What’s the net pH after mixing a glass of alkaline water and a ‘spritz of lemon’

There is no money printing. The US Government “prints” ie issues, all money is “printed”, always has been.

Then the Gov taxes it back. And banks make you pay back loans. You can’t pay taxes unless you have money, so spending comes first. Spending creates income.

No one ever lends US Govt any money. They make it, China has Dollars because they export to the US, not because they are financing US domestic borrowing.

This isn’t exclusive to the US, it applies to China, Russia and all others too. None of their federal Governments borrow.

Nothing will change if you don’t believe it can. If all this does is delay fascism for a day. That’s one less day of people dying and suffering for really stupid and avoidable reasons. Seriously, what’s the point of your comment? Are you trying to get me bummed out and not vote? by deaf_fish @negativenull@lemm.ee

Individual votes have no value. It was Biden and Kamala’s fault for not campaigning on good policies. Hexbear’s (or leftist) stance on whether or not to vote for him doesn’t change this.

Also, Biden is directly responsible for deaths of hundreds of thousands of people by aiding Israel, and Democrats are responsible for many more domestic deaths by the way of social murder especially considering they had majority control for some time. That Trump may kill more doesn’t change this fact.

My point exactly, it should be $600 for the Pro XL.

Pixels don’t even have that. Chinese phones give you silicon carbon batteries atleast.

But really I don’t think pixels are bad if it cost like $500-600

Pixel people cope saying it has “features”. I like the Pixel UI and all but it’s not worth it for what is a mid range phone priced at flagship.

Meanwhile there are Hundreds of Democrats that desperately need replacing and could actually swing the balance

What does that have to do with anything I mentioned? Did I say anything about other Democrats?

Once maybe. The fact is that the US and Israeli arms industries have commingled and each relies on the other for different expertise. A full arms embargo would certainly lead to at least the risk of Israel trading arms secrets for access to weapons made elsewhere. Israel is not a passive purchaser of weapons or intelligence technology.

No, the entire economy is propped by the U.S. backstop. Israeli bonds, currency, financial assets are valued highly because U.S. defends it. It’s not always as explicit as military ‘aid’.

Also, if these are the kind of arguments AOC is thinking about, she deserves to lose. I’m not attacking you, but AOC.

Every foreign policy decision has ramifications that go far beyond the immediate. Israel isn’t going to not have a missile defense shield so, if they don’t get it from us, they will get it from someone else.

Ok, so? If U.S. does that and even if other countries starts arming them, U.S. will at least have a moral high ground.

There is no evidence any of these countries will give Israel weapons btw.

If there is an arms embargo, Israeli economy tanks since much of it is propped up on the U.S. being the backstop.

Try disabling it with this, maybe?

I kinda respect the EU for kinda fighting the American tech Corps, DMA and all. But then again, the amount of damage it has done to European people and economy just makes it irredeemable.

That said, boycotting American products isn’t the same as praising EU.

and the whole thing is based around killing and eating one another.

“impressive”? GLAZE ALERT

Maybe, but are there any ARM chips and motherboards you can buy freely (at least for consumers)? No its all embedded, all soldered on, no upgrade path. This is why I hate Apple Silicon you have to buy their trash everything else.

Tldr government could mismanage and misallocate as if private capital hasn’t done enough damage to Intel.

Also fuck the markets. There are no “free” markets with chips, x86 is a duopoly. Chip making in general is an oligopoly.

RIPE Atlas is what you are looking for. Not sure about probes in Palestine.

why do CBDC? SEPA/SEPA Instant already exists and can clear payments just fine without involving VISA/Mastercard. Will people recieve salary in this digital Euro account? probably not because banks lobby, they want cheap funding source i.e. customer deposits. most people wouldn’t want it since there is no interest paid (compared to tiny to moderate interest in savings accounts), you don’t have card even as an option. Like I don’t mind ppl using central bank liabilities for payments but the entire capitalist financial infrastructure is built around commercial banks. its just inconvenient having to transfer money between commercial bank and ECB wallets.

It won’t destabilize existing financial system or result in bank runs, all banks in the Eurozone are ultimately backstopped by the ECB. bank lending isn’t reserve constrained, it is true that losing cheap deposits may reduce profitability of banks, but that’s it. they will be able to lend just fine because of ECB’s LTROs, TLTROs etc.

the privacy argument against CBDCs is silly though. Commercial banks ultimately work because of Government, they use Government money for clearing. Governments can just ask them for your data if needed.

Subsidize SEPA/SEPA Instant. Make it free, a public service. Market it by using the said arguments, people will use it more then. Maybe even force banks to issue cards like Mir in Russia or Unionpay in China.

People are employed at these places, people spend money, workers get income etc.

Its straight up included in the GDP figures as it’s a service.

Bullshit, Prime Minister should only be removed by confidence vote, this is not it.
