When I replaced the batteries in my earbuds I broke the left one. It shouldn’t be this hard to replace a part that eventually dies

Because Polish farmers are bitching about Ukrainian imports into Poland decreasing local prices

Better late than never. Instead of criticizing then for it, we should be encouraging it

It’s actually the stock market that’s ridiculous for closing at all. It causes big problems like gaps in trading prices where you can easily miss the stop price.

It’s 99% automated and we still follow the work schedule of New York for no reason

I’m downvoting you because nobody asked about silver

Let’s not get it twisted, any Chinese company is tightly controlled by the government.

Because the front screen on my pixel fold is actually smaller

The department of education is the federal department. Most people in education work for the states

Oh, so there are authors that never read a story before and just made it up in their heads?

There is no real difference between AI and humans in respect to borrowing elements from other stories.

I don’t think we should give away weapons to Israel, but why should sales be blocked? Israel has a right to defend itself.

Yes, I put everything on my credit card and get miles I can use to fly business class. I have credit card debt at all times, I’m just paying off last month’s expenditures on time so I don’t pay interest
