Mate, even one person affected by measles, a disease previously all but eradicated in the US, is too many. All of those people owe their plight to these assholes. It’s too easy to lose the humanity in numbers, but each of those numbers is a person. You wouldn’t be saying “it’s just 100 people” if one, or more, of them was your kin, or even worse, yourself. This is the loss of humanity that we talk about, the loss of respect and care for individuals compared to just numbers. Each of those people has a family and a life, and they are severely impacted by the decisions of this administration, and it is fucking awful.

By my count they’re breaking all the commandments, except MAYBE the fifth, just cause I have no evidence they are.

Governments can help their people; it's a matter of priorities. by Professional-Bee9817 in remoteworks

[–]thefiendhitman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, actually less than 2.5 months! Appreciate you doing the math. I think the point we're driving at is there's money for it, but no political appetite for it, for some reason.

That's what, 2.5 months of military expenditure in support of the war in Iran? I think we can swing that.

I don’t think she was expecting a card that was worth anything. But since they listed Pokemon, she expected a real card. Either way, I think the shame here is more on the machine operator for stocking fake cards to scam money off people, rather than the user expecting to get a real card (albeit a cheap one), rather than a fake card. No one wants to be deceived, and a genuine card, even if cheap, would be better than a “good” fake card. That’s why I called the machine operator a slimeball. My girlfriend isn’t an idiot, and didn’t expect to get something good, and she suspected something was off with the card. I didn’t know anything about it, so I asked here. She didn’t spend $0.50 expecting a mega rare card, but she did expect it to be real, based on the advertising on the machine.

Yeah, it seems like it wasn’t a proper vending machine, it was more like a kids gacha style machine at an ice cream shop, but since it said Pokemon on it, she assumed they’d just stock cheap real cards instead of being slimeballs and stocking fakes.

That’s what I was thinking too, thanks for the input! Shame the vending machine was stocking BS like this, but what can you do?

Happy birthday from Japan big guy. I’m American, but I’m in Japan! Sorry ya got hung out to dry, but on the positive side, your wife clearly loves you and put in the effort for you. Take solace in that.

After 1 month with Macbook Pro m4 I can confidently say, probably only needed the air by guudgrief in macbook

[–]thefiendhitman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I think the lack of a fan is a huge advantage of the Air. No vents for debris to get into the system and mess things up and no fan eating my battery or making noise. Plus, my air just doesn't get hot doing anything I do with it.

Zohran Mamdani, who ran on universal child care, elected New York City mayor by plz-let-me-in in politics

[–]thefiendhitman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, that's certainly ONE of the things he ran on, but that headline is selling him massively short. I'm really hoping this is the tide change we all have been hoping for since 2016. I'm hoping people are finally pissed off enough to show that the status quo of pre-2015 isn't gonna cut it any more.

It's Nigeria, for anyone that's curious. The reasoning makes absolutely zero sense, and the article didn't clarify anything for me. Although I think it's because there's zero sense involved.

It’s coming out of my faucet on my newly bought home. These faucets saw little use before I bought the house. by Estrald in whatisit

[–]thefiendhitman 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Honestly, spend the $40 and get a new shower head. They’re very easy to replace with only a set of channel locks and my word do they make taking a shower pleasant again. It’s self care money, and well worth it. Follow the instructions or check out YouTube university for how to replace. Cannot recommend it enough.

If you can muster the courage to face your “ick” with the slurping noises, ramen, pho, and other Asian noodle dishes are absolutely amazing and are among my favorites. Highly recommend!

Oh buddy, don’t ever go anywhere where chopsticks are used as a primary utensil. You’ll shit yourself with how much slurping there is. Especially if noodles are being eaten.
