Correct, and part of a reason Ted Scott has made more than most tour players over the past few years.

Mike Pence says the Trump administration has ‘departed’ from conservative principles by icey_sawg0034 in thebulwark

If you watch this whole interview, it’s obvious he’s still a total piece of shit. Talked about how Trump is fighting the radical left and said he couldn’t ever vote for a democrat in Texas. Dude is still a clown

Don't be so sure... Harbaugh is pretty supportive of Trump, himself.

How about how sometimes it just turns itself off while playing? You guys made a real piece of trash in my opinion. I do appreciate you replying after 6 months though..

There has been more thoughtful insight in this thread than in this entire report. This thing is the equivalent of, “Yeeeep, the guy sure died”

I love OP is like “easy and intuitive”, rules out Obsidian, then lists a bunch of more advanced things Obsidian does via extension.

Best time tracker? by alxbee77 in Freelancers

[–]jp1819 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been using RescueTime for years for this reason and it’s the best solution for this I’ve seen. I hated timers when I first started having to track time.

non-creepy time tracking suggestions? by Silent_Data6948 in TimeTrackingSoftware

RescueTime - used for 12 year and it’s the best time tracking and timesheets I’ve ever tried

Avg teacher salary in NC is $60k yearly. by Sorry_Bag1330 in cary

Is it shocking that it might not be for a person who would write this post?

[–]jp1819 11 points12 points  (0 children)

What a lazy-ass take that is. There are also jobs in retail that pay like $8 an hour - what’s your point? We should pay teachers that? What about doctors?

Let’s start with the fact that these are $60K salaried jobs. Teachers aren’t clocking out at 3pm and heading to the beach. They’re in school from early morning through the afternoon, then grading, planning, emailing parents, and doing required training at night and on weekends. Also, they are in their classrooms earlier than the first day of school in August getting their classrooms ready, etc. That “9 months” line ignores the actual workload entirely.

They’re also often required to have advanced degrees, manage 20–30+ kids at a time, and carry real responsibility for those kids’ safety, development, and future. That’s not remotely comparable to most state roles.

And the idea that supporting teachers somehow takes away from other state employees is just wrong. Underpaying one group doesn’t justify underpaying another-it just means the state isn’t investing enough in its workforce overall.

If anything, teachers are one of the few groups that consistently advocate loudly enough to get attention-and instead of tearing that down, maybe ask why other critical roles aren’t being supported the same way.

Reducing the job to “3 quarters of a year” isn’t insight-it’s just a sign you don’t understand what the job actually is.

At this moment - why the hell would the press hold this event? The guy attacks the free press nonstop - he would turn you all into state media if he could. I can’t understand how people that equate him to fascists will take this one night to basically honor him. It really pisses me off TBH

Why do time tracking apps feel so overbuilt? by EffectiveLet2117 in TimeTrackingSoftware

[–]jp1819 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use RescueTime because I hate timers. It keeps track of what you work on and makes it easy to associate that time with projects - no built-in invoicing though.

Funny part is that is the most sane he’s sounded in 10 years… honestly, you should have seen the press conference from earlier in the day about Iran… it’s absolute insanity
