I'm betting there's another reality where antimatter dominates over matter and the whole situation is reversed. Everything stays that way on either side until one or the other of them produces a civilization able to punch a hole through whatever it is that separates them. When that happens the two sides equalize but when they hit perfect balance the whole thing explodes in the next big bang where the amounts of matter and antimatter on each of the sides gets knocked out of balance again.

Dumbass.

What percentage of that was a result of COVID. Just a simple request for information if anyone happens to have the answer handy?

Democrat! Democrat! I found the Democrat!

Seriously. "Nazi"? There are no Nazi's here. I'm not sure what Trump's followers are but they're not Nazi's and you guys just sound like imbeciles shouting it to the heavens.

Simple enough solution. Don't be a whore maybe?

Go home. You'll be happier, we'll be happier. It's really a win-win for everyone. First person to find a way to get Texas back to around 17 million people is my hero.

Your assumption is correct. UBI is just another form of welfare.

UBI is disillusion of utopia.

It can work for the small scale just like other forms of welfare.

But at scale, it degrades into wealth distribution and then just communism.

The full scale (no jobs) is an impossibility. At that point the self-aware robots control the money, Once again is welfare for the humans. No Wall-E utopia, where humans do nothing and get paid, unfortunately.

Texas stands ready to set Apple up. Well, all them but Greg Abbott. He's sitting but feels the same way.

RPI will just get increasingly bugger fans, and will be replaced by a Risc-V based SBC.

I don't care. He killed my mom.

"Sounds like grounds for a search warrant to me. They cancelled the service and object to ads? Break it down!"

Have you seen the text ads on your car stereo when it's on FM yet? On my 2018 Silverado there's a law firm that uses the text scroll that shows the names of the songs to add in "In an accident? Call xxxxxxx Law" and then their number scrolls by. That feature showing the name of the song and the artist was useful. Actually useful and they still do it for the first 30 seconds of the song and right before it switches to the next but the rest of the time the station shows that stupid ad for the ambulance chaser. I don't use my cars AM/FM anymore. No use for it.

Had no idea. I'm going to make some money and a lot of Mac nerds happy (That's what? 10 of them?) by discounting it at least 50% off of that crazy $250 price point!

Yeah, Paxton is a damned mystery. That is the creepiest, most corrupt dude I've seen hold office in years and yet the man is nigh invulnerable. I'm a conservative and I'm constantly trying to figure out who is voting for this clown?

And like every other red state it's covered in blue "sores" called major cities. That's where the population is going and that's where the future state officeholders are going to come from. I'm not for it. I'm mostly conservative and yeah, I wish all these people coming in from out of state would go the fuck home but I'm also not deluding myself about it. It's inevitable. People cluster in cities, Democrats run for office promising them all the free shit they can imagine and get elected. More people come in for the jobs and free shit. Cities are economic engines and Houston (where I am at for example) is a big one. As more Democrat policies come online property taxes start to rise but more people keep coming and eventually they start floating bonds. In Houston/Harris County we flipped local government in 2018. Since then the Democrats in charge of the county have spent every dime they could get their hands on and borrowed even more. Now here in my nice, comfy, Republican controlled red state I get tents on sidewalks, crap and needles on the ground, and high taxes going higher. The solution is simple. Go rural. It's not optimal but I'll be damned if I'm going to stay here.
