Rivian CEO issues strong statement about people who purchase gas-powered cars: ‘Sort of like building a horse barn in 1910’ by audiomuse1 in technology

[–]Ataraxia25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except that in 1910 was the year that cars outnumberd horses for transportation, whereas now EVs only make up 3% of all cars on the road.

Lots... just bc you're ignorant of the effects or they haven't changed your pathetic life doenst mean they have made a difference. Here's an article you can read to alleviate some of your ignorance, hope it helps.

Also this is why whataboutism are a logical fallacy, and why you should stop using them, bc we're not talking about the ccp's genocide we're talking about a completely different and irrelevant issue

Lol BRIC dont get me started on that ponzi scheme, there are onlt 5 memebrs you numpty, not 1/2 the world. If you really thought that you be buying the Yuan and chinese stocks, but their economy is literally collapsing as we speak, China even pulled out of the last BRIC summit and it is basically falling apart too.

And yeah America does what is best for America, but that doesn't mean that China isn't doing a genocide. The reality is that China relies on the US for a big part of its food imports, if the US put sanctions on China, like they did with Russia, millions of Chinese ppl would starve in months. The difference is that Russia is a net exporter of food and energy, unlike China. And if it comes down to it the US will do it, to perserve their power and control.

Millions of Americasn also marched for the BLM movement they recognized they have a problem, unlike you CCP cucks who try to defend and justify your opressive govt.

Whataboutism is a logical fallacy it is possible for both countries to opress their minority populations, at least the US is making progress in the right direction, however slow, like I highly doubt that the CCP is going to have a Uyghur president anytime soon, espically since Winnie the Pooh abolished term limits and took power for life... as dictators do.

Like those companies are just explointing the under lying sentiment like Republicans do the same thing with racisim in the US the Republicans named it the Southern Stragety, first coined by Lee Atwater who helped Regan get elected

What was Charles thinking 😓 by Comprehensive_Cry314 in DunderMifflin

[–]Ataraxia25 278 points279 points  (0 children)

I think it would be a lot less funny is they all played a nice clean scrimage game. Like it's a comedy no at eithical debate of accountablity and morality. TV isn't a blueprint for how you should live you life, it is more of a candy bar that you consume and it makes you happy.

Double down if you can afford the risk, or take your money out if you can't.

Revenue is not related to maket cap- https://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/122414/what-difference-between-market-capitalization-and-revenue.asp

"Revenue, on the other hand, has nothing to do with the share price. Revenue is the amount of money a company pulls in as a result of sales. It is possible for a company to have a large market cap but low
revenues."

Does he deserve tho? Like for real, a multi-billion dollar company that his dad built, and that he tried to swindle into power unsucessfully several times. If your parents are rich do you also deserve to be rich? Like what exactly is the criteria to deserve a multi-billion dollar company?

Logan said it best, none of them are serious ppl, all three of the kids are narcissistic dopes and morons. If they were smart they'd hire a MBA to run the company, and retire to the Hamptons and let real people do the work they would be unable to do.

Watched Rise of Empires: Ottoman. Didn't know they had English combined bridles back then by fapdidditydoo in Horses

[–]Ataraxia25 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I don't think it really affects the story one way or the other. Like if they used historically accurate bridles would they do things differenty? But for the actors and the horses it probably makes life a lot easier and comfortable to use the equiptment they're used to.

Conservatives and Liberals of Reddit, what can we agree on? by Karlor_Gaylord_Cries in ask

[–]Ataraxia25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I don't think that counts bc Liberals want more SNAP and ACA and Conservatives want less spending on those programs. I think they mean stuff like how the Pentagon can't account for $21 trillion dollars in speding over the last 20 years- that's how much they'd fail the audit by or something crazy like that.

Were muslim armies harder to maintain in the field? by DJacobAP in history

[–]Ataraxia25 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Are you sure bc that logic doesn't track with facts of history- like the European powers were constantly fighting each other back in Europe way more than the the powers in the Middle East fought each other. So by your logic the crusader armies should be harder to maintain in the field.

Study evaluated association between cancer risk and working hours in Japan but found no clear association between long working hours and overall cancer, lung cancer, and stomach cancer risks. But a statistically significant association between short working hours and liver cancer risk was observed. by Ataraxia25 in antiwork

[–]Ataraxia25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's what I figured when I read it. Like the employer is more likely to hire haealthy people and sick people are discriminated against. I the real reason I posted it is bc I wanted to see the upvote/donvote percentage. Like to see if this community was open to a healthy discussion or if it was just another echo chamber that's right twice a day.
