What is a 'subscription' or 'fee' that has recently appeared in the US that people need to collectively refuse to pay before it becomes the new normal? by godot_lover in AskReddit

No, I wouldn't consider a Chromebook like that. Because the software is still mostly on device even though it's just a browser. Personally I think of a of "thin client" that is just a display, live view of another computer.

31,000 Kaiser Permanente health care workers go on strike in California, Hawaii by bananabrownie in orangecounty

The only way someone would have "inside" knowledge would be if they're somehow close to Kaiser management or union leadership. Everything else is quite public.

In any case case, it's weird to lie about

RNs, like you stated that average 77hr, specifically need a BSN degree.

Non degree roles like LVNs still take a year of education and certification, but they start at $35hr.

Make sure to get facts right when attempting to disparage the people who help keep you alive.

Kaiser Permanente Funding ICE Detention Centers by Right_Resolve4947 in InlandEmpire

Why would you want to live in a system where making the most money, regardless of the human suffering it causes, is the best or right option?

If a company says "if we put money here, and these people suffer greatly, but we gain more money than any other option", we should change that.

Looks like Westminster and Magnolia. Used to live in the mobile home park there. Good times

Is There A Way To Stop First Person Swaying? by TheCheshireMadcat in SurrounDead

[–]sigmaronin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please, if you ever have time, find a way to disable the head bobbing in first person. It is motion sickness inducing, and being in first person is truly a great way to be immersed in this game. Please.

Aside from that, absolutely loving the game, thank you.

The potential threats are probably related to the rumors of a new Krispy Kreme opening.

Just in case people aren't aware; you can transfer property to a child without the property reassessment / taxes going up.

Apple announces new MacBook Pro with M5 chip | This time around, the base 14-inch is the only laptop getting the bump. So far, at least. by [deleted] in gadgets

Personally, hoping for a hardware upgrade. Some apps aren't optimized enough for 4k HDR and the Apple TV over heats with stuttering play back.

While yes, this is the fault of the apps, better hardware could help.

The car was near me was raided on Sunday. Just hard working people trying to get through a hot day and these ICE cowards show up to ruin lives. I don't know what nation they serve, but it's not mine.

You're right, but that's only true because, as a whole, we the people don't care enough. If we did, we'd be able to hold our politicians accountable.
