He has a very strong moral justice bent, likes things a certain way or not at all, likes wear certain clothes only, so yeah the show plays him and Neagley as autistic.

A more mundane one, but people on reasonably normal incomes living in a house that's at least one order of magnitude more expensive than they could ever afford even if they purchased it twenty or thirty years ago. Its particularly bad in things set in expensive areas like London or New York or Tokyo. Like being able to afford a house in central London rather than renting a flat with three other people takes substantial money, you aren't going to be afford that if you work in a supermarket.

No having to sign in on the prison log, no being on the cameras, far easier to hide who she spoke to, especially if it was on the phone to Donnie while she was out

So this is obviously McDonald's but manufacturing suffers a similar path:

1. Make high quality and respected product onshore
2. Get purchased by vulture capitalist
3. Lower standards to increase profit
4. Product is offshored to cover up falling sales
5. Quality nosedives
6. Once the customer base catches on sales nosedives
7. Lower quality even more and brand becomes a joke
8. Get purchased by mega conglomerate who collects brands like Pokémon
9. Rival product gets made onshore by a small team who used to work for you

See Doc Martin and Solvair or Hunter Wellingtons or any other of a large number of former halo brands. Filson is one going through this right now

Always hated that they pretend you cant tax unreleased gains when they are perfectly capable of raising loans against them. If unrealized gains can be used to secure loans then they have a quantifiable value that can be taxed.

Big part of this would be that its a foiling boat and that massively reduces drag from the water. Keeping weight and drag down are the secret to improving efficiency for EVs be they boats or cars. Any decent marina its easy to get multiple 22kw shore supply as well, it can be expensive and metered but you aren't going to be waiting that long to recharge your boat.

Electric makes the most sense on sail boats as they already have a green source of energy, and thanks to hydro they can convert some of that motion generated by the wind into charge for the batteries. Couple with solar and you start to look at a decent amount of energy generation.

Sail boats also tend to have far less powerful ICE than your average motor yacht, so you need less powerful EV motors to achieve the same speed, and in the right conditions you only really need the motor getting in and out of the harbor so your battery bank is smaller and lighter. Plus you could make the batteries do double duty as the house batteries as well.

The trick will be to get the super rich out of their shitty super yachts that burn a couple of thousand dollars of fuel per hour, they could already have sail boats but choose not to for the increased living space that they can get out of the same length of boat due to being able to build much higher due to no masts.

It's surely being done to appease the orange toddler as he wants Biden dragged through the courts as he was. Small problem is that either Bidens a much smarter criminal than Trump and didn't leave any evidence, or he just wasn't criminal enough to warrant charging.

Elon normally throws a dead cat like this onto the table every time he plans on either increasing his compensation or he plans on selling a bunch of shares as in the past the dead cat has boosted the share price. Funding Trumps campaign cant be cheap. I'm glad that the market seems to be finally cottoning on to his grifting with this.

So this rise for Denmark does not kick in on people born before 1970, so it does not count for baby boomers or the oldest and usually wealthiest sub set of Gen X. Oh, also Danish politicians can still retire at 60 right?

This is fairly typical with these age rises, applies to everybody BUT the largest group who have caused all the problem by being the largest group and who often haven't paid their fair share in a lot of schemes as a lot of state pension schemes are a Ponzi scheme rather than an actual investment fund, including the Danes as its paid directly out of taxation.

This means all the poor fucks who will now retire later will still be paying for that largest ever group to retire at an earlier age.

What is particularly insidious with this type of change is that the private pension age has also been raised for people in the UK. This means even if you can afford to you cant take it as early as you once could. Absolutely done because they will be means testing the UK state pension at some point.

Clearly, its the tap dance feature within open source firmware, QMK, that is rising in popularity. People just want to be able to double tap and tap and hold for extra functionality on their keyboard and trackballs.

Mackie has never struck me as charismatic enough of an actor to lead a franchise as big as Captain America, hes just so boring to watch, its like he isn't even there.

Couple that with what seems to be another bland script from the goofs that brought us Falcon and the Winter Soldier and I am not surprised it sucks.

The problem is always that Disney is trying to cut costs on the directors, writers and actors by picking TV level people. Its pretty obvious this hasn't worked so far and that they have had to press the panic button to get as many of the OGs back as possible.

I would imagine Rishi and Elon are quite closely aligned when it comes to workers rights, so do not expect any worker or privacy protections coming out of this AI summit, just the opposite. I would however expect some sort of protection for the likes of Twitter from being used for unpaid language model training.

He was also significantly over weight during this period with little exercise and, in a high stress job (not that it stopped him from his afternoon naps).

He also caught COVID quite early on (Late March), which was no surprise as he liked to attend parties when all this was going on, and was hospitalised for one on one care early for preventative care including oxygen back when oxygen was being restricted for preventative care.

I am not suggesting the PM shouldn't have had the best care available, more that hes proven to lack empathy of anything he hasn't experienced himself, so is highly unlikely to understand just how overloaded the NHS was at this point and that his experience was anything other than privileged.

My favorite fact about Iceland is that it was a dry country, with beer being banned until 1989. Home brew is limited to 2.5%.

Strong alcohol is only really sold at state ran shops called Vinbudin hat often have weird opening hours.

Its also very expensive, majority of the cost being tax.

Also didn't his mother help get him the contract to provide ms dos for IBM? And didn't he buy MS-DOS using dad's money?

I just copy and paste them from Wikipedia

I would suggest that it was the broad outline of the same ending he planned and shared with DnD just implemented badly. He's probably more pissed that they made his ending so unpopular by completely botching the landing as he now can't use that same ending without risk of rejection. I still maintain it would have sucked as an ending even if it had been implemented at the same standard as series 5, but what we got made it far far worse.

They were told by the Studio that they needed to add a veteran actor to the cast for season two, Danny was one of the choices so obviously they picked him

That its being co hosted will backfire on the US. If it was just the US and nobody turned up they can and will blame football for that rather than their own idiocy, but because Mexico and Canada are also hosting matches if they get great attendance then its clearly an issue with the US.

If you want to go, go to the matches in Mexico or Canada, spend your money there.

I am sorry Mario, your job is in another castle.

But seriously, best of luck
