1 million is ridiculously little. That would completely prohibit homeownership. And pension savings.

The Great Depression that happened almost 100 years ago? That definitely must have been caused by a court decision that happened half a century later

And perhaps one of our states leaves the country.

Hosting with close allies shouldn’t be a problem.

Within the EU, I still don’t care in which country the data is hosted

I wouldn’t say forever. But it will take a long time to rebuild.

Not really. Teenagers and young adults used to party a lot, and those parties used to have a lot of alcohol

I actually rather like the taste. Although it’s certainly an acquired taste. Like salminak

That would be a reason for more alcohol

Because alcohol is bad for you?

Our parents were still told that a glass of wine a day was healthy.

It’s just UHT. UHT dairy is very much legal in the US. And does not have to be refrigerated. It often is, because unrefrigerated milk makes US consumers uneasy. But it doesn’t have to be.

I am aware that it’s less common than it is in Europe. But it’s not an unreasonable question.

“Do you guys have any sour cream that isn’t refrigerated?”

How is that a stupid question?

It’s the continuation of a long tradition

More commonly it’s addiction that causes poverty. Drugs are expensive. And an addiction doesn’t make it easier to keep a job.

The tips about opioids and stimulants are also valid if you want to reduce harm while doing those kinds of drugs.

There’s a reason rich people prefer them.

Eww. I need bleach for my ears.

On a related note, I learned yesterday how Kennedy must have gotten his brain worms https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-do-people-get-parasitic-brain-worms-like-the-one-rfk-jr-had/

It’s important to take the right drugs, if you want to get rich.

• For example you should take marijuana edible and vapes. Don’t smoke the dried flowers directly.
• You should take prescription painkillers. Avoid heroin and black market fentanyl.
• Do not take Methamphetamine. Try cocaine instead.
• Hallucinogens should help across the board

Because it will be decreasing in value right after you buy it?

Practically the only time, Bitcoin isn’t at an all-time high is when the price is falling. That would be an even worse time to buy

How does inventing a 4th language help with that?

They aren’t going to manufacture there. Chip manufacturing happens almost exclusively in Taiwan. That new building is just an office to design those chips.

A lot of maths goes into designing computer chips. You need an army of highly trained mathematicians and engineers for that.

And Israel is a really rich country that gets a lot of gifts and “investments” from people who want to show they aren’t antisemitic. They invest a lot of that money into the education of their citizens.

Israel’s universities are some of the best in the world. While US universities are on a steep downhill.
