If it was an economic issue, why did they vote for the person who has an explicit plan to enact inflation driving tariffs?

I think you may have missed my point.

.gov is not the same as .gov.us (in this example, .gov is not the tld, .us is) Tlds like .io belong to countries, there is no going back to .gov or .com because countries outside of the US never just used .gov or .com.

To add a bit of context:

https://www.parliament.uk/ https://www.parliament.lk/

How do you reconcile both of these websites having .gov? You can’t, you either need second level domains (.gov.uk,.gov.ik) or you would need one of them to change their name (parliamentsrilanka.gov)

.gov needs to be differentiated, and you need all of these country TLDs for that.

You could create your own DNS server with its own routes and registrars.

If you got enough people to use your DNS network you could create your own registrars and your own rules.

Users would need to switch to your DNS, but otherwise there isn’t anything about how the Internet works that requires you to use the big dog DNS

Who gets .gov? The US?

Other countries never used just .gov or just .com.

Damn, you just SLAMMED me.

Yes, honestly the fact that ‘youtube music’ is literally just a different frontend for YouTube drives me nuts, it goes both ways, the YouTube app for TV doesn’t have proper features either, it’s unclear if you are getting the music or video version and the most egregious of them all imo, on the TV app, you can’t freaking browse for a different song while music is playing, you have to stop the song to go to the search bar.

Cli doesn’t make much sense to me either when the *arr suite has a well documented rest API already.

They don’t convey the same information.

Infinity isn’t really an amount of something.

With docker it’s quite easy (assuming you are familiar with docker)

But docker / containerization is a skill that becomes really really helpful to learn if you are interested in this type of thing.

I would need to use my hands or count out loud or do something after maybe two numbers if we are starting at 100.

Trying it out just now and the only way I can really effectively do it is by subbing 10 and adding three each time.

That’s possible though, if there are some really bad drivers screwing the average.

Edit: it’s probably even true in this case, it just depends on how you define ‘good’. For example if you define it by getting tickets, only 36% of drivers are issued tickets. The average number of tickets issued is > 0 but the majority of drivers aren’t issued tickets, the average is skewed, because most drivers are at 0.

Yes, general investing is not zero sum, however many methods of advanced trading are. Options trading, which is prominent and easy to access on Robinhood, is much closer to gambling (and is treated that way by many users) and is zero sum.

Most active trading strategies require successfully arbitraging, or extracting inefficiencies out of the market, and you can’t do either of those things without someone else losing money.

Passive investment is investing in the companies that underlay the market, active trading is extracting value out of the market itself.

The average net worth of a single person in their 60s (kamala’s age) is about 1.5 million.

So take 8 million for Kamala and husband and 3 million for an average couple in the same age group.

I think that’s significantly closer than any of the gop or third party candidates.

Besides, it’s not like Kamala is trying to make it a secret (unlike trump, who consistently refuses to release documents related to wealth and assets)

This article talks about how it’s ambiguous though and provides examples of things that are typically not normal clothing such as overalls and bibs not being deductible.

It’s really not as clear cut as ‘uniform’ and it really boils down to a case by case basis except in the most obvious of cases.

What does early voting have to do with this though?

What is it about a ballot cast now that is more vulnerable than one cast on November 5th

What do you mean by this? Who is targeting them and in what way?

I got downvoted for this before, but, when you sublet your property like this, you take on an inherent risk. This isn’t any different to a bad tenant, or an investment not panning out.

Any business who accepted these red boxes should have either a) established contingency with Redbox themselves or, failing that, b) established a contingency through their own means by keeping liquidity to handle disposal of the machine (or something like insurance)

Don’t feel sorry for these businesses, they took a calculated risk, likely made lots of money over the last decade, and now are faced with potentially needing to use some of that revenue to dispose of the machines. Any normal business keeps assets and liquidity available to cover expenses of doing business, the same way a landlord needs to use some rent money to clean up after a bad tenant, it’s part of their business model. If a business thought these machines would just live there forever and magically go away when they aren’t making money anymore, that’s their fault.

I assume business would insure against scenarios like this, whether that’s through securing cash as they suggested or if that isn’t an option (which seems to be the reality of the situation) through things like, escrow accounts, insurance, and cash on hand.

You say the businesses wouldn’t just ‘throw away money’ yet here we are, the businesses, by not ‘throwing away money’ are stuck with these machines to deal with.

I understand that the person was saying that the business should have collected a deposit, but they didn’t, so my question is, why are these businesses caught out by this? Why didn’t they prepare for the risk they assumed by subletting their property, if they didn’t collect a deposit, they should have sequestered some cash to handle this scenario.

No, but any smart business would retain some of the revenue they got from the red box for scenarios where they may have to deal with shit they didn’t expect.

In other words, the revenue they gained from having a red box on their property for 10 years probably more than covers the insurance claim they can file to get it taken care of.

Did the stores not profit off of the machines being there for all of these years?

I can’t imagine redbox wasn’t paying these stores some kind of rent or commission, otherwise why would the store let them just post up their business on their property?
