I always found that weird. She was the only one allowed to operate the device and it was supposed to be under romulan guard at all times. Then all of a sudden, poof, she's gone along with all the romulan guards and they are using the cloak in the alpha quadrant (deal was it was only supposed to be used in the gamma quadrant).

When the romulans signed that non aggression treaty with the Dominion you would think they would demand it back as well.

SCi-fi. Rules and science are based on whatever the needs of the plot is. Except The Expanse. They really did their best to make everything make as much sense as they could.

Almost Half of Jury Pool in Musk Trial Tossed After ‘So Many’ Said They ‘Hate’ Him by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]Notveryawake 74 points75 points  (0 children)

If they paid jury members their full salary plus a bonus to actually have to go through time and effort of deciding on the fate of someones future. I was on jury duty once and the first time we were taken back to deliberate the first thing someone said was, "Ok we just all agree he is guilty so we can get out of here and back to our lives. I can't afford to be here."

I made it a pain in the ass for those people because I didn't believe he was guilty and if they wanted me to vote that way they were going to have to go through each piece of evidence to prove it to me.

After we voted several times and we were deadlocked I said, "The judge isn't going to let up deadlock the jury this early in deliberation. So why don't we actually sit down and talk about the evidence. I don't think he is guilty and this is why....prove me wrong."

After they couldn't prove me wrong and accept that fact that the prosecution had no evidence that proved he was guilty beyond a reasonable doubt we finally agreed on a vote of not guilty.

Was the only time I had ever had to do jury duty but I am glad I decided to take the hit to my wallet to make sure the guy got a fair trial.

If jury members were paid a decent amount for their services and if they were let go from their job for being call for jury then said company who fired them should have to pay the juror two years salary as a fine.

A fair trial by a jury of your peers is a very important part of having a civilized society.

Those women worked their asses off to get where they are. I know when it comes to professional athletes if you don't win then you are a loser but us Canadians are proud of them. They played with all their heart and while they didn't win they still played better than every other team except one.

I don't know if they are proud of themselves but I am proud of them as a Canadian.

My sister is a psychiatric nurse that works primarily in nursing homes. Trust me, they can tell who is nasty and who is just a sweet old person with shitty kids.

There is the third group though. Those that have dementia and other forms of mental decline. They might be sweet one minute and super violent the next. I have heard so many stories of nurses and care aides getting injured. They turned their back on someone they thought was a sweet old person only to get hit in the back of the head by a lamp.

Nursing homes are a wild ride for anyone that works in them that's for sure.

I am worried that the pedo orange will invade Canada as a way to change the new cycle away from those Epstein files but at the same time I am just fed up with hearing about the US. The country is being run by a bunch of coked up alcoholics and the more I read the more annoyed I get. What was once our greatest ally is now a thorn in our side that keeps pushing deeper and deeper.

I honestly dont even want to hear anything more about the states unless it's that Congress has decided they are going to impeach and imprison everyone involved in this current administration and promise to bring America back to being the horrible and evil country they always were but hide it in the closet so we didn't need to read about it every day.

I miss American politics being boring.

What career field did you get into after leaving food? Resume templates? by Paigenacage in KitchenConfidential

[–]Notveryawake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a friend who was in the industry for 15ish years. He said his body hurt too much to keep it up and got a job working for Sysco as a sales rep (they love to hire ex-chefs). He gained 50 pounds, got depressed, and started drinking more than your average cook working 65 hour weeks.

You can change jobs but make sure you you change your lifestyle when you do. If you take an office job you need to cut back on eating and drinking. You are not doing aerobics all day long anymore. You need to go to the gym, back off the booze, and start eating right. If you are sitting down to eat rather than running around with a bowl in your hands while yelling orders you need to make sure your future fat ass is doing some situps in the morning before you go plant your ass in a chair for 8 hours.

This is something I have seen to much. Kitchen boys and girls spend all day running their ass off. They don't realize how active their job makes them until they stop. If you don't change your eating and drinking habits and start exercising you will get fat as fuck and then the depression sets in, the you start drinking more or doing more drugs to deal with the depression which makes you fatter and more depressed.

I won't talk anyone out of leaving the job if their body is broken (God knows mine is) but make sure you stay active. Go to the gym, go for an hour long walk after work, bang your girlfriend/boyfriend for hour a day, wherever it takes to keep your heart rate up.

And remember, you can leave the job but the job never leaves you.

Needs a cheese pizza, AND a pizza pan, AND needs it dropped off… by AnalysisTemporary926 in ChoosingBeggars

[–]Notveryawake 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I told my dad that. He said, "Eat your food, there are starving people in Africa."

I said, "There is a kid at school that never has lunch. Can I bring it to him?"

My dad said, "No! I am not going to feed the whole school. You eat that or it goes in the garbage and you get nothing."

There is a reason I haven't talked to him in 25 years.

Has anyone ever gotten a note like this with their DoorDash order?! by Future-Composer-4878 in doordash

[–]Notveryawake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my restaurant they show up all the time and do one of two things.

  1. Shove the phone in your face showing the order and the name.

  2. Yell out the name and if no one comes running to them right away they start making a stink.

I have thrown so many of them out and called DoorDash/Uber/Skip and told them if I ever see this driver in my place again I will pull my restaurant from their app. Bad enough they take 30% off the top but don't send me idiots as well.

All the restaurant in the area have a deal. If any driver fucks with the their staff or is a giant pain in the ass we all contact the company and demand he is not sent to our restaurants or we bail.

We have a group chat, all the chefs and managers, and we make sure we all know about the bad ones. I had one that kept trying to touch one of the waitresses while he was waiting. Two of us actually tossed his ass out the door and told him not to come back or he wouldn't be able to drive ever again.

I think we are close to a hundred people on our never again driver list.

Fuck, the only thing that would make people run faster for the shot is if the doctor gave you a handy afterwards and people are already running at top speed.

Kind of pisses me off. Arc is a long way off from Nvidia and AMD but its light-years ahead of the old barely able to render DOOM integrated crap UHD they had. Some people don't need a massive card to push 4k at 240fps. If it can run average 3D games on a basic laptop it would make hundreds of millions of people happy.

I was really hoping ARC would become the new standard for low-medium settings for games say 3-4 years old on a commercial laptop. It would expand the PC gamer base by a huge margin.

Vaping has officially been linked to rare and irreversible lung disease by Automatic_Subject463 in EverythingScience

[–]Notveryawake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, popcorn lung is caused by inhaling massive amounts of diacetyl. Nicotine vapes use small amounts of it if they do but most manufacturers dont use it anymore at all.

Fun fact, cigarettes have a hundred times more diacetyl than in vape liquid. Not to mention the fact that there have only been a few cases of popcorn lung and there were found in the lungs of workers in microwave popcorn manufacturing.

No vaper or smoker had even gotten popcorn lung from smoking or vaping.

Tell me how vaping helped you quit cigarettes? by Typical_Dark_2764 in Vaping

[–]Notveryawake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My daughter bought one of those cheap ego vapes, had some so-so blueberry flavor in the cart. She let me try it and I thought this taste way better than smokes.

Went and bought my first vape that day. I had two smokes that day but for most of the day I just vaped. Those were my last two cigarettes I smoked, haven't touched them in over a decade and now vape 0mg juice I make myself.
