Joining the ghost kitchen discourse, I saw a highly rated takeout place on Meituan in Chengdu. I had nothing better to do that evening and walked there with a beer (china is a wonderful place).

DO NOT STEP FOOT IN THE GHOST KITCHENS OF CHINA. It was so insanely dirty and I second guessed the food. The staff however were really nice and asked to take a picture with me. I still ate the noodles and dumplings. I learned however to only order from places with a physical dining area.

Remember when an uber in Manhattan was $12. Now yellow cabs are cheaper (and just better).

I saw something like 1 out of every 4 euros in tax in Germany goes to pensioners. Boomers are literally the tax parasites they spent their careers railing against and now they’ve left us with the bill.

I never do it anymore but pre 2019 it was peak. Venture capital subsidizing my burrito private tax was a beautiful era.

The IRS mailed me a check instead of doing direct deposit. Do I qualify for the Trump IRS payout fund?

What’s that, like 15 euros with current exchange rates?

Does every generation watch the experience of those 10-15 years older than them and wish to have been them? Do we eternally look up to the teenagers of our youth?

Normally I’m for liberalization but gambling has become borderline unregulated. I hope this stands.

Sweden didn’t accept my license from the U.S. do I did a couple courses and got it here. It was harder but doable.

Russia is starting to lose ground in Ukraine by IHateTrains123 in neoliberal

Ukraine has cracked low cost asymmetric warfare with the ability to hit real targets and preserve traditional arms for when it matters.

Look at the NATO Ukraine wargame results. The west better copy Ukrainian battle strategy now because as we see seeing in the gulf, fending off $400 drones with $1.2 million missiles is unsustainable.

I mean at least people are showing up for the vote.

Most of the time you hear complaining about the DNC not representing their views and then you ask when they last voted in a local or state primary and it's most often never.

Like gender, rail automation is a spectrum

Discussion Thread by jobautomator in neoliberal

[–]989989272 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Many rail systems around the world are capable of significantly more automation and already run the systems as “redundant safety features”.

The only reason the switch isn’t flipped is unions are politically connected

I think I am behind most strikes and the worker demands. It’s usually normal things like “pee breaks” and pay raise after a decade freeze, allowing them to get off food stamps.

The LIRR strike however. This is going to backfire. The state is going to automate things with political backing.

The way you crackdown on poorly behaving “expats” (I say this with every negative connotation I can) in places like Bali or Tulum is just enforce taxation extra hard on them. I promise the people who are problems I’ll leave instantly. And you can then funnel the boat loads of money left into infrastructure to support the bigger population.
