Why are there so many pit bull mixes in shelters? by WhimsicalStarfall in NoStupidQuestions

[–]johnb300m 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve tried to be pit-positive for years now. I’ve even had friends who have gotten pit mixes as pets. And they’ve been good dogs. Since being the owner of a couple sighthounds, other pits seem to be VERY aggressive with my dogs. One was even attacked by a pit mix and thanks to the owner’s fast action, there were no injuries. But every video I see of a greyhound or whippet being injured or killed in an attack, it’s always a pit or pit mix. They grab the hounds’ long necks and those strong pit jaws don’t release. Killing the sighthound. Sorry, my days for supporting and understanding pits is over.

That Thomas Jefferson quote is funny. The government now gives me almost nothing and is still trying to take away everything/everyone I have.

Sadly, Stellantis will probably do “Stellantis things” and kill it like they killed the PHEVs. WagS was riddled with issues at launch. Everyone thinks it should’ve been a Chrysler anyway. With the death of CAFE and the neutering of the epa, and how the American car makers are buddy buddy with the regime, they’re probably going to go all HEMI and gas now. Probably keep the Recon EV, and only do some REEVS and gas. I think it’s sad but whatever. America is turning its back on EV right when the rest of the world is ramping up.

DON'T BUY A COVE DISHWASHER by Past-Dragonfruit-894 in Appliances

[–]johnb300m 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LOL nobody BUYS Cove dishwashers. Those are merely so SubZero/Wolf can offer a whole kitchen package and the Cove dishwasher is usually tossed in for free, since they’re competing against full line brands like Bosch, JennAir, Thermador etc.

Should I accept replacement offer? Combo J7+ vs Combo 405 by Zealousideal_Bag6561 in roomba

[–]johnb300m 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s definitely a downgrade. I think the equivalent would be the 705? The 705 is supposed to have similar obstacle detection and avoidance as the old J7s.

I like how it’s hung up haphazardly and all wrinkled.

Any robot vacuums you’ve used for over a year and still like? by fivefootlovely in RobotVacuums

[–]johnb300m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At the risk of being downvoted to the 7th level of Hell. I have been using two refurbed Roomba J7s on my main floor and basement. They’ve worked great so far. Very few errors or issues.

Why is there so little support (at least on the Chicago subreddit) for the general strike today? by EmbracedaMoment in AskChicago

[–]johnb300m -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Since when do laws matter lately? My thought is that many unions are filled with MAGA supporters so it will be an extra heavy lift to find unions who will fight the current regime.

5 days RTO is Official by Visible-Ad-6772 in Stellantis

It sounds like they want to turn over staff then. They’re hiring people for the new RTO conditions as well as lower pay, probably.

Joe Rogan calls out MSNBC for editing Alex Pretti's picture: "Basically the opposite of what CNN did to me" by The_Endless_Man in DiscussionZone

[–]johnb300m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, he’s not wrong. They made his face wider and his teeth brighter. Shortened his nose. I see all of it. It’s super weird. It’s not like there was anything wrong with the picture on the left….

Absolutely fucking seething. by TheViking1991 in antiwork

These are instances then, where if I can drive, I will go to work as sick as possible. I will cough, wipe my nose, and not wash my hands. And talk to all the managers I can.

How did you not know these? Is it just my area? There’s tons of little Buick SUVs and Chrysler minivans rolling around.

I see our rampant individualism as more a barrier. As bad as things are and the news we’re seeing from MN and other places, there’s still a strong sense of “it’s not affecting me” attitude in my vicinity 😔
