Because when they do, they start charging more for them. cough Kia/Hyundai

Right, because nobody lived here prior to the existence of FEMA.
I, for the life of me, cannot understand how people can look at the history of what our, and most other governments have done, and then say, “Hey, you know what? We need more of that!”

It’s a very personal issue for me.
I lost everything and had to start over with little more then the clothes on my back, and then to hear people say I should’ve just moved?

It’s more than a callous comment. It is the epitome of victim blaming, and the fact that you are attempting to make apologies for it is telling.

As someone who lives in Hurricane Alley, have you tried just not living where earthquakes happen?
That seems to be the standard response of those in California when a hurricane hits my area…
- HiTekRedNek@lemmy.worldtoLinux@lemmy.world•macOS 26 introduces the Containerization Framework: "enables developers to create, download, or run Linux container images directly on Mac"English6·4 天前
No. Mac is NOT BSD. Mac took the BSD user space from 20+ years ago. That’s all.
I’m not sure why this myth keeps being repeated over and over.
If that’s all it takes to “be” BSD, then windows is also BSD since the entire windows network stack was lifted from BSD
My sister can’t see the big E on the old school eye charts.
My kid barely can, as well. They’re practically blind without glasses.
Instructions unclear, now my server is slowly floating into the sky…
- HiTekRedNek@lemmy.worldtoNo Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If we replace most plastic with a non plastic alternative and would that really be better?12·7 天前
20 years ago:
"We need to stop using paper bags! They’re cutting down all the trees!” (a renewable resource)
"We should use plastic bags instead! They’re recyclable!” (so is paper, and it’s far more economically viable, but plastic is made from petroleum)
So now we use plastic bags made of a much heavier material, so we can reuse them, or cloth bags for a similar reason.
Cloth bags are made from cotton, like paper is made from trees.

Cable TV providers in the 70s: “No commercials when you pay for our services!”
Cable TV providers in the early 80s: “Ok, we actually meant no commercials on premium channels, but local channels will, and it’s not our fault.”
Cable TV providers in the late 80s: “Fine. What we meant was no commercials on movie channels.”
Cable TV providers in the 90s: “Uhm, so only on-demand shows will be commercial free.”
But that would require me installing epic games.
Nope.

Aww. they’re always so cute when they’re young! 🤣
There’s a theory that we already are. That our entire observable universe is, actually.
