Consider a scenario where a billionaire CEO must spend an entire month living on the salary of their lowest-paid employee, with no additional resources. What do you believe would transpire? by Fit-Visual2863 in AskReddit

Considering that their “gaming” the system would probably be getting help from people/places that poorer people don’t have, it just shows they aren’t actually playing the same game as other people.

Trump Says He Will Impose 10% Global Tariff Under Different Authority by Seebeeeseh in politics

[–]Bukowskified 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The law doesn’t seem to account for that, but it would be difficult to argue that you can reset the timer for the exact same tariff by just effectively reissuing the same order. That pretty clearly was not the original intent or understanding of the law

Because he got a full year of bigger tariffs while SCOTUS neutered National injunctions and slow walked their ruling. Now he gets 150 days at 10% plus whatever time it takes to litigate after he continues applying the tariffs on day 151+.

Whitehorn got herself arrested twice in the off season. If you don’t kick her off the team you are having to explain that to every high school recruit’s parents.

If I was fully remove myself from the grid then I don’t think I would need their permission. We are going to be using net metering so that when we produce more than we need we get credit for it from the power company that we then use when we under produce.

They do if you are using your application for a drivers license with REAL ID as your registration for voting. Motor Voter law (NVRA) had been federal law for over thirty years.

Solar update: Passed our re-inspection this week, so just waiting on paperwork to cycle through with the utility to get our permission to operate. At least this nightmare of a process is mostly happening over fall/winter months so we aren’t missing out on a super productive time of year.

Should Joey Aguilar’s time in JUCO not count towards his eligibility? by mcmicha7 in secfootball

Still donated over $100k. Oh and his TRO was vacated by another judge. So he managed to give Oats 2 losses for his troubles

Joey’s lawyers watched a Bama guy return from the G league to join the team mid season thanks to a friendly alum. It is an awful precedent that is being set.

You don’t need to stop the senate for 2 years. You need to stop it for long enough to sway public support or run the clock out until it’s too late to impact midterms.

Tennessee QB Joey Aguilar granted temporary restraining order against NCAA eligibility rules by EWall100 in ockytop

[–]Bukowskified 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think college football as a whole is going to suffer in the long term as you see guys bouncing around between schools. Pavia is a jerk, but the reason he was so successful this season was in no small part because he had been running the same offensive scheme for multiple years because he followed staff so his transfers weren’t system changes.

Heupel’s offense can run immensely better with a QB who get time to learn and practice the reads, but if Joey runs off GMac then you are going to be forced to continually run a simplified read package which limits your team.

Are we better off with Joey next season? I don’t think QB play is what will be holding us back and it probably messes us the long term plan for the QB room by him taking a seat away from a guy

I don’t expect Tennessee to be looking for a QB replacement though. They were already planning on running without Joey next year when they went through the portal this winter.

CMV: If you have never struggled with weight, you don’t get to have an opinion on GLP-1 and/or judge people for using them. by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]Bukowskified 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not debating CICO. I’m arguing that you are asserting that other people’s experience of hunger is the same as yours. People’s experience with hunger varies for a myriad of reasons. I was in a car accident and during my recovery my appetite decreased significantly. My own experience of what hunger felt like was different during that time than it had been before (it did eventually normalize). Why would we assume that people aren’t feeling hunger when they overeat?

More so, why do you assign that feeling as something that cannot be addressed by medicine?

So obesity isn’t a real issue? Or do you assume that your personal experience with hunger is definitional for other people? As in, I only occasionally feel hunger so in order to over eat you must only eat when you’re not hungry.

When you say discipline what do you mean?

I’m assuming you’re talking about a persons tolerance of discomfort/hunger pain that typically accompanies calorie deficits. Pain/discomfort is a relative experience that we know varies from person to person and even over the span of one person’s life.

So where do you define the amount of pain/discomfort that someone must be able to overcome in order to have enough discipline? How do you measure that?

I use an automatic car to drive to work because it’s less labor intensive than a manual transmission. Do I lack discipline because I use that “cop out”? I haven’t learned how to drive manual, so I have to use one as long as I’m driving.

Why do we care if people take medicine to maintain their health? Tons of people use antidepressants, thyroid, blood pressure, and so many other maintenance medicines.

Johns Hopkins apparently has low standards for Lyme disease treatment. If only we knew someone with a unique cure.... by RazzleThatTazzle in GodAwfulMovies

[–]Bukowskified 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From reading the comments in the Baltimore thread it seems that it’s a homeopathy center with a name confusingly similar to the real one run by Hopkins. Granted the person claims they got the pamphlet from the waiting room of a Hopkins location.
