This pandemic revealed how much work is done by individuals showing up to do their job.

But it wasn’t available on any streaming services so we’d have to rent it, even though Roku and other websites said otherwise.

Drop a million dollars in my lap and I might be able to retire a few years early. Drop a billion dollars in my lap, and I can live like a king for 500 years. There is absolutely no use for a billion dollars except for taking food out of the mouths of millions of people. It’s not enough for them to be rich - others…

What the “riches” don’t understand is that eventually things will be too expensive, period, and they will lose all that money they’re hoarding, in recovering the costs.

Allowing actual human sexual content opens them up to a whole bunch of legal requirements they don’t want to be subjected to. For example, there are laws intended to prevent child exploitation that require porn producers to keep records of every performer, including verifying their age.

Makes sense on the surface, but this would inevitably lead to a firestorm of enraged parents followed by advertisers pulling out.

Here’s the thing: there is a 0% chance he’ll get any money from Rockstar, as the tattoos aren’t the same, so there goes any possible copyright claims, and it’s obviously a work of parody.

My 2000 Celica GT-S went 384,000 miles and ran like new for 20 years until a deer killed it. All I had to do was change the oil often and take good care of it. Was only on its second clutch too.  But mostly I think too many cars are unloved and neglected.

Ok, 120k miles a year, means he drives 328 miles a day....

When your defence of someone is “everyone else does it too!” or “It’s always been that way!” you might need to rethink your choice to defend him.

Doesn’t matter, he’s working with other people, fellow professionals who deserve a baseline of respect, and (former) star status doesn’t excuse him from basic decency, which it sounds like Allen has very little of

Tim Allen was always an hypocritical asshole who should have been in jail for trafficking.

Murdering your potential customers is an ineffective sales technique. Even my local KIA dealer stopped doing that.

The other problem is finding repair shops that will repair to sub-micron tolerances.

I’ll just outright say it: you’re trying to say piracy. If you buy something digitally, it seems like you should be justified in retaining a backup copy for this very reason.

Something something high seas, something something torrent.
