I could be wrong but I think these are prepaid, not paid on delivery…
They specified 1 significant figure — at that level it’s the same.
This is the same argument used for blaming the cost of college on government loans for education, for $$$ housing prices in cities that offer low income subsidies, for food prices due to food stamps…
That’s because you’re thinking of trucks used first and foremost for heavy duty “truck stuff.” That is not the only market for trucks, at least in the US: https://www.thedrive.com/news/26907/you-dont-need-a-full-size-pickup-truck-you-need-a-cowboy-costume
According to Edwards’ data, 75 percent of truck owners use their truck for towing one time a year or less (meaning, never). Nearly 70 percent of truck owners go off-road one time a year or less. And a full 35 percent of truck owners use their truck for hauling—putting something in the bed, its ostensible raison d’être—once a year or less.
0-60mph is mostly deprecated these days in favor of 0-62mph, which just so happens to be the same as 0-100km/h — what a coincidence!
“…and there are no comments, because it’s Self Documenting™”
Modern bots are bad, but the old school IRC (maybe early Battle.net?) bots… I’m cool making an exception for them if you are.
Stupid adults being stupid and paying for their stupidity is one thing. But 1) this affects their kids, and 2) this can affect my kid (<1yo) and anyone who can’t get vaccinated because they’re immunocompromised/etc.

A six/seven figure donation for these companies is…nothing. While I’m all for grabbing my face eating leopard popcorn, I’m not sure I’d say this falls under that category. This amount of money doesn’t feel like trying to buy favors — more like “please don’t specifically target us with your wrath of incompetence.”
This title makes it sound like he wouldn’t be a good Klingon, either. Which…is definitely true.
I bet he thinks he’d make a good Ferengi. But that’s insulting to the Ferengis…
…and Synology users will probably have to wait even longer, and pay even more — what a deal!
It’s one of the reasons I hate having one person cook and the other clean — the incentives are misaligned, and it just breeds bad habits and reckless cooking IMHO. If you do both cooking and cleaning, you’ll hopefully learn to clean as you go.
Sounds like you’ve only ever used desktops and/or laptops…
Firetrucks too, so I’ve been told.
For all the problems in the tech industry, having a large chunk of your compensation be in the form of RSUs does address this meme’s complaint. Company does well = you get paid more.
Here’s January of this year. San Francisco, so pretty moderate weather — typically don’t run heat during the day, and low 60s at night (if at all) during the winter. Large temperature gradient throughout house, typically.
South facing windows gives kitchen and living room a greenhouse effect, particularly in the winter, hence the large daily temperature swings:
