Pretty nice until the day inevitably comes where one of the RFID chips malfunctions and the fridge keeps insisting that you throw out something that isn’t there and you can’t reset the inventory without downloading an update from some company that doesn’t exist anymore using a profile that your ex has the password for.

Then you’ll wonder why you didn’t use to have these sorts of issues, and your kids will ask how you updated the fridge in your childhood. As an adult you are expected to know this stuff. With your authority being undermined like that they’ll stop listening to anything you say and start smoking crack after school. Now you have a malfunctioning fridge and junkie children. Thanks a lot, dad.

No thanks. I’ve got 99 problems, but a fridge ain’t one.

It’s from this video:

Who told you that?

I do not fear that. Populations change over time. We will teach them to eat sausage and their skin will whiten long before they manage to outbreed the western civilization.

If they want tear down our chuches, I will only ask if they need any help.

Any day now… Any day… just wait. It will fall apart…

It. Will. Fall. Apart.

… cmmmmon, now.

No: Now!

Any time now just you wait and see goddammit.

While you’re busy using both hands to disarm the one handed gun, your opponent has plenty of time to throw pocket sand.

I know it as Greek Breakfast.

It can be enjoyed anywhere or any time, but it’s best served on a balcony in underwear. Greece happens to be a good place to get it in the morning all year round.

Just say that your name is Number 2.

They were part of WW2.

Stolen ashtrays etc. was almost free marketing distribution.

If the couple in bed wanted to talk, they could just call each other.

I disagree. Absolute profits would be the realistic option. The supplier is not adding to their profits due to the tariffs or whatever caused this, and the customer are surely as fuck also not getting more money.

She’s the only one in the chain that gets paid more when increasing her margin by percentages.

Of course there’s more to it than an example, and yes, someone else will be able to outbid her. The larger chains can easily do that while still maintaining their profits.

Yeah, it wouldn’t make sense even if they drop shipped beans directly to customers, as in, let’s forget about costs to staff, shops and other services.

The purchase price and sales price are not directly related like that.

She’s effectively increasing her own revenue and profit by more than the increase in cost price.

I’m sure you already know this, but let’s break it down, because apparently a lot of people don’t seem to grasp this.

Let’s say a bean used to cost 100 and she’d sell it for 200 making 100 in profit.

Now let’s add 15% to both, so a bean costs 115 and she sells it for 230, making her profits 115. The extra 15 in profit simply appeared out of nowhere, because she made the wrong calculation.

If she wanted to fairly increase the sales price by the change in cost price, she should’ve maintained her profits at 100 and made the sales price 215. The sales price should only rise by 7.5% in this example.

This is exactly what’s causing inflation, and doubling the effects of the tariffs and other costs price increases.

So sure, she could argue that because of inflation, everything is increasing so she needs more profits to cover her base costs, but please keep focused here: Those things should already be in the calculation of sales price. The profit is the excess and thereby not required to cover any of the costs any more than they already do. The same calculation can be done on each of them and none of it would justify adding the same percentage to her own mark up.

It’s pure greed.

That was also the period when the introduction of tire pressure sensors created brand new issue that people never had before.

However you probably don’t miss the manual choke valve, double clutching, hand winded starter crank, or even window cranks.

There was really no golden period of car controls. It went fluidly from one kind of shit to another kind of shit.

I’m not really scared of AI becoming more intelligent. I’m more concerned about stupid people giving control to stupid AI. It’s plenty capable of fucking things up as it is provided it is given access to do so.

It used to be that political comics were satirical.

This is just the news.

The G is silent in English words starting with gn. Gnarly gnats is pronounced narly nats.

There’s not a lot of those words anyway

Gnu and gnome are exceptions only when used to describe the software. The gnu animal and the mythical gnome creature are pronounced with silent gs.
