  • They want to get reelected. They know they have to do what the Almighty Orange One says for that to happen. I'm really hoping the Democrats actually take off the gloves for this election and call the Republicans the insurrection party. Then they have to show America that one party is fully responsible and that one party has been blocking the investigation into the insurrection.

    Show the Jan 6 footage. Get an emotional response. Make the Republican voters feel like shit for allowing that to happen.

  • Amazon was never able to honor the next day or even two day shipping

    I used to travel a lot for work and needed deliveries on specific days. Amazon guaranteed delivery days were crap.

    I know a guy who actually got an official response from Amazon about that. Their response was "We guarantee 2 day shipping once the items are shipped. We may not start shipping for a day or two depending on how busy we are."

  • The fact they're still running on dos is a clue that either they can't figure out how to upgrade or they don't want to upgrade or they simply won't allocate the budget to upgrade.

    It generally boils down to money. Shops like that are toxic. They somehow don't have the budget to keep their business afloat, means you're not getting a raise.

    If you take this job, you're obsolete. Getting the next job will be tough. You're interview at the next potential role what did you do at your current role? I ran dos on 30 year old machines. Interviewer: I'm sorry, but we need someone with experience in Windows ME.

  • That's the fastest way you can prove you're an asshole in the office.

    I worked at a place where a manager refused to meet with his subordinates and instead would make and then send them videos of what he expected them to do. That did not go over well. They were all super insulated by that move.

  • Older cars, the air conditioning was simply true false.

    As in it was running or it was not running. You adjusting the temp warmer, just mixed more warm air into the chilled air.

    I do not know if modern cars work that way.

    If that's the case lower temp because higher temp is just adding warm air to your cold air.

    But then we get into how fan blower motors work. Again, in older cars (I don't know how modern computerized cars work). The blower was on or off. The fan speed knob was actually a resister that caused the fan to blow less hard by reducing the amps to the fan. I'm not an electrical engineer, but I gather the lower speed setting is consuming the same amps, but turning some into heat.

    IMO crank it. It's the same cost no matter the settings.

  • Story time:

    Years ago, I interned with the local sheriff's office. I spent most of my time there with the warrant team. They went out and arrested people with outstanding warrants. In doing so, I learned that after sentencing the convicted person voluntarily report to prison. They had to process a number of people who were sentenced to prison but never reported.

    I, like you, expected people to be transferred from court to prison after sentencing. That was a shocking revelation for me.

  • There is no way Trump would ever pick a non white person, nor would he pick a woman, well unless she was hot and he would use the promise of being VP to sleep with her.

    Trump is super racist and misogynist.

  • They think themselves special because

    A) it's a very large state, nearly as large as Alaska. Originally or was going to become several states, but it being admitted to the union prior to the civil war as a slave state the leaders of the country chose to leave it as one huge state because they wanted to keep the ratio of slave and non slave states equal.

    B) they used to be an independent country (like Hawaii). Nevermind the fact the only reason they asked to join the Union was that the nation of Texas was broke and couldn't pay their bills.

    C) they're quite populous, nearly as much so as California.

    Basically, when you're second best at everything and broke af you get a chip on your shoulder.

  • Holup, you raise an interest point. A true sanitize cycle is heat. It gets hit enough to kill everything.

    How the fuck is a plastic toilet cleaning brush surviving the level of heat sufficient to kill all bacteria?

    If the original dishwasher from the past for got enough to kill bacteria, the brush couldn't survive. Therefore, the dishwasher isn't getting hot enough to kill bacteria. Therefore don't put poopy plastic into your dishwasher!

  • It's supposed to get hot enough to kill. You're putting a lot of faith into a machine that doesn't get much maintence done on it.

    If my dishwasher does not heat sufficiently, it may take me years to discover that with no ill effects to me.

    If a poop dishwasher is not heating correctly, it may take them many rounds of illnesses before they connect the dots. That is because they're putting poop into the dishwasher which sprays liquefied poop onto all their dishes and flatware, but never sanitizes anything.

    Tldr, don't put poopy objects into the dishwasher.
