Why not do that? Because of inflation, you lose money doing that. It’s the last resort of someone who has no other options for saving their money, such as low level drug dealers.

You mean by investing the stock market? Or literal cash under the mattress?

There are millions of people in the U.S. whose wealth comes from the increase in the property value of their family home. This is unearned wealth.

Of course, you’ll have a hard time convincing most people of that last bit. Which is why billionaires are the more popular enemy rather than the middle class.

Too broad. Wealth hoarder describes everyone with a mortgage as well as grandma Sally and her pension plan. Anyone who saves for retirement is a wealth hoarder.

FTFY

Well hopefully they’re not putting melamine in the milk powder!

That’s just ridiculous to me. Why? I have had fries plenty of times which were way better than McDonald fries and all they were made of was potatoes, oil, and salt. The perfect French fry doesn’t need anything other than that. It’s all about choosing the right potato variety and then it all comes down to cooking technique.

The fact that McDonald puts anything else in their fries just makes me shake my head.

I care less about realism than I do about having interesting decisions to make. I think it’s a really big challenge for game designers to make it fun and interesting for players — even highly skilled ones who love to strategize — without the game bogging down by having too many dice rolls/decisions to make.

All dinosaurs are reptiles, including birds. The major clade of dinosaurs to which birds belong is called theropods. The other well-known dinosaurs, sauropods (including all the huge quadrupedal herbivores), are totally extinct and have only very distant ancestry with birds and other reptiles.

By the way, crocodilians have been around for 250 million years, so they shared the earth with the huge dinosaurs of old! But they are not dinosaurs themselves.

“The other guys are even worse” is never a good excuse. That sort of thinking leads to a downward spiral; a race to the bottom.

There’s a ton of functionality in Photoshop that even pros never use. Every user of Photoshop needs something different from it. Sure, there’s a core of features that everyone uses (and which the Gimp also has) but there’s also countless other niche features that are a crucial part of the workflow for tons of users and they won’t give them up. This is one of the reasons Photoshop is so hard to replace.

It’s also the reason Latex is tough to replace as well. It’s a phenomenon which is not limited to commercial software, that’s for sure.

Sounds like your oven could use a cleaning! Fire up the self-clean and burn all that stuff off, setting off the smoke alarm one last time!

It’s all the smells they encounter on the job! Gets them super hungry!

Definitely stronger than humans, pound for pound, but probably not as strong as gorillas!

You’d have to be really strong to hold a shield that large, with that much steel reinforcement, without strapping it to your arm.

How does one rotate a shield that’s strapped to your forearm?

Seems pretty clear to me: they’re going after the Lego and Minecraft crowd. That is, little kids.

Either way it’s going to organized crime. At least the crypto scammers are unlikely to influence the election!

His theories aren’t discredited. Many people have misconstrued them however. I wrote about this in a reply to someone else.

That would be nice but I don’t think it would have as much impact as you think. People who own multiple dwellings are a tiny minority of owners.
