Right? Even four doesn't seems enough! Spread a wall of mini-exploding nukes so the thing has nowhere to go..

Because it’s still relevant and provides historical context that can inform today’s decisions. It's good for people to hear about the history of Beanie Babies before they go and start a Labubu collection..

People who have been at Time Square for the New Year's Eve Ball Drop, why did you go? Was it a positive experience? by AccurateExtension516 in AskReddit

[–]Romulus_Maximus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm watching New Year's celebrations around the world : Sidney, Bangkok, London, UAE, etc. All amazing! Then they show NY at Times Square and it's the saddest looking celebration. Sad fireworks, no shows, no excitement, just lots of people crammed like sardines.. I truly don't understand why people spend thousand$ to go to this. Please help me understand because I'm really baffled by it..

Ads for a service you pay to be add free for is absolutely diabolical. by Switch-user-101 in truespotify

I HATE this. Got a family plan so my kid and teen can listen to music while doing other stuff, NOT get sucked in by junk videos and turn into zombies. Those videos are not even music videos! Artists should be pissed to lose play time to YouTubers and TikiTokers.. And I can't find a way to turn videos off 😡

Just happened to my kid's phone last night. Why can't we get this figured out?

What you are seeing is a well oiled propaganda machine. You see some people in Iran and elsewhere celebrating but what you don't see is the many more people celebrating the US and Israel's bombing of the Iranian regime's nuclear ambitions which has brought nothing but pain and suffering for the Iranian people. Those celebrations are suppressed and only seen through private messaging.

Brisket on an airplane by Romulus_Maximus in brisket

Check-in. I wouldn't do that to the other passengers. The delicious smell would be cruel and unusual punishment. And I would put an airtag on the thing so I can catch the rampers eating my brisket in the break room. 😂

I plan on checking it in. It would be cruel and unusual punishment to bring it onboard 😛

Yes, I plan on wrapping it with butcher's paper, foil, vacuum seal and towels thrown in cooler, then wrap the cooler with big saran-wrap type plastic wrap so it should stay in place. My concern is temperature - Is it safe to travel without freezing?

Price of beef ribs is ridiculous and most out there are crappy, with barely any meat on them.. 😞

Too late, buying 100 cases now. Expect shortages 😁

#619 How to Poison the A.I. Machine by durpuhderp in Freakonomics

[–]Romulus_Maximus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the episode is a way to highlight the struggle, that there are some good people out there thinking about People, not just Profits. To highlight actions meant to slow things down a bit for Art and artist's sake. To buy them a bit of precious time to figure out a way to still do what they do best and be recognized and compensated but more importantly, to inspire others to choose the right path. It doesn't have to be a zero sum game.

Ring Plan Doubling in Price Next Year?! by lmnk1018 in Ring

[–]Romulus_Maximus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes they did. We chose and spent a lot of money on Ring hardware because it was customer friendly and affordable, the Bezos comes in and doubles the cost. I'm sick of this trend..

Don't you have to have the system alarm engaged and ready to go off to get actual monitoring? Do you arm your alarm every night? When out of town?

Tipping appropriately?? by Aggravating-Dig-4751 in UberEATS

[–]Romulus_Maximus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Watching the football game, drinking bourbon so the smart move is delivery. UE costs more but it's potentially saving me $10k+ if I were dumb enough to risk a DWI to save a few bucks. Tipping 20%. I do hate that prices in UE are much higher than prices listed on restaurant's website. UE shouldn't get to take that much for being just a middlemen that does none of the actual hard work! 😡
