Whenever I play minecraft I always play survival mode. Creative mode just doesn’t interest me.
Being super rich and filling one’s house with expensive shit sounds like creative mode.
It just sounds so boring.
“Your objective: spend at least $3M on this room”
“Ooh I bet I can find some coasters that cost me $50k! ooh goody”
Gaza, duh
DOGE is making recommendations to the office of the President. It’s the President’s authority on which these changes are made. They’re happening in executive branch departments, which are all under Presidential authority.
Yeah that’s the problem: authority as such
Well, there’s always the next President
“Only those who are not patriots would oppose the PATRIOT Act”
— naïveté in a nutshell
We protected democracy when we punished the party that skipped an election. We sent the signal that it is not acceptable to skip an election. That is good for democracy. It would have been very bad to reward the Democrats for skipping their primary.

enterprise resource planning??
Not really because people can die without food, and also without insulin. Nobody is choosing between diamonds and insulin.
Insulin is expensive because of a government-enforced monopoly. It’s a simple fact, no matter how motivated one is to ignore it.
Yeah I know. One of the big differences between prescription drugs and food, in terms of the industries, is that anyone can bake bread and therefore the only reason to buy it at the store is if the loaf at the store costs less time and energy than making it oneself.
Is how to manufacture insulin a trade secret? Is that why there’s no black market for it?
Twitch ‘fo dat bitch
You’re only deciding between insulin and groceries because the government maintains some company’s monopoly on manufacturing insulin.
In an actually free market, the instructions would be open source and the only question would be whether to synthesize it at home or pay someone else to synthesize it for you.
My guess is it would cost about as much as chocolate does per unit mass.
Yes they do. I follow an astronaut on X who’s got tons of photography equipment on the ISS and regularly posts shots of various cities at night and weather formations as seen from space. It’s pretty cool.
Oh boy I can’t wait until his robotic taxis make my uber job obsolete. I sure hate driving around, talking to people, and listening to music all day.
I may be living with my parents in my 40s here if my current financial trend continues

Incidentally I didn’t even realize that comment had been removed. Weird.
Another idea is an asking system that compiles answers from the web while also posting the question here. Gives the benefit of immediate answers while also populating the fediverse.
