Sunk cost fallacy can be a tough cognitive trap to evade

Bud the bananas I bought last week are worth more than 98% of NFTs

Are we really entering the story arc of the US downfall where mainstream Republicans start saying, “actually I think ephebophilia and hemephilia are ok, it’s in the bible”, just like many of their further-right counterparts already do?

JFC America.

Yeah I hope this bites them.

“Look I dunno about you guys, but when I need to tuck in my shirt in front of a young girl whom I’ve just met - I always just lie down on a bed in front of her while staring weirdly at her and then tuck my shirt all the way down and fumble for a while with my dick. That’s just how I was taught to do it” - Rudy Guliani, apparently.

Or from state charges. Which are already substantial.

That was definitely impactful, but I can’t blame gore for that failing, it was a coup subverting democracy.

The judges that helped Bush secure the win were also permanently enshrined in the US’s broken legal system: John Roberts, Brett Cavanaugh, Amy Coney Barrett.

Coles says explicitly that they do not use facial recognition.

Bunnings and Kmart on the other hand did up until 2022, and then backed off after complaints and bad press.

Coles does employ Palantir systems though, which is gross.

Yep. Just the threat of it. For far, far less than Trump has done.

I am no fan of the Clintons but when the Republicans turned impeachment into a political toy in the 90s it lost a lot of weight. And then by the time of Trump it was easy to dispell as a ‘witch hunt’ to his base.

News organizations have in-house usage rules for words, especially modern words that have evolving usage.

Email as a mass noun plural is correct usage, as in “this server handles a massive amount of email every day”. Emails can also be contextually correct as a plural, eg “I received hundreds of emails today”.

As the number of email edited by the department and sent out is being treated as a countable noun, this headline is definitely acceptable usage.

First off fuck Trey Parker and Matt Stone for their dumb take on it at the time, climate change is real and I agree with An Inconvenient truth for the most part (one lake he highlighted as drying up in the US was actually drained by intensive agriculture wells - everything else accurate). But his biggest failing was setting up a carbon trading company literally at the same time he was telling everyone climate change was real, and that the best measure to deal with it was governments setting up carbon trading.

Of course as soon as people whom are wary of this huge claim learn that he has a profit motive, then they’re going to suspect he is only trying to line his own pockets.

All he had to do was spread the message and not be greedy, but he couldnt help himself.

Get rekt bozo

Shot through the front door in the face because she tried the doorknob

Shot through the front door in the face because she was not white and tried the doorknob.

The poor lady killed was Maria Florinda Rios Perez, and she died in the arms of her husband whom was part of the same cleaning crew. She leaves behind four kids including an 11month old.

It references Waymo’s public statement in the article. The article is the webpage that is linked by OP. You can read it if you click the link, and you can see the quote for yourself.

Ah yes, local strays get tagged and collared and have bells. They also have their ‘family’ members who run the bodega they live out of get upset when other people start memecoins to exploit the situation when they are not family. Stray is mentioned nowhere in the article - and yet if fits your narrative so you try to jam the square peg in the round hole.

I’m done talking to this particular brick wall. 🚫

My quote is from the linked article.

Doubling down and re-stating your claims again as fact won’t make reality change.

At the top: state-owned propaganda network that intentionally pushes short, often harmful content to the west, while carefully curating educational videos for their home market. Full of zero budget zero quality dross.

Bottom: scripted show that’s written by a team of comedians with several successful career voice actors, animators and musicians. Every second of every episode is planned and catefully executed.

These are not remotely the same…

The linked article, like the person claimed.

“We send our deepest sympathies to the cat’s owner and the community who knew and loved him"

Picture of cat shows a collar, tag, and bell. It’s a pet.

That was when he thought he’d actually be prosecuted for his crimes.

Then he realized it was all talk - just one mugshot and a fine.

Its because it gets reported as the app using the screen and other subsystems during time its in-focus. So really it’s mostly your screen/wifi/etc using power, not the website as such - but the phone categorizes relevant power draw to the active foreground app that’s preventing the phone from sleeping.

Thanks for digging, that’s cool. I’m glad that some Japanese weirdo actually created this for their art exhibit.
