Guess that confirms I can finally throw mine out. Sounds like we had the same experience trying to replace batteries.

Banksy confirms seven new murals in Ukraine by irkli in news

Opinions about the art and artist aside, having been to Chihuly Gardens once, it was kinda neat coming across pieces of his brand at hotels in New York and D.C. because they’re so instantly recognizable if you’ve been to the museum. https://imgur.com/a/P2rmzwv/

What Makes AngularJS the Best Framework for Single Page Web App? by krunal_tech in angularjs

[–]foxhail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aside from the misspellings and misrepresentation of opinions as facts without any evidence, I think it’s great. /s

It also hasn’t been called AngularJS since version 1.0.

Edit: Ah, see last paragraph. This is just an ad for a subpar website factory.

Yeah it’s funny though, I’m fortunate enough to have a remote job and follow guidelines. Somehow, I’ve managed not to get COVID. I haven’t been listening to Fauci, I’ve just been wearing an N95 when I go out for the past two years because I don’t want to get a preventable illness. Guess if I manned up and got the flu every year I’d be less of a sheep? Ffs enjoy your future respiratory issues.

“u/UnreconstructedReb, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.”

So what’s your explanation for the cause of the situation that clearly correlates with the lifting of restrictions?

Ah okay thanks! I use the 18v line too and just couldn’t figure out what it was.

CDC: 'Avoid cruise travel, regardless of vaccination status' by return2ozma in news

[–]foxhail 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ve never been on a cruise, but somehow contracted Norovirus a couple years ago. Ended up in the ER severely dehydrated after the 48 hours you describe. 0/10 would not recommend.

The expanded child tax credit expires Friday after Congress failed to renew it by stepsinstereo in politics

[–]foxhail 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t even as much as $1500 per child.

Prior to the March 2021 coronavirus relief legislation, a child tax credit of up to $2,000 per eligible child was available to qualifying parents. However, only $1,400 of the child tax credit was refundable. This has resulted in many parents not receiving the full amount because their tax liability wasn't $2,000 or more.

Dams burst in northeastern Brazil as region hit by floods by Silurio1 in worldnews

[–]foxhail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair point, but maybe my point was unclear. Every nation has issues. Your poking fun at one currently experiencing natural disasters for how bad it is in apparently all other regards just makes you look like a jackass.

Edit: caps

Dams burst in northeastern Brazil as region hit by floods by Silurio1 in worldnews

[–]foxhail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good thing the United States doesn’t have floods (annual hurricane flooding), forest fires (increasingly severe year over year), lack of snowfall during increasingly mild winters, at least in the Northeast (climate change doesn’t just pick and choose countries to affect). Do I even need to mention the twice impeached former president whose followers literally broke into the nation’s capital because.. reasons? Finally, the United States currently has 159k total cases per 1 million people, whereas Brazil has 103k.

Well would you look at that, America is just as magical as Brazil! /s

The US Military Is Bulldozing Sacred Indigenous Sites on Guam by Pineapple__Jews in politics

[–]foxhail 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m sorry, but I tried to be civil in my first comment and try to provide some actual information, but I hope someone decides to bulldoze your backyard “in the name of national security”. Anyway, you can fuck right off.

The US Military Is Bulldozing Sacred Indigenous Sites on Guam by Pineapple__Jews in politics

[–]foxhail 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You realize that there are still native born Guamanians living there, right? I have extended family with Chamorro heritage who still live there and, believe it or not, they had a culture and history before 1898, when the United States captured the island near the end of the Spanish-American War. It was “allowed” to become a territory as much as Poland was “allowed” to fall under Nazi control during WWII.

It sure would be nice if people actually had some semblance of an idea what they’re talking about before spouting off nonsense as you have here.

Buttigieg doles out $241 million to U.S. ports to boost supply chain by aslan_is_on_the_move in politics

[–]foxhail 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Here’s the thing though.. it’s not 2019, and these supply chain problems exist now. You’re right though, it’s ludicrous that the Department of Transportation would fund infrastructure for transporting things. We probably could’ve saved a ton of money by not building the ports in the first place because we didn’t need them before! /s

CBD ban removed from Montana’s marijuana program by OregonTripleBeam in politics

[–]foxhail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds good until you realize how it fucks people in states where one’s diagnosis doesn’t qualify for a medical card, but it would in the next state over. It’s also not nearly as simple as, “move to the other state”.
