I would think a Democratic party that can't deliver what its base wants is an even greater threat.

It may or may not run in Wine, won’t hurt to try https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=5839

I hope to see it reach 10% within my lifetime

No more stable than any other Gulf countries. But they aren’t involved in any proxy wars and always maintained friendly relations with everyone including Iran.

Nowhere as much as Qatar or Saudi Arabia, yet they aren’t on the list. UAE should be higher up than Oman too but it isn’t.

Perhaps what helps Oman are other things besides oil and gas revenues. Perhaps their lush greenery and ancient frankincense trees.

What about the white peoples of the Middle East and North Africa?

Oh wait, you banned them, even if they were Christians.

Bill Hicks on Reagan

Landlords can always charge more. The government needs to under cut them by providing affordable public housing with affordable rent or financing.

The government is obligated to provide public housing, they don’t even have to be free, just sensibly priced.

PPP is your friend more so since some governments provide free healthcare and free education for their people

This can’t be right. How does anyone survive on that?

Windows 11 does report its version number as 10. The latest release of Windows 11 is 10.0.22631.3374 but I don't know enough to say it is just a reskinning of Windows 10.

Technically both are 10, but I do like the new UI on 11.

I must be in the minority that actually prefers 11 to 10

Stop sending them weapons!

White House Approved Bombs to Israel on the Day of WCR Attack

I'd rather buy a BYD on the low end or a Lucid on the high end, with many of far more interesting EVs all across the range. Not to even get to him as a person which is unappealing.

Don’t pretend Biden isn’t an unabashed Zionist and didn’t go around congress to send Israel weapons

There are still journalists in Gaza verifying and reporting, but Israel is killing journalists at a faster rate than any other conflict in 30 years.

Disgusting

Israel will never know peace.

Porkbun

Not kosher and offered best price

The ACA should have had a single payer option. I also believe the US government should run public hospitals and have a national generic drug company.

250k is not top 1%

The West Bank is illegally occupied

I look forward to seeing it play out. More competition is always better than less competition.

Most of my expense, other than taxes, are healthcare costs. I know of no way I can reduce how often my family needs healthcare, and I have thousands of dollars in healthcare debt still not paid. We rarely travel, rarely eat out, and rarely splurge. Maybe there is some way to squeeze our belts even tighter and make it work.

It is easier to just move to a country with more affordable healthcare. 12 years ago when I met Americans living and working in Japan I didn't believe them when they said they were better off in Japan making less money than in the US because of how expensive healthcare is in the US. Now I regret not believing them. My family's healthcare costs grew faster than our incomes.

I really hope this allows a third and perhaps even a fourth company to enter the market

So it isn't just me. My spouse and I bring in together $250000 (before taxes), we own a house and we are living paycheck to paycheck. One factor of many why I chose to move to another country. The only good thing is that once I sell the house I will be able to pay off all my debts because of how much the price of the house gone up.

Exactly. A 3% rise when inflation is 8% is effectively a paycut.

The USSR wasn’t perfect and there were some mistakes that they have done, such as supporting Israel early on. But one lasting good thing it did was help People’s Democratic Republic of Yemen (South Yemen) develop their missile program. We are seeing the lasting legacies of this now.

This is stability that long-term planners appreciate.

We can't detect morality either, I guess it doesn't exist.

One day science will reach the Orphic understanding of the origin of the Cosmos.

This is where Macron is wrong, Europe and the West already lost all credibility when they chose to be complicit in the genocide in Gaza.

Did we just discover the TERF to Nazi pipeline?

So plagiarism?

I didn’t know that the Pope was a tankie!

Perhaps it is. Still more informative than the human-narrated doom and gloom videos about the project. The railway is actually in service for freight and has been for a few years, passenger service will begin soon. Etihad Rail will eventually be a part of the greater Gulf Rail project that is still in development.

I see what's happening. I posted two different videos one of Doha and one of Madinah. Doha is one the Arabian Gulf and has a hot humid climate, Madinah is up the mountains of Hejaz and has a hot dry climate.

It is really nice to see an alternative to US corporate tech making inroads. But to get the numbers even higher the US needs to ban the Chinese and Russians from using Windows and I hope they do.
