Hey, why do you hate trickle down economics so much!

/s

Yep, the other comments trying to explain away the drop are just sour grapes.

Appreciate the response and apologize for casting aspersions. Seems like a legit issue, hope y'all get new hardware soon.

Is there such a thing?

My comment was in reference to a lack of trust in voting machines, and it reminded me of someone else who thinks they "flip votes" while not providing evidence.

That's certainly true, but to catch mainstream it's still a decent gap. My mom struggled even signing into Gmail. Think about their patience as you describe the process to configure DNS records? All while there are free options available.

For us privacy focused folks it's viable and I might consider it too.

Slightly off topic - someone mentioned they don't use Tutanota for social interactions because the domain is weird and I agree whole heartedly. Everytime I'm on the phone with a support dept. or tell my friends and I spell it out I feel so silly. Not to mention my wife has gotten it wrong several times.

Love the solution, their support is responsive as well, but yeah...

Gas fireplaces usually work by separate chambers, the burn off/exhaust is drawn out the flue while a fan rotates cool air around the heated box and then back out into the house.

Gas water heaters can leak exhaust into the house if the vent hood isn't properly pulling air out of the house. I recall using a match to test that it pulled the smoke up and out.

If you take the larger words out of this comment it really reads like Trump wrote it.

Supporting article below.

Found an article/study stating propane does release benzene:

https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.est.2c09289

The isobutane/white gas stuff may too but I couldn't find anything to support that.

If you're ever out in your garage in winter and using those burner tops on a propane tank it's best to have a source of fresh air and ventilation (which of course negates the ability to heat effectively).

e: no stupid questions, lots of internet "researchers" though (myself included)

Did the detail (Explanation of Benefit or whatever) stop on their 18th then?

The argument is that a minor could make reproductive issues for themselves without a parent present or knowing. That's where they're drawing the "parents rights" from. It would reach into STD care too, for instance. Where the bill lacks a little of logic is that someone's gotta pay for the care, and that's usually a parent.

E: I see it also mentioned another point is that the father could lose his say as well.

Don't take my comment as though I'm taking a side, I wondered the exact same thing and looked up why it was stated that way.

Agreed, it's mostly community as far as personal benefits. We had a friend group through it that fell apart recently and my wife wants to go back to church only for the community.

Outreach is mostly a guise in my opinion, a show that's put on to make the congregation think their money is being used wisely. I have a lot of disdain for organized religion though, having grown up in it and painfully "deconstructing" a couple years ago. I can't step foot in a church ever again (minus a wedding).

I read something recently that simply getting the person to stop consuming the stuff works well. Obviously there's a dopamine hit these things are giving (like most anything we watch) so that's much easier said than done. I wonder if suggesting you do a challenge together - uninstall/restrict apps for 30 days - and put something on the line like a case of beer.

It's difficult though, my mom and a brother both fell pretty hard into it (he even got into sovereign citizen stuff).

I think he's just suggesting that the plugin filters it down to what an algorithm considers legitimate. These plugins usually only filter when you click the item so it wouldn't necessarily move the result down, just reduce potential purchases (which would eventually drop the result.

E: I'm probably stating the obvious above but the damage to bottom line might be after repeat findings until a user ultimately decides Amazon is mostly untrustworthy.

Do you remember pre-mass-adoption of the internet? These headlines remind of the hoax/canned spam emails, like the, "forward this on to 50 people or a loved one will die" type stuff.

Back then idiot friends would occasionally sign in to AOL from dial up and send those to me. Decades later we've turned the hoax email "To: field" into an "@" soap box that reaches thousands and echoes far quicker. I think we used to be blissfully ignorant and much less influenced back then. I miss that version of my mom, the one that didn't think masks are satanic rituals.

E: I don't want to come off as head in the sand, old ways are the best... I've developed a much better world view since the internet came along and that's a good thing.

The fool that he is McCarthy went on Face the Nation and blamed the very Dems that were working with him. The interviewer laughed at him. I'm sure that helped.

One of the biggest fears I tend to think of about in space is Kessler Syndrome where one collision creates a shotgun blast of debris that increases the chances for more collisions (cascade effect). If you've seen the movie Gravity you get a great example of how it would go down.

This was my thought, next year my escrow increases by $100 because my property is supposedly 50% more valuable? Nope, it's a wealth stealer, not a generator.

Let's also not forget that in a high value market you can't magically sell a more expensive house and acquire a less expensive house of equal value. You have to downsize and the house of lesser value is still overinflated.

Think about it - this isn't like, "oh I can't believe the news she died!" This is straight up: "yep, died of old age, totally expected." She was on the way out for a long time and everyone who supported her being there knew she couldn't fulfill her job requirements yet let her stay in office for political reasons. Which doesn't make sense to me either: her seat wasn't going to be filled by a Republican.

The raise takes effect on April 1 and applies to workers at restaurants that have at least 60 locations nationwide — with an exception for restaurants that make and sell their own bread, like Panera Bread.

Where did you get 20? And does your point about minimum locations make sense with also bringing up local joints who are explicitly exempt given said minimum?

Edit: I see, are you saying that small businesses won't be able to compete with this new wage minimum? Valid point there.
