Hierarchy, military conflict, and expected economic outlook. All three are pretty bleak in the worst regions shown. External powers have the first, the countries in question are engaged in the later, and the next 20-50 years are pretty bleak for typical male occupations for the countries in question. I would expect Argentina to rise over the next few years, but who knows women may kill themselves at a higher rate under a fascist govt.

Yep ended last fall.

Here’s the new agreements.

Long story short: they won and got most of their demands met due to reality tv not pulling in the views it used to.

Spoken like a fossil.

This comm profile is only used by those badly skirting modern surveillance. It might have a future as an official black channel, but nothing truly covert.

They don’t get to block instances yet.

The ability to block Instances/Threads by user would make this a non-issue.

If you don’t need a touchscreen, AGPtek, Fiio, and Sony make music players with bluetooth for $40-80 that are great for everything except Audiobooks.

A refurbished Ipod Touch goes for about $100-200 dollars depending on gen. Generally speaking you will want 7th gen ($200+) or later for Bluetooth. The quality of the refurbishment does tend to vary wildly on these though.

Sony’s Walkman NW-A306 will do pretty much everything you want for about $300 and has a touchscreen. This is what I use for my daily Audiobook player.

I've had good results with Duluth Trading Company. Some of their stuff is still 100% Cotton or Wool, and even the synthetic stuff is heavy and durable.
