Best Buy honestly isn't that bad for a fair number of consumer electronics -- you can get decent deals on TVs for example.
Fortunately books 4-6 can't be spoiled because they're gibberish and nobody understands them.
Up until volume 3 at least. After that, Herbert kind of went off the rails.
Oh do they have proof that he was killed?
Do I think the medical examiner and all the other investigators are right and he killed himself, or do I believe in a vast, shadowy conspiracy requiring all those parties plus the prison guards, plus whoever controlled access to the federal prison building to function? A conspiracy whose goals seem to silence him, with the assumption that he had something juicy on powerful people, something that wasn't kept in with the other blackmail materials that law enforcement actually had possession of, and something that he had never decided to use before to save his own neck? And that suicide wouldn't make sense when he was almost certainly going to spend the rest of his life in prison, where he had already been assaulted and was in constant fear?
Yes, I think he killed himself.
Several of the cameras were still working. Not a very effective conspiracy.
"We'll see if he "kills himself in prison at the same time the cameras malfunction". He lost access to all those funds so he isn't able to make protection payments or party donations."
Some of you people need serious psychiatric help.
"A decent private school costs anywhere from $2500-8000/year."
Are you on crack?!
Getting kids off of social media is good for them, but it shouldn't be paired with Florida running it's already-pitiful educational system into the ground. The politicians doing this are purely doing it because they can't control social media the way they can the school systems.
MBAs: Let's outsource and cost-cut our way into danger!
Right-wing idiots on Slashdot: Der her look what DEI did!
Are you that easily tricked by stupid right-wing talking points?
See, here's the thing -- salaries are highly dependent on location. You might be able to get a beautiful, 3000 square foot house in Trumpistan, Alabama, but if the only jobs are "Walmart cashier" there then it's not going to help you very much. The fact that people can't understand this in 2024 baffles me.
A lot of companies won't (and probably shouldn't) care about items 1 and 2, and won't care that much about 4.
Now do housing costs.
