Though I use Tubular (NewPipe fork) and don’t need a timer but, always sleeps faster listening weather report of a remote country.

Though if I recall correctly, filibuster rule can be removed with 51% majority but obviously Democrats are too nice to remove that.

Like it or not, the United States are of the corporations, by the corporations, for the corporations.

Now I totally disagree with Republicans on almost everything especially since 2014 but one thing I like about them is, how to pass the actual laws, and how to put justices in supreme court.

No matter how wrong are they, or who paid (directly or indirectly) to pass the laws… when they have majority, they just steamrolls.

Democrats on the other hand are just talks.

Edit: Though, on a larger scale, I think Democracy is a failed experiment. But that’s entirely a different debate.

Look at just one example:

In Europe, Apple was told accept outside payments. Apple made mockery of the wish of the people they are making money from… and made it more expensive to use outside payment system.

Now take a guess, if it was China asked Apple to implement something serious… do you think Apple would be able to make mockery of Chinese government and still survive in China?

There Are Thousands of Alien Empires in The Milky Way

Any contact info?

What the actual fuck… and that too from apnews?

Now only if those “researchers” looked even further back, they would have found that ultimate building blocks of any coffee, like electrons and up & down quarks came into existence around 13.8 billion year ago (or may be ~28 billion year ago as claimed by some new research), and our universe may be a part of infinite multiverse that may have existed forever.

So wouldn’t it be even bigger headline that coffee has existed forever :)

The first thing that came to mind upon reading the title is the movie Repo Men from 2010.

Plot from the Wikipedia:

In 2025, advancements in medical technology have perfected bio-mechanical organs.

A corporation known as The Union sells these expensive “artiforgs” on credit, and when customers are unable or unwilling to pay for their artiforgs The Union sends “repo men” to locate and forcibly repossess the organ - invariably resulting in the death of the owner.

I would like an option within settings to get comments sorted by ‘Top’ (or new/hot) when I open any post. Thanks.
