Well I suppose I’ll keep that in mind! Haven’t tried that one yet myself.

Maybe at their brick and mortar locations, but I haven’t felt like the pint in the grocery store is anywhere close to good enough to be worth $9. It’s hard enough to justify Ben & Jerry’s with it’s $6 price tag.

Pediatric patient among 6 on plane that crashed in Northeast Philadelphia: ‘It was just horrific’

So… A child? What the fuck is this headline?

The headline was weird to me at first, but it WAS an air ambulance… I guess it makes more sense than I gave it credit for.

You must be getting hit by tankies, because this is a perfectly reasonable post.

I worked for a unioned grocery company for many years and there were no merit based raises, because they were negotiated years in advance and dictated by the union contract. Getting any discretionary effort was incredibly rare and difficult, because why am I going to do more and get paid trash wages for it? I’m not saying that’s the right way to think, but it’s prevelant regardless.

Well if you’re looking for caloric density, look no further than drinking oil. Enjoy.

She’s not a teacher, shes in the library. But - she is allowed absolutely zero ot. She’s already had her time card adjusted on days that she worked early or late to match her scheduled hours. And they only pay her for 7 hours a day, but it’s an 8 hour work day and she hasn’t once had the time to take a hour for lunch.

What even IS the recourse when it’s not a comproration, but the government that is stealing your wages? 🤷 I think I’m more upset about it all than she is, because the quality of life is way higher than her last job. And so I’ll just keep it all to myself.

My wife got her first pay check last week at her new job in a US school district. I was certain something was wrong when it came in, but the pay stub did nothing to show the breakdown of hours, rate, etc. She finally got a response today - and I’ve learned that school breaks are NOT PTO. She gets zero PTO she can take during the school year, and while frustrating not to be able to choose when you take your time off, I assumed that was just because she gets the summer off. But apparently she gets no PTO AND takes 71 days out of the year off without pay, effectively. So they do you the favor of paying you over 12 months, but you still only get paid for hours worked. The rate of pay seemed like it would be a pay raise on the surface, but I never anticipated needing to dock it by 20%.

Zero PTO. Just the perks of American life.

I actually somehow didn’t fully process that it didn’t say “ad free”, but rather “non-personalized ads”. Wtf. €7 and you still get ads? Insanity. This is the sort of site I would never return to again.

There is also just the one straight path from the US east coast (Florida) to Asia.

It makes me feel icky to type it out… The terms “tranny” and “transvestite” were very common nomenclature in the 90s. In conversation, movies, television. Trans people were often a punchline. And absolutely existed.

When I booted up Final Fantasy VII for the first time on my PS1, I was so confused as to why I could not start a new game. I was young, but I’m pretty sure I just shrugged and put the game away for months.

Oh very cool - that’s a very good use case that I hadn’t considered!

I just loaded up Android Studio, which has it’s own emulation layer. I’ve tried Bluestacks in the past and had trouble with it - figured that Google’s own environment would be the best option.

I only came along after Google podcasts announced that it was sunsetting, so I don’t know what the lifetime membership entailed. But I have no need for any of the paid features they offer, so I’m happy to remain a free member. I don’t really understand why I would need cloud storage… from my podcast app… and on pc, I just run the Pocket Cast app in an Android emulator since for some reason you can’t use a web browser without a subscription. Completely mystifying decision, but I’m not paying $4 a month for it.

That’s a clever option too! I do like with mine that you can still choose to pull the door fully closed without any issue, but otherwise it’s locked in a fixed position so even if the cats get the zoomies the door doesn’t fly open as they dive through.

I got one of these for the bedroom because I was sick of using a stuffed animal to prop the door open for the cats.

I thought this whole “object behind paper against a mirror” thing was just a meme at first because the result is very intuitive and not at all shocking… But then I guess people genuinely didn’t get it? People really can be so stupid.

This is a hilarious and true answer to the question.

He got banned after posting, iirc.
