Complete society breakdown sounds promising? I think I misunderstood what you were trying to say.

How bad would affect society, it would be pretty much catastrophic. I live in the United States pretty much. Everything is computerized at this point. No Internet access good luck in getting your medical files, good luck on buying something at a store. Stores would not be able to order anything so the shelves would be empty. Traffic lights are all computerized so there would be traffic jams from hell. Now the traffic lights might continue running for a while in certain areas as long as they are not networked, But I have heard rumor that some of them might be networked And if they are, I have no idea if they could run independently.

There’s so many things in this country that require an Internet connection to actually even operate. It’s quite scary.

Most people would lose their minds because society would really cease to function within about a day.

For example, grocery stores would shut down for the day, maybe two Possibly three, until the grocery store owners realized this wasn’t going to be a short term item. At which point they would have the managers of the store escort people in figure out what items they need and then have to hand. Write up receipts to get things sold. They would have to calculate the tax by hand. Many grocery store managers would have a hard time on even figure out how to do this. Within a couple of days, the grocery store shelves would be up empty. Because there would be no real way to re-order food., Grocery store owners would be forced to close the stores. At which point food riots would begin. Because people would be convinced there was food in the grocery store yet the stores are closed and the Kids at home would be crying for food, people would lose their minds.

I’m thinking a week maybe two tops before society completely breaks down

This is solid advice. Go to the court and ask ahead of time. when my blood sugar gets out of whack. I tend to slow way down and then just pass out.

Is my logic it would reduce the number of homes available for rent. More people would be able to own. Because more homes in the market would be available. But people would be buying them to live in them. We literally can’t build homes fast enough. Every time there’s a downturn in the market building of homes slows down. And that puts us even further behind.

Most likely no, it probably had no real effect. Although I also have to ask how old are you now?

[–] andrewta@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

I think that’s the big reason. Lots of wear

If you only stubbed your toe on a fascits head then you didn’t kick hard enough.

They are all Iron Man movies ( Iron Man 1, 2, and 3 )

they each have different prices yet I can't figure out what is the difference between them...

1st pack

2nd pack

3rd pack

 

I know that at some point in the distant past when trees fell. There is no microbes or anything to decompose that they just laid there. Then after a period time microbes and other things were able to break down the trees. Which at some point that became coal.

What I’m curious about Is that the only time that coal was able to be created? That was worded poorly. What I’m curious of is that group of trees that fell over during that period of time is that the only trees that was to create coal. Or is this an ongoing process?

In other words, the trees that fall today will be at some point become coal?

 

I know the easy card to say is well It’s just racism. But there has to be another reason on why so many countries are doing it. Are the countries just claiming they can’t afford it meaning it’s a financial issue to have so many immigrants? Is that a lot of the Afghans were not doing their immigration paperwork, Or not showing up to immigration appointments?

What are these countries claiming is happening as to why so many from Afghanistan are getting deported?

I mean, just because the US are doing something stupid doesn’t mean England and other countries need to.

These countries have to realize the long-term side effects here. I’m curious what are these countries claiming is the reason for these deportations?

 

Holmes Family Rescue

In this TV show Mike Holmes and his son And daughter Fix people‘s homes that were renovated, but for whatever reason the renovation went horribly wrong. Mike and his family go in and they fix the home properly.

Well, I’m curious is for the actual home owner family, the family who actually owns the home, how much input do they have on the changes that are made to their house? Like for example, if they repaint room, does the home owner actually get a say in the color of the paint? If a wall was taken down make more of an open concept, does the homeowner actually get a say? If the outside of the house had brick on it. Does the homeowner see if that brick is painted?

I’ve been watching Mike Holmes for many years now and sometimes it seems like the family that he is helping out. Doesn’t really even know what’s happening until the job is done. What I mean is the homeowner family calls Mike or writes to Mike and says please help. Mike then goes through the house with the family to find out what was wrong and what family was trying to accomplish.

Then the family basically leaves the house for a period of time while Mike and his crew come in and fix the problems. But while fixing the problems, obviously some things have to be torn down. But when they are rebuilt, I’m wondering how much say does the homeowner really have as it’s rebuilt, in other words what it looks like.

 

Video in question

What she says is that she got equity in the divorce, but when she graduates school, she has to refinance and then pay the equity back.

I need somebody who understands finance to help me answer these questions. Is what she is saying that she got the equity at the time divorce, then when she graduates school, she takes out a loan and uses that loan to pay the equity back to the ex-husband?

The second question: if the above is the case, and in the context of the video, if she doesn’t think he will live that long, Why would she want to forgo the alimony then?

I mean, she isn’t getting the alimony right now, but she has the equity in the house which it sounds like she got that already, if he dies early well then she just basically keeps the equity so I’m not sure why she wants to Make the change she wants to make.

I’m not looking for the emotional answers of she’s a money grabber or a horrible person or any of those sorts of answers. Because that’s not what I’m asking.

What I’m trying to understand is the financial piece of it.

Because she said she would be willing to forgo the alimony if she could just have the equity now. But it sounds like she she’s already got the equity so I’m really confused.

Can someone watch that video and try to help me understand what financial benefit she’s going after?

 

video short of the episode in question

anyone know which episode of Star Wars Clone Wars this video is from?

 

Color me shocked

 

For example I'll send an e-mail with 3 questions and will only get an answer to one of the questions. It's worse when there are 2 yes/no questions with a question that is obviously not a yes/no question. Then I get a response of

Yes

back in the e-mail. So which question are they answering?

Mainly I'm asking all of you why do people insist on only answering 1 question out of an e-mail where there are multiple? Do people just not read? Are people that lazy? What is going on?

Edit at this point I’ve got the answers . Some are too lazy to actually read. Some admit they get focused on one item and forget to go back. I understand the second group. The first group yeah no excuse there.

Continuing edit: there are comments where people have tried the bullet points and they say it still doesn’t help. I might put the needed questions in red.
