I go to a budget gym that is used by a lot of high schoolers and college kids in the evenings. The needle boxes in the bathrooms are full. It's insane.

Love How to sell drug online (fast), surprised to see it listed here tho 'cause I've never heard anyone talk about it. Considering it got 4 seasons, it must be popular tho. And yeah, Bridgerton, Wednesday, Emily in Paris, and 3 Bo

Same with the food and housing examples. Save meal prep time given back, commuting time given back (I am assuming corporate housing is relatively close to the office compared to usual, self selected housing).

My counter argument to this is that the later in the process your face is shown, the fewer people have the option to discriminate and therefore the fewer arbitrary filters you have to pass through. And ideally the people who are discriminat

Also inclined to agree with the innovation angle on TikTok. Was already growing and I think rather than Instagram, their in-flow was from Snapchat where Gen z/alpha were already trained on exploring filters and tools and TikTok expande

My understanding is that metricizing like this is a tangible way for managers to defend "underperforming" team members to upper management. Your manager can always say you're a valuable member of the team and that will cert

I always had the impression that this is how they were trained. Like it's part of the homeland security/border agent training to act as hostile as possible. I've never had a positive interaction with an US border patrol.

Not disagreeing with anything you're saying, just adding as a note, that as of a few years ago, Toyota's entire line-up of cars are hybrid vehicles.

On the older busses in the city I live in, the level of vibrations actually make me sooo motion sick, I have gotten off the bus and immediately evacuated my insides.

The introduction of mass contraceptives in DRC and its neighbors is happening. There's a lot of social and economic drivers that make it hard however.

I agree strongly on trackball being tiring on the thumb. In combination with smartphone use, it's far too much strain on this one joint. As for straight wrists, I find that naturally happens for me as well, but my impression is that it

I suppose if I'm making my own, I can make it longer, but my issue with these as they have come with desks I own is they become absolutely useless as soon as I have a mouse bc there's not enough space.

Having done Ottawa-Toronto many times, Via currently charges about 60-70$ for advanced economy tickets. Same day tickets are typically in the 120-150$ range, but I have seen over 200$. So definitely cheaper than flying currently. Hard for m

Because the 80% overly expensive hotel is precisely what you're paying for. Quality of education is a bare minimum requirement. The rest is the people you'll meet. Be that your neighbors in the expensive hotel or the professors yo

I did the third laundry basket for a bit. I think it's missing what's peak about the chair which is that I can still sorta see what's in the pile. I'm trying to find a coat hook esque system.

I'm not convinced of the "safety". SUVs (and larger cars in general) have higher risk of roll over. Not to mention you're a bigger target on the road; how often are accidents head-on collisions compared to a corner clip

As a Canadian who has worked in the US for a bit, something I always find strange is the American aversion to Zelle. E-transfers are the equivalent here, and everyone uses it and as it's rolled out over the years, I've definitel

I've been a Strava user from before the fitness trackers were big and using a watch to track location instead of my phone is pretty big for me. The additional biometric data (namely heart rate and blood oxygen levels) are a plus. I
