Canned Barqs root beer (the can part is important, it affects the flavor) for non-alcoholic, Woodchuck Amber for alcohol. Hopefully obviously I do drink plenty of water though, I just don't go out of my way to drink extra.

I completely forgot about NIMBYism, that's a perfectly good counter-example I will admit.

I have never once seen or heard of market deregulation resulting in an improvement in the health of that market.

Hey, Canada is an American country, in that it's on the North American continent. This could be called America first, if you want to be obtuse about definitions,

That didn't happen.

And if it did, it wasn't that bad.

And if it was, that's not a big deal. <- We are here

And if it is, that's not my fault. <- Or maybe here

And if it was, I didn't mean it.

And if I did, you deserved it. <- And I'm pretty sure they used this one already

Adolf should be a perfectly fine name, don't let one asshole ruin it for everyone else.

Please, for the love of god, tell me you didn't write that post with AI, because it really looks like that was written with AI.

Because it's a pretty normal detail to go unmentioned when discussing minimum wage. That detail has always been the case, at least as far as I'm aware.

I'm pretty sure tip workers still have the lower minimum base wage.

To my knowledge the problem isn't getting together the funds for any single "contribution", it's having the funds to pay the politician off over and over again. Sure, half a million dollars sounds like a lot more than a hundred thousand, but how many times can that half million be successfully crowdfunded? It's much more reliable for the politicians to just accept the smaller but more consistent "contributions" from the more wealthy parties.

On top of that, outright bribery is illegal, attempting something like that is liable to get you arrested.

Is that going to kill the need for the various modloaders?

Not quite, deletion from a hard drive also unflags the space the data was located at as being in use, so it will be overwritten eventually so long as the drive continues to have things written to it. Simply flagging something as being archived means that information will remain on the server indefinitely, the exact opposite of what is intended by a delete button.
