While good, indictments are only one step in the legal process, they are not the end result. Most people were not confident we would even make it this far into the legal process with how much the justice system favors those with money and power and this situation has literally never happened in our history. We have never had a former president indicted for crimes.
we had a Boston Market that had a lemonade machine which would 96% of the time give you a static shock the first time you took a sip of the lemonade. I miss them
I don’t recall seeing anybody say he wouldn’t be indicted, but that ultimately he wouldn’t face “serious” consequences or any jail time. We’ve yet to find out what, if any, consequences he’ll actually face. My uneducated guess is that he’ll just be given house arrest for everything, based on age and his former position as President. It sounds like the Georgia indictment may carry mandatory prison time, but we still haven’t seen how any of that will play out, it could still be affected by Republican fuckery. I would love to be proven wrong on everything and he gets the book thrown at him, but current/former world leaders have a tendency to not face the consequences of their actions (except in some extreme situations).
Hotel air conditioners feel like perfect air conditioning. Likely due in part to hotel rooms being a small space, usually limited to one outside window, and they are usually good sized units so they will cool it very fast and effectively. Also the rooms are usually warm when you first enter, and so you turn on the A/C and immediately feel the room getting colder.
Similarly, McDonald’s pop is essentially perfect. McDonald’s arguably strives for consistency above all else, so you know that a Sprite from any location will be the perfect mix, the exact right about of carbonation, perfectly chilled with jus the right amount of ice. It will even have their specific large diameter straw to ensure the ideal flow rate when you drink.
Its just that the syrup ratios are turned up because they realized at some point the average time from pour to first sip is long. So that first hit before the ice melts is extra sweet. McDonald’s soda without ice is grossly sweet, especially coke or dr p.
I never got this. I only had coke, but it tastes watery just like fountain drinks anywhere else. With plastic bottles being the baseline, fountain drinks are consistently below it, even at MCD. The only coke I actually find better than this baseline are from the glass bottles.
They ozonate the rooms to kill all the germs and creepy crawly stuff and it’s similar enough (2 oxygens in CO2) to how they fizz the carbonated water in the sprite. The sprite is light enough in taste, vs coke or pepsi, that you notice it more. That’s my guess but if I’m wrong, please correct me.
I used to work in a very very large well known hotel, ozone machines were only used to remove cigarette smells from guests who broke the rules.
And no one can be in the room while the ozone machine was running. They even had auto-shutoff timers so you could retrieve the machine after it had turned itself off and the room air was breathable again.
It takes several hours to run. This isn’t something you do to every room every time.
We had those types of tests but as to what type of secondary school you would fit in. I of course did not take that test, because I already had a plan. And those who did, ignored it anyway. Not sure what is worse. These job tests, or what people use as a reason for their decision, or the lack of one. Studying computer network technics, two in my class were actually interested in computers. The rest: ,Well, I play videogames, so I figured I could do well here."
-their answer to the question of why they picked that study
Naaa. it really isn't hard to teach the left hand to use a righthanded mouse. I got used to it within a day.
I'll take some minor awkwardness that is easily overcome vs being someone's property and being denied a livelihood any day.
