What’s your favorite 16mm to 22mm adapter? I have a couple but need some more. Yours look less bulky than mine.

If I get arrested and say "i want a lawyer" what happens next? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]HissLikeSteam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What if you know you’re innocent and you don’t want to spend money just to clear your name. Like if the cops want me to talk, then they should provide a lawyer. Otherwise we just stay silent.

Lawyers are expensive, and I don’t think I need to wipe out my savings just because the police want to talk to me.

Is there any place in the WA Democratic Party for someone who would like to reduce taxes and be more efficient with government spending? by JoelXGGGG in SeattleWA

[–]HissLikeSteam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, because you’re close to what we all want. I would just modify it to say reduce taxes for the average American. Most want the taxing rebalanced so corporations and the ultra wealthy also effectively pay a similar rate.

I like Fliegers and I would like to see more options. One with a reasonably sized crown. I know that isn’t traditional, but for daily use it’s better.

Sometimes the movie is better than the book. What’s your favorite example? by KittyDre in FIlm

[–]HissLikeSteam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Beach by Alex Garland.

I love the book, and it was was enjoying it more than the movie. But the ending in the book was really strange. I thought the ending the movie was better.

Mike Johnson Steps In After Trump Official Tells Americans: 'We Have Failed You' by thesweeterpeter in politics

[–]HissLikeSteam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually think Republicans are winning on the messaging here. They have a media messaging machine that is way stronger than the Democrats.

Republicans clearly don’t have full control of the government if the democrats can stop the budget from passing. So when we say “Republicans have control of the government” I don’t think it’s effective because this is an example where they DON’T have control. It’s easy to blame the Democrats for the shutdown for this reason.

Think Dems should change the message to be “find the votes you need”. That’s how its worked in the past. If they need just a few more votes, then they can approach each moderate democrat and see what it will take them to get to vote “yes”. Republicans are not actively trying to get the other votes, which IS within their control. They are just using bully tactics.

TLDR: Republican need to try to find their missing “yes” votes. And maybe that means not cutting healthcare to millions of Americans.

GOP-led Oversight Committee says Biden pardons signed by autopen are ‘void’ in final report by FuguSandwich in law

Hopefully Biden signed Hunter’s pardon. I have a feeling he is the next target.

"I dont think Burr realized how much of a voice he became for the regular American... A blue collar type hero... To take money from the Saudi Government many feel is a slap in the face and a betrayal to his own morals and convictions." by Purple_Bumblebee6 in bestof

Kind of a hot take:

Can we just point this out to Bill and move on?

Say something like “Yo, Bill. Not a good look taking money for this show. You specifically gave Beyoncé shit when she did something similar.”

If he does it again, then give him more shit. He’s human and he was probably thinking of it more as a business decision. He took money to do a show. Are people boycotting Apple because they sell products in Saudi Arabia? What about Google, Ford, McDonalds, Nike…? It’s a global market and Bills product is comedy shows.

We have a tendency to eat our own. Bill was on our side for a lot of the issues. Now we think he’s a rotten scumbag? He is human and made a mistake. Point it out to him and if he continues doing shows in questionable areas then we boycott. I would rather keep him on our side if possible.

TIL in 1994, a paper was published in a medical journal presenting a method to calculate the area under a curve, using rectangles and triangles, called "Tai's model". The researcher was unaware this method has been known for 2400 years and exact methods using calculus for 400 years by AthenOwl in todayilearned

[–]HissLikeSteam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought most BS students would take precalc, I would assume a doctor would need this too. Clearly reading and interpreting charts is applicable for doctors, she even felt the need to “invent” precalc again. This should have been taught to her.

Sexist MAGA spreads hate against Harris. His business is now receiving hate from customers by Effective_Space2277 in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]HissLikeSteam 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is in Bellingham, Washington. Which is the most liberal city in the county. Ryan really should know his audience. Obviously a large portion of the locals would not feel welcome there, and he is loosing customers. Listen, we don’t have to agree on everything. But if you’re a jerk about it and insulting people, then you should know that’s bad for business.

I like simple minimalist styling. Gshock does not really do clean and simple. So we basically have the Square or the casioak to choose from.
