So you make 335,000 a year and cannot afford two homes? Something's up with that. You can easily afford a home at 150,000.

Is this more than one person? Here is the first definition of the word they.

1. used to refer to two or more people or things previously mentioned or easily identified.

My machine is 7 years old and runs fine on Windows 11. I don't understand all these posts about Windows 11 not being supported. TPMs have been a thing for 10+ years now.

Microsoft will extend support once the deadline is near, for enterprise customers.

Are you referring to the use of the average rather than the mean amount saved? The article is only like 4 paragraphs and I don't think there was anything to miss. That said I also have a 401k tracker through my investments and it shows most individuals in that age group have around 400-500k.

I've never had a boss who doesn't work more than I do. This is one of the reasons I have no desire to move into management.

So it's better to put more lives in danger so that there can be someone to blame?

Other countries absolutely do require people to work to support themselves. The US is certainly not unique in this regard. Some countries have universal income or provide care for the elderly but to think it's the norm is the Lemmy collective putting a bag over their heads.

Do you tag all communities "linux"?

High ceilings isn't necessarily a McMansion. I had 14 ft ceilings in my 1250 sq ft condo

When society fails

Because elections are coming up, why else?

True companies do not pay per packet but they do pay for the bandwidth. The more users that use more bandwidth consistently means the ISP needs to invest more money on throughput/links. If you have 100 users and they use 1 mbps on average you can get away with a 100mpbs link. If you have 5 users using 50mpbs on average now you need a gig link. So technically it's not free but yeah bandwidth caps suck big time. My suggestion would be to pick a place to live near a city with a municipal broadband option.

Just like he legalized marijuana at the beginning of his term, got it.

Average total comp for a software engineer at Google. The principals can make close to a million a year total comp

Would you walk out of your 250,000/year software engineer gig over this? Most people won't and don't. Go to work, get paid, and live your life how you want.

Also substance abuse or mental disabilities... or both.
