That fucking mobster threat is his calling card. I received a trump email that was about voting and at the very bottom it had that sleeping with the fishes quote. Straight up didn't fit at all but they shoe horned it in there to try and scare people into voting for him.
I was talking to my bud about the scoring system and how much of a sham it was she didn't get at least a few for originality. Literally nobody else did some of the moves she did in the competition. I'm not saying they were good or bad but they sure as fuck were original.
I sorta laughed when I heard she had a PhD in breakdancing before seeing the performance and ridiculed her after but she manages to do what nobody else has done to this degree and that is to push breakdancing forward in the human conscience. So maybe she doesn't deserve to be ridiculed for that PhD.
To add to this Qatar has some of the best 'insert stat here' because they only count Qatar citizens and it's basically impossible to be one unless you're born into it or marry into it iirc. They just don't count immigrants or anyone else in those stats and treat anyone not of Qatar blood like garbage. The Stat that comes to mind is poverty, iirc 0 percent of Qataris live in poverty because the government subsidizes them which sounds great on paper but when you look into it only 11 percent of their population is counted as Qatari and the rest are just cheap labor they exploit.
That would be the absolute worst case scenario which I don't think would happen. Barring world nuclear holocaust they're pretty immune. Look at the Russian oligarchs, for the most part even with their assets frozen in multiple countries they're still living in opulence as they have money stored in plenty of countries that don't hate them. That's the trick, they're so rich they cna afford to have multi million dollar piggy banks all over the place.
Hurts everyone except for the people at the top. The world is so globalized that they can easily fuck off with their digital money bank and not have to worry about the collapsed house of cards they left.
Back in 2012 apple won a UI patent and we know how those megacorps do. No idea to what extent but that sorta stops any big contenders on copying them. The multi year contracts are a meme from the past but it's the same sort of people who aren't techliterate enough to learn a new UI, that keep with the contracts.
See my other comment.
Tldr: Parents make sure to teach their kids not to shit on the ground.
A little. Hands on parenting is what they need. I made sure my baby brother is tech literate when my mom is 100 percent not. He just graduated highschool this year. Sure some of the blame is on tech but kids don't know how to shit in a toilet either and parents make damn sure they learn as quickly as possible.
I was thinking this when I went to the beach for the 4th. Here there are houses literally on the sand and one of those had a cyber truck parked 10 ft from the same. The air gets so salty and humid, you could already tell it was starting to get affected.
Can't really blame them either, it was our generation that dropped the ball in making sure they were more tech literate than us. Not that I have kids but still.
As someone who's used and uses both for work and isn't a fanboy of either, sorry but apple does not have an easy to learn interface. It seems like every single choice they made was done to just be different from the alternative, more often than not to the detriment of the user. If they lock people in to how their ecosystem works low tech people can't easily change.
Yea I was about to mention. Japan is probably propping up that number since they recycle pretty much everything.
