Least favorite: Never had one in Canada, but the Taco Bells in India were at a premium price point for some weird reason. Was the food premium? No. Quite the opposite actually. Alongside this, definitely Tim Hortons. Fuck that place. So so unsanitary. Coffee is burnt, tea is bitter, their Boston creams taste like sugary snot packed in a sugar bomb dough… I have no idea why people get stuff from Tim’s.

Most favorite: Calgary coop’s non packaged food or whatever it’s called. Their bakery produces DELICIOUS stuff. Very slightly more expensive than Tim’s, but their Boston creams are so so good. Less sweet AND THEY HAVE SOME FLAVOR. Their muffins and fritters are massive (and delicious).

Coop gas bars are severely underrated too. They sell French vanillas (and other such sweet drinks like hazelnut lattes or whatever) there too! Cheaper than Tim’s, bigger portion sizes. They have coffee and tea too, but I’ve never tasted it. Oh yes, they have slushies too! Again, massive portion sizes, cheaper than Tim’s.

There’s also the added advantage that coop is a consumer coop, so it’s closer to market socialism than the other options ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Not a science meme. Dear American liberals of the internet,

Please stop bringing bringing your politics in places it shouldn’t be in. We know your country sucks. Can we please just be autistic and enjoy our science memes?

The presence of the minions itself. When it is known that:

• people roll their eyes at memes involving them, especially here.
• they generally add nothing to the meme
• used by boomers a lot on Facebook

For me, here’s what I was thinking when I saw this meme:

• wholesome-ish meme
• minions? Ew. What was the choice behind using them?
• the community is Lemmy shitpost?
• oh LMFAO it’s a nod at Facebook memes.
• funny.

Humor is subjective, and it’s ok if you don’t find a joke funny ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

That’s the joke. This meme is making fun of Facebook memes shared by moms. If this satire angle didn’t exist, it would probably be posted in some wholesome memes community.

We need a shitpost community INSIDE Lemmy shitpost. Half of the people here aren’t capable of handling this level of humor unfortunately (judging from the downvotes ಠ⁠ω⁠ಠ

Idiots.

And they looked remarkably similar! Must’ve been twins like us! Looks like “loving” twins runs through our family.

I don’t think this is it. It’s simply a question of return on investment.

If I had oil industry related investments, I would want:

• supply from my investments to go up.
• demand for my supplied goods/services to go up.

Now if I am a small investor, it would make sense for me to slowly sell off my oil assets and invest into green energy IF: – I believe that there are investment opportunities in green energy that will give me a better return on investment than my current oil investments.

Whenever I sell an investment to pivot to some other investment, I undermine the value of my current investment. How’s that? Because I’m increasing the supply of my investment asset. This lowers the price.

Basically, if my oil stock was worth x, and if I put it for sale on the market, it’s now worth x-y, where y is some positive number.

Again, if I’m a small investor, y will be tiny as I’m not really increasing the supply of the oil stock by much.

BUT. If I’m an oil oligarch… Well, y is going to be VERY HIGH. It does not make monetary sense for me to sell off my assets and move them to green energy. I don’t necessarily have confidence that my losses (y) would be recouped through the ROI from green energy.

I’m a selfish, unempathetic asshole. I want to maintain my wealth. Therefore, I take the cheaper way out -> influence the government to delay green investment, so that demand for oil doesn’t fall.

Market demand. They get built because the capitalists think that people want them to be built. If people don’t want them to be built, they would go out of business and shut down.

But to answer your question, my city is sprawling and growing vertically at the same time. For the new neighborhoods, yeah, gas stations, bank branches and other such businesses do get constructed in the central commercially zoned part.

Lmfao telling it to “not act like AI” in the beginning works for me. I like to tell it to “be as efficient as possible with the word count” to prevent most of the bs. Works decent enough for my purposes.

The university I graduated from: “University of the People”.

It’s an online uni in Pasadena, California. They’re regionally and nationally accredited. From an accreditation standpoint, they’re at par with other unis, so you won’t have to worry about that. Super affordable. Plus, they’re not a for profit thing, so that’s cool too.

There are a couple of drawbacks though. They won’t place you anywhere. I don’t know how the placement for other unis works, but it is quite non existent for UoPeople. The other drawbacks are again all of those that online education has in general.

Coffee beans take up 12% of my grocery budget :(

It’s delicious though.

Hm, maybe some of the agents invented immortality? Technology that could do away with mortality? Or maybe they just came across a cheat code? It’s kinda irrelevant how they ended up being immortal. What is relevant is what happened after immortality was achieved.

Death acted as a natural end to resource accumulation for a given agent. Immortality led to never before seen resource disparities. God emperor levels of resource disparities.

These accelerated war, which accelerated resource disparities which then accelerated war, which finally concluded with the great genocide.

Put it in tax free saving accounts. Duh.

I don’t have anything that I want that I can think of. Maybe a little carpet?

The current ones suck. But yes, the concept is cool and I’m sure they’ll be perfected in the years to come.

THANK YOU SO FKIN MUCH.

AI is a new means of production. Our goal must be to sieze it, use it to improve the lives of all and improve its capabilities. Our goal should NOT be to fight the means of production itself.

Haha they really have been going, huh. Not complaining though… Been there, done a lot weirder stuff than posting mildly funny horny memes

Sorry for your loss. Congratulations for the gains that preceded the loss?

Nope. That’s Vladimir Lenin
