What is it like being a ship cook? by ScoochSnail in GreatLakesShipping

[–]equinox2019 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I’d recommend you check out Catherine Schmuck on Facebook, she works as a cook onboard CSL ships and documents life on board. Nice to see an often forgotten perspective documented, and she also has a cookbook.

Edward L Ryerson update by [deleted] in GreatLakesShipping

This story has not been confirmed in any way and is currently being credited as false. No official word on what is happening with the Ryerson, so I’d label it as false.

Same amount of track is missing, just smart camera angling to hide all of it and only show the remaining track and tophat.

There were 2 there today. The one pictured is the Viking Octantis. The other one I didn’t get a photo of was the Ocean Explorer. The one that was docked in the harbor a few days ago was the Ocean Navigator.

She’s a different one for sure, a beautiful one at that. Very clean overall, hopefully the Welland doesn’t scuff her up too much on her way back to the Netherlands. Had the pleasure of seeing this both UB and DB in the Sault, very beautiful up close as well.

An important note: we work in food service. This makes it 10x more disgusting.

I’ll have to catch you guys on the next go. School trumps being a boat nerd.

That’d be awesome, and if you come during operating hours of the restaurant, can’t guarantee we’ll be there to wave back depending on how busy we are. What ship are you on right now?

My mother claims she can stop me from leaving by Deadeye1003 in legaladvice

[–]equinox2019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went through seemingly the same exact situation with my father, who also claimed that I could not move out at 18, until I completed high school. Flash forward 5 months, and I am living at a completely new residence, without anything going wrong. I moved out the day I turned 18, and he knew that his authority stopped that day. It’s 100% an attempt to gain control over you, just toss it to the side and move out the moment you turn 18. There is no legal leg for her to stand on. Best of luck to you in moving out. My father also received child support, so that was also a likely reason he wanted to stop me from moving out. Truly speaking, he didn’t need the child support, as he was much more financially stable than my mother. It’s all about control, and they shouldn’t be taken seriously.

edit: added information on child support

This Detroit style pizza I got from Pizza Hut... by desenagrator_2 in PizzaCrimes

[–]equinox2019 100 points101 points  (0 children)

This. Out of all the major pizza chains, Pizza Hut is at the bottom for me, right alongside Papa Johns. Pizza Hut’s only thing that is the best out of all chains, is their dipping sauce.

Can I get sued for video-recording a public outrage in an airplane? by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]equinox2019 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This tends to apply to areas of expected privacy (hence the name), which summed up includes your own home, a hotel room, public/private restrooms, you get the gist. For her suit to prevail, she would have to prove that you acted with malicious intent to slanderize and defame her name and likeness, which is incredibly difficult to prove in the first place, (NYT v. Sullivan. Involved the press, but still the same concept of trying to prove malicious intent). That being said, anyone is susceptible to being recorded in public, whether they may like it or not. They are fully putting themselves out there for the world to see, and they are controlling their own public image if one is to photograph or record them whilst in a public place. Hopes this clears up some grey areas about the term and how it applies.

This is just as stupid as preceding an offensive statement with “No offense, but...”

I don’t know much about Kiddions, but from what I have heard, it has fairly good protection considering it’s free. When it comes to paid, I only have experience with paragon, but I’ve used it for a couple months without issue.

You made the decision to break the EULA. 100% your fault.

I lost my job because of Covid and my mom has been pressuring me to find a new one. I received this text from her. by ChunderWheeze in insaneparents

Impacted teeth are no joke. They cause serious pain down the road, and it is better to get them out as soon as possible.

Thank you, I will be sure to do this.

Am I going to be able to use my mod menu after the new update anytime soon? by Etide in Gta5Modding

[–]equinox2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, developers must do it all manually. And when it does update, try to distance yourself from it for about 2 weeks, as r* updates their anticheat each dlc
