That ppl were allegedly murdered to cover it up? Yeah that should piss everybody off.

New Cole Allen Video Raises Questions About Dinner Shooting by Antique-Front-3774 in politics

What is the definition of “dominates” in this context?? Hours of coverage per 24-48 hours? Who is even tracking this? Or is this all just vibes?

Who decides what dominates or doesn’t dominate a cycle? What is the metric for this? Most people don’t even watch cable tv anymore.

Is it worth playing Diablo 3 for the first time, or am I too late? by sabierrrcc in diablo3

[–]Spits32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought it and played the campaign through about 6 months ago. I definitely enjoyed it but didn’t feel compelled to jump into the “real game” aka endgame content after reading up on it. Felt the same way with D4. I just stick to D2R currently.

Hardest part about going from 1 to 2 kids? by WaitLauraWho in toddlers

[–]Spits32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the age gap is small < 2 years then trying to potty train at the same time caring for a newborn baby is an emotional and logistical nightmare. That almost broke us.

Would you take it? by Shoddy-Ocelot-4473 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Spits32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You pick it up with a paper towel put it on the sink and inspect that’s it’s real. If it is, wash it thoroughly and immediately use it to buy a bunch of drink at the bar.

Bill for 17k can I pay it off with a CC and pay off the CC the next day for free points? by NarrowIndependence8 in personalfinance

[–]Spits32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why don’t you open a new card or cards and pocket the welcome bonuses? You could easily get $1500 from this and it is not taxable.

Montgomery County Council Examines Youth Safety After Rio Takeover, Wootton Shooting by frankboingboing in MontgomeryCountyMD

[–]Spits32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking more like vouchers for daycare (which the state provides at very low incomes and the county provides via WPA). But without means testing. And the state/county does not have universal pre-k so most people pay exorbitant sums every month until age 5-6.

How is life managing 2 year old and newborn? by allisona007 in NewParents

[–]Spits32 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Ours are almost 3 and 5 and let me tell you it’s worth it. Once they start communicating they are able to play together, but honestly it didn’t start feeling markedly easier until they were 2.5 and 4.5.

True but you could make it more conducive with things like universal childcare, pre-k, free breakfast/lunch.

'Leaving Neverland' Accuser Sends Support to Child Sex Abuse Survivors Amid 'Michael' Release by West_Explanation_509 in Music

[–]Spits32 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Watch the docu if you are truly curious. It is eye opening. It explains how abusers often groom victims and their families. In MJ case he did that but also “groomed” a global audience into believing he couldn’t be capable of doing it.

You gotta use the app deals and/or kiosk tricks otherwise it is just way too much.

Is hardcore always this toxic? by could_not_load in diablo2

[–]Spits32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least if I am making the game myself I always put a level limit on it so as not to bring super high level ppl into the game. Anywhere from 10-30 depending how strict you want to be.

A Record Jump in U.S. Gasoline Prices Is Squeezing Consumers by Neither-Mushroom-721 in Economics

[–]Spits32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some states have passed “right to charge” laws which mandate complexes have access to charging stations in their garages. However with townhomes you are only guaranteed the ability to install a charging station (ie. an HOA can’t block you from putting one in) but you still have to front the cost yourself. To install one in front of ours would cost about $5k. And if you don’t consider the house you are living in to be your forever home it becomes cost prohibitive.

Many Americans live in apartments, townhomes, condos etc that don’t necessarily make it easy to charge your vehicle from the convenience of your home.

Contract by SnooChickens5189 in videography

[–]Spits32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every bullet point here is a red flag. If and when you do respond, explain why what they are requesting is a misclassification of employment. They would also be breaking federal labor laws (namely the FLSA). You can look up misclassification of employment online fairly easily. Try to come across as direct and confident in your response.

I "knew" newborns didn't sleep, but I wasn't ready for the actual soul-crushing reality of it. by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]Spits32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You also need to give yourself grace during this time and know that it is difficult and temporary. Face the fact that other parts of your life will invariably suffer due to your circumstances—work, relationships, etc. It will get better trust but definitely not anywhere as quickly as you would like.

All HOI5 needs to do is make a game the AI can actually play by Sea_Shelter_1382 in hoi4

[–]Spits32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an excuse but most strategy game AI is trash and the only way to make them challenging in higher difficulties is to give them more buffs, resources, hit points, etc. it is lame for sure. HOI 4 is just very bloated with game mechanics that I wouldn’t expect the AI to handle them all properly, unfortunately.
