15-20 years ago I lived on about subsistence minimum for about 5 years.
No subscriptions. No TV. No car. No kids. Cook myself only cheapest food, no tobacco, no alcohol, no candy. Most of my furniture was used. Moved to a cheap-ish part of the country.
Duck auto carrot.
Jokes aside, I prefer to have errors be marked with an angry red squiggly line and suggestions. No automation beyond an upper case letter at the beginning of a sentence. Even that is too much on a computer.
Takes longer and usually don’t get it hot enough.
Vim takes your keyboard shortcuts to the extreme. If you can be bothered to learn it.
Whatever as long as it’s not sweet potato.
I’m convinced my old car was haunted. Flickering lights, unexplained movements, the muffled screams of the damned from the glove compartment.
I don’t live in the US, I only care for your foregin policy. I’m all for immigration for anyone who can be bothered to work and pay taxes with the rest of us. In fact if you manage so sneak into the country and pay tax you should be given a temporary residence permit just for the trouble.
If you have been a permanent resident for a long time you should be allowed to become a citizen. If your parents were here for a few years when you were born I’m not convinced it’s a good idea.
We should definitely accept refugees. They have an urgent need of safety. If they get a job and pay taxes I don’t see an issue with giving them permanent residency either. A permanent resident does not have the same urgent need of becoming a citizen.
Why is cultural diversity an advantage? It’s mentioned in the political debate by both sides as either essential or with disdain. I don’t understand why either side would be correct in this case.
I see a clear disadvantage, but I’m willing to listen to the arguments for the other side before I make up my mind.
No. What’s the advantage for me as a citizen?
I’ve been to two. For one I was the designated driver.
My up/down votes gets as much attention as their importance warrants. None at all.
Always invert. When you’re thinking about any problem, try to figure out how you can make it worse, then make really sure you avoid doing that.
Want to be happy? Find out what makes you sad and if you can avoid it.
Want to lose weight, how do people who try to gain weight go about it?
Want to convince someone of something? How do you go about making sure they will dig their heels in?
Need to carry a couch up a flight of stairs? How do you break you back and pinch your fingers?
Number of users. Takes a lot of users to keep all the small niche communities alive.
Political skew. You don’t benefit from being in an echo chamber. It will also drive away people you don’t agree with politically but do enjoy the same niche hobbies. Not sure about you but I’m much more interested in my hobbies than politics.
Guessing something like 5-6 days. Staying at home with no human contact scheduled that is about the limit of my tolerance of filth vs laziness.
Atheist. I’m quite relaxed about it as long as I don’t have to take part in the silly rituals. I’ve dated a lot of picky eaters so I’m okay with not having bacon at home or whatever your dietary restrictions may be.
You probably would not appreciate me punching you in the face and taking your phone. If I’m stronger than you there is not much you can do. If you get the entire tribe involved then you can.
That being said every legal system is perfectly adapted to how society was in the recent past.
In public spaces and every day life no.
Sports yes.
Pledging allegiance to the flag in school? That is absurd.
Yes. I don’t have any kids though.
A piece of paper and guesswork to begin with many years ago.
My bank app has an automated thing that guesses (i can correct it but it’s right 90%) what every non cash transaction is and puts it in a category.
I can go back and look through how much things have cost me month by month.
