Yeah I always think that we know their wealth because it is in shares of publicly traded companies but you know it’s some Saudi oil baron or Russian Oligarch that is actually wealthier. My guess is probably Putin takes top spot and then the Saudis.

That bubble also includes everywhere I have been which covers a good chunk of the west coast, southwest, and northeast. Where are these people that want to move to China? I think the only spots we haven’t covered is like Alabama and Oklahoma? So maybe they are there?

That does not look like a ton of snow. I park in higher snow than that every year when I drive out to the mountains to ski. That would be about the amount of snow I park in the driveway with after it’s been plowed and sat for a couple hours with snow fall.

Well that sounds like a good time. It’s people working together to make the best of a tough environment.

If only they paid $14 billion, it would have included the base64 to image capability.

First there are the basics of linguistics since the British and India have a bit of shared history but that has certainly helped India to integrate itself into the western business environment. There are now huge numbers of western countries leveraging outsourcing for business resources and if India keeps distancing itself from the West, those integrations will start to look more like liabilities to western businesses. Next, I can’t imagine that the business opportunities with Russia can rival North American plus the EU so it seems odd to align with Russia when it could jeopardize a very beneficial relationship for India. Finally, due to immigration, there are large populations from India across the entire western hemisphere, I would think that would drive solidarity with the west. I know little about India so maybe those points are not accurate but those are my interpretations.

I’m always surprised to read the news and see India preferring the Russian partnership over that of the West.

I’ve been bitten by this. I’ve gotten a battery warning in the AM at the start of a day and had my mouse die in the early afternoon. It’s annoying that I can’t just charge it while working so I had to dig around for another mouse and use that while it charged. I hate that I have to check the charge on it and then forget after a while because it does last a long time. So it’ll die on me and I’ll get good about checking charge for a few days and then forget for a while and boom it happens again. If Apple sold this config I would definitely replace my current mouse with a better design.

Big plot twist, vatniksplatnik is a coworker with Persona3Reload!

You got me curious as well so I googled it and it looks like CarPlay just uses the screen as a monitor with no messages or anything downloaded:

Now I wonder what kind of system these vehicles have that downloads text messages. Is that a function of the Bluetooth connectivity or is it a vendor application?

They should just piss everyone off universally and give him like a Gilbert Gottfried voice.

I’ve never used IG but I feel like it would be a $3.99/month type of service. This price just tells us they are making way more than that serving ads or that your ad data alone is worth a decent bit of cash.

I think this shows that Bill Murray could play Putin in a biopic.

It was admittedly a low effort comment posted exclusively because it made me chuckle. Sometimes it’s the little things in life that make the day worth completing.

It sounds like the individual responsible, Palm Grove Elementary School Principal Myrta Garza could still be a threat to additional students though. I know it’s Texas but there has to be some group there that can investigate this individual.

I don’t see any possible issues with salt solutions near metal components. I mean cars drive through salt all the time and it’s not like they rust. The whole in the floorboard of my car is obviously a feature that was time-delay delivered.

Nah. We watched the Russians blow up the buildings in realtime without even worrying if military personnel were housed there. IIRC that was the theater bombing one that I am thinking of.

It’s a very strong economy just not for the bottom 90% of people.

I’m pretty sure there was increased focus on her due to how heinous her experience was. She was filmed having been beaten and stripped in the back of a truck being driven by chanting terrorists. I mean it doesn’t really get any worse. Others has the same experience but hers was caught on camera very clearly. That is a big differentiator.

The lady at the local dispensary said that most of the product is grown in state to ensure it’s not a felony to cross state lines with it. She did say that in the earlier days there was shady practices in driving things up from Cali but now it’s all in state.
