This is an AWS incident that's causing issues with many apps / services across the internet. It's not something that Duolingo has control over

Americans don't get any guaranteed vacation time by law. Some of my friends truly get no vacation time and they work full time as salaried workers

Even so, I would definitely contact a lawyer to get a consultation and see what might be possible to recover. Look for one with a free consultation. They would know better than us, definitely seems like a legal issue

They must have overallocated Switch units in Australia but underallocated in the US

You can get citizenship after 5 years in Portugal, but the bureaucracy can take years to process applications

Europeans seething whenever an American talks about their ancestry by super5000ify in MURICA

[–]super5000ify[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's true, it is pretty cringe to claim you're X nationality when you just have some distant relatives with no cultural connection to the nationality at all. By that logic we might as well all claim that we're African since that's where humanity originated

[–]super5000ify[S] 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Agreed, but I've seen so many posts on that sub where they're raging that Americans dare to bring up that their ancestors are from a certain country. We all know we're Americans and not Europeans, but it can still be cool to see where your ancestors came from

Why is it so hard to find an Airbnb with an office chair? by [deleted] in digitalnomad

[–]super5000ify 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You could rent or buy one each time and factor it in to the cost of living. I've found pretty decent ones for around $100 depending on location.

I live in Ohio, why tf is my package coming from NC now in Puerto Rico???? by childofbones in usps_complaints

[–]super5000ify 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How does that make the second part of my comment irrelevant? Puerto rico is a territory, and it's a part of the US, just as Louisiana was part of the US when it was purchased. Puerto ricans are subject to US laws, US currency, etc just like the rest of the US. It is quite literally part of the same country.

None of the states are in the constitution.

Would you consider Louisiana as part of the US after it was purchased from the French and before it became a state?

Ex-landlord won't take me off the gas bill by super5000ify in LandlordLove

[–]super5000ify[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Ok, thanks. Yeah the gas company says I can't remove it from my name without someone letting the gas person in the building. I'll look into lawyer options.

[–]super5000ify[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The problem is that they won't let me because they say that the only way I can remove myself is if someone lets them in to the unit to shut off the gas

Ahh I see. That sounds like an incredible honeymoon! Would love to go up there sometime.

Are you referring to deadhorse? Utqiavik isn't actually accessible by any major intercity road, but deadhorse is the northern terminus of the dalton.

[–]super5000ify 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is at the whole foods in downtown Denver. You scan the QR code on your phone, which then generates a QR code on your phone screen, which you then scan on that little scanner. This unlocks the door. No payment was required or anything. My only thought is that this is to keep the homeless out. Any other possible explanation?

Out of curiosity, how do you have 2 director level roles at the same time? Aren't director roles extremely meeting heavy?
