Libraries are public services. Subways are public services. Parks are public spaces. If you are so progressive you would be interested in expanding social service spending to help people out of homelessness. This would solve your (personal) problem with homelessness.

It was a joke. About how the NYT is guilty of the behavior they are being critical of in the article. Yeesh.

Any idiot with an internet comnection can copy and paste the url.

And for the record i agree with your points about class/availability of information.

I hope nobody adds the archive.is for this

It means efficiency, organization amd optimization. I have had maybe 12 different usernames since starting hn. I routinely get off the site for long periods of time because interactions like this are why I got off reddit circa 2013, and got on hn some time after that.

Personal accountability is a dying trait it seems. Sorry you are getting downvoted for what seems to be an accurate assessment of the situation. I wonder if the people downvoting would argue that advertisers for taco bell are not complicit in your buying a taco?

Also, it seems like there may be some copyright implications as well? The more I think about this it really seems like Microsoft is opening itself to lots of liability issues with this policy.

Literally stated in the response that this was meant as a way to approach things other than smoking and stated that i havent smoked in over ten years but kudos to you for the one upmanship. Once the reddit strike is over take this kind of posting back over there.

So anyone in the medical industry using microsift edge is violating HIPAA?

I have fluctuated 36-40 (mens US) for the last 20 years. If you are gaining or losing tremendous amounts of weight in a short period of time you should probably talk to your doctor because there may genuinely be something medical going on.

I have 15 pairs of size 38 (thanks 'rona years) 8 pairs of size 36. It is stupid to get rid of the ones that don't fit, your weight will fluctuate throughout your life. Also you will eventually need new pants.

If you have the time to do it today, doing so is an investment in having more free time tomorrow, or if tomorrow is busy it is now less stressful.

Keep your lighter in the empty part of your cigarette pack (haven't smoked in nearly a decade, but this logic is applicable elsewhere).

Find pants that fit/look good/are comfortable and buy 15 pairs.

Black clothes/accessories match everything and require less thought.

Anarcho primitivism is hardly "left wing"

"Leftists" offended by these sentiments are most likely centrists. The goal of neoliberalism (read: the DNC) has been to shift the left to the center. This has been their objective for years. See: Obama, Biden, the Clintons.

TK was post-left before it was cool.

"Just fix it in protools" is a common phrase uttered by too many musicians to count in the pages of TapeOp as well as their podcasts, to a degree that would seem to argue against your points raised here. There may be many artists that are technically proficient and still employ these techniques as an element of their aesthetic, but there are far more who acknowledge using it as a crutch.

My thoughts, too, went to Luigi Russolo and early experimental electronic music, and experimental films of the 1920s. Obviously any counterculture can still be co-opted into the mainstream. See what is happening now with various civil rights movements being worked into corporate images (and the ensuing conservative backlash).

What happens when Adorno & Horkheimer become mainstream pop icons?

Often menus don't change for years, only specials and seasonal menu items. These can be clipped to the laminate. Restaurants have done this since longer than I have been alive.

Some people add sugar but it is not required to achieve carmelization. Onions contain sufficient sugars to ensure this process.

How were mask mandates useless? The data is in and they did help prevent spread of infection.
