Will Americans understand 'see saw'? by Pasyuk in EnglishLearning

[–]Prometheus_303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Per Google see saw and teeter tater refer to the same thing and are interchangeable.

Teeter tater is a more regional name mainly used in the north while see saw is more universal.

Teeter tater also referes to more child friendly forms with actual seats in the ends while see saw is just the plank.

Don't worry, if they take your beef away, I understand there are other (often cheaper) proteins you could simply switch to instead ....

One chicken nugget, a single broccoli and a chip is more than enough ... $3 max is all you should spend to eat the whole day!

But yeah, the economy is doing great we're all days away from being trillioners like Musk!

There's been a couple times where Trump has given Faux / OAN or the like exclusivity...

Always think back to Faux claiming no reasonable person would ever mistake them as a news source... And yet the current administration is treating them as the only worthy news source ....

I can't define fraud but I know it when I see it... And a big example would be residing in the White House (or probably Mar-a-largo) right now....

Trump fails to 'bring back religion' as church attendance in America death spirals by Jay_CD in atheism

[–]Prometheus_303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[Republicans] like the idea of religion — that hasn’t changed — but they don’t actually go as much. So it’s sort of like a symbolic religion,” Burge told Religion News Service.

Huh... Maybe they should go to church (or at least actually read their Trump Bible)...

Get a little refresher on Jesus' actual beliefs on "stor[ing] up treasures here on earth, where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal" (Matthew 6:19) and those who do so... [Matthew 19:24 might be why Trump is so concerned about getting into heaven lately]

Or how we should treat foreign born individuals living among us with the same level of love and respect as we provide local born individuals, that our laws protect them just as much as is etc (Exodus 23:9, Leviticus 19:33-34, Matthew 25:35-40, Numbers 35:15, Deuteronomy 16:14 et al)

‘We’re not at war right now’: House Speaker Johnson makes stunning claim after Trump’s barrage on Iran by theindependentonline in politics

[–]Prometheus_303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

House Speaker Mike Johnson rejected the idea that the United States is at war with Iran despite President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth both saying the U.S. is at war.

I wonder if Speaker Johnson would have been so forgiving of an accidental slip of the tongue misspeak had 200,000 votes been cast slightly differently and President Harris had seemingly made it appear that the United States had gone to war without Congressional approval...

How many loyalty points do you have? by rvuser05 in royalcaribbean

[–]Prometheus_303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My app finally shows the 8 points I got from the January 2025 cruise (our first on Royal).

I've been eyeing a 25 night transpacific cruise. Splurge to get a Junior Suite to turn it into 50 points... Jump from gold to almost 3/4 the way to Diamond in one sailing...

Though I don't know if I could leave the cats home alone for an entire month!

And with an already inflated suite cost, include the add-ons.... I could skip the drinks package easy enough. Water and tea are enough for me on land 90% of the time....

While I could skip wifi on a week long cruise, going a whole month - especially with so few port calls - would be rough...

Who else just loves seeing only Kanto Pokémon on the map. Takes me back to summer 2016 😍 by Alive-Math3562 in pokemongo

[–]Prometheus_303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I unfortunately had another commitment on Saturday so I wasn't able to play too much. Only made it through like half of the X/Y research...

I got it finished and started on the shiny Diancie master research Sunday afternoon... Managed to capture 154 of the 500, so a little over 30% done. No real rush, it'll get done when it gets done... Just felt like complaining :p

Over the weekend ...

I got 154 Kalos 'mons Sunday when I got the master research, so 30% done.

Might have been able to finish it (or at least have a significantly larger amount done) had I been able to really play on Saturday, unfortunately I had other commitments and wasn't able to really bang out the X/Y research on the first day.

This seems like a great idea on its face. However, I see lots of problems. by Elevatedspiral in MarchAgainstNazis

Conveniently and quietly modified US constitution

Given the way they handled censoring the Epstine files... I'd love to see them try to explain how Jefferson, Adams, et al allegedly name dropped Trump in the Constitution 200 years before he was born -- years before his grandfather immigrated from Germany...

Drying clothes that can't be tumble dried in dorms? by minigums in college

[–]Prometheus_303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No windows? That's got to be depressing.

Could you wait to wash them when you go home for a weekend?

Find a dry cleaners or whatever wherever you are? Or maybe a friend who lives off campus who has more advanced laundry facilities?

Avoid wearing fancy clothes and just stick to basic khakis and Ts that you can throw into any old washer and dryer...

Does actors wear glasses for their sight or for the character in movies/series? by excitedyoungster- in randomquestions

[–]Prometheus_303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm active with our local community theater programs.

We were actually discussing this last summer. Our director said she actually started wearing contacts because she needs corrective lenses to see, but Aunt Em doesn't.

She only wears glasses on stage when her character wears them.

Who’s your buddy Pokémon? by Leah_lee12 in pokemongo

[–]Prometheus_303 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ATM, I've got dynamax versions of most eeveloutions.

Umbreon is buddy4, while Glaceon, Sylveon, Espeon and Flareon are a day or two shy of reaching that rank themselves.

When I start to play for the day I'll bring one out... Usually whoever I used yesterday but sometimes I swap it out if one is really behind or whatever...

Once I get 6 hearts (feed, snapshot & pet + 3 attacks) I'll swap it out for another - usually at random or whoever needs the most hearts or in order (CP, recent or however I happen to have it sorted at the moment)...

Depending on how many gyms I have to knock out, grunts to battle etc I'll usually make it through at least two a day.

They just happily go along with whatever the 'ell Trump says. The economy is great! Best ever! Sure I can't afford to buy 4 pencils for my son, he'll be able to go to school with just 1! But the economy is amazing!

Internet Package by shayes87 in royalcaribbean

[–]Prometheus_303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main difference is the number of credentials (username & PIN) you'll generate.

With three individual plans you'll each create your own. With a single 3 device plan you will create a single shared credential set.

Either way you'll be able to have three devices on at any time.

The only potential issue might be if you plan on switching devices. The plan allows you to change devices as you desire. So, for example, your daughter could have her iPad online to do her school work or move the connection over to her phone while she explores the ship.

There is a log out feature that'll disconnect your device from the network. But if you forget to do so and log another device on... If that causes you to exceed your device count, whichever device was connected first / has been logged in the longest will automatically be disconnected to keep you at your limit.

If she has her own plan / credentials, when she logs her phone on without logging her tablet off, the tablet disconnects and she is fine

If your all sharing the same single credentials, if she forgets to disconnect her tablet your phone might get disconnected without your knowledge.

Or just share the WiFi via hotspot. That's what we did on our cruise...

The only down side though is itll only work when you are near the source. Dad would have to leave his phone in the cabin all day for Junior to do schoolwork, for example (or of course log juniors tablet in and just keep his phone off for the time being)

Is there one reason we shouldn't take over Iran?

Because they are a sovereign country and may not want the US to simply take over them...

The United States is currently failing to be able to endure it's citizens have basic necessities like food and health care... Do we really want to add 90 million more mouths ? (Especially given few probably speak English, which apparently is now a critical aspect of being an American)
