The average Chinese worker makes about $2.80 US/hour. What’s the Mexican pay rate?

Also, yes, total bullshit that Mexico is exempt from import tariffs and all our US manufacturers have been moving vehicle production down there.

It’s an anti socialist agenda, now.

3.2 cm is average depth from skin to heart at its closest point to the outside. 6% of individuals is just 1.7 cm.

So 2" can be plenty to poke at it.

At the same time, “similar works” are protected and allowed as legal. For instance the 5000 spaghetti westerns that exist, or the entire formula for 80’s slasher films. Or Ants and A Bugs Life, or Olympus Has Fallen and White House Down, or Deep Impact and Armageddon.

So there has to be some sort of line somewhere that’s a cut-off, but it might be hard to find. Musk wanted to use blade runner and was told to fuck off, so he made up his own dystopian Sci fi future scene. He most certainly aimed for the blade runner look, but was it illegal?

Did you write “thinkering” on purpose? Because it’s fantastic.

It’s clearly against their law is probably part of the issue. The company gets a financial gain, which is obviously a benefit from the users death.

Doesn’t really seem like there’s more plastic dust? But since this study looked at colon cancer, maybe inhalation plastic has less of a role?

Lead and Teflon have gone down since the 90s. I’d say it’s mostly plastic. Up and into most all of the 80’s everyone drank tap water and sodas/other drinks were all canned or glass bottles.

Then around 1990 everyone started putting their drink in plastic. Then 15 years later for some dumbass reason, people started to buy and drink all their water out of plastic as well.

Well shit. At that point it becomes silly to think you can sue another country for money over illegal activities, doesn’t it?

Countersuit twenty billion for all the illegal drugs from Mexico that fuel their need for the guns.

Title of this post seems rather hyperbolic.

Dang. I had kind of hoped this had been increasing a bit over the months.

Look at how they’re willing to act in order to attract millions of 12 year old viewers. You can’t fake act being that stupid and emotional for that many hours pretty much every day unless you’re fucked up in the head.

That’s the reported inflation by the government markers, but be realistic with yourself.

Since 2017 food prices have gone up more like 65%, houses have gone up 50% (doubled since 2010), mortgage apr rates have tripled, rent has gone up 74%, and gas has gone up by 35%. Used cars and new cars have gone up 40% to 80% as well.

Tying “inflation” to those government markers and claiming that it keeps you at even pace (I’m not accusing you of this) with living is asinine. If you want to buy a house and a car today, you pretty much need to double what you were making in 2017.

They’re preoccupied trying to figure out how to get their population to stop disappearing.

They make you have an internet connection for the pc port of the original ff7…

I was all set to re purchase the original ff7 on steam to play it again on my steam deck. Then I seen that the assholes require an internet connection to run it. My playstation sure as hell didn’t have an internet connection. Yo ho ho ho

We live in an oligarchy. As long as plastic is cheaper and gets sales, it will keep being used unless a law bans it. I lived in a time when soda was canned or in glass bottles. The stuff tasted better bottled in glass. Plastic was lighter and cheaper, so it got switched.

Some stuff can’t really be made very well without plastic. It can vastly be cut down, for certain. But it isn’t yet realistic to eliminate yet. We need replacement materials and ways to eliminate what is already here.

As windows sucks more, Linux gets easier, and gaming gets way easier, this trend won’t stop any time soon, but I am curious about how big a chunk of that percentage is steam OS/steam decks.
