Well, there’s your problem.

I empathise with the nurses. It will be like Microsoft's level one help centre.

You: I'm having an issue with my Arm. Whenever I try to lift it, it falls off.
Support: Oh no, that sounds really frustrating! I can imagine how annoying it must be to have your work disrupted like that. But don't worry, I'm here to help and we'll get through this together.

You: Okay, what should I try to fix it?
Support: I totally understand your eagerness to resolve this quickly. Having arm issues can be such an inconvenience in our busy lives. But before we jump into troubleshooting, would you mind taking a deep breath with me? These kinds of problems can really raise our stress levels.

You: ...No, I'd just like to know how to fix the arm falling off please.
Support: You're absolutely right, let's focus on the task at hand. I don't want to make this any more difficult than it needs to be. I'm picturing how frustrated I'd feel if I were in your shoes. But please know I'm giving this my full care and attention. Have you tried rebooting your arm since the crashes began?

I thought bill would to busy as CIO for Satan. May God save his evil soul.

No it doesn't
I had an Amex card that I closed.
When a company whom I had cancelled a recurring charge with decided they wanted to keep billing me, Amex reactivated my closed account and sent me the bill.
They attitude was tough luck.
I'm surprised Amex is still around.

I buy the Samsung A5 series. Last one lasted 5 years, my current one comes with 5 years of updates so expect it to last 5 years as well at about 1/3 the cost of Apple.

Then I would argue you didn’t fulfil your obligation to society.
Reproduction by intelligent people is super important. Who is going to keep the country running when you are old. and immigrants is only a temporary solution, as they will also stop having kids once they adopt the countries culture.

Women have traditionally been at a disadvantage in relationships as women were more dependant on them. Thus its more about the financial sacrifice of the man being a sign of commitment to the relationship.

...when it's a happy announcement for most people. Biden fans on social media are pointing out "Two big Biden deliveries for the working class, same day: overtime pay required, and non-competes forbidden. Of course, the MEDIA ignore it."

The sniffiness would be more annoying if they weren't basically correct. The FTA is "Biden's FTA", much, much, much more than the DOJ is "Biden's DOJ" because of independence traditions that Biden respects. Neither change for workers would have occurred under any Republican administration. This is a very, very partisan issue and the American Democratic Party delivering the stuff they say they'll fight for.

But "overtime" is not a string of letters I can find on the Times or Post this morning. Only one mentions "The FTC" banning noncompetes, as if it would have happened under any administration; and that, in a story about a prompt lawsuit opposing it. Slashdot, above, credits "The US" for the win.

I think some recent focus groups had working people looking blank when asked if Biden has done anything for them. That's on the Democrat communications people, of course, but, man, the news media do hate to help them.

The USA AFAIK is the only western country without a strong public healthcare system.
It typically costs Americans twice as much as other OECD countries for worse outcomes.

It a complex problem, but if you had to identify major causes, your complex private insurance system creates layers of inefficiency other countries don't have to bear.
Oracle probably has a HUGE cash cow in running these insurance databases and I can guarantee they will be in lockstep with insurers in lobbying for no change in the US healthcare system.

Another week, another climate doom article on /.
Climate change is now so political, and the financial incentives so perverse (grant money depends on you supporting the narrative) that I doubt anyone can know the truth anymore.

Just as well as I use my left nipple for unlocking.

My wife had an M1 8G air and it was a Miserable stuttering POS.
She sold it and bought a 16G MB M1 Pro which works fine.

Road Death Rates compared per 100k people

Japan 2.5
UK 2.9
Australia 4.1
USA 12.9
Pakistan 13

BUT... if you look at deaths per KMs driven, the USA is still worse, but the intra country number become more similar.

Thus, because the USA has such crap public transport (because of cha ching, Ford, GM), you have to drive a lot more than most other developed countries thus suffer more deaths.
Living in Australia and having visited the USA, my observations for the east coast at least.
- Lots of stupidly big cars/ truck cars
- Lots of selfish drivers around LA that think it's their right to speed and push into queues (In fact no speed cameras in LA to control behavior)
- Lots of modified vehicles that would be illegal in my country
- 4 way stops instead of roundabouts

Try this on then. (Discusses HQ and Ivermectin)

We’ve rolled everything over to Proxmox. No regrets!
