That’s not fair, even ugly cats are worth loving!

You know, I’m kinda surprised there isn’t a Maid IT service out there somewhere. You’re telling me I can fix computers all day AND dress in a maid outfit? sign me up!

Spawncamping, not sure how that’d work here though.

my favorite part about reading the relevant Wikipedia article is the libertarian magazine claiming the islands were “more or less reclaimed by the sea”. As if the people already there weren’t people but fish or something. For those curious: Here is the Wikipedia article

listen if they held parties with alcohol at the gym I might actually go to one.

That would the coolest shit imaginable. I’m surprised nobody has tried making a FOSS ecosystem for the DS, considering how often users have hacked it. All I’m saying is, I wish a company would come alone and make a DS like system with modern resolution and cameras. It might do pretty well.

Some US states require you have one on the front and back. Or at least that’s what I’ve been told by a highway patrolman.

This is a defeatist take and while the answer isn’t a super simple “just tell people to not order out and cook more” we can definitely do more to help people stop relying on eating out and fast food.

The lock-downs definitely aren’t at fault for doordash and ubereats, they were there and gaining traction before covid was discovered.

I kinda wonder where the down-votes are coming from? It seems unrealistic to assume half of all currently using people will stop using facebook, youtube, and snapchat within 2 years. As much as I’d like to assume otherwise I feel like that’s farfetched even with the study posted.

Facebook is one of the social media sites banned by the Chinese government. I’m not saying they don’t use it anyway, but for what it’s worth the last time I checked it was also banned.

As someone with insomnia problems that have been reoccurring throughout my life, that was a terrifying read thank you.

Congratulations on the small victory!

This is not the age where unions have any effective impact

I don’t know, the UAW looks like it’s having plenty of impact to me. As a matter of fact, unions are looking pretty strong at the moment. But to be honest, you weren’t here to argue in good faith, you made that especially clear with your last sentence.

Even the best laid plans go awry though. The point is even if they pragmatically design it to not kill indiscriminately, bugs and glitches happen. The technology isn’t all the way there yet and putting the ability to kill in the machine body of something that cannot understand context is a terrible idea. It’s not that the military wants to indiscriminately kill everything, it’s that they can’t possibly plan for problems in the code they haven’t encountered yet.

That’s the issue being discussed here. The tests will also show up if you smoked the week before on your day off. They don’t determine whether you were high on the clock or high on the weekends only. It penalizes people who smoke weed in their free time, as opposed to people who are actively causing a problem. Additionally, booze, meth, and heroin for example, are all out of your system much faster, so it doesn’t really do a good job of determining whether or not they’ll be blitzed on the job either, which is what the comment you replied to said. The point being made is that the drug test isn’t actually going to prevent anyone from being drunk on the job, but it will prevent you from hiring the guy who tried weed once in his free time.

I have Generalized anxiety disorder, It’s chronic and therapy doesn’t “cure” it. I will most likely struggle with it for the rest of my life. While this may be an anecdotal example I’m not aware of anything that “cures” anxiety disorders, therapy is mostly there to manage the symptoms effectively. Therapy helped me understand and somewhat mitigate the problem, but it’s not something I can ever be rid of, and that’s how it is for a lot of people who have an anxiety disorder.

I always thought sci-fi uniforms were really cool, could you imagine congress in like, mass effect alliance uniforms? that would be cool as fuck.

of course, that might also be because I find business attire to be boring as fuck. So maybe most things look cool in comparison.

They forgot that 72 inch TVs were a luxury when advertising and streaming companies paid to subsidize them, so we could purchase them at consumer level all for the low price of our privacy, AND our world! It’s not out of public reach if we just make it affordable for them the worst way possible!
