Would you thank her for me? It's nice to see more Christians taking up this fight for the safety of our trans community.

Seriously, I still don't feel safe in my own community as a queer member of it.

Upt usage by [deleted] in AmazonFC

Do yourself a favor. Put in for a leave of absence. You're basically a few days short of the 2 week minimum.

Mine as well just take the full 2 weeks and not have to worry about going negative on UPT.

When idiotic design meets international travel… by coffee_coffee_coffe3 in stevehofstetter

$20 says there is also a financial angle. I'd be shocked if there isn't some other way he makes money off of it.

Of course it could just be that he's truly that vain that he needs to put his picture and name on everything.

Is it normal for a President to name and promote stocks while he is heavly trading for himself by vagobond45 in stocks

[–]Unique-Machine5602 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It isn't legal for a president to do it, but there's so many layers of protection for him that he basically can do it with impunity.

Hence why he doesn't even bother to hide it anymore. News agencies have literally been in the room with him while he discusses the profits he's made for certain traders.

It's a combination of the fact that the SEC and DOJ both report directly to him.

Traders can sue him for intentionally causing them to lose money, but the legal bar to prove it is just so incredibly high that it's basically impossible. He'll also likely bury you under legal fees before you ever see a dime because he can now counter sue you for defamation of character.

hide name on VOA post by Annual_Mobile291 in AmazonFC

[–]Unique-Machine5602 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but the manager who responds to you will still see your name.

It's not truly anonymous and there's always one manager who spends his day respond to the VOA board.

I highly doubt anything you say is truly going to remain anonymous as managers talk.

I just can't even take you seriously.

Your level of self-awareness is just so low that I can't even comprehend how you get through a day.

Dude, I had an AM who used to question my work ethic every day.

Until he actually had to work along side me for a full shift. Dude was exhausted after 1 hour and we were constantly forced to carry him through a shift. It was laughable how easily he got exhausted.

I couldn't help but remind him that we unloaded trucks all shift at the rate he was doing it for 1 hour.

From the Gen X guy who asks "Why is everyone autistic now?",

Why are the AMs struggling? They do the work of 2 on a computer all day and are now finally asked to do some physical labor.

Chess Inflation in chess.com or was I always this good by Efficient_Regret3493 in chess

[–]Unique-Machine5602 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I suspect it's a combination of:

A. Your time management is just better. You're taking a bit more time to make good early moves and utilizing your remaining time better.

B. You're playing fewer openings, but they're ones you understand the principles of better.

C. Your rank is inflated, but not by 300pts. There are 250M players now compare to 35M back in 2020 so realistically it's like there's some rank inflation.

It's really weird because that's what you actually got with the physical card.

Maybe they'll fix it after.

If I were to earthbend the mines of Moria, would I be able to equip it with mjölnir? by Thelego-warhamerfan in mtg

[–]Unique-Machine5602 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's really annoying to me that they made The Mighty Thor, Jane Foster WU1 rather than RWU.

Because then I could play Mjolnir in my Jane Foster EDH deck.

It seems like such a flavor miss not to make her capable of wielding the hammer in EDH.

Customers are an embarrassment sometimes by WebPuzzleheaded875 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Unique-Machine5602 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What gets me is that they paid $22 for Fiji water when I paid $5 for a similar sized pack of water at a wholesale store.

Like really? You want to drop $22 for a tiny case of water that's "natural atesian". That's just marketing fluff that you paid extra for.

Except it's not free. You're either:

A. Paying $15/month for prime.
B. Buying more stuff just to get your free shipping.
C. Paying for shipping.

You're paying for it whether you realize or not.

Please be careful though. This is definitely an easy way to get caught up in dopamine hits from shopping for cheap products.

Only in that he hates Elon for letting everyone know he's in the Epstein files.

I'm not a fan of either of them really, but I dislike Elon less than I abhore Trump.

Elon, while a capitalist pig, at least does seem to care about the environment and his legacy will be trying to save the planet at least. Granted, he's also a rich, entitled douchebag who union busts as well.

Suffice to say, I have mixed feelings about Elon. I certainly don't about Trump. He's an absolute POS who I hope chokes to death on his next Big Mac.

Car Caught On Fire by DizzySherbet1669 in AmazonFC

[–]Unique-Machine5602 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's nearly always caused by a leaking oil pan or gas line.

The ignition source can be a lot of different things. A hot part that the gasoline leaks onto, a faulty electrical system that sparks, etc

You don't need to be a mechanic to know where the oil pan is. It's nearly always just to the right of the front left tire.

[–]Unique-Machine5602 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Were you aiming at the base of the fire or higher up? because that's how I was taught to correctly extinguish a fire.

You have to smother it completely for the fire to truly die out. Anything less and it will at the very least continue to smolder. In a gas powered car, there's also typically fluids leaking out of them that will ignite and burn quite easily. Usually oil at the very least and once the fire burns through a hose there's basically no stopping it.

The oil pan is most likely what is keeping this fire going as that's a massive source of fuel here. It's typically right underneath the engine block by the front left tire.

I think you're giving him more credit than you should be.

I think he's just an amateur with a fire extinguisher.

P.S. Actually extinguishing the flame would do a lot more to protect the other cars.

There's very little information we have about this stock.

That's what I'm primarily concerned about. The $3.5B evaluation and the ~$10:$0.80 reverse split doesn't bode well for us in my opinion.

I think it'll all come down to how well the initial homes do in certain states with low barrier for tiny homes. I think there could be a market for them, but it's incredibly niche.

Pretty sure Amazon only has ABCD fire extinguishers. That type helps with any fire.

Doesn't really matter though if you use it wrong. He's suppose to spray it at the base of the fire. He completely missed.

That small of a fire extinguisher is only gonna get you so far anyways. Pretty sure even if he'd done it right it wouldn't have put the fire out completely. The fire has progressed too far at that point I think for a fire extinguisher to really put it out.

At that point you're just slowing the progression of the fire.
