I'd think in this cause they should've already known it was an emergency? "Largest fire in history? Well they haven't called us yet, everything must be fine, keep throttling guys."
go back to demonizing a small portion of your political opponents as sub-human creatures who are evil to the core
Really everyone needs to do this. Left, right, center, up, down, imaginary (?), etc. There's several antifa idiots (or people using it as an excuse/disguise) that go around destroying things whenever there is a chance. Then there's a ton that are just peacefully protesting. Then when there was that retarded tiki torch rally, one guy drove through the crowd and killed someone... And suddenly everyone said the entire tiki battalion there was there for the purpose of running people over with cars as their sole purpose.
Speaking of flying "back in the day" just reminds me of how you could take your kids to the cockpit. There's some pic of me when I was 4 years old meeting the pilots and getting the wings stickers from them in the cockpit.
Once you stop using sugar you just lose the desire for it. it's not punishment. And that's the magic of low carbs. It's one of the few "diets" that doesn't lead to yo-yo. At least not for a subset fo people. It's sustainable.
It isn't for every one.
This just reminds me of reading some "article" by someone several years ago about why low carb was bad and not good for weight loss. They literally did low carb for 3-4 weeks.... then got off it and admitted to eating an entire cake... THEN complained about gaining weight after that day. They said something about how it was so great that they lost 2-3lbs while doing the diet then how they gained 4lbs the day after they quit it and ate *A CAKE*.
Glad to see they didn't just say "low carb = death do the opposite." I worried at first it was going to be an article saying they found low carb people dying younger so therefor eat a ton of carbs all the time.
Instead it looks like they are actually saying low carb only shaved 2ish years off while high carb was actually the "true villain."
When I asked what they would be looking for, Cynthia replied, "WMDs -- that sort of thing."
Whoops! How clumsy of me. I seem to have left my nuclear warhead in the MIDDLE of my hotel room! Won't you please overlook it this one time, pretty please?
They'd just beg for Patreon and do more ads for Dollarshave club, Harry's, lootbox, etc etc etc instead. (my favorite though is when they literally will make a video that is just a commercial of them opening a lootbox, then giving their code for it.... while also having that video monetized)
the next town over, but that just happens to be 400 miles away
get the [nonperishable food] from town every day
I had to re-read the article at first, thinking it was saying they were 400 miles out of town, and went 400 miles for food every day. And finally realized "Oh, THEIR TOWN is 400 miles away from the next town." Something about this writer's article made me feel like these were just random rovers living in holes I guess. I especially like that the writer complains about his eyes never adjusting to the darkness while at the same time talking about using assumably full brightness on his Macbook.
I understand recurring fees in many cases, but the price seems to often suck for what you get. I'd be a lot more willing to pay them if it made more sense. For example, I really liked the Might Text app. They offer a free version and a limited one. Free version only allows you to send something like 100 or 150 texts a month I believe? If you want to send more, you have to pay a subscription fee. I'd be fine with this if it was a low fee... But instead it's something like $10/mo? No thank you. I'd rather lose the convenience than pay $10/mo every month forever just to send a few more texts through my computer. There's other free options so the niceness of the app doesn't overcome that silly cost.
I've got a Garmin that I use for tracking running, swimming, and various workouts. The notifications are useful for when my phone is across the room or I can't grab my phone out at work. Also the fact that it can alarm by a vibration is useful for stuff like when I'm going camping or don't want to wake others with my alarm. Mine is just a "fitness watch" though, and I can't imagine wanting to pay more for less battery life just to do something like.... look at facebook or respond to text messages with "OK:)".
I can definitely see why people would enjoy them... but it's definitely not a "for everyone" product.
It just reminds me of some article on Maddox's site years ago that said something like: "Remember, true diversity is brought about by people that look different."
I'm sure the first women given positions as a result of this bill will feel very proud when they are hired for their gender and nothing else. (not disputing that in some cases they hay have been ignored for the board due to being women)
Naming it Parker suddenly makes me think of Spider-Man "PARKER!!! BRING ME MORE PHOTOS OF SPIDERMAN!!!" I guess he's really changing roles... now it's time for pictures of the sun!
Reminds me of something in my current company. A friend of mine had her supervisor berated because he dared to "hire 2 white men in a row, don't let it happen again. The next one can not be a white male." Maybe not the exact wording, but the gist of it was basically "Don't hire 2 white men in a row ever again."
The calendar can remind you of your appointments, but the interface is so clunky that it is useless. You can use it as a web browser, but why would you want to stand in the kitchen to do that? One feature that is actually related to the refrigerator is an internal camera that can display the contents of the fridge without opening the door... but it takes so long to traverse the menus, that it is easier to just open the door and look the old fashioned way.
With a decent interface and voice I imagine it'd be nice at least to say.... look at the weather and/or calendar when filling up your water? But otherwise it seems insane to have a smart fridge. Maybe with voice you could ask your fridge to show the contents while you're messing with the coffee maker a few feet away....? I always forget "Smart Fridges" exist - probably because I can't see any reason for why.
It'd be great if they'd just make everything available for download. In my stupid naivety, when they first announced Virtual Console, I had dreams of buying the Wii and immediately downloading old favorites like Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, etc on day one.
I understand in some cases it's weird stuff about old publishers and copyright holders and etc that don't exist, so they can't get permission... but that doesn't change the fact that they drip fed stuff for years and then did the same (with even less) on the next console. I feel like if you can't figure out who owns something 20-30 years old and no one is claiming it... You should be able to offer it somehow, even if at a lower price so as to only pay for the effort it took to make it available, etc. I can see how sales people would hate that idea though. Still sucks.
Would the drivers get min wage for the time they spend driving? Or are they supposed to get paid as long as they are in ready state? Even if they decline ride requests from low rated people?

On a scale of 0 to 1, Facebook has rated themselves at 100. Please. Trust the Zuck.
B-b-b-but it might hurt their feelings if they fail a test!
I also like the part where they complain about not being given safety training for driving.
That or they'll have died in forest fires.
Can't cancel the auto payment if you're dead!

No more of that these days.

I heard windows is about to go subscription, sure glad linux is still free.
That was just the version for businesses, not for regular individual consumers........yet?

Wasn't that pretty much how Buzzfeed got it's start? Dumb quizzes, top 10s, and tons and tons of content straight up copied from other sites?
Supposedly their news is decent. But I refuse to go to their site in general.

Stein has been teaching the CNN to detect people from the back or the side, for instance, up to about 10 feet away.
Wow, the news can finally find people that aren't looking directly at them from up close!
