This is a difficult problem to solve.

Starving the entire population, half of which are children, is an inhumane solution. If it is too effective, it becomes the final solution.

Congrats on giving Republicans one extra vote.

Micropayments would scale at a ridiculous rate like microtransactions in games have, so your $20 example would be at least $200 in reality by now.

You have the same income image for both links.

The median cost for a one bedroom apartment in the US is NOT $5,000 a month. First result on my search has $3190 for New York, but most of the listed cities are around $1,500 a month which is $18,000 a year.

I get angry because of frustration about things beyond my control that impact me negatively and can't simply be ignored. Knowing that extra step is great and all, but doesn't reduce the frustration or the anger. I'm sure that identifying the difference is helpful to some people who can ignore or address the actual cause of their anger.

Note: I don't get angry about frustrating things that I can do something about, or can be ignored.

Am on the tail end of Gen X and when I started working even low pay allowed me to afford a place to live, food to eat, and doing fun things occasionally. While work sucked, it at least paid the bills and allowed the freedom to live. Plus there were still some companies that offered actual long term perks, tried and keep people with experience around, and promoted from within.

Gen Z still gets the low pay, but are treated as expendable, and can't afford anything and so it is understandable that they would hate working in comparison.

Ahhhh, I was.wondering why they would take the time to set up an API with that data and forgot that almost everything has a way to just dump things into it without needing to be set. I forget because where I work we actively avoid that approach because of risks like this.

When they make low effort cosmetics they are both restricting features that could be in the game and incentivizing themselves to prohibit a modding community that adds a ton to games for free.

Someone with a compromised immune system dying of a disease that has mild symptoms in the five other people who have ever been diagnosed with the disease is the opposite of terrifying.
