It does what it needs to, albeit poorly, for a handful of cents per pen. Once you start viewing them as disposable instead of trying to keep them until they’re out of ink, it makes more sense.
These are the pens put out where they’re going to get lost or taken, pocketed by the general public. I’d say their biggest flaw is that they don’t work on hard surfaces, so they suck for signing receipts on counters.
Your brain doesn’t have enough VRAM to keep the simulation humming when it comes to generating accurate text and numbers
I’m so mad about the time I had to spend learning about the fucking food pyramid
It depends on the individual province. Some are legal and regulated, some are just decriminalized. Or kinda anywhere between. It doesn’t seem to be fully illegal anywhere
I feel like being faced with your own imminent demise definitely gives you some honorary adult points. If anything I want to say this is possibly the best possible case and way for this to occur.
Kid is dying, knows they’re dying, and is at the age where they’d likely be experimenting sexually with peers if they weren’t constantly in the hospital. They’re adult enough to be aware of and want to engage in one of the quintessential human experiences.
Age of consent in Australia is 16, they’re 15, and prostitution is somewhere between legal and quasi-legal there. Because the act is with a prostitute, it removes the weirder gross aspects of, “emotionally or physically attracted to someone younger,” and also removes the potentially problematic power dynamic because it’s purely transactional.
I will cover my guns in cosmoline, wrap them in wax paper, and bury them in a pelican case in the desert before I turn them in or let them be taken.
All of modern logistics is based on a hub and spoke system instead of point to point because it’s cheaper. It’s also why it’s impossible to find a direct flight unless you live at or are traveling to a a hub airport.
5.56 is ~50 cents a round and has been for years at this point
I also love word, publisher, and visio.
I grudgingly accept outlook.
I despise PowerPoint
It can be, when it isn’t hamstrug by stupid regulations.
In the US the government tends toward being ineffective because it typically isn’t allowed to do much on its own. For almost everything it hires contractors to execute a function and then serves as oversight for the contractor. The only real exceptions I can think of to this outside of the military are the postal service, the forest service, and the FAA. All of which are pretty notably effective considering the depth and breadth of the service they provide, and provide high quality, long term employment.
Nah this is perfect
Whenever I see people bemoaning the system, (which I agree is fucked, overall) I always wonder if they’ve bothered to write/call/harass legislators? Because it’s sometimes surprising how much an angry person can accomplish when they decide to be a problem.
I set up targeted harassment of state legislators on reddit and twitter and managed to get weed legalized after it died in committee in the preceding five years.
The thirteenth was Mary Magdalene but we can’t have a woman disciple.
New Year’s Festival. Mandatory day off for everyone except emergency services
It isn’t the cutting it that’s the problem for me, it’s the peeling
Tell me you use an iPhone without telling me you use an iPhone
You need to drink piss now, obviously
Quickly, someone notify Gura!
With a few million people it doesn’t even need to be a specific bank. It would cause an enormous problem. Especially since we’re used to assets being digital these days. Request enough actual physical cash and it would rapidly reach a breaking point.
