I'll find one on the used market or do whatever it takes to fix it

I have an old 60 inch 1080p TV from the early days of smart tvs. It has a built in app for plex and youtube, a remote that works as a pointer, it's insanely slow but it has zero ads and I'm never ever getting a newer model.

It takes like 5 minutes to vote and so far it has worked without issue. The same digital ID system is used for digitally signing documents, banking, medical history etc as well.

Isn't a vice president in the US just a backup incase the president croaks? Do vice presidents have any real power?

True, if you wanna play games with really high requirements you need to cough up mu h more than 700 euros, I'm just saying the Steam Deck is better value than a PlayStation.

Or a steam deck. The cheapest option for that is like a bit under 400 I think and it doubles as a PC while having a massive library of games plus emulation.

I'm not gonna do work to buy their games, I'll just pirate them if they make it more annoying than buying.

Inflating money only loses purchasing power if it's tied to the value of something else as I originally said. That was literally my original point.

And what do you mean by USD debt?

So what makes the stuff stores buy more expensive? Like you can create a chain of price raising as far as you want but ultimately it's just someone deciding to raise prices and that creating inflation.

Again, only a handful of countries own US debt and I don't even know how US debt interest rates are going to connect to inflation in other countries. Like China and Japan are the largest debt holders and their inflation is vastly different.

There are a handful of currencies backed by USD but most are not. I only know of Belize dollar, the Hong Kong dollar and the Dirham as backed by USD, as far as I know those are the only ones.

Do you think stores look at the inflation and raise their prices accordingly or do they raise their prices and inflation is calculated based on that? One of those is correct.
