WTF does so many people have against pears? I mean, they're not particularly interesting, but they taste good enough and are easy to eat unlike say, oranges which are just as boring except nasty citrus, or cherries which are just as boring but have bad texture. Even apples are slightly worse than pears imo although the two are very similar.I think a lot of it has to do with inconsistency. There are pears with a bad sandy texture and an almost bitter taste, but a good pear is great. Same with cherries by the way, there are cherries that are mushy and not particularly sweet, but there are others that are amazing. --- https://imgur.com/a/FU9H8 - https://i.imgur.com/ZkQRDsR.png - https://i.imgur.com/2x2gtgP.jpg |

rice never burns or sticks to the sides/bottom like when using a pot. i make rice daily and cleaning rice stuck to the bottom can get pretty annoying.I don't know what you're doing, but I never have rice stick to my regular stainless steel pot. Maybe you're not using enough water in the regular pot. A regular pot likely takes more water since more of the water gets boiled away. --- https://imgur.com/a/FU9H8 - https://i.imgur.com/ZkQRDsR.png - https://i.imgur.com/2x2gtgP.jpg |

Are you really fighting the the face that the word Value has no meaning simply because its attached to items you personally arent interested in?I'm pointing out that defining value as "it is what it got paid for" is a meaningless tautology and that it's also flawed to claim an item that sells for less is because of "lacking sufficient market information" but somehow an item that sells for more isn't. I'm also pointing out that someone paying a certain amount for an item is just as subjective as someone else saying that item isn't worth that much. --- https://imgur.com/a/FU9H8 - https://i.imgur.com/ZkQRDsR.png - https://i.imgur.com/2x2gtgP.jpg |

No, no. That is not what we've said.Ah, so it's "lacking sufficient market information" if it sells for less, but "lacking brain cells" doesn't matter for if it sells for more? If everyone is offering oil changes for $50 but a provider manages to fool someone into paying $100 for the same service, does that mean the real value of an oil change is $100 and everyone other than the one scammer is "lacking sufficient market information"? --- https://imgur.com/a/FU9H8 - https://i.imgur.com/ZkQRDsR.png - https://i.imgur.com/2x2gtgP.jpg |

Very unlikely. TCGs, like most other collectibles, have established markets.

Like, c'mon, you understand basic capitalism. It's fine if you don't like cards, but you're not making sense just assuming a non-existent scenario in order to shit on cards.Yes I do understand capitalism, which is why I understand things like marketing which are used to make items look more valuable than they really are. --- https://imgur.com/a/FU9H8 - https://i.imgur.com/ZkQRDsR.png - https://i.imgur.com/2x2gtgP.jpg |

Usually, an item is worth the highest price someone will pay for it. If somebody sells/buys it for $1, that doesn't mean it was only worth a dollar.

The underlying issues are still present, which is why people already there are having fewer children, and the descendants of immigrants will likely follow the same pattern, so you're just throwing more people at the problem and hoping for the best. Look at Canada's current policy which is bringing in so many immigrants while jobs pay poorly and houses are ridiculously expensive. It's basically a pyramid scheme.

1337toothbrush 04/29/24 9:09:52 PM #64 | Technology that reduces crashes and makes cars safer isn't increasing insurance rates. It's the greedy insurance companies increasing insurance rates. What we really need is a government option to reduce rates. Of course the best solution would be to reduce reliance on cars, but if we can't do that then we have to recognize how essential they are to living in the US and have the government provide insurance itself, especially since having insurance is mandated to drive a car.

Putting limits on overseas speculation on home purchases wouldn't hurt either.Make that limits on speculation in general and you'll actually solve the problem in a large way. Japan had a problem with property prices in the 80s when speculation was rampant, but the problem went away when the bubble burst. The key was that the bubble stayed burst. In the US we had the bubble leading up to 2008 and then the geniuses in charge instituted too-big-to-fail policies that allowed the bubble to continue (after a brief dip in prices which let more speculators buy up properties on the cheap). --- https://imgur.com/a/FU9H8 - https://i.imgur.com/ZkQRDsR.png - https://i.imgur.com/2x2gtgP.jpg |
