you can only do that so many times before you run out of money, materials, water, or places to build

That’s someone else’s problem. Hopefully someone after they’re dead, but as long as they have their golden parachute, who cares?

This looks more like someone did it on purpose.

They’re all shifted down by one

$250 non refundable application deposit?

LMAO I’d sooner torch the rental property than pay just to APPLY to hopefully live there.

My wife and I were looking at realtors and one told us we would need to provide our credit card info to look at properties, and I just laughed and said “go fuck yourself” and hung up.

The only valid response, IMO.

The fact that people actually pay this shit is infuriating.

That’s right up there with calling Epsteins victims “underage women” instead of CHILDREN

Listen, it was a celerity-induced accelerated somatic mutation rate, they’re totally fine now. Warp 10 is super safe.

No, they do a 360 into dinos and moonwalk away.

People won’t stand up for their neighbors and community when Nazies are rounding the others up

Because it doesn’t directly affect them yet.

“Then they came for my coffee”, and all that.

regular hours.

Apologies, but as someone who has never worked in an office, “regular hours” is a meaningless phrase.

I worked as a bike tech for a sporting goods store and replaced most of the store tools with my own. The ones they had were all the cheapest crap from ebay or Amazon or something. One of the wrenches snapped on the first group of bikes we built when the store opened.

A nice tool that feels good in the hand will pay for itself with the comfort it provides.

I had to threaten to sue them because when they fired a bunch of us and barred us from the store, they tried to say those tools belong to them even after sending them the receipts for everything. And informing them where the box of original tools went. And having to call someone still in the store to bring me out the most expensive tool there and they had the audacity to tell me that me taking it would make their jobs harder because there was no replacement for it and if I could just be reasonable they’ll have a replacement in a month so I can come back then.

Just a guess, but when the person you’re replying to says “nestle” they mean “the company of nestle, it’s employees and all their bullshit” rather than “this specific person from the company” like most people…

I doubt many people are under the illusion that major players in any company are directly involved with astroturfing on websites they don’t own.

It’s always going to be a low level employee, possibly even an unpaid intern.

Hey now, that’s a misrepresentation of both the US and China.

China had way nicer locomotives in 96. It wasn’t 1896.

And in the US, that guy would have either been replaced by a machine, or replaced by someone younger who won’t be expecting the seniority and pay raises that being there for over 20 years usually gets you.

I would bet the entirety of my yearly pay that it was absolutely, 100% a joke and they have a perfectly healthy relationship.

We truly live in a society

In a row?!

Evolution.

It knows what it is, and nobody in it is under some illusion that they’re making some masterpiece of cinema. That is not at all a criticism or even backhanded compliment. I like when the actors have fun with the things they’re working on. I mean, who doesn’t love seen behind the scenes of Ian Mckellen slapping a dummy of Sean Aston around.

It’s fun, it’s ridiculous, and it leans into it a bit.

Plus they came up with the Thanos Weakness a long time before the avengers fans.

I had recently read a book that had

Shit, imma need that title…

I can’t for the life of me remember which book that was…

Well, shit.

If you remember, let us know! I’m a huge book nerd that (clearly) loves sci-fi, and that sounds pretty neat.

Matter=energy=matter.

If you can replicate matter with energy, you can turn matter into energy.

First you use a little wall power or even solar power, replicate some chargeable power cells, and then hey look you’ve got some portable replicating that will work without an obvious power source.

And as long as you have enough matter on hand to convert to energy, you have enough power to replicate things until we replicate space tech like deflector dishes and bussard collectors to soak in all that tasty hydrogen that’s just laying around all over the universe.

Jaysus, Keiko, it’s like you don’t even listen to me when we’re having dinner…

back to the pattern buffer for you I guess…

First thing anyone with matter replicators needs to do is IMMEDIATELY replicate 100 replicators and send them to enough countries that there’s no WAY for any corporation or rich fuck to quash it and maintain dominance.

Replicators would immediately destroy any economic system because no economic system would be needed when everything you can think of is a button press away.

Honestly any version of replicators…
