Assuming you are talking about in the US, shelter is included in inflation calculations. You can argue about the methodology, but the cost of having a home is in there and does contribute to inflation. It is about 30% of the overall basket.

You’re (and some of the people in the post) are conflating the colloquial and actual definition of historical revisionism.

Colloquially it just means lying about history, but the real definition is just reinterpriting history in a way that challenged the orthodox view. A great example is the dark ages, which from studying non Latin texts, many authors argue that the lack of knowledge and learning associated with the dark ages is actually just a lack of source texts in Latin from western mainland Europe.

So as you can see the definition of revisionism in an historical context is value neutral, it would depend on who what and how things are being revised.

The original cities skylines had atrocious performance after a certain city size as well, especially on hardware available at launch. Hopefully they can deliver on better performance over the next few months, I expect it to improve before they do their console release.

Yeah very confused about that first one as it was clearly a foul, he completely takes Diaz out and doesn’t get near the ball. If Diaz isn’t fouled he is completely free on goal (albeit at a not great angle)

No, it’s because you can trace at least some of this specific problem directly back to British imperial rule in the middle east.

I think you’re misreading it. In the same way as there are people that need to ride on planes (for example for their job, or to move to where they have a job, etc), there are people that need to use social media.

For example, if you own an online store you really need to have a social media presence. Same if you are an artist, and live off of commissions. I’m sure there are plenty more examples.

I try to live by the rule of I would rather be alive than dead. Being “right” is no consolation when you’re in a hospital bed dying.

The same goes for cars and especially bikers. You may be right, but being right doesn’t stop the giant SUV next to you from flattening you.

The whole point of this sub is advocating for changing that and getting rid of car centric development.

I used to watch the YouTuber in n question and they did used to be a really good view into China. However, I stopped watching after he moved to the US and started making classic “China bad” scare content. The only part of the OP that is questionable is the excessive use of cracker, which is a bit distasteful but nothing more.

I would also like to point out that “atrocities done centuries ago” does not apply to White South Africans. Apartheid was what, 40 years ago? Well within living memory.

This is an android enthusiast community. For a lot of people here the answers to that are going to be yes, yes and yes.

Registering to vote is pretty normal. You might not have to because the government already has records of you and that is the same in America for a lot of people. For immigrants in Europe you still have to register!

If you change municipality or state in Europe you might also have to register again so they have you voting in the right local elections.

I find the wait times have gone up as they prioritise both drive thru and delivery options ahead of people actually at the counter.

The floor at one of the spaceports just fully disappeared permanently for me, and bounties seem bugged in that they are not removed even after killing all witnesses. One of the transport pods in the main city is also just permanently gone. This is on top of all the issues you pointed out!

I would disagree with a big part of this characterization. Specifically that prices are out of control beyond housing (which is completely fucked), but outside of that Canada has done better than most comparable countries when it comes to inflation over the last few years.

Taxes are not that crazy unless your only comparison is the US, which is a bad comparison.

nay

I mostly agree with this but more than shorter code I value readability, I would rather take 3 lines to be clear to any developer than use some obscure or easy to misunderstand structure to write it in 1.

I just hope it works so that people can shut up with the high speed rail only works in other places garbage. Just tell them to go visit california and see how good it is… Only works if they finish it so I hope they do.

But without main population centres is it going to be done successfully? Imo they should have started with one of the ends, so that at least there is a big trip destination.

Too late for that now and I really hope it works out and we get a good example for north american high speed rail projects to point to despite everything.

It’s 90% on gen z with investments, the article has a link to the survey they’re getting the data from (or at least another article with more specific numbers about the survey)

Its a shame because it is something I am actually really good at, and now it’s a completely useless skill!
