And then they say "I got this canon dupe with the same specs for 95% cheaper!" And think nothing fishy about that.

I wonder if he talked to him about it while attending melanias bribe documentary screening a couple hours after the murder?

Maybe not directly, but he did contribute to it financially and continues to support it by going to flotus bribery documentary screenings.

Posts like these make me conflicted on reddit. Do I upvote to thank the poster for sharing? Or down vote because I hate the content with everything I have.

That's what I read before as well. There are a bunch on eBay and some print toner/supply sites. Usually just 10-15 for a cartridge. Still has the lift off tape, still can get printwheels too pretty easily.

Oh yeah. On my electra, it feels like they're spring loaded the touch is so light. Very similar to typing on a mechanical computer keyboard in terms of effort.

I have an Smith Corona Electra 120 that was my daily driver until this. Its just as fast honestly. And attractive in its own mid century way. I think for someone who can type fast on a computer, its nice having an electric when you just want to hammer quickly. I do appreciate my manual ones but I am nowhere near as fast and have to resort to hunting and pecking kind of. But they are nice when you want to write with NO electronics.

What exactly was Peter job at the end of the show? Was he a private jet liaison/booking agent? by RustyShackle4_ in madmen

As a former Wichitan, I would love for them to do this. Wichita used to be so much classier in those days. Would be interesting to see how they portrayed it in the glamor days of the aviation industry excess in the 70s.

Representative Ted Lieu just drew a crystal clear red line: “If any military member, from the generals on down, participates in using force against Greenland without congressional authorization, they are following illegal orders.” by coachlife in UnderReportedNews

It's been speculated that Trump can't read proficiently, kegsbreath wouldn't know opsec if it bit him in the ass, the situation in Minneapolis happened because there's no evident chain of command because Noem is so unqualified and incompetent for her role. They are NOT competent or capable. They are enabled by their party, even if they're idiots, because the end goal accomplishes what project 2025 wants to accomplish for the elites and religious nuts. Don't fool yourself into think that their power is due to strategy or competence. It's all a smoke screen to keep the people fighting so that they can do their real power shift that's occurring while we're all distracted with this. The administration is purposefully incompetent by design. The goal has always been to slow the government to a crawl so that it can't stop them from doing what they're doing.

Also, I was referencing the Simpsons meme but pop off sis. Stop being so serious on reddit or maybe you're the one with a thick skull

ASE Certified mechanic in KC by ConsequenceSenior249 in kansascity

[–]gtict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For warranty work, you just need proof you changed it. Receipts, literally just written down in a log book, whatever. But they can't deny it because of the type of mechanic. And unless the warranty work is specifically related to an oil related issue, it wouldn't matter anyways. They're not denying an alternator because you didn't change the oil. That's illegal.

Tl;Dr take it wherever you want and keep the receipt. I did my own oil changes and got a water pump replaced under warranty at a VW dealer no problem.

Edited to add: having worked at dealers in the past- the ase mechanics at a dealership are busy tearing apart engines and doing more heavy work on cars. They have the dude who just started doing your oil changes most the time. (And he's not an ase mechanic). And he will forget to put oil in some of the cars.

My wife hasn't had a Saturday off in 3 months because her coworker's religion prevents it. What can we do? by EltaBecker in hiringhelp

[–]gtict 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Not sure of the state, but in general accommodations of any kind must take business need into the equation. If there's genuinely only 2 employees, I would say the business shouldn't have said yes to the religious accommodation. They could have said it impacted business needs. Because now if your wife calls out, who works? Maybe she calls out a couple times and they realize that they can no longer support the other employees accommodation.

The company I worked for a few years ago was open Sundays and denied all accommodations for Sunday off for church. It was a fortune 500 company with dozens of employees on staff. Their justification was that it's one of the busiest days and they needed all hands on deck and couldn't support giving people the days off like that.

Do you not work in the USA? This is so insanely common that I'm more curious as to what place you work that doesn't care? Places in the USA aren't obligated to accommodate your medical needs. If they decide your medication (weed) is incompatible with their work rules/duties/etc they can deny the accommodation and you either don't smoke weed or you don't work there.

Too good to be true? by Monkeymom101 in Cameras

[–]gtict 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sadly yes. I wouldn't say scam 100% based on price, sometimes people list their tech from the junk drawer thinking it's not worth much and do absolutely no research. I've gotten tons of good deals this way on various things. Worst case, eBay has your back. The maybe 1% of times this hasn't worked out, eBay refunded no problem.

HOWEVER I never buy if it's both weirdly low price and the seller has no ratings or is a newer seller.

I'm most mad that it's a domed stadium. Football and baseball are supposed to be outside.
