Not able to seems less likely than chose not to. Google has plenty of resources to throw at the problem.

What are the First Principles of investing/personal finance?
Reply in thread
Paying off debts first doesn't seem like a first principal to me since there's contexts where that's not the right move. There's too much nuance to managing debt to generalize it that way I think. If the interest rate is below inflation would be the obvious example. All those people who bought houses or refinanced a few years ago are not better off paying down their debt first when they could be investing that money instead. I think a more defensible first principal would be something about paying down debt faster the higher the interest rate is on the loan.

Violent MAGA dude killed two people for shitting on Charlie Kirk
What's extra fucked up is before the murder happened the family tried to get help from the police but they didn't do anything because the MAGA psycho is from a cop family.

Can't afford fancy mustard but can afford a blue checkbox
Grey Poupon is not fancy mustard. You can buy that shit in any grocery store, it was developed by food scientists and is mass produced in giant semi-automated factories. It's also not particularly expensive. If you can only afford yellow mustard but not Grey Poupon you shouldn't be buying any mustard because your budget is way too tight to be paying for condiments you can get free in a fast food restaurant.

Florida Cop Empties His Gun, Runs For Cover After Acorn Falls On Car and Mistakes It For Shots Fired
If a random loud bang from an acorn falling nearby is enough to get someone to behave like this, they really should not be walking around with a gun. This is completely insane and unhinged behavior.

‘You Will Hear From Heaven’: Trump Shares Private Text From Mike Huckabee Comparing Iran Decision to U.S. Nuking Japan
Mr President, God spared you in Butler, PA to be the most consequential President in a century—maybe ever. The decisions on your shoulders I would not want to be made by anyone else. You have many voices speaking to you Sir, but there is only ONE voice that matters. HIS voice. I am your appointed servant in this land and am available for you but I do not try to get in your presence often because I trust your instincts. No President in my lifetime has been in a position like yours. Not since Truman in 1945. I don’t reach out to persuade you. Only to encourage you. I believe you will hear from heaven and that voice is far more important than mine or ANYONE else’s. You sent me to Israel to be your eyes, ears and voice and to make sure our flag flies above our embassy. My job is to be the last one to leave.
I will not abandon this post. Our flag will NOT come down! You did not seek this moment. This moment sought YOU! It is my honor to serve you!
That is some weird shit.

Trump admin emails air traffic controllers: quit your jobs
Given the persistent and extreme understaffing of air traffic controllers it wouldn't take that many quitting at the same time to have a massive impact.

Tech CEOs keep praising Trump
It's funny to see Bill Gates has become a Trump supporter after he spent the past decades pretending to care about a bunch of causes, like vaccination programs in Africa, that Trump has taken a huge dump all over. Or not really funny so much as horrific and disgusting. I always suspected he was faking it to rehab his image.

Defederation from Lemmygrad.ml
I think this is for the best, there are some seriously disturbed people posting on Lemmygrad. I saw comments cheering on and celebrating the Hamas attack and talking about how they hoped the people who were kidnapped get tortured. Whatever your politics, that is super fucked up and not "legitimate discourse".

Mazda’s DMCA takedown kills a hobbyist’s smart car API tool
Reply in thread
Yep, this looks like a blatant abuse of the DMCA by Mazda. Either Mazda is engaging in scummy behavior or they need better lawyers. Either way, it makes me want to never buy another Mazda.

Epstein survivors say they felt 'degraded' and a 'lack of empathy' from AG Pam Bondi
This hearing was a total disaster for Bondi. There was no hiding what a monster she is, and it's now come out that photographers captured images of her burn book which included info from illegal DOJ surveillance of members of Congress search histories of the Epstein files. Bondi is spying on Congress while they review the Epstein files, a blatant violation of the separation of powers.

What is the funniest instance of reality slapping the spoiled rich person in the face that you have seen?
Super rich guy tried to pick up my then girlfriend at an industry event after party kind of thing. She was not impressed by any of his shit. The look of disappointment on his face after showing off his $250k watch still makes me smile all these years later.

If you could go back in time and stop any one person or group's musical career, who or what would it be?
Ted Nugent. He is just a complete scumbag and without his shitty music career he never would have impacted so many people with his gross bullshit. The world would be better off if his music never existed.

Using Clouds for too long might have made you incompetent
I think its actually that most people generally don't really understand most things beyond the minimal level necessary to get by. Now that the tech industry isn't just a bunch of nerds you're increasingly more likely to encounter people who are temperamentally disinclined to seek understanding of those details.
