Wow you’re confidently incorrect. Your article is from before Scalise dropped from the race. She’s voted for Jordon in the vote this week.

You can’t see the outside of the other leg?

This is one of those franchises that I never liked because of over hype. My buddies were talking this game up so damn much, talking about how awesome it was. I just kept thinking "ok when does it start to be fun? "

When I got to the twist, I was so disengaged that it just soured it even more for me. I wish I could play it without the hype so i could form a different opinion

Any idea what Google are doing? Is this because I dont use Chrome (use Firefox)? I've no adblockers. (lemmy.world)

So this started coming up today. On every video. I can (so far) click the “x” and remove it to watch (still see 2 ads before the video, and one after 4 minutes - ruins music on YT), but did click the “Report issue” only for the dialogue box not to work....

I have to disagree with you that it’s not a form of payment. How many platforms offer a subscription model to go ad free? Ads are a revenue stream for any given platform. You either pay the platform with your money, or your time watching ads.

If you disagree that you can’t pay for things with your time, then we will have to agree to disagree

It’s a small price to pay for a corroborating witness. This guy is a footnote, at best, in this story.

Canadian, probably? Niagara is on the usa/Canadian border

You realize that quote is from the Jewish victim in the story, right?

Fraud is just good business practice! He’s so smart for that

Yea I guess I should have used /s on that comment. That’s exactly what I was referencing

Now throw in a being a single parent!

I honestly don’t know how people do it. When my wife’s out of town for a week, nothing gets done beyond basic survival. I don’t have time to do any other chores, and I only work 1 job.

_Sc00ter ,

I never had more time than living alone. Having a spouse and 2 kids is mayhem.

The kids make the things you mentioned impossible. I’m up an hour before them to get the day going. Then it’s getting everyone together to get to work and daycare. Pick up kids from daycare after work, cook/have dinner, a little down time (like 30-60 minutes tops) which is spent with my kids, then it’s baths and bed time routine for both of them. At this point, it is somewhere between 8 and 9, depending on how bedtime went and you haven’t even cleaned up dinner or their lunch stuff. Now you can’t leave your kids alone in the house, so you can’t run any errands.

If you have practice or activities after daycare, push everything back another hour or 2.

It’s a lot to do, which is how I dont understand how single parents do it every single day. I can handle it for a week, but a lot of routine chores don’t happen. Things like a load of laundry goes in at 10p and I pass out and it sits wet until the next day.

_Sc00ter ,

This was in reply to “when my wife’s out of town for a week.” And me talking about how i have no idea how single parents do it… So… not there. When she’s home, the duties are split and it’s manageable

_Sc00ter ,

We have a saying in the brewing community, “don’t yuck someone else’s yum.” Everyone has different tastes. Let them enjoy it even if you don’t. It’s not hurting anyone. And that goes beyond beer

_Sc00ter ,

Part of that is seasonal. You’re not going to get a stout in the summer, just like you’re not going to get an Oktoberfest in the spring or a Shandy in the winter. Like you said about IPAs, there are so many variations, they’ve become a year round beer. Other year round beers are things like lagers and ales. Comparing a seasonal style to a year round beer isn’t a fair comparison

If you can’t find a stout on tap in the winter, you’re going to the wrong breweries

_Sc00ter ,

Just because you drink them year round, doesnt mean most people do. They dont brew them in the summer because they cant sell them enough to make it profitable.

You definitely have a point there about only having ipas at a brewery. IPA is the easiest beer to make, and the easiest beer to hide any imperfections. 1 of our 2 main breweries in town basically only does IPAs. Took them like 5 years until they did something that actually was good and not an IPA

_Sc00ter ,

You’re seeing NFL on lemmy? I don’t see it at all and wish I did. Where can I find it

And that guy in your pic is 54, pushing 55. Nowhere near 35.

most of these Republicans didn’t watch or read even a summary

Why would they? It’s all fake news

_Sc00ter ,

I’m here. I miss some of the smaller communities I used to be apart of. I go back if someone sends me a link, unless it’s NSFW. I don’t have the app, so I just tell people I can’t see that link anymore. shrug

Speak for yourself. My company only stopped using Fortran this decade.

Don’t often see jags on the internet. You throwing back an IC right now too?

Remote or hybrid workers, would you rather work a 4 day week on site, or WFH completely for 5 days a week, for the same pay?

