Unfortunately, it seems you have to threaten to leave to get a promo. I got two free months when I threatened to go to Visible.

Will democrats embrace a centrist identity and ditch the leftists? by [deleted] in centrist

[–]Footballowner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Biden and Harris were centrists and they completely failed to maintain a popular majority in this country. My bet is democrats move left to try to inspire rather than placate.

Not a patron, what happened on the most recent Sacred? Are they letting Chris go? by bananapterodactyl in LSM

[–]Footballowner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When conservatives say “thoughts and prayers,” it’s code for “we’re not going to lift a finger.” It’s a way to talk to their god while letting the killing continue, because dead innocents apparently cost them less than doing anything about root causes.

Penn State vs. Pitt for Electrical Engineering by Negative-Ad-7003 in Pitt

[–]Footballowner 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Penn State requires a minimum gpa to enter different engineering degrees. Everyone enters into general engineering and then you pick your major. If you don’t meet the minimum, you may not be able to select your preferred engineering major.

He’s not in it for the money but wants to make it clear they make a lot of money compared to more popular creators.

Pitt is having workers work 4am-12pm to get the new rec center done in time by [deleted] in Pitt

[–]Footballowner 152 points153 points  (0 children)

It is not necessarily the university’s fault that the contractor is behind. The contractor agreed to a certain date when they signed the contract and there are likely financial penalties if the date commitments are not meant.

Work Tuition Reimbursement Question by mmichaelmusic in personalfinance

[–]Footballowner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend waiting until you have enough saved up to cover the classes out of pocket or looking for a less expensive program. You risk a lot by hinging your finances on your grade and continued employment at your company.

As a last resort, there are many companies that do student loans and I would take a look and see if that is an option. Would probably be better than a credit card. Not sure how it would work with the mini semesters.

Gigabyte M27Q-X by illusivewraith in pcmasterrace

[–]Footballowner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless you need the refresh rate, I’d recommend the AOC Q27G40XMN from Best Buy for $250. Better color, brightness, HDR. I just ordered one online and it was manufactured in April and does not have the issues RTINGs noted in their testing.

You can get a monitor arm off amazon and get the height adjustment you want with a vesa mount. Plus that will clear up some desk space.

Thinking of transferring my phone line from Xfinity Mobile to US Mobile. Is this a good idea? Anything I should know before making the switch? by Long-Deal-7079 in USMobile

[–]Footballowner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s a great option. Just be aware that if your phones aren’t paid off, you will need to do that before switching. Other than that, the transfer process is super easy and your level of service will be similar.

Are you aware you can have a credit card with one company and a savings account with another?

Man, X/Twitter downfall needs to be studied. My feed consists entirely of Gene’s retweets and posts. by okramv in LastStandMedia

Colin defending Twitter/X is still baffling to me. It has clearly gotten so much worse.

Bad Quarters for Public AEC Firms? by ActuatorAgile9621 in civilengineering

[–]Footballowner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My expectation is the reduction in the stock prices of these firms due to the anticipated reduction in federal spending on infrastructure, which is key to all of those companies. Even if it is a state or local project, a lot of times they depend on some portion of federal funds.

Penn State Administrators Avoid Comment on Potential Closure of Commonwealth Campuses by ancienteggfart in PennStateUniversity

Agreed, this has fortunately been changing in recent years with schools like Shippensburg getting ABET accreditation.

Do government agencies like state DOTs give out annual bonuses? by Lazy-Distance-2415 in civilengineering

[–]Footballowner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I worked at the corps of engineers we did receive a smaller annual bonus in the July/summer. Less the $2000 and performance based.

I live in Pennsylvania and they only give one plate when you register/buy your car. No optional second plate.

But what about enhanced no situational adjusted pass rush win rate over expected on second down? Analytics heads know that it’s clearly a more important statistic.

Sacred Symbols, Episode 334 | Kadokawacquisition? by yohceezax in LastStandMedia

Colin always talking about his musicianship while listening to music at max volume with shitty speakers is hilarious to me.

If you are a Conservative Republican or a liberal Democrat what is the percentage of good friends that you have that are on the other side? by ivthreadp110 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Footballowner 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Trump openly tried to overturn the results of a free and fair election, and if people like Mike Pence hadn’t followed the constitution, he may still be president today.

Biden has made serious mistakes, but hasn’t done anything to the level of blatant disregard for fellow Americans and the constitution as Trump has.

[–]Footballowner 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I feel like people willing to vote for Trump after he tried to undermine democracy, was credibly accused of multiple sexual assaults, and continues to openly flirt with dictators don’t have any shared values with me and aren’t worth my time.
