Is there a business in your town, which you are 100% sure is a front?

Jump

  • A lot of car washes popping up near me with a monthly fee unlimited washes program that I'm positive is just a better version of what Walter did in Breaking Bad. Scan your app's QR code and away you go, meanwhile someone behind the scenes rings it up as a cash sale and throws $15 into the till.

    • What are some notable blunders in history that resulted in huge loss?

    Jump

  • Very true when talking historical events. Say the USA lost the American Revolution and it's now a land mass of Brits that can't believe how foolish the revolutionaries were. (Although if other colonies are any indication independence may have eventually happened anyways)

  • I'm by no means brushed up on my world war knowledge, but didn't WWI help set the stage for the nazi party's rise in Germany? Still a horrible event, but may have benefited someone even if the wrong someone?

    • Would you all prefer lemmy as a whole reaches the userbase of reddit, or to remain smaller?

    Jump

  • The best part about reddit was a community for everything with users with experience that could answer your question. Whether I needed help configuring a router, help worth a plumbing question, or advice on hiking boots I could find an answer either by searching our posting out I needed something more specific. Number of users helps build that knowledge pool, but so far I prefer the community here much more.

    I posted this comment and never would've on reddit lol

    • Sweet tea

    Jump

  • And I hate when they have only sweet tea...

    • Antarctica has a winter sea ice shortfall four times the size of Texas

    Jump

  • That is roughly 885 Rhode Island's for anyone wondering

    • A new trend in tipping emerges

    Jump

  • I like eating food though :/

    • well pump help

    Jump

  • Could be the impeller on the pump is shot, wouldn't normally go straight from working fine to completely busted, but possible.

    Could also be no water at the intake level of the well

    • A new trend in tipping emerges

    Jump

  • I'm always torn on this. I want to tip to help someone earn a living, but if enough of us stopped tipping employees would leave unless they were paid more. It does feel like adding suffering to the wrong people, but if out created change it would be nice eventually

    • Curb Your Enthusiasm and Crusader Kings III. Sounds good tbh, I'd watch that

    Jump

  • My villagers keep disappearing but all I can find is a fluffy pillow I don't recognize?

    • Curb Your Enthusiasm and Crusader Kings III. Sounds good tbh, I'd watch that

    Jump

  • Bluey and Age of Empires II. Not sure what to expect. But if we don't count watching with my daughter it would be Battle Bots and that sounds fun.

    • Relocating to access a lower cost of living as a worker is a fallacy. The survival margin is the same everywhere. The cost is a measure of opportunity. Exporting wealth risks marooning one's self.

    Jump

  • It works if you already have some semblance of wealth or can work remote. Someone looking to retire may find it doesn't work where they are but they can buy the same house for half the cost in South Dakota and suddenly things pencil out.

    And other instances may work as well. If a job is paying $20 an hour in a big city and $17 in a different area but rent is 30 percent cheaper it can be a difference maker, but relocating is expensive.

    Just wanted to defend the other side of your blanket statement

    • Party's over

    Jump

  • Instructions unclear, what do I do about the grape smuckers all over my kitchen now?
