It's the not Armed Forces to make sure it's diverse in the terms you're talking about. The first thing they do in boot camp is breakdown the individual and create a team player. It doesn't matter what color you are, where you are from, you are all on the same team. Your life literally depends on the person next you. If you remove the colorblind meritocracy that military should be you are putting everyone's lives in danger. Diversity in the antithesis of what a sound fighting force is looking for.

Trump was removed from all forms of social media, but tell us how you hate conservatives and their empty rhetoric. Guess that also means that the Trump administration was in close contact with the tech companies to ensure they banned him.

Not true. I've known this phenomenon by its name for well over a year. Not sure the origin. Yes, it's nonsense. But plenty of people use here in the Bay Area. This wasn't made up just for this article.

Also, the word is nonsense just the practice. Pay attention to what and who is in front of you. Eyes up, please.

Maybe spend those millions on lobbying state and local governments to address the reasons this has become a problem in the first place. Also, all either does is make the products we have to purchase that much more expensive since, you know, the retailers are passing those expenses to customers.

All good points, but the main issue here is the government, in this case the CCP, dictating game play. It's the parent's responsibility to dictate when and how their children play games not the government.

If the government wants to go after game developers because their games are addictive that's one thing. Dictating to the players is a level of control free citizens should never experience. Although, in this case, citizens of China are hardly free in the first place.

Well, when they start finding crimes to fit the man it doesn't matter, does it? And make no mistake that's what's happening.

What Dave does with his money is none of your concern. But since he put it out in the public, you are certainly entitled to your opinion.

You see, that's the point of not telling anyone. Everyone has an opinion and once they know a little something about anything they want to share it. Most of those opinions are how to separate Dave from his money. Nobody needs that in their lives. Not Dave. Not anyone. He was right to keep quite and it looks like he had good reason to keep it quite in the first place. How you feel about finding a middle ground is the problem Dave was looking to avoid. See my first sentence.

Is this even a problem anymore? Market St has been closed to cars for over a year. The city's population has decreased significantly. Most companies are still in work from home mode. Why is this even a thing? Do they need the money to pay for those $20k trash cans?

guess we're not going to talk about the effect of e-commerce? it's nothing but hot takes about property owners around here.

it costs less money to have an online store than a brick and mortar. the pandemic has brought about a permanent work from home mentality, leaving office space vacant. people make more from the gov't than working in retail or hospitality - businesses are going out of business at the highest rates we've ever seen as a country.

but it's the landlords.

This is the problem, isn't it? You seem to be posting an easy question to answer. But it's not, is it? Who is Google to judge what anyone would "consider violent or garbage?"

I don't remember electing them to control this aspect of life. And where does it stop? What is the line? Who is actually defining these things?

When a small group of people control the definition of "wrong think" then we're gonna have a problem regardless of which side of the argument those people are on.

While your question is innocent enough, I get the feeling you already knew the answer.

sure, but there aren't finite drones. not sure you've ever seen CIWS in action, but it would put down the drones with dispatch.

Digital goods prices won't increase due to demand necessarily. Those prices will rise because electricity, rent, and all the other overhead line items increase. Those increases get passed to the customer, who is going to be hit with increased prices for the necessities of life - food, water, housing.

Digital goods do nothing to support human life - food, water, housing. Sure you can buy things online, but you can buy those things at brick and mortar stores. In turn, gas prices will rise to the point where delivery services become unviable.

Inflation touches the entire chain whether the product is digital or otherwise.
