I don’t understand that either! Sometimes I think people are so numerally illiterate and emotionally butthurt that they completely disregard carrying and opportunity costs.

This is an over generalization. How can you support that this is true other than for yourself alone?

Sometimes the unfiltered things I discuss in private are for the purpose of getting feedback. A brainstorming space without any of the regular inhibitions censoring free thought. I’m not looking for affirmation, but genuinely want to see what the unfiltered feedback would be, and am ready to change my option on a dime.

Take this to the next level: you do this in your own mind / imagination before you speak. You think things that you don’t say. So is everything in your mind, even things you think are wrong and choose not to express, your true self? And you should be ashamed of shameful thoughts?

Also what do you even mean by “true” self? If I act differently around different groups of people, which one is true?

Just a nitpick (I’m still against trickle down), but how do we know those sectors boomed from the stimulus, vs from people using those services more because they were quarantined? Video conference platforms also took off—that wasn’t from gen pop citizens spending their stimulus.

Wow base building and the bubble expanding? That’s decent. All part of odyssey I imagine? I’m still on horizons.

That was my take as well. She even closes with asking us if we’re reacting to actual problems, or just what people perceive as problems (in other words, spirit or letter of the “law”).

I’m on the fence. It’s a pretty subjective topic no? Public spaces will always have conflict due to many people have many preferences.

So Lexx?

Wait, no currency?

I can understand if you want to do away with stock market contract tomfoolery. But me having to barter my goods and services all the time sounds exhausting.

What kind of updates?

I often think about this too, though a quick search about house spiders did suggest to me they have a decent chance of survival through winter. I don’t think human structures have been around long enough for species to have adapted to be dependent on them.

It was word of mouth for me. But now you’ve got me curious about occurrences of the term Lemmy on Reddit.

Is there an equivalent to TwoXChromo here?

Can you elaborate? Are there a lot of security holes in systemd? (Genuine question)

Did the (anti)protagonist shape shift that much in Phlebas? And even then would it have been a problem for the series? Money no object after all…

I hated it for being a clip show.

Yeah and also if the school really doesn’t care about it getting back to the rightful owner, they should just throw everything out.
