There’s variations to bugs on a log?? I always hated when my uncle fed us that.

Agreed, news needs to be held to a higher standard than it is now. There’s a whole list of journalist code of ethics that basically distils to be truthful, minimize harm, be independent, and be accountable.

*some example of minimize harm;

• don’t dig through a celebrities trash looking for condoms
• if there’s an accident you don’t show pictures of the dismembered victims
• don’t identify victims of abuse
• don’t claim an accusation as fact until proven (this why every news stations says “allegedly” all the time)

I hate those arbitrary cut offs for aid. Oops, you got a raise and now make $28,100 sorry no more medicare. It locks people into low paying jobs because if they make too much, they instantly loose all the benefits that their little raise doesn’t match.

if we’re not going to do free-for-all, it should at least be on a very large scale,

make less then 28k = 100% covered,

29, 99% covered

30, 98% covered

…

All the way up to when 128k = 0% covered

(You’d have fix healthcare prices too, procedures/medicines are priced so insurance looks like they are doing you a favor “you only had to pay $700 for this $25,000 procedure and the $600 follow up medicine will only cost you $100 a week”)

100% agree. Should be opt-in per email.

I assume its more of it subscribes to your newsletter same as a user would, so when you send out the newsletter to “group 1”, the google thing is also on that mailing list.

And yes, should absolutely be opt-in, per mailing list, per email.

So this is another headline designed to get a kneejerk reaction outta people.

Basically if I’m a store that sends out a weekly email to subscribers, Google will “read” that email for SEO purposes.

If your on Android;

Amdroid is the best alarm app I’m aware of. (Called “Alarm clock for heavy sleepers” on play store)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.amdroidalarmclock.amdroid

(Best few bucks Ive spent on an app, ad version just has ads in ui, nothing crazy) It has a feature where 5 min after you dismiss the alarm, it’ll send a notification asking if your awake. If you don’t respond after a while, the alarm goes again. (Times adjustable)

Sorry I’ve typed more than intended too, I’ll put most under a spoiler so its not a wall of text…

You take that 10k you were going to drop on a crap used car, use that as down payment on a new car. Get a longer loan with lower interest and keep monthly payment lower. The larger the down payment, the lower the monthly will be, and now you have 10 years to set aside money for the next new car or “out of warranty” repairs.

There are still new cars that have a sticker less than 30k, after warranties and any desired upgrades, probably closer to 35k-40k for anything not a truck, EV, or sport car.

There’s also people who lease, they pay lots of money to rent a car for around 3 year, after that they trade in for a new car and the old car gets sold as used.

You can do school loans if you start paying bigger. Not sure what your debt is or how large your financial cushion needs to be, but if extra cash is sitting in checking not earning interest, its loosing value while your student loan interest keeps ticking up.

For me after setting aside money for savings, I kept what I needed + plus a small amount for whatever and the rest got dumped into loans, had that shit payed off in a few years. Think my total interest payed was around 3k, I know some people basically end up doubling their debt over the 10 years with some crazy interest rates. (Went to state school, so loans were about 50k for everything, I know some private schools are triple that)

(Also open a saving account or something, your checking account shouldn’t have access to all your funds in the event of debit card theft, especially if you use that online)

If that went through a censor, they need a new censor.

Well there’s your ticket out “we’re sorry the manufacture has discontinued this feature, here’s a new solution”.

Also its 100% better if the clients finds out the feature is missing via your company. A good company will make it right, ideally by adding the feature retroactively at no cost. If it can’t be added, open the checkbooks and refund the difference or find a new solution at a reduced cost (quote the new stuff, but not the replacements).

Sounds like it’s above your paygrade, if the company loses the client that’s not on you (even though they can still blame you)

Time to update the resume.

If you’re already on shaky terms, this mess could be pinned on you and you’ll be out the door before you get a chance to pull up the paper trail leading to your boss.

In a less drop everything and run scenario, Is this feature a physical add-on or something done via software. Could always dig the hole deeper to stall for time and say parts are on backorder or someone key to implementing the feature is on sudden bereavement leave.

