Absolutely. In the WFH vs Office debate people seem to forget that time-abusing employees always exsisted. I've had coworkers at past jobs who sat next to me and nobody on the team coukd come up with anything they did for a year beside

This was my experience with litecoin. I bought some back in the day when it was < $1 from my minimum wage job and sold it all when it "skyrocketed" to somewhere above $1. In the end I made a few thousand dollars and thought pre

Lol. Maybe I've misunderstood this idiom my entire life. I've always taken the lemon to be a sort of neutral player since it isn't always trivial to make something better out of a neutral (ie to see the opportunity) and is ev

I've had a handful of lemons thrown at me during my life. One of the most impactful ones as far as I can tell is that through a weird chain of coincidences I ended up first in line to purchase a foreclosed home. From what I understood,

That's exactly the scheme for for defense contractors, actually. They'll happily send technicians to an austere environment to do maintenance for an extra fee. This has been going on for years, but it is just getting worse.

Life is nuanced. I also own a 4WD truck that I spin up on the weekend to haul stuff (small farm truck). I get the impression though that everyone thinks the electrification of mechanical equipment will stop climate change and they give no t

I don't know... I watched my grandpa hand shovel heavy wet snow until the year he died. If we really care about polution, we'd just buck up and use a hand shovel.

Commenter subjectsigma understands this. In a former life I had jobs that required a polygraph, and I was not in a cult, nor does the interview process select for uniformed idiots. Both of you are reacting to commentary that the author bare

Honestly, aside from the handling mechanics the directly relate to the hiw the vehicle moves (steering, stopping, etc) the "user experience" to working with vehicle peripherals seems to be steadily getting worse every year.

A few years ago I ran a gambit with my wife's lightroom subscription. We kept cancelling and getting confirmations that we had cancelled but they kept charging our card. Eventually I had to get screenshots of a chat conversation betwee

I'm always curious to understand how so many people didn't know phones and social media would be bad. I remember having "prohoetic" discussions about all this in 2008 with a bunch of privates in the Army. How people ever

> Sugar is addictive. Do we ban sugar, or regulate its consumption? No! I I can't believe you chose sugar as an example. As a healthy lifestyle minority I would love to see some regation on cane sugar and syrups. One idea would be t

Your knee-jerk reaction is perhaps emphasizing OP's point. OP obviously is referring to the spirit of being more in tune with our natural roots and not prescribing "Get a dog, visit a man-made park" as a strict prescription a

Yeah, this is a thing. My wife is Finnish and our first was born in Rovaniemi in early winter. Wasn't terribly cold but we had her on the parvike bundled in a stroller and she slept great.

Do you not get fever dreams? Even if I have a slight fever (say 100) my dreams are uniquely different, so I always know when I have a fever at night. Hard to explain "fever dreams" if you don't get them...

Another point to consider with parent comment is also that newer homes are built are often built with monoculture trees that are younger (as you point out). This wood isn't nearly as dense and won't last as long. A lot of the stic

This is a big part that is overlooked. Our cities in the US are hostile towards anyone who doesn't have a car, honestly. Kids suffer quite a bit, and although I think they _would_ deal with it in earlier years, they don't now when
