Not quite. Cheap money is more that a loan doesn’t cost that much money to pay back. It isn’t the treasury loaning out the money, but individual banks judging based on inflation.

Ain’t nothing wrong with that.
It is a pleasant major Western city, with all the pluses and minuses involved in that.
It is good in that it is easier to find communities that you like. It is bad in that you’ll probably be connected to communities you don’t like.
Wikipedia makes most of its money from donations, with some money coming from other sources like commercial API access. It consistently raises more money than it spends and has been building an endowment. However, that income mainly comes from the fundraising drives.
Wikipedia has an endowment, but it isn’t enough to run the website for more than a few years.
In terms of expenses, the largest expense is in having staff to run the various websites and foundation. Charity auditors rank the foundation highly on expenses, so the foundation is likely not overpaying staff.
Wikipedia needs donations to survive, but it isn’t struggling. If you feel like you have better things to donate to, it is probably ok for now.
I know what I wouldn’t do.
I wouldn’t give a human woman and dolphin man LSD in a shallow pool meant to look like an apartment while having the human give the dolphin hand jobs.
Yeah. There are a lot of reasons to give Henry Ford shit, but the 40 hour workweek was one of the better things he did.
A lot of times, the IMF will lead all creditors of a country to restructure, reduce, or reschedule existing debt. What is happening is that Chinese institutions appears to be less willing to write down bad debt, holding up a lot of negotiations between debt holders. So, the debt doesn’t get reduced.
China’s foreign policy model seems focused on making deals with the existing power no matter what. Part of that seems to be that China does not believe in odious debt like a lot of Western countries do. When settling debts, Chinese institutions have been far more insistent on keeping write-offs from occuring.
China has also generally pushed for more one on one transactional deals with countries. There have been some international institutions made like the AIIB, but I don’t see the institutional creation of systems like the USA tried to do.
No. If anything, Lemmy makes it easier than Reddit.
Reddit requires some form of web scraping. All Lemmy requires us making a server and connecting to other instances to get access to the server data.
To the point where Target could figure out when someone was pregnant based on what they purchased.
Make yourself some Enterprises.
There was a lot of press I read about the British and French elections. I’ve even seen some coverage of the Indian elections.
I think part of the problem is that, not only are American elections important, but they are also scheduled. Most other nations have snap elections where campaigning is on the level of months. You also have an extended party selection process which takes over half a year to finish.
American media can have dedicated election journalists churning out content for far longer than other nations, so more gets written.
It depends on how close your wages are. If you both earn the same, it will be nothing. If one of you earns more than the other, you might end up in a lower tax bracket.
I really want to play redacted chaos draft.
A friend bought some low grade gemstones on the site. They aren’t good enough for jewelry, but they have other aesthetic uses.
I don’t see the benefits but I see drama this would cause.
A couple of cops dressed in civilian clothes trying to break shit.
Customers aren’t uniform.
You may have 95% of a customer base who don’t want this feature, but it is very low on their priorities. In contrast, you may have 5% of a fan base who do want this feature, and it is very high on their list of priorities.
The change seems cheap, so it is probably worth pleasing that small part of customers.
The Heritage Foundation released one that includes several former Trump staff and the current VP nominee; it is Project 2025. You aren’t going to get anything more precise out of Trump or his campaign.
Harris released her full platform and it is ok. I’m sure people want her to do more, but I don’t know if she has the votes for it.
I don’t think you are going to get a full policy update because the policies in Project 2025 are so bad and the Trump campaign doesn’t want to run on it. That’s why Trump is running on the idea he will stop immigrants from eating your pets.
