I find the Austrian School of Economics really interesting.
Particularly books written by American economist Murray Rothbard, who talks about free markets, government (particularly government intervention) and inflation.
There’s a very short book you can read called "What has Government Done to Our Money?”
The whole model they operate on is unsustainable. Either Blackrock and vanguard keep them afloat. Or they’ll take on personal loans, issue out corporate debt. Or find ways to downscale, either job losses shrinkflation. Or raise prices. These are all desperate measures and are signs of an unsustainable company.
Losing the middle class (if that’s their target market) is a company’s biggest downfall.
And I feel that the little people will start to lose hope cause it feels like it doesn’t matter… But it’s similar to someone on credit card debt. You can only do it so long before it starts to catch up.
We’re talking about an unofficial app that has been modified to allow premium features for free.
We have that where I live and it honestly makes buying per weight / per sheet, incredibly helpful.
There’s been so many times, just looking at the packaging, I thought it was a great deal to then see the per weight price and release what a rip off it was.
Massive quality of life for sure!

Exactly, it’s still a somewhat survival of the fittest world, especially politics. Certain psychopaths get in as they have the skill to take down their opponents at whatever the costs.
Then these people with their morals and ethics have the power to make global decisions.
We made the money printers to brrr for a very long time with almost no inflation
You can’t print without consequences. The more you pump into circulation, the more currency you need to buy the same goods and services. You’re basically losing purchasing power.
If you give everyone a million dollars, you’re going to see prices increase. If prices don’t rise, people could buy out entire stocks of goods and you’ll have supply problems. So you need prices to increase to adjust for the amount of currency circulating. That’s inflation.
Chart on your purchasing power over the years:
Are these record profits adjusted for inflation? As in, are they earning more or is it nominally higher?
My logic being, overhead gets more expensive as the currency diminishes. Companies raise prices (which you’re seeing) to offset that. And then nominally, yes they’d be making record numbers. Like Zimbabwe, they made record numbers when they had hyperinflation. Didn’t mean they were doing well.
And yeah I mean it’s not just devalued currency, there are a lot of factors that go into inflation. But Id say it’s one of the biggest contributors for sure.
Interest rates stayed low for too long and people borrowed up to their eyeballs (corporations included), pumping a lot of currency into the market. That’s got to account for something no?
Until they stop printing money and devaluing the dollar…
Too many people think inflation only means price increases. That’s just a symptom. If banks and governments keep flooding the market with cheap loans and subsidies, you’re inflating the money supply, meaning you’re adding more money into circulation.
The more money sloshing around the more you’ll need to purchase goods (hence why your dollar starts to devalue)… And hence price increases.
And no government is doing enough to solve inflation, even with these rate hikes.
And depending on what brand you buy or how much you take, you could be exposing yourself to a lot of heavy metals
They’re still selling it to europe, but because of the sanctions, Russia sells it to India and then India sells it to Europe.
Basically all these sanctions did was add a middle man for Europe making it more expensive but still financially supporting Russia.
The threat wasn’t to attack. It was more of a warning, saying that if NATO was to step onto Russian soil he would use them.
Nuclear weapons are basically a defensive weapon. You never aim to use them but you have them as a deterrent. No country wants to mess with it or test whether a nuclear nation would use it
To do so is suicide, both to call their bluff or to use the weapons. So you get into a state where militarily no one can do anything (except wage a war in a country that doesn’t have nuclear weapons).
That’s kinda the purpose of nuclear weaponry. To use then it’s basically game over for everyone everywhere.
Don’t get me wrong. I do love a good conspiracy, but it needs to have plausible motivation and a mountain of evidence
Preheat the empty pan. You’ll know it’s hot enough when you throw water droplets on and it beads and dances around. Depending on the pan and situation, they’re pretty sensitive to heat so youd mainly cook on a low or medium.
Then use a good amount of oil and/or butter. I’ve even cooked eggs without much hassle.
I’ve looked into this when buying pans, I’d say it’s still unsafe. Apparently in 2013 they changed their formulation so the chemicals aren’t toxic and if ingested it’s inert so it doesn’t affect you at all.
With all that, I still don’t trust non-stick and bought myself a stainless steel pan and I love it. It’s easy to maintain and when cooking properly most things don’t really stick either.
What I don’t understand is let’s say it is flat. Why would they go to such lengths to lie that it’s round? For what purpose.
I’m fairly certain they didn’t want to include it but felt it was the only way to offer the same/better service over revanced.
I’m sure as hell happy about that. I understand the creators need their sponsors but at the same time, I cannot stand ads. Like this I’m keeping his app and frequent it more often.
Maybe but there are no FL 21 releases on AudioZ, so I’m assuming it’s not the individual upload but they’re just not allowing it
Damn you really did smoke a little too much
