Oh yay… a low-speed rail from… Pueblo to Fort Collins.
That will literally never happen. As much as I’d love to use it the one time a year I need to make a trip like that, the ROI would be so far in the negative, even I’d vote against it… and I’m a train aficionado and a fan of government-funded rail.
My wife bought a new Pixel 8 recently from Google Fi. They sent a Pixel 6a for some reason. She attempted to work with their incompetent, powerless, disconnected and foreign support for a week to get something to happen, desperately reaching out every day for someone to just tell her what was happening. Then, she just purchased a new one because you can’t go longer than that without a phone.
Then it was 2 more weeks of them failing to issue a refund for the original wrong phone, trying to ship another phone that she no longer needed, and simultaneously trying to bill her a penalty for not yet activating the phone that was originally shipped.
All it would take is one person who had information, authority, and a modicum of understanding. Nope. That is not a thing that can be achieved through any level of escalation at Google anymore.
Nokia had the same problem recently during a recent issue. They have intentionally made it impossible to solve issues. This is what some companies want. Don’t buy from them.
"Prosecutors said Philip Sean Grillo, who is running for the seat previously held by George Santos, had videotaped himself during the 2021 attack on the Capitol.
Interesting. I’m curious why he brought 20+ year old video equipment with him. It seems like the article would address that oddity. It’s getting tough to find new old stock blank video tapes.
I’m not sure if lawyers think their words are magic sometimes, or if they’d just really like them to be magic.
I live in a state that prohibits most non-competes from employers, and any effort to try to get employees to sign overly restrictive agreements can actually result in a fine and penalty. My company sent me a legal agreement saying that by signing the doc and continuing to be employed, I agree to waive my state’s protections against non-competes. As if… that would hold up in any court, ever.
It’s a blatantly illegal clause and I could have fought it at the time… but in the end I knew it was totally unenforceable at worst. I’ll go after them for the penalty if they ever try to enforce it, or if I leave under bad circumstances. It was more valuable to me to have this document than it is for them to have it.
It would be best to make the switch today. That has the dual benefit of a) Showing Google that they will lose users, and maybe they will change their mind (again), and b) Show every website that they do need to put actual effort into supporting and testing against Firefox.
I mean… he’s already a rapist, found to be 100% liable for his rape by a court, just this year.
And this article is claiming that a blow to his business reputation might change his story.
Rape is bad. People should really take notice of the raping thing.
I don’t get the outrage. I’m sure his campaign headquarters was just a little warm and he needed something to create a breeze and cool things off.
A place that only sells fans is where I’d shop as well. Nobody knows fans like a place that is for Only Fans, right?
Don’t forget the raping, which a court found he definitely did. I don’t know why that isn’t mentioned in every article. “Proven rapist, Donald Trump…”
There have been a few notable school districts in my state that got duped by these people over the last 10 years or so, and the pattern is pretty much the same:
It’s a huge waste of time and money, and in the end everyone hates these fucks even more than they did to start with, and people are even more interested in voting in local elections. I’m not sure it’s a winning long-term strategy for the fascists. You could argue it works to get more progressives and moderates to the voting booth in the long run.
Less buying power = recession.
No, it doesn’t = that. People aren’t disagreeing with your viewpoints or opinions. You are 100% using the word “recession” incorrectly, which is what everyone is trying to tell you in this thread.
A recession is a significant, widespread, and prolonged downturn in economic activity. If people are driving up the prices of houses, it’s not a recession. In a recession, house prices plummet because nobody is buying them.
What you are describing is income inequality, which is a real, but completely different thing.
My company has been on a hiring blast since July. I don’t own stocks, but I’m way better off than I was last year at this time.
I just want the train from Denver to Boulder that was promised back in the early 2000s. We voted for it, we funded it, and it… never happened. Now the money is gone. Nobody knows why.
So please do it. Start there. Then go up to Fort Collins so my son can get to college, then finish the southern route.
We do like trains. Everyone should like trains.
