I’m seeing a lot of sudden unexpected failures in Russia these days, I wonder if they’re pulling out the old cold war style subterfuge/sabotage playbooks from the CIA.

Lmao
I was just talking about how companies could be sueing over tariffs the other day.
Be better if the logistics companies sued rather than the stores, though.

A lot of them are, the ones that aren’t bots and propoganda alt accounts, but a lot of them are also only here because they would be / were banned from Reddit.

- Comment on Why the real poverty line is $140,000, this strategist argues 2 weeks ago:
In fairness my offhand estimates might be lacking due to recent spikes in cost of living and breakdown of global trade relations.
- Comment on Why the real poverty line is $140,000, this strategist argues 2 weeks ago:
I think the most achievable method to get this standard of living to everyone in short term is to properly define the limit as it applies to everyone. Giving everyone a guaranteed $140k, $35k per adult and child, would be exhorbitant in many places, though slightly more understandable if you’re limiting to the USA alone, and still not cover the highest cost areas at all. Giving the majority of people $20k per person and child, is doable and could more easily gain public support, and is sufficient.
Muddying the definitions and pushing an ever higher number like this author is doing doesn’t seem beneficial for the goal of getting people out of poverty.
- Comment on Why the real poverty line is $140,000, this strategist argues 2 weeks ago:
Would that not then be letting the high cost outliers dictate the number for the vast majority?

- Comment on Why the real poverty line is $140,000, this strategist argues 2 weeks ago:
So he’s estimating 140k for married with children? Whats the individual estimate?
- Comment on Why the real poverty line is $140,000, this strategist argues 2 weeks ago:
I personally consider the poverty line to be when you can live safely and comfortably, which for most places around the world would be like $20,000 and for intercity New York would be like $80,000.

- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
The lowest amount to run most modern titles AT 4K 60 FPS is around $1000, and thats only because graphics card prices have come down.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
That’s the confusing part for me because statements from the design team said they had the very optimistic goal of running most games at 4k 60fps, which is more like $1000 entry level imo.
