Isn't the New York Times owned by that guy who worked for the BBC when they were covering up Jimmy Seville's poo poo? Maybe he just runs the joint, but doesn't own it. Either way, lol.

A thread is only bad when you read it.
Take this wisdom and use it recklessly.

there is a video of him being asked to read aloud part of a contract by a lawyer or something and he basically refuses to do it; ends up paraphrasing it. probably thought it was some kind of slick legal tactic but it does make it seem like he is barely literate.

I know that Richard Branson of the Virgin company is functionally illiterate from how dyslexic he is. Based on the way Trump operates, I'd suppose Easy D is also moderate-to-severe dyslexic.

LOL holy poo poo. being a taxi driver is a more dangerous job you loving idiot.

Taxi drivers would probably be a lot safer if they were required to be armed and empowered to kill anyone who posed a threat to their life.

I just wanna see taxi drivers going around in pairs and handcuffing every fare at gunpoint. Bartenders operating from behind plexiglass and poo poo.

You mean like how every taxi driver is sitting in a taxi but not every cop is out on patrol and there's a huge number of administrative staff, that kind of proportion?

I think it's more like the proportion where a higher proportion of African Americans are in prison for criminal activity.

i believe that will happen too.

right after a nuclear war wipes out civilization as we know it.

Solar storm could happen any time. If some bunch of ppl want to harden themselves against that, it'd be pretty cool.

Sort of reminds me of how Buddhism has schools where different ppl will commit themselves to repeating a single activity in total discipline to see if there's a path to Nirvana through [jerkin it].

A good example is that we produce enough food to solve world hunger but the distribution is all hosed. New principles like vertical farming etc. Means that the population limit of the world can expand to levels previously thought to be unsustainable due to advancing tech.

Every generation has thought that this world was too small. Every generation was wrong. I believe there is a limit but it's way higher.

The limit is based on real world adoption. Not just, what can we think of, but how rapidly can we deploy it and start to adapt it to the problems that will inevitably rise in real world applications. For example, vertical farming is dumb as poo poo when storms the size of a continent will routinely rip across the surface of the Earth at 100mph. We can't even halt the acceleration of the growth of our problems. If you think that tech will save you, then you have no experience in the world. Walk into a hospital and see what kind of equipment they're dealing with. Most of it is 20+ years old. They still use fax machines as the primary way to shuttle documents. Meanwhile, we spend like 30% of our GDP on healthcare. Its hosed. We will not be able to produce and implement any solution in time for it to matter. As a reminder, we can't even convince half of the people in the most powerful nation in history that a problem even exists, and the alarm's been going off since before you were born.

sorry you never learned to count. makes sense you would think trump is not far from the truth here

The tweet mentions LinkedIn, the website company, and their stats, not any national stats.

The web net interprise company Linked In has had a good 2 months of helping ppl find jobs through their job finder facebook clone bullshit.

In other words, our long national nightmare is over.
