There are studies that have shown staying indoors leads to bad eyesight. Combination of lack of UV and focusing on close up things. So there is some truth to sitting close to the TV is bad, even if it was only by accident. https://www.clinicaltrialsarena.com/analyst-comment/time-indoors-shortsightedness/?cf-view

But also, glasses exist. It’s not a major issue.

As a fuckcar crowd, I moved from a rural location to the city. Because, you guessed it, fuck cars.

Yea I travel a bit, and I like talking about how they travel to gleen what kind of person they are. Like big cities? Do they take transit? What kind of activities? Lodging? Adventurous with food? Planned /spontaneous?

But at the same time, I typically move on to non-travel based chat pretty quickly. So I agree with the spirit of the comic.

He does gain some redemption by the end of the third one, but yea I agree the vast majority of the time he’s a twat.

It’s way more likely they have an informant in the chat or the phone itself is compromised. End to end encryption doesn’t protect the "end"s.

What? 32bit has nothing to do with how many threads it can use. Just how much memory it can address.

It sounds like they are exactly trying to hit their old price point by waiting for chips to improve enough. So they can get a big performance boost for similar cost.

As a counterpoint, your salary is mainly a reflection on how much profit can be made by your skillset/location at a given point in time. I’m not a fan of tying people’s worth to their profitability. It’s devoid of any type of ethical concern.

If we as a society tie profitability to societal good, then I’ll be on board.

I guess this is sort of good, letting media encode “Do not motion smooth” might make watching on friends/families TVs bearable now. I’ll just keep my motion smoothing off.

So then you state: The light will become heat energy.

Doesn’t this apply to most religions?

Don’t be ridiculous, 5G cellular is not the same as 5Ghz wifi.

So sure, you can be selfish. But even with a selfish attitude, ignoring responsibilities can have an impact on you. You’re taking a risk, is it worth the potential consequences? Up to you. And yes, you can look at others and see some people get away with shit. But that doesn’t imply you will.

On top of being selfish, you’ll need a large ego to truly believe you will never have serious consequences.

My local library has Bluray as well.

Airplanes, long distance busses, or trains?

Cars a good for long distance travel to the middle of nowhere. Which I personally rarely do, if I need to, I carpool or rent a car.

We have that law in Denver. I think most restaurants ignore it, but it’s a start at least.

Yea, I go out of my way to Microcenter, passing several Best Buys.

There’s a chance you die and that 2 mil will go to someone else vs your payments just stop.

The 100k isn’t matching inflation so you gain less wealth every year versus your potential 2 mil investment matching or beating inflation.

I think the only real reason to do the 100k a year is if you’re not very financially responsible. Which has been the case for many lottery winners.

Edit: Personally not a fan of hoarding wealth outside enough for retirement/security.
