I wasn’t even given an option for sound, the guy told me the headphones were just for communicating. I just tanked 30 minutes in the tube with nothing but the sound of vibrations.

if you turn off end to end encryption

isn’t that the main reason to use it though, privacy?

Ah, okay. That makes sense.

Trader Joes is only located in the lower 48 states.

Aldi in North America is owned by a different parent company than Trader Joes. Both parent companies are named Aldi. The context of the original question was essentially asking “Aren’t Aldi (US) and Trader Joes owned by the same company?” to which Mr Worldly Wiseman responded with a correct no. No further specification needed because you can simply look to the broader context the question was asked in.

To be fair, human skin is good for blocking alpha radiation, that’s an extremely low bar.

Every 100 years but not every 400 years! Isn’t it fun?

Small correction, it’s every fourth year except every hundreth year except every 400th year. I’m assuming the misconception comes from the last time it was a 100th also being a 1000th (2000) but the next time a leap year will end in 00 is 2400

I got laid off about five and a half years ago, at the start of Covid. The meeting was with my manager and his boss (who I was also friendly with). I got a meeting invite and asked if we could push it back an hour so I could drive my wife to work, they said sure. I told my wife on the drive that I was getting laid off. Sure enough, I was. They paid me five weeks severance and gave me resources to file for unemployment. It was due to Covid causing a huge drop in money coming in, which was understandable. Honestly, I didn’t like my job, I had already hired a company to rewrite my resumé. So it worked out. At least my boss and his boss had the spine to do it personally. I’ll always give them credit for that.

There is a difference between talking about sex and gender and something being sexual. If a shopkeeper mentions his husband, I can extrapolate that he’s at least bi, but that doesn’t mean the game is sexual.

They probably bought it from someone who previously had rented it out.

Either the fees didn’t jump straight to $930 from $110 or the person didn’t do due diligence in reviewing the condo’s budget before they bought.

Just use Landrop like a normal person

You really should read down to the bottom of that article, where it says that businesses are allowed to set the terms of what forms of payment they’ll accept as long as they do so before the deal is made or the sale is done. Your own source contradicts what you said.

Don’t quit your day job to start giving people legal advice.

Bees literally do not use hexagons, they make roughly round shapes and the force of the surrounding cells compresses them into hexagons. This is called self-organization and it’s observable in bubbles as well.

When you use apple or android pay, it generates a temporary card number etc and uses that, which means if that payment terminal gets compromised, your card number etc isn’t exposed. Your bank could probably do something similar without Google or Apple as the middleman, but until they do, mobile pay will remain a killer app.

I’ve certainly never met a perscriptivist who I held in higher regard than Mark Twain.

God if this isn’t the truth.

Yeah man, I’m sure you’ll be able to convince the average person that your process is way easier than just launching an app.
