The Kia Seltos and the Kia Telluride are both AWD vehicles that offer diff locks.

Why confuse the hell out of everyone with the AWD vs 4WD distinction when it really all comes down to having a diff lock? I feel like it'd be much easier to communicate and enforce a "diff lock only" rule.

I mean, the $200 does encourage me to create a monopoly and simultaneously extract maximum wealth from my opponents while also taking their homes. Not sure if the monopoly analogy is useful here.

UBI is capitalists' best attempt at breathing life into capitalism. The benefits of UBI in the global north would still be at the expense of exploitation in the global south.

What kind of thinking is this? That it's better to lose as long as you have the moral high ground? Maybe that thinking works for little league, but not when healthcare, women's rights, and climate are on the line.

"Sure the fascist uprising happened in record time, but at least we put it on the record that the fascists have occasional issues with intellectual honesty!"

Only in the liberal mindset does intellectual honesty come with more primacy than physically protecting people who are actually vulnerable.

The fact that it appears we are 1 or 2 years away from door-to-door gestapo visits, and liberals are still circle jerking about their epic, pragmatic, civil, patriotic, "play by the rules" mindset, means we are most likely doomed.

Sounds like your uncle did end up working for the company again, if only for an hour or day.

Maybe because they're littering e-waste at a massive scale?

I dig the variety of topics on this comm, and I super appreciate how it doesn't get STEMlordy at all.

The idea that aliens built the pyramids is racist.
