Keep in mind that’s Income Tax. Most rich people don’t actually have income, they have capital gains.

Lol I didn’t even know they were actually bidding. I saw a Lemmy comment yesterday saying they should, but I didn’t think they actually would do it.

Remember when gas was cheap because the entire country ground to a halt due to Trump mismanaging COVID? Those sure were the days…

Honestly, if Trump did this it would completely change my view of him. Jokingly gnawing on a baby turkey leg is a very human thing to do, and I just could never see Trump doing it.

I really wish this article had more information, but the way it’s written is very vague and potentially rage-baiting. The only fact stated about the incident is:

Students at Clack Middle School were allegedly told by a staff member that they would begin tracking menstrual cycles for female students.

The word “they” in that sentence is unacceptably vague for a news article. Who is “they”? Is it the school and/or staff members? Because that’s justifiably bullshit and rage worthy.

Or does “they” mean the individual student? If a health teacher is teaching students how to use a period tracker, then that’s an entirely different story.

All in all, this is pretty lazy reporting that makes me think of how Fox News and its imitators get away with riling people up by completely misinterpreting a situation. With that being said, maybe this is a genuine case of a school doing something abhorrent. In which case, the journalist needs to do a better job providing the details rather than just one vague statement.

Didn’t they actually have people in robot costumes previously though?

“Alright, let’s turn on the AI Mega-Thinker 3000 ^TM and see what it says about solving climate change.”

INVEST IN RENEWABLE ENERGY AND OVERTHROW THE BILLIONAIRE CLASS

“…well that can’t be right.”

Aww but I thought I was special.

Could just round to “3 dollars”

Boss makes $3.44, I make a cent. Sharpen the guillotines, cause I can’t pay my rent.

Yeah I don’t know why the article mentions Gen Z’s “tech-savvy reputation”. Being able to operate a cell phone doesn’t make you tech savvy.

Gen X and Millennials grew up using command line and troubleshooting computer problems before the Internet. Their tech skills are way higher than Gen Z.

Hitachi Magic Wand?

This is going to make politics so much more insufferable.

Well… that shit’s crazy.

My mesh network actually allows me to set devices as priority. I guess I’ve never tried it out and am too lazy to go start pulling cables.

I could, but I like having the router network as an option to connect to. I know the point of a mesh network is to improve WiFi connectivity overall, but every once in a while it will get a bit laggy when streaming a video. Probably because I’ve got like 90 some devices connected to it. I like having the option to switch my phone to the router network and go upstream of all the other stuff.

Honestly I don’t remember. I had a gen 1 Chromecast as well and I think it was just a Chromecast app. Now it’s all integrated with Google Home.

Edit: I tried googling it and under the Wikipedia page description it showed the following. But what’s funny is if you go to the Wikipedia page, that text is no longer there.

Originally called simply “Chromecast”, the app was released concurrently with the original Chromecast video model …

I personally have a Comcast router/modem with its own network. I have a network switch that I plug into the router that I use for hard coded stuff. Mostly my PC and a couple other things that I want to run fast instead of convenient. Then I have a WiFi mesh network that I run for most of my other devices, including my phone.

So for my Chromecast, if I want to stream from my phone on the mesh network, I have it on one network. But if I want to stream from my PC, I have it on another network. While with most devices, changing the network you’re connected to is simple, it’s a massive pain in the ass with a Chromecast.

Also they made it reliant on the Google Home app, which makes it really hard to change WiFi networks. It’s a pain in the ass if you have multiple WiFi networks setup at your house.
