Well some products will go down at first, the ones they can’t sell to other countries any more the supply will skyrocket until they cut production to reduce their losses. So perishable things like certain food, will possibly decrease for a season, then will go up higher/possibly “sky rocker” as when you produce less your profits are lower, so they will have to mark them up / some people will just stop farming. The possibility of the bees dying out seems more worrisome than the tarrifs long term though for many foods.

What was the mental illness?

In 2025 a chocolate shake is 5.49 at the sonic near me. I thought that was expensive but compared to this thread apparently inflation on milkshakes hasn’t been to bad. Though I’m pretty sure you can get a $10 shake if you start asking them to add every kind of diabetes candy into it.

The last two I read weren’t immigrants, they are born in the U.S. with social security numbers and birth certificates. Well I’m assuming this one has those, being that she’s born and is a doctor here. Practicing doctors require background checks

To do so for the first time in the US. Goes on to explain how the factories are already up and running producing units.

I also know there are other partners not listed in the article producing Nvidia based servers used for AI for Google, Meta, and others.

Source: I diagnose errors/issues for the assembled server racks and confirm they can pass stress tests and such. They are built on an assembly line in the same factory.

They are just paused for the moment, the claim was to allow negotiations, so I’m really wondering what those penguins are going to bring to the discussion. I’m faily sure the are going to just keep living their lives unaware of Trump’s existence. And the supporters will call that a win. DOGE will likely say we saved $50 billion dollars off never talking to or exchanging any goods with the penguins. And MAGA will cheer about all the money that never existed not transferring to their pockets.

And here I thought mother nature was pissed off because we were fucking over the environment. It’s probably because we are fucking over the environment for absolutely shit products.

Wait you don’t just pull the lever you have to pull a rip cord under the lever? Or am I viewing that wrong. Who would think that’s a good idea, just attach the wire to the lever so it unlocks like a normal door handle. That’s some seriously bad engineering.

Nah that sounds like a hardware issue. Software should never dictate whether a door opens. Hell we have laws that require a manual emergency release from inside of trunks (many require it be lighted I believe as well). I don’t see how a hardware could be allowed to rely on software to open a door and be legal.

It’s a constant shame on the empire now

If it actually worked it’s a funny way to say, let’s tax corporations. It would never happen though because it makes line go down.

My first thought was it being an incorrect first line and my brain went “and I’m getting stoned.”

"She got a rock,

And I’m gettin’ stoned"

But then had that very programmed feeling of you shouldn’t say that because you aren’t getting stoned and you don’t want people to think of you as getting up and getting stoned on a Saturday morning. Talk about being programmed to fear what other people think.

Anyways Eric Church has a couple songs I liked

I can’t seem to learn this. I’m so used to being able to edit messages post sending them that I just use the send button as a save command. Type something. Ctrl S, go back and edit.

It’s dumb, but I still do it.

While I get what you mean, they were arrested, detained, charged, and convicted by the state. They will be in a state prison. Unless Trump is going to send the military to raid the prison, I don’t see the state changing its mind.

I may have laughed when I read this line from the judge, “You brought these kids to West Virginia, a place as I know as almost heaven and put them in hell,” Either she has a lot of pride for West Virginia or the cartoonist part was present during the trial as well.

State not federal.

Skimmed the article and had to back glance at the Moscow School District. Had to double check I was still in Kansas. No wonder Dorothy was so damn confused

Yeah but they voted 5-4 to release foreign aid on March 4th. Threatening the courts may work, or it may backfire and the court actually defend each other by ruling by the law.

Note this means tourist areas should see prices drop on food in grocery stores because the supply was being created pre-decreased population. The decreased cash flow will hurt businesses and the suppliers will decrease production as to not have to sell at slim to no margins which will bring the prices back up soon enough (or the farmers/distributers will go out of business themselves).

It will give people in those areas a false narrative for the time being though because they will be happy about lower prices and less car traffic… But all the resteraunts will have less patrons, and less money going to servers, less jobs to be had eventually.

To be more specific the first 100,000 isn’t taxed at 28%. The 44 to 100k range would be, but below that will be taxed at lower percentages. The first ~10k you make is taxed at 10%, and then it increases throughout.
