Cool video.

Not what I was hoping for from the description though.

Moved to a shoes off country over a decade ago.

That’s EXACTLY what I do.

…so just like any other influencers then?

EDIT: influenzas

Sounds pretty redeeming to me. He didn’t commit the crime himself, and he owned up to his mistake and tried to make amends, and it doesn’t even seem like he was compelled - he did it on his own.

This is the Board of Peace that costs $1 billion to join and has a permanent installed chairman who sent a letter to the Prime MInister of Norway threatening to invade and take over a sovereign ally because he didn’t receive an award about how peaceful he was?

Can’t imagine why they wouldn’t be eager to get in on that.

Came here specifically for this. Not disappointed.

They’re the same kind of people who made “Picard” with the announcement, “This ain’t your daddy’s Picard!”

THAT IS WHAT WE WANT. THAT IS WHY WE LIKE HIM.

“Old tools” does not mean obsolete or bad. It means tested, hardened, and reliable. And crucially, probably runs in a couple megabytes of memory, which you might need if the cost of RAM suddenly quintuples for no reason.

Hmmmm

It’s my best friend, Scam Likely!

Based on the trajectory, in 20 years people will believe the weekly world news headlines of 20 years ago.

I intentionally ignore the vast majority of everything on my phone until I can get to a real computer. Phones and tablets feel like unmitigated torture and I loathe it every time I have to use one to do something

“I have decided to go to space and upload my consciousness into a blue alien furry and find a girl alien and we will kiss and it will be beautiful and deep and I am keeping all my Oscars.”

That is true, and I used “bank account” as a stand-in for what I really meant, which is “financial options”. By not spending money, you have the insulation of not panicking when expenses come up, you have more general leverage over your life, and you get the peace of mind that comes with it. Of course, there are better places to PUT it than a bank account.

It’s also a virtuous circle… if you don’t spend, you don’t have as much financial stress, which means you need less distraction to take the pressure off, which means you spend less money on things you don’t really want, which means you save more.

I beg to differ. Time is shaped like this:

You’re missing the fifth panel where it doesn’t bring the joy she thought it would even after she comes to terms with having spent the money.

It’s okay to spend money to be happy.

It’s also okay to sit there with a full bank account, reading a library book, and smiling about how the marketers didn’t get you this time.
