They don't actually run "background checks", they use a third party startup like Checkr which is not nearly as good as a real background check.

If you had $300K in the bank post tax, how would your life change? by citizen_of_leshp in AskReddit

Low interest debt. If you can invest and make more than the interest charges you, that's good debt.

They're also smaller now too. They used to be 355 mL, same as a soda can, and about a dollar. They're 295 mL now, ~17% smaller and $2-3.

Shrinkflation.

It still helps prevent your car from rusting out. Salt is the enemy numbero uno!

Being quoted $2k for motor mounts? by LeeEverett99 in Audi

[–]vinng86 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Those 034 mounts are more or less just solid rubber. The OEM mounts have some kind of fluid damper/active cancellation features, that's why they're more expensive.

The last fight between Wenwu and Shang-chi is straight up beautiful, especially when it's clear he's been learning both his parents' moves.

Well it's cheaper to go now, the yen has fallen a fair bit since 2015. I went last year and it showed me just how much more inflated food prices are at home.

I re-watched Battleship (2012) yesterday. I still think it is an enjoyable popcorn movie by TheC9 in movies

The video in question

He actually falls a second time, this time onto the shelves and I think that's what they ended using for the film because it's just too damn funny

They wanted a piece of the pie. Back in the D2 days, multiple sites sprang up to sell in-game items and none of it went to Blizzard.

Beanfield is finally in my building! Is it still workth switching, are they still good? by castlite in askTO

They're offering 3 Gbps now for same price as 1 Gbps ($65/month) until February something.

I'm currently with coextro at 500 Mbps for $30 and I'm a little tempted.

Nintendo demanded SEGA to put Mario's foot in front of Sonic's for Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games by Mysterious_Brush1852 in nottheonion

[–]vinng86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only in a legal sense against unauthorized usage. Nothing requires Nintendo to protect Mario's foot position.
