>> For context, Amazon brought in $70 billion in revenue in the third quarter of 2019 alone.

Yes, but you are comparing apples to oranges. They brought in $70 billion in revenue, but their operating margin is just 3%, meaning they only made a profit of a bit more than $2 billion. Don’t get me wrong, I have no sympathy…

Quick thought:

Earths aren’t merging like in the comics. BUT, people are becoming refugees from one universe to another. On top of that, we get a second generation hero of a non-powered superhero from the future. I don’t know about you, but I sense that they are already teasing us the next big crossover: Futures End

I wouldn’t say it’s difficult, but you just can’t replace everything in the Google cloud with data in your NAS. Google drive, YES. But how can you move your data from your Gmail to your NAS and still access it as email? You will need a e-mail server. And, how about Google Photos. You definitely can move the all, but…

Your assumption “may be” right, but it just doesn’t sound right BECAUSE if you happen to be one of those grandfathered free G-Suite user, you will see that when you pay for more Google Drive storage (there’s no Google One for G-Suite), the Google Drive storage you pay for is in addition to your free storage. I paid…

I really love advices like this. While people are cashing out their points at 1 cent each, the card companies can make a profit which in turn would allow people like me to convert the points to travel in luxury style that I can’t afford.

>> Yang’s $1000/month would do a lot to provide for the necessities for those lower income classes; however, I would think that many middle class families would just park some of it in savings and investments, like the S&P 500.

I have been thinking about exactly the same thing, too. I know that I myself may park my…

There’s no better way for the uninformed, lazy-not-want-to-learn folks to get rich to invest into S&P 500 ETF in a consistent manner. If historical performance repeats itself (NOTE: it may not), anyone investing $1000 a month for 30 years will be a millionaire. If you increase your monthly investment amount by…

I always want to ask the same thing. Out of the hundred of flights that I’ve been on, I’ve only done that once because at that single incident, I had a flight to catch. On all my other flights, I almost always got off as the last passenger. People don’t realize:

I wonder if it would work with fireworks.

I don’t disagree with you. But at this time, it’s impossible to tell which side starts the whole overbilling and underpaying cycle, but we all know that the cycle makes the healthcare cost artificially high. And the money injected into the artificial “fund” causes more people to invest into the industry (because it…

I am actually for Medicare for All, but unless we found a way to control the skyrocketing healthcare cost, I seriously doubt that we will afford paying it as planned. Politicians like to focus on drug cost, but our every increasing healthcare cost is WAY WAY more than just the price of our medication. Our hospitals are…

Because ... I looked around and couldn’t find anyone who knows what a “Zune” is (or was).

Even if he has heard of rumors, there’s little chances that he could be sure that those rumors were true. 

I often told my less tech savvy friends that fully autonomous driving is very easy, IF no humans are allowed to drive. Taking out the human factor, we don't even need very advanced AI tech. 

As an Amazon seller, I can predict one thing. Amazon will soon come up with new rules that ends up making it difficult for honest sellers to sell safe products, but do absolutely nothing to held questionable sellers back. Given what Amazon had done in the past couple years, I think that there most they would do is to…

>> As for canceling nonrefundable tickets purchased through third-parties, well, there’s no easy answer. Over on Reddit, u/1exp purchased five tickets costing $5,000 via Travelocity, only to discover he’d booked the wrong dates;

Which part of “nonrefundable” did he not understand? 

I am under no illusion that a solar roof on a car could power the car itself. If it could power the fan of its air control w/o eating into my EV’s range, I would be more than happy ... and, NO, I am not even asking for AC. I just want the fan.

That’s not what I meant. I was thinking that someone may be asked to update the salary only if their credit score has changed.

Is the word “crossover” being overused now? Shouldn’t we just call this a “collaboration”?

I think it would be more appropriate to make a list of movies that ruin actors who can act.
