I suppose if you want lots of whodunits where people don't guess the murder, choose the ending that the reader/reviewer finds uncomfortable or even repugnant. It'll block the mind from selecting those predictions. Maybe? Thoughts? #psychology #fiction #reading #writing

UK mosque set ablaze with two people inside, police investigating suspected hate crime | CNN A UK mosque was set ablaze with two people still inside in a suspected arson attack that police are treating as a hate crime.

Not acceptable at all! Disgusting. Absolutely disgusting.

Experienced hyperinflation in what? Hyperinflation is a condition that occurs to a currency. It's the process of a currency losing its purchasing power. So which country without a currency saw its nonexistent currency lose purchasing power?

It fits better than other value theories and resolves to them under various constraints. Go ahead and rebut it.

There are fiat currencies and non-fiat currencies. Governments run a currency oligopoly and use it to extract wealth from those who are forced to use those currencies.

Wealth comes from exergy. And governments accumulate wealth by force, including the monopolization of currency systems.

Sorry. Medium of exchange, i.e. currency, not medium of production. Brain glitch. And government does indirectly control production via regulation.

It's only "so cheap" because they control the very medium of production and they're drawing from the purchasing power of the dollar and thus drawing real wealth from the masses to their pet projects.

Archaeologists unearth 1,500-year-old synagogue below abandoned Syrian village in Golan A team from the University of Haifa and Kinneret College identifies an ancient wall facing Jerusalem and 150 synagogue items, including a stone engraved with a menorah

Question. If Jews are occupiers of the land, how are we digging up our own history that's 1,500 years old?

Spanish flotilla detainee bit one of prison’s medical staff, officials say * * *

Biting the people who are making sure you're not in any health risk. Such a brave warrior for Hamas.

Trump is of course shit and will take full credit if this shit finally ends. Just would be so nice to see Hamas dismantled and Gaza built into a healthy home for Gazans.

Given how much more than that the government spends every year, the logic fails, because the reality is that politicians do not want to end poverty. They'd lose their power over us. That's why we need to end poverty by building out UBI, etc.

Random internet glitches and degradation of quality of service that is generally concerning? Or just bad luck? I can't tell.

...while pretending that the reason that most who identify as Arab live outside of Arabia isn't because Arab colonizers forced Arab identity and stripped so many people of their indigenous identity.

Can only imagine what twisted explanation they have for how it ended up that most Jews ended up outside of the region where Judea stood and why most of the rest are called colonizers of our own homeland...

Only Jews have to deal with people lecturing us and rejecting 2,000 years of our history. It's really not that hard to understand. European and Arab colonizers expelled most Jews and erased the Jewish identity of most of the rest.

Yep and even then I expect this arrangement to be a stopgap. The kind of homestead + outward facing business model is going to become more common and we'll have a global network of highly localized economies.

Startup would be so much easier, risk of failure would be so much lower, we'd be able to offer more to the world and for ourselves, while having to struggle and stress and lock ourselves into being a cog in the means of production. That's what I'm working towards.

We wouldn't have to worry about hiring employees or making sure that we had to be available all the time to staff things ourselves, because automation would do most of it, and contract work could cover maintenance.

Ah well meat counter doesn't have that level of automation yet. Can't wait until full automation. If we had that today, esp. if we had UBI too, and put it into a small shop, restaurant, and apartment.

But since you can have more registers you can have a single queue and distribute. That way customers with more items don't slow things down as much while people like myself don't feel stressed like we have to rush.

Long Beach is first city in the nation to impose new check-out lane rules The new ordinance applies to certain grocers operating in the city and has led to some self-checkout lanes to shutter.

All that's going to happen is longer waits and more shopping online and more closures of physical locations.

You mean like how Europeans and Arabs invaded the Jewish homeland?

Ugh

I dunno...

ICE are cowards. They only go after those they know can't fight back. That's how a proper national cooperative based self defense force can preemptively beat back abusive governments, because those abusers, like all bullies, are cowards.

You think ICE would even risk doing this in the first place if most Americans (on the right and the left) were not just well armed, but TRAINED in how to use those arms, engage in conflict deescalation, but also coordinated self defense?

Think they're just a bot?