Thats a nice work around lol.

I haven’t tried keepassium. My main device is an android, so the IOS search was brief and focused on ones that didn’t say “in-app purchases”.

Keepassdx is sadly not on ios.

The only good one I’ve found is called strongbox. Free version works fine, but the pro version prices are insanity for something that is free everywhere else. I could get behind a lifetime buy of $10, but for $99 hell no. (Monthly sub is $3 or $25/year).

Looking at the app store now, most of the keepass apps have some form of in app purchace.

Only truly free one is call keepass touch, but frankly when I tired it, it sucked.

It’s the only time you will, even auto correct will work flawlessly for you when your you’re intentionally trying to make mistakes by typing large and complicated words.

Edit: it still can’t fix your to you’re

Its an objective that is causing a major fucking problem for the people who want to sell their tesla but can’t without going bankrupt. You’re hurting thousands (hundred of thousands?) of people to stick it to one man.

People setting fire to a car forces fire fighters to have to put that out. That’s a waste of resources, possibly delaying other calls, and its a fucking fire. It doesn’t take much for the situation to become dangerous

Not hard to imagine the risk of something exploding or “sorry we couldn’t get to your hose 5 minutes earlier to save your baby because were scrambling around town dealing with arson”.

It’s not worth the risk.

The problem with selling a Tesla is the greatly reduced sell value, who wants to buy a car with such a shit reputation they’re getting set on fire? Either the crazy Musk/trump idolizers or someone who lives under a rocks and will gladly a buy an extremely expensive sedan for cheap. Unfortunately, unless their dumb enough to put a giant maga sticker on the car (but then how do you know someone isn’t vandalizing cars with stickers like that to watch other people harass the owner), there’s no way to know anything about the person driving it. They could be renting it because their’s broke down and that’s the car that was available, we simply do not know.

Tesla owners are basically being forced into loosing around 20k. Even selling it, they still have to pay off the rest of their loan. If they still have 30k to pay, and only sell for 20k, there’s still 10k on loan. then another 5k for a down payment on a new car. Do you have 15-20k sitting in the bank your able to spend and loose 20k in assets without it being a financially stupid idea? Not many do.

Only if the loan is payed off the loan or almost done could it make some since to sell the car at a 50% loss. It sucks, and should be done to get rid of the Tesla, but I still feel bad for the folks who wanted the EV for the environment/at home charging/no gas and got sold into the Tesla marketing.

And okay, my UHC example is easily broke on an individual level, but companies still choose the provider. Do we go set fire to random businesses that picked United Healthcare? That’s not gonna hurt UHC, it’ll just hurt the families of the workers who no longer have a job.

If you want a different example, insert Nestle or something, same idea applies.

And I’m going to emphasize this again, nothing musk does is justification for risking anyone’s life with burning cars.

It’s regular people who are stuck with a Tesla. They got sold in to the EV crowd, and until the last 5 years Tesla’s were pretty much the only major fully electric option do the charging network. They were lied to by Musk with promises that never came. One thing they did get is a nifty video security system, I bet the cops are loving all the video evidence. Not everyone can just sell their car at a major loss to get something different, life ain’t that easy.

I’m gonna say it; if an Arab man set someone’s car on fire, or started attacking dealerships they’d be charged with terrorism with out a second thought. 5 years ago if a white man in a red marvel hat keyed a Tesla or set it ablaze, the same crowd keying/lighting cars today would be calling for blood. Sick of the “rules for you, none for me” bullshit.

Destruction of property is not a protest against Tesla, its a crime against the people who own the car, a burden on taxpayers, fire fighters are risking their lives to put out those Tesla fires because “protesters” got upset at 1 dude they can’t reach and decided to take it out on the closest person they could.

Should we start stabbing people with United Healthcare now?

How many set their password to your example? They just look up the password when they forget.

Its cool you got them using bitwarden, I should probably get my company to switch, I know there’s a PDF company account passwords floating around…but I’m pretty low on the totem pole.
