This sounds batshit insane, and it is, but it is also true. In the USA, anyway. What is even the job of the government under capitalism if not to fix this kind of shit.

You see this a lot in the comment sections of short videos complaining about men. The expectations are wild. Of course they’re unrepresentative, but these women clearly are out there.

Surprised this isn’t already a thing. Any mainstream social network is very very soon going to be completely useless for political discourse.

Isn’t the French national debt wildly out of control? I guess they could raise taxes instead.

Maybe not the lions? Unless you think men fighting over harems of women is cooperation.

You can move freely in the EU, but all the non-legal barriers are the same as everywhere else.

I see you want to live in the US after all. Valid thing to do. But don’t complain about the consequences.

As an individual: Definitely leave. Generally I think some people ought to shut up and get the hell out instead of impotently complaining online.

I think what these posters are asking about, though, is how it is possible that the American people in aggregate support this system? And they do. Just like how about half of Israelis support Netanyahu. Sure sure. Electoral college, voting system, bla bla. Trump won the popular vote against Harris. How? This is clearly an electorate that itself is the problem. The people of the US doesn’t suffer under its government. The people of the US suffers because it chooses to.

Yeah, it’s not looking good. There are still bookstores, but more and more it feels like a niche thing.

It never meant anything anyway. The US always got waivers for everything because we apparently can’t survive without Microsoft et al

Hmmm… Not a fan. Any new box should have at least ML upscaling, ML ray reconstruction, and support for cooperative vectors. RDNA3 is PS5-level tech. Hope Valve picks either RDNA4 or UDNA for the gpu of whatever comes next

Eh, dunno about denmark, but Norwegian books are like 3x the price of the same book in German. That’s mostly because it’s a small market that still needs translation, though. Doubt fiddling with the VAT will make much difference.

This is true. CEOs generally last very short before they’re fired. Any normal person would be set for life by their compensation package, though.

It would have cost you nothing to not write this.

Apparently the arm doesn’t work that well.

Dunno, but the airlines object to the same thing because they want to sell add-ons, insurance, car rentals, and bonus programs. Maybe there’s something similar going on?

Roborock seems to be the nvidia of robot vacuums. They’re not always the best, but are seen as a safe choice, and they have the best app. I gave up on reading tests since apparently models are refreshed every monday, and just got a roborock.

The best vacuum is apparently the Dreame X50 Ultra Complete, and you can actually find it in stores still, but it costs like 1200 euros or something insane like that.

Tldr it’s a market for lemons, sadly. Everyone copes by getting Roborock. The one known good one costs as much as a 5080.
