For the shoplifting thing, it depends which store it is. Big chain grocery store? Yeah, I couldn't care less what someone takes. Small single owner shop? Fuck you for stealing from that guy. Those stores struggle enough just trying to compete with the Walmarts of the world.

There is no "they". Manufacturers respond to whet people are buying, and try to predict where that trend will go. If that trend went towards different keyboard layouts, they'd do it. None of them have any actual vested interest in a given keyboard layout.
Yeah. It's one of those things where while a different solution is technically better, the benefit doesn't come close to outweighing the effort of changing for the overwhelming majority of people. And so the status quo remains.
Also, I sincerely doubt that the city would have enough busses to carry the whole population simultaneously (it would never really make sense to have that many busses), and in this case, the nearest population center is a four hour drive away.
Although, if there were a high speed rail link between Fort McMurray and Edmonton, that would take a lot of pressure off.
I don't care what system you implement, staying alive is going to require labour. We're nowhere near utopian sci-fi style post scarcity yet.
I'd say it's got less to do with making money off the status quo, and more to do with lack of money in any of the alternatives. Most people can't type fast enough for extra layout efficiency to matter, and even fewer people care.
I can't even fathom how much water it would take to put out 8 sq km of fire.
Remember kids, every accusation is a confession with these people.
If the number 100 takes you appreciably longer to process than 60, you probably aren't qualified to be driving anyway.
Unless you bought the game in one of the countries where you can't sign up for a PlayStation account, then you can just go fuck yourself.
Nope. Those are the "purebred" ones. You know, the kind of purebred that actually means inbred to the point of barely being able to survive and yet somehow "worth" more.
The analogy kind of falls apart since she is not limited to this guy and Chad. She's free to choose nothing at all. With Trump vs Biden, there's no viable third option, and having no president is not one of the options. So the "Trump is worse" argument becomes viable simply because you do have to choose one of them.
