I’ve had a 7t for I don’t know how many years. I always hate phone shopping. I hope that there is something like fairphone available when this thing dies. I just want to have a replaceable battery. I’d probably still have a phone from a decade ago if I could replace the battery.
And I was suggesting that the middle class already pays a wealth tax as most of their wealth is in their home. I agree with OPs sentiment, but have it start above $5 million and have it pretty steeply progressive.
You’re probably right. I last read part of it for a class about 35 years ago, and I no longer trust my memory anyways.
I don’t remember it being that big of a book.
If you are in my state, it’s taxed via property tax.
I enjoy both ways, but I can’t grasp how people think they are the same.
According to this page, that is just not true.
When you read, your brain is working hard behind the scenes. It recognizes the shapes of letters, matches them to speech sounds, connects those sounds to meaning, then links those meanings across words, sentences and even whole books. The text uses visual structure such as punctuation marks, paragraph breaks or bolded words to guide understanding. You can go at your own speed.
Listening, on the other hand, requires your brain to work at the pace of the speaker. Because spoken language is fleeting, listeners must rely on cognitive processes, including memory to hold onto what they just heard.
Hey thanks. I found 3 claims and almost $200.
I can’t imagine this helping someone, but on the off chance, if you used org and are wondering what to use, s/org/li/ works for me and seems quicker than the gone one.
Saw them live 3 times before that shit. Never listened to a single song since.
He also says that he has backups, so “lost” seems a little apocalyptic. Hard to feel too bad for someone who is that invested in a corporation though.
OK, let’s be “generous” and agree to that figure. Or twice that. It doesn’t change a thing I said, and nobody will ever find me defending Stalin, unless their lenses are crazy colored.
Nope, you asked the question and I gave a decent answer. Never ever said Stalin was other than evil. Goes down in history with Hitler and Pol Pot. Again, you are the one who asked. And…you keep using that phrase. I do not think it means what you think it does. You can’t be bothered to give a reasoned response, so I can’t be bothered to get dumber reading anything else you have to say. Or as you seem to gargle out yip yip (Avatar rocked. The animated show, not the movie) and whaddabout whaddabout whaddabout. Which was the original freaking discussion ya dummy.
Yep, bad dude. Bad, bad dude. His boss was too. You didn’t, and won’t, get any argument on that from me. But you come across as one of those people who talk about systematic racism and knee jerk react by saying,“I’M NOT RACIST”. All I said was capitalism causes a fuckload of pain, suffering, and death as well. You were of the opinion that capitalism is somehow immune to evil or something. And I’m not sure why you keep saying sit down. The only time I type on here is when I’m at my desktop, and I don’t have a standing desk. You need to try to come up with something more appropriate. Or you know, just shut the fuck up with your capitalist boot licking, grow up, take some classes, and realize humans really suck when they get any type of power, whatever political clothes they wear.
What the fuck are you on about? I guess it’s easy for a smooth brain moron to hype up gross mass murder as somehow way worse than prolonged systematic suffering and death. You’re a fucking lost cause.
Before the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the archival revelations, some historians estimated that the numbers killed by Stalin’s regime were 20 million or higher.[5][6][7] After the Soviet Union dissolved, evidence from the Soviet archives was declassified and researchers were allowed to study it. This contained official records of 799,455 executions (1921–1953),[8][9][10][11][12] around 1.5 to 1.7 million deaths in the Gulag,[13][14][15] some 390,000[16] deaths during the dekulakization forced resettlement, and up to 400,000 deaths of persons deported during the 1940s,[17] with a total of about 3.3 million officially recorded victims in these categories.[18] According to historian Stephen Wheatcroft, approximately 1 million of these deaths were “purposive” while the rest happened through neglect and irresponsibility.[2] The deaths of at least 5.5 to 6.5 million[19] persons in the Soviet famine of 1932–1933 are sometimes included with the victims of the Stalin era.[2][20] - wikipedia
So being generous we’ll go high and say 10 million
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), around 9 million people die annually from hunger and malnutrition, mostly in regions where capitalist-driven global inequality has made basic necessities unaffordable or inaccessible.
So less in a year due to capitalism (ignoring wars and whatnot) than the total of Stalin. But also dealing with huge differences in populations involved. Both seem pretty shitty if you ask me.
Copyparty is easy, but if you can both set up syncthing, that makes it a breeze. I have a sibling that lives across the Pacific and last time they visited I set up syncthing on their laptop and when either of us wants to share something, we just drop it in that folder and wait a minute or two.
Could be better, but still a huge step up from the hate rhetoric magats get spoon fed 24/7 from Fox and friends.
Haha, that’s like my mom telling my kid (20+ year old), that his using Discord is “going to radicalize you” because she read about someone who was radicalized while spending too much focus on some idiot maga discord channel.
I am NOT a power user of my phone. That said, I’ve liked YAM Launcher for a while. It is minimalist and does everything I want in a launcher.
