I don’t see what makes the last two cult-like?

Ok so I went digging and found some things. It must not have been ProPublica piece but it WAS widely reported -

The Consumerist - Ex McDonald’s Employee Sues Because She Doesn’t Want Her Paycheck On A Prepaid Debit Card

And here’s a followup on the story 2 years later

Ah, ok. I’m guessing the law is that pay cards can’t be the only option then

I’ve never heard of McDonald’s employees getting paid in preloaded cards, is that true? I know plenty of people do it to avoid taxes but McDonald’s is a major employer and that’s pretty damn illegal

The difference is massive right now but it’s not like internet technologies have stagnated. Speeds and latency are only getting better

That is completely untrue, we are in a plateue but it’s definitely not the final one. Frame Gen is gimmicky for sure but hardware has a long history of gimmicks so it’s not a sign of the end or anything - and the related technology of “AI” upscaling is already very good

And as much as I don’t like it, if graphics are rendered on a supercomputer and streamed to users, the quality can skyrocket - that is, assuming they can afford it.

I think the unpopular opinion here is specifically that the graphics plateue is a good thing, though I do agree with you that OP’s justification for it isn’t the best

At my high school, if you were a senior with a job (and it wouldn’t affect your graduation) you could take a “work program” class which was supposed to be about personal finance and career goals. But the teacher sucked and every Friday, we’d watch a show tangentially related to jobs. That show? The Apprentice.

She thought Trump was a good businessman and we could learn some lessons. We were also assigned Art Of The Deal. She was not thrilled that we weren’t into it.

And let me tell you, anyone who watches that show and reads his book then still walks away thinking Trump is anything but a bumbling idiot is a goddamn fool.

I’ve hated this dude for 20 years.

In 1997, $100 was worth about $200 in today’s dollars btw

Holy shit guys, does DDG want me to kill myself??

What a waste of bandwidth this article is

Old time beard look? You mean…trimmed beards?

Also, men don’t have to confirm to your beauty standards. Maybe THEY like having old timey beards

Can’t say what all the comments are like now, but at the time of you posting that there was literally no one defending vaping in the comments

He likes me :')

Is it? I think it’s worth pointing out that they only tested 3 models (?) from the same company. We have no idea if it can be extrapolated so the headline is hyperbolic. It’s like saying apples potatoes are poisonous but you only tested 3 farms owned by the same company for poison.

Regardless, I am pro-regulation for both safety and environmental impact. They created an insane amount of ewaste already and now some have full color LCDs…on a device you’re supposed to throw away in a month

I was civil the whole time?

Lil bro still out here arguing. If your goal was to get blocked, I guess you win!

Lmao. Did I already seen your alt? Is it lilbokchoy?

Anyway,

1. That is the only part that even implies kids are included - in contrast to several parts that imply only adults.

2. Get a life, man

I’m happy to be corrected and I do agree it’s a bit ambiguous but I don’t really see any evidence that this study represents the entire population. It says right there that adults were surveyed and the questions include the word “adults”

You still think you somehow deserve an answer lol

Don’t stew over this too long, lil bro. It’s not healthy.

Is there another page? I couldn’t find a link with more info on the survey but every chart says they ask the question specifically about adults. I didn’t look at the “actual percentage” studies but it would be pretty disingenuous to compare their surveys to the percentages of ALL citizens. If that was a bad assumption and they’re actually comparing apples to oranges, please let me know!

And as for the survey respondents - you need to be 16 to make a YouGov account so they definitely weren’t (deliberately) asking children.
