Puti - we hrd u lik blowin up stff so we blw up ur stff

The washer, dryer, dishwasher and fridge my wife had when we got married were already old and all lasted 20 years more. The fridge was the first to go, and in the 12 years since then they have all been replaced twice.

Not really, it means mechanically working longer not forever.

I’ve heard this from service techs who have worked on my refrigerator and dishwasher - major appliances in America last a third as long as they did 10 or 15 years ago.

Imagine, government of the people, by the people, and for the people - that’s crazy SoCiAlIsM talk!

Like I said tho - cost/benefit analysis. Introducing what I assume is a huge number of confiscated guns into the population will create costs downstream, not just moar freedom.

Fair point. Let’s take a slightly deeper look. The annual interest on the US national debt is approaching $1 TRILLION. Any number starting with “M” amounts less than a tenth of one percent of that. So it won’t “pay down” anything, it will just add a tiny drop in the bucket to one year’s interest. I haven’t done any math to estimate the problems resulting from putting a shitload more guns into circulation, but my guess it they would cost more than the benefits. But that’s like, just my opinion, man.

Millions of dollars with an M? Who’s national debt would that be, Lichtenstein’s?

Pretty much most chem students doing labs.

Throwing away money isn’t evil when WE do it!

So… same as making deals with MAGA then.

Wait I thought the deprecation of the deprecation warning was deprecated.

Sometime in the future maybe people will look back on this as the beginning of money units being “credits” as in familiar sci fi terminology.

p.s. yeah I know “it’s not the same thing” - I’m imagining that a monetary system could develop from an official credit mechanism.

My friend just finished a couple solid days of debugging where there turned out to be a whole series of problems that looked like one bug, so even though he kept fixing things the app still kept not working. Finally hacked his way out of that jungle into the bright light of day.

You not only can control it with our app, you have to - so when we start showing un-skippable ads on our app you can either watch them of buy a new faucet. Smart like a fox!

Yeah I would expect a “smart” toilet to flush when I stood up or moved away. Why anybody would ever require a phone to turn on a faucet is beyond ridiculous.

Making “smart” devices that can’t do routine mundane things without an active internet connection is completely fucking stupid.

I’m a programmer and my answer would be more like the tester’s answer.

But okay I also used to be a tester so this comment is probably invalid.
