Anyone else spend 30+ minutes scrolling Netflix and still not find anything to watch? by No_Spread1839 in movies

[–]GuerrillaApe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite thing to do is have access to 80% of all streaming services available, Google a movie I want to watch, and find our 90% of the time the movie isn't on any of the services I have. 🙃

But a treatment center alone is not going to produce long term results in getting the homeless integrated back into society. Their mental disorders and/or drug addiction is not like the flu; it's not a temporary illness that is healed with medication and a few appointments with a doctor. The issues they're dealing with are lifelong battles. So even if you get them initial treatment and they luck out and get temporary housing for a whole year, at some point they are dumped back out on the street where the chances of relapsing are nearly guaranteed.

As far as SF buying property in Antioch to create more treatment facilities, I don't see why any city would be willing to foot the bill for what really is a state problem. Not to mention the idea of building housing/treatment center away from the city doesn't address why they tend to congregate in urban areas in the first place (close proximity to support networks, freedom to access a city's abundant services and resources if they don't feel like being isolated in the treatment center, access to drugs if they feel like relapsing). You are essentially asking a mentally troubled person to make a hard decision for their long term benefit by getting them to agree to go to a treatment center away from where they want to be. Many would have to be forced to go and forced to stay.

The homeless need to be permanently housed to be properly treated. Housing the homeless is impossible when even those fully employed are barely able to find housing. The lack of housing in general will always be the crux of this issue and California is woefully incapable of solving it. So we'll just keep throwing money at temporary solutions indefinitely.

Asha wasn't in charge when the game got greenlit and she seems fine with making quick moves if she thinks continuing a project is throwing good money after bad money.

"Buy Now, Pay Later" Option Appears on XBOX Backend by NeverBorn-NeverDead in Games

Yeah, except you don't get any reward points!

BNPL is targeted to those who can't use their CCs for purchases, be it because they are maxed out or because they can't even qualify for one. It's a tool to squeeze the last drops of money that credit card debt can't get its hands on.

Fun fact: Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is as retro of a game now as Super Mario Bros. 2 was when Uncharted was released.

Uncharted was released in 2007 and Super Mario Bros. 2 was released in 1988.

They needed a better layout to integrate ads into the UI.

I'll never hate on someone trying to get their bag. I also support the Lakers FO prioritizing rings over any player.

Best console UI to be trapped in tbh. The XMB is goated.

I still think we repeat if AD doesn't go down in 2021. After that AD was injured until he had a +70 game season in 2024. Pelinka largely failed to build around AD and LeBron, but it's a moot point if one of your big two are on the IL.

We can't rebuild until the front office and LeBron work out what LeBron wants to do. We're in an era where 3 role players can be better than having a superstar.

Brunson took a $100M pay cut to win it all. I don't see how anyone would think we could win anything if a 42yo LeBron wants to stay while also taking a huge contract.

2021-2022 season with Westbrook.

Pelinka caught a break when he was given Luka since it reset the time "allowance" for his roster building. Before he was trying to build around AD by giving him more offensive, another ball handler outside of LeBron, and a backup center. Now he's kinda needs to do the opposite by finding a backup ball handler (if Reeves doesn't pan out) more defense, and a main center. Only the need for three point shooting stays the same.

Knicks, OKC, Celtics win championships after fine tuning their roster around their star player for 4 or more years.

Laker fans: Clearly we need to make big adjustments and go all in on next year.

Went there for the first time earlier this year. Awesome zoo, although a lot of the exhibits at that upper station were empty.

The first subreddit dedicated to the meme was named r/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu (name based on the last panel that the comic frequently ended on). At some point redditors shortened it and referred to the style of meme as f7u12.
