twenty minutes lovingly researching and crafting two sentence responses to an issue I caught on my own and fixed within a couple of minutes. I don’t know why you shouldn’t trust me based on needing to make a single correction. Based on this, you shouldn’t trust any human, living or dead, including the reporter who wrote the above article.
I think it’s weird and rude to downvote and correct someone like twenty minutes after they already corrected themselves.
