The critical question, apparently.

Gee, I wonder why Justice Thomas might be friendly towards the accused in a public corruption case. Maybe Harlan Crow encouraged him.
Saving them for my retirement. (I will probably only retire when my health is so poor that it is clear that I won’t outlive my retirement resources.)
I worked at a restaurant as a teen. One of the managers went to Hawaii for vacation and never came back. Food service jobs are not hard to find. The bartender he was occasionally fucking was pretty unhappy because he didn’t even tell her or call.
Fifteen years ago means the patent will expire soon, so the idea will be public domain for others to implement.
Separate apps for various retail stores. I don’t want a home depot app. I don’t want a kroger app. We have a generic app for this category called a web browser. If you want me to download a specialized app for your store, I assume that means that my browser does not sufficiently breach my privacy for your “business purposes.”
If someone is proselytizing, I see them as less than human.
Coming soon to the U.S., we need the seven-day work week to outcompete our foreign rivals. Don’t you want to be rich? It will trickle down. No that is not Reagan’s ghost laughing out loud at how gullible his constituents are, why do you think that?
They have a grifter to interpret it for them. They read curated selections. It is useful to know certain passages. For example, 1 Timothy 2:12 is useful for shutting down a female proselytizing.
Caught in the act of rape? Permanent damage would not be a bad outcome.

If Goebbels Junior here got the punishment he deserves, he’d probably become a conservative martyr and rallying point. Which I think would be useful for identifying others in need of re-education.
“Our newspaper is in such dire financial straits that we can’t afford to turn down any adveriser.” does bad things to employee morale and shareholder enthusiasm (which we all know is what really matters). When the truth is too damning, you cannot run with it.
This is why ancient humans invented mob justice. When the laws don’t work, order still needs to be imposed.
My cat eats a prescription food. A 7.7 pound bag has gone from $48 per bag to $60 per bag in the last 18 months.
Looking at this idiocy from a purely practical perspective, surely housing the homeless by sending them to prison is not the most economical solution. I suppose it probably means someone’s brother-in-law gets to build more for-profit prisons though.
Big Bosses later ask middle managers: “Why is turnover so high? Are you not fostering a fun environment?” The 40 % raise for job hopping is a real mystery.
Really it has no impact on most of us. I have never used a partnership tax basis shift and almost certainly never would have. It is going to cost a bunch of obscenely wealthy jerks some money and cost the rest of us nothing. Win-win.
I am using CentOS 9 in WSL. I don’t particularly care what distribution I use because I mostly using a bash shell as a software development environment. I prefer apt to flat packs and use ubuntu 20 on an embedded system that I write code for at work. I keep wanting to get more experience with KDE and gnome, but I haven’t been good about using my free time to mess with OS. As long as I have vim and a prompt that uses vi input, I am pretty content. (Does this make me sound old? The kids at work have trouble following what I am doing when we pair program.)
And yet 2023 was the new all time high for carbon emissions, at least until 2024 is in the book. We will not cut emissions until we run out of easily extractable carbon to emit. We’ll be building solar powered pumps for oil wells at some point for the otherwise negative EROI. As a species, we deserve the consequences of our behavior. Too bad they will be most severe for some of the least responsible first.
