I don't know if he believed this way when he was in Germany, but he only studied there and came back to the USA after for the rest of his life. But I agree he's a special kind of stupid.

Rice in the instant pot is fine, but it's a bit more hands on. The rice cooker makes it perfect automatically every time after you put the ingredient in and just press a button. You can also keep the rice warm the entire day so you can make some for breakfast and just use it throughout the day, hot and ready to eat! The convenience of not needing to babysit the rice, put leftovers away right after making it, no chance of burning the rice, every individual grain cooked perfectly etc. It's worth it. When you have equipment that makes something, normally mediocre, exceptional every time you end up eating it way more often.

Yes, but not all those chargers are high quality. I ordered a charger from a brand I never heard of because it had the features I wanted, but it ended up having a seriously noticeable whine when charging anything so I'm returning it today.

Got to research quality brands. As far as I know the best 3rd party brands for charging are Anker, ESR, and Baseus. Have several of each of their products and love them all.

39% of Americans do not invest in the stock market. Fuck them I guess.

Having 2% deflation instead of 2% inflation would be good for the economy. It would be a baseline to compete against for companies and mean less people would invest in bad investments that just beat inflation.

We also need to stop this ludicrous idea of infinite growth of the economy forever in order to be able to afford to retire. It's detremental to the environment and to the quality of products the economy produces to expect such.

Inflationary policies and fiat currencies are the fuel behind both world wars lasting as long as they did.

Ancient Rome prospered with a strong currency, when they started debasing their currency it started the fall of Rome. The same will happen to us.

They have yet to REmake the first game, relying on the 20 year old remake from PS1 to fill that slot.
