The phrase is lame corporate BS, for sure. But where does it say that the employees were told to refer to each other using this term? I mean apart from Boing Boing inferring it? As far as I can tell, Zuck had put this dumb motto in a super corny slide, which was riffing off of Instagram's "Ship, Shipmates, Self" values guideline. Just a dumb corporate meeting catch phrase to sum up their new focus. Tons of big companies do this. It's Meme-worthy, I guess. but not news worthy.

Hey, Amazon Prime has free shipping (nope, now any product that is eligible for Prime shipping is marked up in price)
Hey, now Amazon Prime includes a huge music library (nope, now that's additional if you want to listen to most things).
Hey, now Amazon Prime includes free Whole Foods delivery (nope, now that's extra)

On top of it all, Amazon, who used to have competitive prices is no longer the first place to shop for most things. They're too big to worry about value and they've been that way for too long.

Yeah. It's called noticing the word crypto, and quickly moving on. Brains are neat like that.

They sort of are.. but they company is now owned by Tai Lopez's acquisition company. Check the guy out. He's basically a crypto infomercial / fraudster. Steer clear away.

If the price were to drop to near zero, I will buy all the bitcoin in the world for ONE DOLLAR. Now it is worth at LEAST a dollar. CHECK. AND. MATE.

But in all seriousness, given the importance of bitcoin to the history of crypto currency, I could see it being worth something as a historical artifact. Unless every private key were made public, then I guess that would make it worthless. But that seems even less likely than the price dropping below $100.

They also underestimated just how reviled she was on the far left.

As a percentage of total turnout, and by raw count, yes.. but very barely. But Trump actually performed significantly worse in 2020 compared to his main party competitor.

However, given that a much higher vote count went to the two main party candidates (instead of independents or third party) than in the previous election, trump performed a bit worse compared to the Democratic candidate.

2016: vote percentage to main party candidates: 94
2016: Trump got 95.38% of the vote count that hillary received)

2020: vote percentage to main party candidates: 98
2020: Trump got 91.36% of the vote count bidens received

I am weary to assume that Trump (or Biden's) votes indicate approval of that person. I believe this time around there was a higher voter turnout for "not the other guy" than we typically see.

It was a great series, in my opinion. But how does its omission make the list rigged? Just because it's great, doesn't mean that there were not at least 10 other shows with higher viewership numbers. If it were in the top 10, I guaranteed it would have been renewed for a second season. The creators, after all, were all on board, and heavily disappointed that it didn't happen.

You could argue that Beethoven himself, on two different days would also not have produced the same result.

You spelled that wrong. I fixed it for you.

These are NOT subreddits that revolve around topics of Covid Information.

If by "rival" you mean in the way that I rival Toyota by giving hay rides in my back... then sure. Rival. I guess.

As it became a sure thing that the vaccine would be approved it magically changed from an issue of safety to an issue of freedom. There is a group that does not want to rid the US of Covid and they are spending a lot of money to spread FUD.

They're just being one of those people who waste everyones time by trying to be "technically correct". Though I normally hold that this is the BEST kind of correct... in this case, they're not even Technically correct. They're just injecting argument for the sake of wasting comp cycles. I don't know... maybe they have some kind of agenda, or maybe they're just a moron.

But "Middle Class" and "Median Income" MEAN two different things. You are taking the words inside of the term literally. Just because the word "Middle" is in there, doesn't change its well-defined meaning. News Flash: Grape Nuts do not have grapes or nuts in them, and no amount of snark will change that.

There are different standards for defining the term "Middle Class", but median income certainly is not one. Check out Investopedia if you actually care about the definition as opposed to wanting to be "that guy".
