When they say they can’t afford to forgive student loans, this is what they mean. This is where the money went. A trillion each year into the military that can’t say where the money went and fails the audit each year.

I’ll give you a BIFL answer that’s not super heavy on performance. I’ll assume your primary goal is commuting or some light exercise.

1. Stay away from carbon fibre. Stick to aluminium or better yet, steel.
2. Choose a bike that has a fanbase. For example Bromptons or Surlys are expensive for what they are but you can maintain them for a lifetime.
3. Stay away from the cheapest bikes. If you’re going for a low budget bike try to stick with a mainstream reputed bike brand like Giant.
4. A belt drive is more hassle free if you have the budget.

Twitter and Reddit went so much to shit and lowered the bar so much that Meta actually became almost not bad in my eyes, almost.

Homelessness in no way has gone away, and in fact grew 7%, to 8,300 in January, according to the same federal count.

Then YOUR gymnastics are at the Russian elite spy level in a Bond movie.

Yeah, instead we buy gym memberships and toil away at the gym. Or die of a heart attack by age 45. Progress!

Sheesh.

Something tells me it’s you who doesn’t read enough. Checkout some words whose pronunciation is different from the spelling. You’d be surprised to know why that is. Or why some words have changed their spellings (from colour to color or metre to meter).

“Bigot” is not a good look on you.

We already have an implementation. You me and OP are all on Lemmy. So can you answer these in the context of Lemmy again?

You know that’s not true. It’s only a facade. You can only be president of you have billions of corporate bribes lobby money. Tell me an instance where a regular joe working 9 to 5 thought he should contribute to society and then became president.

Yep cops usually kill the victim who calls the police anyway.

Haha nice try. If everyone starts liking it then it won’t be niche anymore. So I won’t share it! /s

Yes I understood that in the second reading. I deleted the comment but I guess it was not propagated in time everywhere. Also you can’t add up the men’s and women’s percentages because the number of participates could vary between the two groups.

Tell me this, why don’t “but” and “put” sound similar?

What about “height” and “weight”, what’s the rule here? And what makes a letter silent in a word? If any of these rules have exceptions, then why are there exceptions?

They are “descriptives” that’s literally in the name. Mocking them is equivalent to mocking historians for only knowing the past and not being able to predict the future.

So alpha males are males who are unrefined and flawed? 🤔

You could probably run Windows 7 without any issues at all.

Fedora KDE. Rock solid stable and my daily driver.

There won’t be a conflict of interest because everyone is paying. So it’s not in the best interest of the other member countries if a corrupt country is getting a favourable report. Because their member fees are being wasted. So there’s checks and balances inherently built into the system.

So in a hypothetical similar scenario this report requested by LMG is funded by GN, Hardware Unboxed, The Verge and all the other YouTubers including the LMG. So there’s incentive to find faults in LMG within the group funding the report.

Nobody wants to watch a video to participate in a text-based debate

Why not? What’s wrong with using the most presentable, easy to digest content? If I needed to present a graph to support my claim would you rather have me describe that information in text rather than link to a picture or a video that shows that graph?

Also, there’s no need to watch the videos in length either to get what I’m presenting either. They describe and support proof to my 2 claims,

1. Investigator should be independent
2. There should be no conflict of interest in where money is coming from to pay the investigator

I presented 3 videos in a few comments but didn’t want to spam it to every reply. But here they are for your convenience.

If you were thinking that we were having a debate, why don’t you stick to debate rules and present a rebuttal to my claims?

Yeah, nor does the country crowd source the money for the investigation,

But they do. IMF pools its money from its member countries, hence crowd sourcing. The country being investigated doesn’t pay them.

so I’m starting to see a pattern in your answers.

What pattern is that?

A good weekend for you too.

I’d like to receive criticism to what I presented instead of you resorting to ad-hominem, please.
