I love Derbauer.

That's the way I see it as well. And probably why we don't see that metric often. GDP is more an accurate indicator of financial stability / purchasing power (although also flawed)

Oh I'll try that, thanks!

Watching the video reminded me of the ukulele apology video.

What's with all the terrible jokes throughout the entire thing? That wasn't necessary at all

But i don't want Plex to prefer my local metadata. I like plex fetching all that for me. But once it's set, I just don't want Plex to change it constantly when it seemingly feels like it.

You can't force a woman to manage an OF account against her will, knowing VERY WELL what she'll be exposed to. That's fucked up.

Maybe. But I know some who would be drinking less

Thanks for sharing, this is absolutely INSANE. Far worse than everything pointed by GN.

Hindsight is 20/20. In the late 90s, Apple was a dying company.

I was too young to hold stocks but remember my boss, who was a fervent Apple enthusiast, getting rid of his shares when the company was seemingly aimless. He had a pizza box shaped LC475 which was so overpriced vs PCs of the times.

Then Steve Jobs came back and everything changed.

If that comforts you, the debt per capita index is pretty much meaningless without any other external factorSwitzerland has one of the worst debt per capita and isn't a poor country by any means.

The USA also owes over 16T To other countries

Many people pointed this out in the link but yeah, it's much harder to make edits / entries in wikipedia nowadays.

The rules are more strict and you have to respect an increasing number of rules, etc.

I remember when Wikipedia started to get some steam, it was basically a text editor with very basic hyperlink-style formatting.

Minor changes / typos are still easy to do, but frankly I wouldn't know how to start anymore if I wanted to create a new entry.

I personally post relevant information to the communities I've created and moderate, but I'm not here to be an entertainer. I get a handful of upvotes so I guess it's useful to some people.

If Reddit fucks up even more I might have a bigger role, but so far it pretty feels like that Milhouse GIF playing frisbee with himself, and I'm sort of okay with that.
