Each physical store can have different prices on the same goods, to exploit the average differences between the populations in each area. Already happens between countries/continents, now it can happen on a neighborhood scale.

What's the first rule of conspiracies? What are the other ones?

[-] Arctic_monkey@leminal.space 2 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah, because why blame the corrupt leadership for offering people shit to eat, blame the people for not being happy eating their shit, because look how much worse shit can be shoved down your throat if you don't like it!

Actual stats:

About 1/5th of US adults are functionally illiterate, of those 2/3rds are US-born.

The reclusiveness selection argument makes sense, but why intelligence? Brains are crazy metabolically expensive, and I can't see why a smart reclusive spider would survive humans any better than a merely reclusive one.

I mean, the main sustainable feature of indigenous food systems is their small population size relative to the environment's carrying capacity. Trying to feed a large city on hunted game would be far less sustainable than modern agriculture...

No, the bigotry is lumping all centrists, who have a diversity of views, in with the hateful ideology, despite having zero information about what they actually believe.

[-] Arctic_monkey@leminal.space 3 points 1 month ago

Counterargument: Centrists are actually a diverse group with many very different positions, that just have in common the fact they don't agree with either of the currently dominant political factions.

Aggressive reposte: what you just did (political stereotyping, where you label everyone who disagrees with you as basically being the same cartoon villain) is, in my experience, an example the left-wing bigotry that drives centrists away from your political faction. Disagreeing with your doesn't mean that I agree with the hateful morons on the right, it just means I also see and won't tolerate your bigotry.

Wait, how is "not equal to" a Nazi symbol?

Been using Arch for daily driver, web server, large data analytics machine, gaming, music making, programming, visual design and a while lot more for 15 years now. The only time I've had an issue with something in the official repos was when freecad was compiled with a version of a library that wasn't compatible with a very specific thing I wanted to do and I had to recompile it. That's it. 15 years. One issue. Not sure that even this Gaben fellow could improve on that...

Looks like women are too busy with all that sex stuff to get out on their motorbikes.
