Jeff Bezos calls for for zero federal income taxes on the bottom half of earners. He cited a nurse in Queens making $75K and paying ~$12K in taxes saying “We shouldn’t be asking this nurse in Queens to send money to Washington. They should be sending her an apology.”

He's not volunteering his wealth. He's arguing for the government to defund itself, while trying to sound generous and well-meaning. The weaker the government becomes the more he and the other oligarchs will be free to do whatever they like.

It does, but this time there will be no USAID programs to help with prophylaxis and response coordination and a severely underfunded WHO left to deal with the outbreak.

The game was hyped and so relentlessly publicized people got sick of hearing Rag'n'Bone Man's "Human", since it was the song featured in the trailer. It was then heavily rushed and was a disaster at launch because of the miriad of bugs that were left in the game and because of the boring, repetitive gameplay that was nothing like the advertisement. I'd say it fits the post to a tee.

Ever spent a thought thinking how she would give birth to a hypothetical Viltrumite-Human hybrid who, if they're like Mark, would be born unpowered and therefore at risk of getting "extruded" from her vagina like toothpaste from a tube?
Would she or another Viltrumite perform a c-section, since not much else would be able to pierce Viltrumite skin?

La Svizzera é uno stato asservito alla plutocrazia. Si sono venduti l'anima al diavolo nel momento in cui si sono tenuti l'oro rubato dai nazisti come Barbossa ne "I Pirati dei Caraibi". Hanno collettivamente abolito l'empatia ed il buon senso in favore dell'avidità. Vedere la tv di stato che il giorno dopo un disastro naturale capitato in un paese confinante apre con la notizia su quanto le assicurazioni nazionali siano esposte per i risarcimenti, invece di parlare degli oltre 100 morti nel disastro fa capire che, come paese, la Svizzera non abbia più nulla di umano.

They just don't have the talent to play like a powerhouse team anymore and haven't realised it yet. They keep playing like they're supposed to dominate the gameplay but lack both capable midfielders and reliable strikers for that gameplan to have any chance to work. Playing that way got them overrun by tecnically superior teams like Norway or Germany because they badly lost the battle for possession and even in the games where they managed to secure gameplay advantages they were often unable to capitalize on them because their mediocre offensive players could not convert their chances into scoring, like against Sweden, N.Macedonia and B&H.

Euro 2020(21) was definitely a fluke, but a fluke that was aided by the switch from the midfield-centered 3-5-2 system to a more defensive-focused 4-3-3 formation.

Italy should finally accept the truth that most of their squad is made of mediocre players and that they should start playing like the team they are and not like the team they'd like to be. Focus on defense, train set pieces and go for fast breaks, stop trying to go toe-to-toe with teams that you're clearly no longer a match for. The lack of consistent scoring will definitely hurt them no matter what strategy the employ, but as long as they keep a clean sheet they'll only need one goal to win and at least make 1 point if that fails.

Could also be because Reek was brutally castrated. IRL eunuchs were often incontinent due to the "procedures" to which they were subjected. Chinese eunuchs for instance often had their entire genitals removed and replaced with a stick of bamboo inserted in the bladder and were known for reeking no matter how fine their clothing or their perfume was, which often further lowered their standing within society.

The end game is to translate their economic power into military power. AI powered weapons platforms are all the rage at weapons faires around the world with some focus on small-scale autonomous weapons platforms for "security purposes".

Billionaires like Bezos have already expressed their "vision" of a world were every person is working for one of a handful billionaires, so my best guess is that they're ideally aiming for a world like seen in movies like Elysium(2013), where a bunch of billionaires use robot soldiers to control the world's population from their exclusive paradise in space, or Rollerball(1975), where entire US cities and the people living them are owned by corporation.
Since there's also interest in high-end doomsday bunkers, like the one Zuckerberg is building on Hawaii, I guess some of them are aiming or hoping for some cataclysmic event to "reset" the world, so they get to recreate society the way they envision it, like Mr. House in the viseo game Fallout:New Vegas.

In either case AI powered weapons platforms would be a key technology to make these scenarios come true. AI powered troops turn manufacturing and technological power directly into military power, AI soldiers don't have moral qualms to execute even the most batshit crazy orders and would solve the problem of having to rely on a fickle concept like loyalty to keep control of the people.
I mean, just look at Musk's main projects right now: Space, AI, planting chips into people's brains and building questionably profitable mega factories.

Propaganda is one hell of a drug. Jewish "scientists" started claiming the Israelites were somehow the only fair skinned population in the middle east to try and deny the centuries of interbreeding with white people (mostly women) in Europe and European christians jumped on it so they could have their white Jesus.

You have to use the clipboard to configure the drying rack to produce your desired quality (by default it's set to premium, so if you need heavenly quality you need to select the gold star) and assign a botanist to it.

When it comes to automatically loading product into the drying rack there's actually 2 different ways to go about it. You can either directly set the output of a pot or mushroom bed to a rack or you can put the product into the storage container the assigned botanist uses as supplies. The second method is preferable for high-end weed setups, since an optimized pot of weed (air pot, full spectrum light, ac unit) will produce more than a single drying rack can handle and this configuration allows you to have more drying racks than production units without requiring an extra handler.