I know this will vary a lot, so hypothetically let’s say you currently WFH/work remotely at least 3 days a week. Your commute to work takes an hour max (door to door) each way. If you were given the choice of a 4 day week working onsite, or a 5 day week WFH (or as many days as you’d like) for the same pay, which would you...

I feel like this sentiment is exactly backwards in the USA. Corps want to be better than the govt, so they give them excessive $

_Sc00ter ,

I honestly have no idea what they stand for. Their posts are so confusing and non coherent. I’m sure a lot of it is because sarcasm doesn’t work with text unless you have context. But without context, all it comes across as is a bunch of trolls who just love to hate

I couldn’t care less about them

_Sc00ter ,

I dont understand. Is there something wrong with being free?

_Sc00ter ,

Ah so you’re just generalizing. Got it

_Sc00ter ,

I work for an international conglomerate. One of our major pieces of internal software is SUSAN named after the guys wife. I’ll never remember his name, but his wife will always be in my mind

_Sc00ter ,

Why wait for them to ask you?

_Sc00ter ,

My wife had been after me to go to couples therapy. I was convinced we didn’t need it. After a while, I just scheduled something and sent her an appointment notice. Figured if she thought we needed it, I’d give it a try.

She called the therapist and cancelled our appointment soon after i sent her the notice. She claimed, “we didn’t need to spend money on that right now.” She hasn’t brought it up since.

No idea what that was about

_Sc00ter ,

Not a teacher, but I’m salaried and have to log every hour each day. Ours is for contract and project costing purposes though

Just had a sixer of Victory Sour Monkey. They soured a Belgian Tripel. It’s awesome

Drove a manual for 15 years before I got a more family friendly car.

doesn’t mean shit

It could to people it’s targeted at. I know a lot of devote catholics because I was raised in that faith. Some of them might actually listen to these comments from the pope. At the very least, if they defy the pope, then they’ll at least stop affiliating with the church.

If they stop affiliating with the church, that’s a win IMO. these people don’t follow Jesus

_Sc00ter ,

Honestly, I consider that a win. A huge reason I left the catholic faith wasn’t because of the religion itself, but because of the people who claimed to follow Jesus but in practice did nothing like Jesus.

_Sc00ter ,

I just think he’s saying that the interpretation needs to adjust to current times

_Sc00ter ,

A part of that real estate equation is that the municipalities give tax breaks to the companies because they anticipate the extra people in the area getting them more money from gas stations, lunches, etc. Those contracts usually state that the building needs to have a certain occupancy for them to maintain the credit… and now municipalities are coming knocking for their back taxes since buildings haven’t been full.

Thats what’s happening around me, at least

_Sc00ter ,

Almost 20 years later. Would he have still been acting without dumb and dumber?

_Sc00ter ,

My company has this and just about everyone I work with utilizes the unlimited time off. Most people land in the 5-6 weeks of vacation a year + sick + personal business + holidays.

There are the few who make work their hobby too, but you can’t do anything for those people IMO

_Sc00ter ,

Personal business is for things that need to be done touring business hours but aren’t vacation. Things like doctors appointments, meeting a service person to fix something at your home, or some delivery that requires you be home. Those kind of things

_Sc00ter ,

If you want to see it easily, check the Chipotle app. They contract their delivery, so if you change menu from pick-up to delivery, you can see before your eyes how much it’s marked up.

My wife and I used to argue about getting Chipotle delivered when it’s less than a mile from our house. I’ll gladly go pick it up and save the $10-15

_Sc00ter ,

Not going that route, but covid quarantine definitely showed me how much time I can save by having someone else do my grocery shopping for me.

My grocery store has an annual membership of $100 which includes same day pick up and next day delivery (in a refrigerator truck), among other benefits. Grocery shopping is done on my couch in a fraction of the time. While handling 2 toddlers, that benefit is well worth it to our household

Is it possible to burn fat without changing my weight?

I have been working a very labor intensive job for about 3 months now and have lost enough inches on my waist to go down two pants sizes yet my total weight when I go on the scale remains around the same. How is it possible that I lost 4 or 5 inches off my waist yet the scale doesn’t change? Is it possible what weight in fat I...

providing science

this is my personal experience

This might have something to do with the down votes. You’re using your anecdotal evidence and providing it as science, and you seem to be aware and confident of it

I’ll have you know I looked at every single one in this thread
