It’s cool to read that a vaccine is being worked on for fungal infections. I’d love to say goodbye to my reoccurring athletes foot.

I love this! Internet bringing the world together.

I guess you’re right cause it was more of a spinoff not really a sequel.

It’s more of an action horror vibe instead of a survival horror vibe.

I think that game suffers as it is not as good as the first one. But it was not a bad game, I guess. I think I just had high expectations. Maybe it would have been better if it was marketed as a sequel to PE1

I don’t know much about the country, but based on my limited knowledge, I think many of these values are supported by that country.

The OP needs to check it out on his own to learn more.

I loved PE1, but had trouble getting into PE2.

For those who may not know, the game was made to be a sequel to a book with the same name.

My understanding is that the book was wildly famous in Japan, but don’t make a big international splash.

I once found a used English copy on Amazon for $200.

So, just pickup the ebook. I started to read it, but got busy with my wedding and never finished it. I need to give it another go.

The entire plot of breaking bad was caused by high healthcare costs.

I can believe it. I imagine a potential employer would be concerned about that especially if it’s a work from home thing.

It’s too bad really, because it’s entirely out of your control for the most part.

I do all my work from home (free lance), but I always use wired Ethernet to minimize potential problems.

Thanks! I didn’t know this. Especially about the department of defense.

You might check out Costa Rica.

People say the name was changed illegally. I’m out of the loop on this, why is it illegal for their name to be changed?

Ube is pretty great! It’s such a unique flavor and I find it hard to describe to people. I brought some Ube flavored snacks among other things to friends and family in the US recently and they all liked the Ube stuff the best.

Last time I played that game, I got so excited while playing it that I couldn’t sleep for 3 days 😂

I want to play it again but I’m worried it will affect my sleep.

It runs well enough, especially if the steamdeck is your only gaming device.

I’m in a country where stuff in the car is not regulated as much as the US.

One of my ride share drivers had basically a 13” android tablet instead of the stock radio in the car 😂

It was all hooked up to the car to act as a legit part of the car.

I won’t buy a car without CarPlay.

My current car has it and I love it. So I imagine Android users feel the same way.

If there is truly no option, then my phone is getting the window/airvent mount option.

I’ll never subscribe to their bs.

Hug of death, anyone got a screenshot?

I remember that rumor for windows 11, I was really hopeful.

I don’t think they really make money in windows itself.

Why don’t they just come to linux and sell their server stuff there to keep people in that ecosystem?

Google Gemini Summary of the video for those who can’t watch the video at the moment.

This video by Grant Rudow, titled “Dealerships Can’t Sell Cars Anymore,” explores the current breakdown of the American car market, focusing on how predatory lending, hidden costs, and high interest rates are creating a debt crisis for average consumers. The Current State of the Car Market • Rising Delinquencies & Repossessions: Car loan defaults are rising across all credit tiers, not just for high-risk borrowers [01:29]. Repossessions are projected to hit 10.5 million by the end of the year, with banks taking cars back after just one missed payment [02:28]. • Extreme Monthly Payments: The average new car payment has reached $749, with many people paying over $1,000 a month for standard family vehicles like Kias or Toyotas [02:56]. • Negative Equity: One in four new car owners owes more than the car is worth immediately after driving off the lot, averaging $10,000 in negative equity [03:10]. The “New Playbook” of Dealerships The video explains that dealerships are moving away from selling the car itself and instead selling “monthly payments” and recurring revenue: • Feature Subscriptions: Manufacturers are locking basic features behind paywalls. Things like heated seats, remote start, and even horsepower boosts are being turned into monthly subscription services [06:18]. • Data Monetization: Modern cars collect vast amounts of data on driving habits, which is sold to insurance companies and advertisers [06:45]. • Emotional Engineering: Salespeople pivot the conversation toward “affordability” per month (e.g., “It’s only $63 more per month”) to upsell customers from a $32,000 car to a $47,000 loan [08:52]. The Five Layers of the “Car Loan Trap” [09:32]

1. Ultra-Long Terms: Loans are being stretched to 84 or 96 months (7–8 years) to make payments look smaller [09:49].
2. Early Trade-ins: Most people trade in cars after 5 years, meaning they roll thousands in unpaid debt into their next loan [10:14].
3. High Interest: Rates of 8–12% mean buyers often spend more on interest than on food [10:41].
4. Backend Add-ons: Dealers make most of their profit on “extras” like fabric protection and extended warranties [10:55].
5. The Debt Cycle: Rolling negative equity into new loans keeps consumers in a perpetual cycle of debt [11:15]. How to Protect Yourself • Focus on Total Price: Always negotiate the “out-the-door” price rather than the monthly payment to strip the dealer of their hidden tricks [13:03]. • Avoid Subscriptions: Reject software upgrades and add-ons that don’t provide long-term value [13:21]. • Buy Mathematically, Not Emotionally: Redefine a “nice car” as one that provides financial breathing room rather than status [12:45]. • Wait for the Market to Soften: Buyers with cash or strong credit will gain significant leverage as dealerships struggle to move inventory [14:04].

I read this, but I don’t really understand what it’s saying. It doesn’t seem really clear to me. Is witness information? The person who witnessed this or what?
