You’re right China bad therefore junk science and our feelings is the only path to follow. 🙄

Nicotine doesn’t cause cancer, tobacco does.

Don’t forget about how he blames the Democrats for getting ‘canceled’ and gets a speaking role at the next Republican Convention.

Nah still pricey. I believe the article stated they were $800 which puts them at $20+/TB. 5 years ago I could get new drives at $12/TB but now I can only find these types of deals on used server drives or no-name brands.

These new 30+TB drives should be driving down the cost of the small to midrange drives but that doesn’t appear to be the case currently.

IANAL but I imagine when the plaintiff is the government, they get to pick whatever option works out best in their favor under any circumstances. It seems like rules and regulations only apply to us peons .

My kid did a discount trial of Taekwondo and they pushed all kinds of shit on us hard like special tournaments, extra classes, and of course gear which all came with added costs. It was really weird and I couldn’t take this middle aged white man seriously in his Gi as he tried to sell us expensive packages. The parents who did drink the kool-aid had those same creepy blank stares that fundamentalist Christians do and I wanted no part of any of it.

Im sure your traditional stuff like football and basketball also come with training classes, travel, tournaments, and whatever else they can use to grift parents in addition to the gear.

Or having oysters and shrimp that have been marinated in crude oil.

Yeah it’s totally because everything is “stupid” and not the fact that you have no argument outside of superficial fearmongering which falls apart under the slightest scrutiny. It’s so stupid that you keep replying with nonsense talking about how anyone else’s statements are unworthy of replying to 🙄

Okay Trumper.

Hard to argue with a solid argument such as “lol.” You really showed them who’s right.

“S/He uttered into his/her social media feed before scrolling to the next topic.”

Why is a byproduct of ‘regulations’ that don’t allow them to be manufactured in a place with reasonable safety standards. Its not too different than when the US poisoned the alcohol supply and killed or maimed a bunch of people. All they reported at the time was that alcohol/moonshine is dangerous but it was only because the government made it that way by design not something inherent to the product itself.

The coils don’t burn it’s the cotton that burns and causes dry hits and burnt flavor.

Or just another shitty study like the one they did in Oregon where they fired the coils for 60 seconds at a time and literally melted the rigs down before measuring what chemicals off gassed from the smoldering pile of plastic and metal.

Because the Trump and Biden FDA banned everything else already. Now they want to ban whats left in order to push people back toward cigarettes which can still be purchased at every gas station, grocery or convenience store in the country.

How is it any less fair than high school kids playing against someone who’s being scouted for professional sports? Do you think it was more fair for high school boys to play against LeBron James before he was drafted into the NBA? The entire argument is bullshit and framed just so to give bigots cover for their bigotry.

If you want fairness in high-school sports, force everyone be ranked based on their skill level not their gender because that’s what wins games not a dick and balls.

What a farce. People don’t want diet Republican candidates which is why the Republicans control every branch of government. The DNC would rather hand over control than allow a progressive to hold office.

I used to point this out about Hulu probably close to a decade ago on reddit and would get endless comments about how “it’s just a few shows,” “i never see any ads,” and “it’s not their fault.” I wonder if those same people exist here.

There’s literally nothing compelling these shitty companies to advertise these plans as ad free when they do in fact contain ads. Just like cellular ISPs have no legitimate reason to call their data plans “unlimited” when they cap you after using a predefined amount of data.

People only liked Blockbusters business model because there were no other options. Redbox came on the scene and decimated the company and they were even sued to get the distribution model changed so that they had to wait a month before they could rent new movies out. Now both companies are relics of the past since streaming became mainstream.

HDD prices are up over the last several years even with greater density drives coming on the scene, but it still pales in comparison to the price increases of these streaming services.
