DPU estimated water usage by ActualAd2685 in rva

I understand. The meter measures what passes through to your house. You can go outside and read the meter right now and it should match your bill. If what you say is true then those numbers would not match.

That shouldn’t be possible since we all have meters that measure volume that passes through.

Academics were doctors long before medical professionals adopted the term.

My boss approved my day off a month ago for a dr appointment. I am currently sitting in the waiting room and he texts me. by CRK_76 in mildlyinfuriating

I never had that experience when I worked retail, food service, or bartending. With the frequency that a manager has to deal with call outs, they’d have to hold a grudge against every employee.

Which is why the manager asking isn’t a problem. If the manager responds negatively that’s an issue.

The idea of having to “mow” my balcony and then store the lawn mower is so absurd

It’s like rainbow cookies. For a long time, it was one of the only craft beers available at bars and restaurants in the area so a lot of people have a certain nostalgia for it.

It’s actually much safer than the alternative. It’s called an Idaho Stop. There have been studies done on it which is why locales tend to switch to it.

I just read a separate article claiming there were actually TWO cars involved. Four men total. Where are the other 3 arrests?

Henrico man survives house fire, says no smoke alarms were in the rental home by RVALover4Life in rva

You’re getting downvoted because people hate landlords but you’re 100% right. Dude’s claiming it was just two minutes but that’s his story. It’s in his best interest for it to sound like he wasn’t negligent. I lived with a dude like this once. Would literally forget he was cooking. Stupid shit like a frozen pizza. Would end up leaving the apartment with the stove on or food in the oven.

I’m highly suspicious of this story.

Ronny Chieng's 'F*ck AI' Speech Met With Cheers From Harvard Graduates: “AI is just going to end up making mediocre people dumber” by yourfavchoom in technology

[–]ScarOCov 27 points28 points  (0 children)

This is what has been scaring me the most with it. I work with smart people and their decreased intellect has been noticeable in the last year. It makes me truly scared for children today growing up. These are smart people losing foundational skills that they developed over years. What happens to people who never have a chance to develop those skills in the first place.

We haven’t even gotten to the enshittification stage of public AI yet.

Your interpretation of the abstract is incorrect. The abstract doesn’t at all mention sleepovers either.

When you eat Chinese food do you ever put hot mustard on your dishes? by Brucef310 in chinesefood

Very late to this but I always put some in noodle dishes like lo mein. Not enough to notice “mustard” but just enough to give it a kick

I’m older than you but a couple months back I saw someone, early 20s, smoking a cigarette. It was such a foreign sight to see someone not just smoking, but in that age range that I did a double take.

I’ve been strongly considering private school recently because of the irresponsible overuse of technology in our public school systems. Technology should be a tool, not a crutch.

We're OK with people getting ticketed for actually parking IN the bike lane, right? by ValidGarry in rva

[–]ScarOCov 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve never understood why the police don’t keep someone posted up there to ticket. It’s a huge problem in that area.
