Whats the deal? Seems kind of suspicious to me even with the "pandemic" going on. Scalpers making millions somehow buying up a huge percentage of the available product the second it drops. It all just seems very weird and bizarre to me. PS5 dropped in November last year and still cant find one anywhere. I read any article about how the president is going to launch an investigation soon into the shortages to find out what is going on. Any thoughts?
There's a semiconductor shortage going on. It's affecting virtually every industry that relies on electronic components.
Why is there a semiconductor shortage? There's a pandemic going on, one big plant in Japan had a fire, stuff made by certain manufacturers has been banned due to security concerns, orders decreased substantially as some nations went into lockdown and the economy stagnated and now as that lifts everyone wants them again, and production capacity is reduced due to the aforementioned reasons.

President Biden would be a hero if he cracked down on that and get many gaymrrs much more comfortable with regulat'n the murikets.
Anyway they probably got devoured by cryptokiddies and the secret corporate lab funded by the Murderochs which is designing both the Karenaisha virus and the squidi MRNA vax which will make people want to stay indoors and game more while eating sustainable reclaimed carbon farmed protiens.

Do you think Biden was the best democratic candidate that could have won the primary? I'm curious who you think woulda been best.
If you ran, what would your platform be? What is the most important thing a president could do today? And maybe how?

I don't live in a productive economic area. There's two schools spitting distance from me and mainstreet. Plz don't dox and kill me. It's not bad but not great. There's some dorm like housing I guess like for sorta needy families but it doesn't look cheap. Even though it is. It's quite basic and dated.
I'm pretty sure individuals can buy whatever they want in my city and the surrounding rural area. The gated retirement communities on golf courses are deeper into the county.
Things are changing rapidly here. Housing prices doubled from a pretty static low level in the last decade. Rents pretty much tripled. More ALFs are being built rapidly and it's either a nursing degree or Walmart.
I'm not sure how I feel about SFH. I feel like it's probably going to be detrimental as culture inevitably shifts and people try to pick up the pieces. I could see how if I lived in a nice stable neighborhood SFH would protect me from kinda rowdy kids and a chaotic environment. Best solution in those areas is make it lucrative for a healthy family to board single people as students or workers. Stuff like a single apartment addon to a house and for those families to give guidance and set ground rules for their tenants.
I could see how SFH is terrible for like an apartment complex right outside a university or college or economic area.
Telecommuting. Work from home. Zoning stuff residential + like semi commercial. Lots of alternatives.
Telecommuting is super good for the environment, and like artists, administrators. Accountants. Stuff that's mostly digital.
Big office buildings could be renovated into residences and green houses.
Maybe allow people to apply for zoning exceptions for a business like a spa. Or organic veg garden market.

I agree, I think it’s more than just some factories shutting down for a bit that’s impacting this.

America would be in a better spot if it wasn't in the middle east and was more like South Canada. And we just paid Mexico for the privilege to police our borders and detain the media rather than build a silly wall.
Letting Russia interfere in South America is a big oof we may never recover from and probably wouldn't have happened if we didn't topple their governments and mess with them. And were just more supportive even if they were really imperfect.
nice meltdown
Maybe I should be a politicianess, which party do you recommend for me? Like, where do I fit in?
I think I look more like a Republican physically, anatomically tbh.
But I'm not sure 100%
I'd like to provide an alternative to absolute fascism or authoritarian communism, but I'm not really sure how.

Yessssssssss!

SFH = single family housing or households. Probably the main reason people gay marry. And a way that the state or community can kick people out of their homes if they don't conform to the states definition of family.
You're all family tho. Even the drug psychos. If I were your guardian and protector, leader, boss, owner I would take responsibility for your well-being.

So everyone says how well Japan is doing handling Corona because of handwashing and mask wearing... but then they also talk about social distancing in factories is lowering manufacturing output. They say this is the reason for the Microchip shortage.
I don’t think so. Clearly the microchips have been used in the vaccine, which is why both there is a chip shortage and Japan mysteriously no longer has Corona. Do your own research (!)
