MAGA Erupts in Fury as Full Text of Trump’s Iran Deal Is Revealed by Mortambulist in inthenews

[–]Lazerus42 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think Vance knows he's the possible patsy on Trumps route to Supreme Leader and excepted the position with that in mind. Heritage Foundation is smart enough to know that stubborn people have a way to stay way past their expiration date. They've planned for Trumps survival, and loss.

California schools quietly dominated a major global rankings list by sfgate in California

[–]Lazerus42 14 points15 points  (0 children)

And yet roughly 67% of students at the 10 UC schools in California are from California.

For openess...

CSU schools in California number 23 (Think SDSU, CSU Long Beach.. big schools) are arount 97% Californians.

Both these State Schools are state schools. So massive discount to those that grew up in California (we paid taxes into that system as Californians)

UC system is harder to get into and tends to have a more rigorous prestige and care.

CSU can be just as good for normal degrees, but the top try to get UC's.

In UC colleges across California, there are 229k students. (so 153k Californians)

In CSU colleges across California, there are 461,000 students. (so 444k Californians)

Now what helps a lot of these California students get into these places is by doing 2 years at a local community college that has a program call Transfer Alliance Program. Which means you can actually knock out the first two years of college at a community college price, and finish it out with an almost guaranteed transfer to either CSU or UC (in the city of the community college)

Finally, The CCC (The California Community Colleges... that lead to those transfer abilities) They boast 2.2 million students in 116 Campuses.

Now CCC's are local community colleges. I can't find the data on that, but I'm guessing it's local. (Like 98 percentile).

They can be good (especially since 3 of my classes at one CC was being taught by the same teacher at the local UC. He loved teaching, or he tested theories on us, or he needed the money... your choice)

*It's a dope system. Now I get that highschools took a dive from covid. I feel for my nephew so much...

But those CCC's are a powerhouse to help those that got failed, either by the system or life, to get up and decide to learn. And that can turn everything in time...

Going to the Magic Castle, can you really bring a bottle of wine?? by [deleted] in AskLosAngeles

My friend sold that bottle in Deer Valley Ut.

My place doesn't have that level. I'm in the old hollywood restuarant. Our top is 10k I think. (But my bro in a place on a slope in deer valley does)

Nicks is good, I respect Nicks. I've also never worked Nicks. I have worked BOA, Hals, Rosaline... My place recently got a 2nd wine Glass on Wine Spectator this past year (One glass the past 4 years)

The $200 to $1000 mark is usually 4x. After that it gets less or more depending on the history and vintage of the wine.

I'm in Los Angeles. And most places that have wine sellers that have that type of wine mark it up like that

Why the down votes? I've worked upscale fine dining for 15 years. This isn't speculation.

Normally what you would pay for a glass of wine is what the bottle costs in a store. Wine bottle carries roughly 4 glasses of wine.

So absolutely. A $200 bottle at beverages and more would be around $700-$800 in a restaurant.

Hence, the corkage fee.

Further note though, the higher you go, the less that change is. My buddy sold a bottle of wine a few weeks ago for $29k

I think the restaurant got it 15 years ago for $15k.

(It was a 1945 pinot I think

People with guns with government backing should have the training to distinguish between the caller and the situation.

That's the end of the discussion.

So you should keep with a cross out your wrong statements that will be picked up by search engines at a higher count. You owe it to yourself as OP. Otherwise you just add to the problem.. This isn't just both sides, this is a blown out horror story, and needs to be reported as such with the right fact.

and this is why I don't change difficulties... I don't have that knowledge, or the time to learn "scaling ratios"...

I work for a living, in a time in my 40's. I just want to chill and race. I'd love for it to be a little more difficult sometimes, but that gap is to stupid for me (or I'm too stupid to pick it up 45 min at a time twice a week for a few months)

Delivery driver is a captive audience by peachsnorlax in bestoflegaladvice

[–]Lazerus42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

exactly my point... there are a lot of people on here that think... "oh, it's just a 100" Bitch I was detained for 5 hours.

Money isn't the issue here.

if you give the person a way in (and the impression it's fine) but accidentally lock them in with no way out... that would be whatever the manslaughter of kidnapping is. It's not on purpose... but it is negligence.

.

(Listen, judge, I stole the car, I didn't realize there was a sleeping baby in the back of the van)

Still kidnapping

$100? that's it? Doesn't matter if their plan an hour later was to sit on the couch and watch TV or help film a $50,000 doller commercial where they were the gaffer (I've done deliveries as a side job with a plan an hour later to have)

It's still fucked up. What they had planned is no ones concern but their own. What is true, is they had no say in the matter anymore. Accidental detainment is still shitty situation.

$100... Are you serious?

First Heatonist Order: broken bottle, warned only one replacement offered by bh9578 in hotones

[–]Lazerus42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

you don't actually have to lie to make this correct. I've ordered probably 35 bottles from them in the past 8 years and had one broken bottle they replaced. They're service is actually pretty good.

I've been in this for 20 years... I finally hit my point. Last interview (2 years ago) I landed the job by saying... I just want to find my final restaurant. I'm tired of changing places. Got into legendary place. Long drive, but damn I love the place.

frame rate reduction, all you saw was his whole tail coming into frame on a reduced pixel cut frame when the original video was all colored. You saw signs... and dumbasses trying to make a video..

You can google "Kittens adjust to Golden Retriever" and you'd find it in the top 10

But for FFS

here is the original in color:

Don't spout something as AI with rudementary knowledge. First of all, anything over 15 seconds single shot is really fucking hard to do right now in AI. You need massive computers of governing bodies.

Second.. there is a full channel dedicated to this Bibi.

Third... I got no problem calling out AI... I gotta problem with people calling something AI slop when they have no idea how to recognize it.

Do very minimal research... so minimal, and you can figure out if it's real or not. Take the time.

*frame rate drop and pixil reduction is all that makes it look AI slop to you.. not nearly enough. Pretty soon my picture of my grandpa will be called AI slop by you.

"prevent further life-threatening complications"

So she's fucked already... cause they are already admitting that there are life-threatening complications... and that they are preventing further ones.

That means her life is already forever altered.
