Which is why you are fully in support of cost free tax payer subsidized identification, correct?
Otherwise you want to disenfranchise the poor. Which is it?

The cashier and you bought the same lie.
The store isn't trying very hard to hire or they would raise the wage until they had the employees they wanted and the retention they desired.

The actual complaint is that no one will work random hours each week always under 32 hours for minimum wage. However that doesn't let you look down on the poors so you won't like this.

An airgap seems equally applicable to all models and would serve as a very powerful guardrail.

I have mixed feelings about that. I know I did a lot of tinkering on my PC when I was in high school, and that led me to a CS degree. On the other hand, my career as a software developer has been focused on big data and distributed computing. I hardly do any development locally anymore. There are still ways that we could build tech skills in a world without desktops, but it would require investment and deliberate effort. I think we were fortunate that the factors at play when we were growing up pushed us to build those tech skills ourselves.

The meanings of words changes over time due to their usage. This is true for all living languages. If you want words with static definitions you want a dead language, like latin.

One of these things ended the other is still ongoing.

So all the math in the world is rather pointless when reality shows us that it is wrong.

The issue is simple to solve.

Tax CO2 output by power plants. Heck, just tax heavy metal and radioactive releases. That alone would shutdown coal plants.

This place is now mostly home to right wing kooks and racists, but I repeat myself.

Sad to see what happened to it.

Yes, people get older and wiser over time.
Spread of information is not always a good thing. See the anti-vaxxers and the damage they are doing to our nation and it's economy.

Or maybe you are just stupid.
The fascists aren't defending free speech, go to their safe spaces like gab and say something they don't like. You get the same outcome.

Reddit is a private service, it is not tax payer funded.
Reddit cannot impact your right to free speech. Start your own forum.

Mediatek is a GPL violator. That's even worse.

Sunk costs are gone.
The money is spent. Stop worrrying about it.

The question is what will maintenance cost over the next 20 years.

He said profits not revenue.

No utility should ever generate a profit. The money should be spent on improvements or returned to rate payers.
