Yes alcohol is bad. Then again, it seemed like it was the only drug that helped with my panic attacks, and generalized anxiety. Benzodiazepines(mainly Klonopin) helped a bit, but dealing with MD's is tedious, and…
Don't forget free healthcare, education, work/privacy laws that put most countries to shame, decent homless shelters. They live longer. They are happier on every metric compare to Americans. I never berate France, once…
I think I'm shadowbanned, but at this point don't care. I know I didn't insult anyone, but wasen't going to kiss the moderator's ego. This moderator actually emailed me (And that wasen't in the nonexistent TOS), and…
1. A federal right to repair law needs to be enacted. 2. Yes--most people coud care less about ease of reparability, but most people don't know what's best for them anyways? 3. If you buy something, you should have…
1. He raised the price of a drug legally. Yes, I was flabbergasted. He had the audacity to raise the price all at once. The rest of the heathens raise it over inflation, hoping we will not notice. I don't think strict…
"This page will reload due-----." I really loved my iPad, but like you, will probally not buy new again. As to receiving regular OS updates, you need to be careful. The new operating systems usually slow down an older…
"The benefits of some of those advances are questionable at best. Spending the last decade of your life commuting to doctor's offices (or bedridden) ain't no picnic, nor is rotting away in a forgotten corner of a human…
I can't afford a Tesla, or really any new car, but I love simple machines that just work. I have an old 80's Toyota truck that I just can't part with. It wasen't over engineered, nor complicated. Just a vechicle I can…
My only gripe is everyday the system seems more rigged. The farmer can work their hands to the bone, but still can't compete with the wealthy farmers surrounding their farm. Are the wealthy farmers just better workers?…
It seems like the sorting/packaging facilities would be ripe for unionization. Then again, I could picture Bezos moving whenever union talk started? As to why he's doing it? I think the bad press he's been getting over…
Watch repair: The watch repair manual, by Fried Practical watch repairing, by De Carle The Swiss Watch repairer's manual, by Jendritzki (This book is great, but don't pay more than $75. After Fried's book it pulls in…
1. You're right about filthy and understaffed. (Not so sure about understaffed, but the stores were dated aesthetically.) 2. Sears is way past its business cycles. I don't think anyone would disagree. That's why they…
1. Why are they doing this? Is it to create goodwill? It it an advertisement for their servers? I honestly think they know the tech party is about to end, and they want to keep the persistent gold miners, along with…
The Rand Corporation did a study on AA years ago. AA didn't work in their study. Then again, it's basically all we have? I think my problem is when the AA beliefs are yelled at other members like they were laws. As a…
1. She's blaming the imaginary. She needs Professional help. 2. I understand you can't deal with it. 3. Get her professional help if you can. 4. I understand the poor whom turn their backs. I don't understand when the…
Edit: "My view of the future is we will be catering to the Wealthy." Oops--and if you think I'm wrong explain? I dropped out of Chiropractic School because I just didn't believe in it. It cost me $20,000. The only thing…
Yes, we were. And 200 years ago most people were essentially homeless. In a weird way, they had it better than our current homeless. At least they had a fighting chance to better their condition? Would I rather be in…
If it stopped corruption, and nepotism I might not be so opposed to this invasive immoral technology. I grew up not liking to be photographed. It was a combination of being homely, but it was more? There's probally a…
A lot of us were conditioned under Job's tenure at Apple. Every device seemed magical. I have a relative who's an Apple addict. She literally has a unopened desktop that is five years old. She bought it as a spare. She…
Along with more cameras. Along with DNA analysis. The poor, and disenfranchised can't commit crimes. It's a negative sum game. Only the very stupid, or very despirate can take the risk. Now--the wealthy can run their…
"For that matter, how many people even change their own brakes (one of the easiest DIY tasks, IMO)?" Most poor people, middle class (what's left). Although rental agreements, and section 8 leases prohibit working on any…
In America, I've met very few guys who really wanted the wife, and kids. I look back at most families, and so many started with, "You're what?". In fact, many of us don't want the things we are told we need? I think…
"Nowadays you can get good robotized gearboxes that have almost none of the disadvantages, except for a slightly higher price." 1. These automatic transmissions are still the weak spot on most vechicles. 2. They still…
I don't think it matters to those that can afford the service? Amazon captured peoples trust, and those with funds buy their counterfeit, overpriced goods. Along with that Prime scam. (I have kept track of their…
