Just don't use Ubuntu and don't use flatpacks
This reflects a lack of understanding of the good that comes out of space research. SpaceX exists because Republicans defunded NASA. Space experiments help us solve problems on earth. Not to mention we depend on satellites for everything in our daily lives from weather predictions to communications. Not all of space is "hurr durr I'm Elon musk let's go to Mars!" In fact most of it isn't.
Products getting shittier and counterfeits running rampant. Sometimes the original might as well be a counterfeit. Amazon doesn't care because it makes them money. I try to buy things from actual stores these days, but even then the quality of products is just so bad sometimes.
Like, not "oh this kitchen scale feels cheap and flimsy" but "uhh this scale doesn't weigh things right half the time"
Bruh it's a scale, how hard could it be
Oh wow that's wild
Edit: No, that doesn't seem to be the case. I'm seeing multiple sources (go banking, bankrate, Princeton) all corroborating the lack of savings. It looks like bankrate does the surveys annually too: https://www.bankrate.com/banking/savings/emergency-savings-report
Bankrate doesn't ask the savings number directly so that's maybe what you were seeing, but go banking does:
"Methodology: GOBankingRates surveyed 1,002 Americans aged 18 and older from across the country on between January 30 and February 1, 2023, asking six different questions: (1) How much savings do you have?; ..."
Not too long ago the number was around 50% and not having $500 in the bank, so at least this is technically an improvement
Scientifically speaking, writing with your hand helps a lot with memory and learning, while typing does not have nearly the same effect. Also, a lot of handwriting apps are still garbage. It's also nice for focusing to not be using a cell phone. Other than that, some people probably just like it
Same here, gib back
Okay boomer
