I mean, food can be made cheaper with less regulation too, that doesn't mean that's the right answer or even a good answer. Most of that stuff you mentioned has been in place for a long time. The more recent blowup in cost isn't directly related.

I can't tell if this is sarcasm. The housing market is suffering due to "real estate investors" just buying out and renting houses that used to be non-rental. Investment is driving up the cost of housing significantly. There's going to be a reckoning as wages are kept down and mortgages keep going up though. Eventually rent to cover mortgages are going to be too high and it's just going to push out the small time real estate investors, and either more companies will move in or there'll be a small drop in pricing.

If it has been done after school, they'd complain about police interrupting dinner. This was a no win situation. I guess they could have asked the parents to bring the kid in, but I don't see why white glove service is required for an ugly crime like that.

Don't threaten to kill people and you won't be 'shamed' by getting arrested at school.

I've seen a sudden influx of memes all about this and I don't know why. It's suddenly the new trend and I don't understand it.

What did they convert to? I can't tell if this is a joke I just don't understand or what

ChatGPT is why the public is scrambling about AI. AI art has been around awhile and there's always been complaining because its lame compared to real artists. This has fuck all to do with it suddenly being open source AI.

I'd imagine it's something that can be turned on and off, just like it's stealth technology.

Edit: to further expand on this, finding the downed plane is a lot more important than it sounds. This could technically be classified as spillage considering there is classified tech in an F35. Foreign agents would benefit if they found it first. I'm pretty sure there are recon teams trained to recover downed aircraft in military zones. Considering they still are equipped with radio for communication, I'd imagine even just an encrypted message at time of impact could be useful.

Losing a plane over friendly zones shouldn't have to worry about having a beacon that's always on. I fail to understand why it would be silly to believe one could be useful in a jet fighter, stealth or not. I'd imagine it's likely even present but just defunct for whatever reason in this scenario and details can't be revealed about that, as again, it still contains classified technology.

Still about some Canadians. You are still splitting hairs. The lessons aren't specific to Chinese heritage people.

Do they not put beacons on their seats either? How did they find the pilot? I'd imagine if it were an issue, it could be deactivated in wartime or over enemy lines.

Anyone who thinks that was the main plot point didn't actually watch it and just listened to crazy people complaining about the movie.

Pretty sure the main character was born in Canada making them Canadian.

Don't black boxes have beacons of some kind?

I'd also imagine an airtag is useless in this scenario as if it crashed and no one knows about it, it's likely not near someone's Bluetooth enabled phone either.
