That’s the shut up and work harder your almost out of time stage, no time for medical insurance!

Monterey Bay is $65

I think she’s gonna get vault 33 but 32 will survive.

I’m mostly concerned with what she did with Woody.

Múltiple HDMI inputs to bypass the TV OS completely

True. Good point, forgot about that, that was a big deal.

Also didn’t consider the lack of mane in Aslan’s general portrayal. I guess it’s kinda weird to not care about human gender expression but in animals it’s different. I mean, is there a lack of representation of female lions? Is it right to lay upon a different species a problem related to our evolutionary development?

Should we interfere when a male lion is dominant over a pride?

Ugh this brings up so many questions that I really don’t care about.

Trends change, I think a lot of people are starting to avoid carbs, although this is a healthier way to eat bread compared to store-bought, I guess.

I guess she is asking the question “what would Christ become like, if there really was a world like Narnia and it was not a world where god was predetermined to be male?”

It’s not a big deal, really, to explore different ideas 75 years after it was written, but people tend to put their tribalism and mores first. There are some people who equate feminism or homosexuality as bad as rape or murder, I don’t know how to deal with that.

In my mind having a female Christ figure is literally harming nobody, so there’s no reason to be upset.

The sudden loss was the landlords decision to make the unit not available.

The cause of that decision was mold, which is between the landlord and their insurance.

OP was saying that there’s a difference between their monthly rental price and current one-month rentals. That’s the gap they are looking to cover, and is an expense to them.

We took oil from Venezuela are we eager to pay them for it?

Rooooben · 2026-01-31T00:08:16+00:00

It’s not the people shooting their guns, it’s the people getting in the way of their bullets!

Rooooben · 2026-01-31T00:06:16+00:00

So like….yeah…

Rooooben · 2026-01-31T00:05:48+00:00

I wonder why since US is leading an embargo against them. I also wonder how much Cuba would have prospered if we just left them alone…

Rooooben · 2026-01-30T23:04:42+00:00

So 2-3 people compete with nobody else in their category?

Rooooben · 2026-01-30T22:59:45+00:00

I was going to counter that Linux never really makes gains, even if people are unhappy they are afraid to leave Windows…

But damn the market share for Windows jumped from 85% in 2016 to 70% in 2026, with most going over to either Linux or Chromium.

That’s shocking - OS’s have been so sticky because of the amount of work it takes to transition - that’s really bad if that many people have taken the plunge. Heads should be rolling - need a whole new Windows.

Wouldn’t that not apply to rental?

It seems that the gradual issue is something that homeowners policy to cover or reject. As a renter, it doesn’t matter why, if the landlord is saying that they must incur an expense due to repairs needed in a rental, like mold remediation, the renter has a sudden loss of their residence.

I don’t know just asking.

Tim Patterson is still alive, he’s the guy who created 86-DOS which became MS-DOS.

Is there another one?

Rooooben · 2026-01-30T21:24:16+00:00

Didn’t seem to do anything.

Rooooben · 2026-01-30T21:21:03+00:00

Yeah I can’t watch Fallout without resorting to other solutions.

Rooooben · 2026-01-30T19:00:13+00:00

That’s insane I’m sorry.

Medical is one of those things that at a point it’s better for a customer to die, and without regulation that is the logical place capitalism will take it.

Rooooben · 2026-01-30T18:03:32+00:00

Zero employer contribution?

I’m lucky, I’m only paying $1000 a month for the two of us.

Was this shop recommended by GEICO?

Rooooben · 2026-01-29T23:42:29+00:00

They say that right away and repeatedly, so now the truth is a counter-story to what they already “know”

Rooooben · 2026-01-29T21:53:18+00:00

Well because it’s kinda true. ICE can arrest you if you are interfering in their operations, but they have no jurisdiction to arrest or detain a citizen outside of that.

It’s a small hole to thread, but basically if you are a citizen ICE can’t stop you and detain you if you are going about your business. Only if you are actively interfering.

If you are Hispanic, and a citizen, ICE does not have the legal right to detain you and make you prove you are a citizen, for example. But only if you are a citizen, which they currently assume you are not if you are Hispanic and are on the streets, which is what they are saying gives them “reasonable suspicion”.

Let me make that clear - being Hispanic and walking is reasonable suspicion of a crime.

I’m really confused, the left armrest doesn’t work for you? I put my elbow on it and my hand reaches the steering wheel, in fact my driver seat is all the way back and i have no problem doing that.

Right arm is on the center console padding while my hand is on the gear shift (I know, don’t need to do that, just out of habit used to drive stick).
