Also known as snooggums on midwest.social and kbin.social.
Impairment is impairment and being tired or distracted by phones/technology is often even worse than being intoxicated or high but we tend to love using BAC because it is easy to measure. Locations that legalized weed didn’t have an increase in impaired driving last time I checked, because most people don’t go out driving when they are high while people often drive intoxicated after drinking at bars.
Any reasonable court would equate requiring a warrant and requiring payment in the context of the 4th amendment (and similar rights/laws in other countries).
It’s more of a salad than a melting pot.
Unless there is a need for faster communication or because it covers a topic that people have strong emotions about and need to see how others respond so they don’t assume the other person’s feelings about something. There are some cases where humans, being social animals, do need some interaction beyond words to accomplish coordinated tasks.
The vast majority of meetings should be emails though. Just wish people actually read emails…
It was in between the two extremes. It was like four hours a day on average of active hunting/gathering for some members of a group, others spent like 4 hours a day cooking/making clothes/building shelter. They had extended periods where they were sheltered from the weather, celebrating holidays, etc.
Hell, most animals only spend a limited number of hours per day actively surviving and have a significant amount of time resting or sheltering from weather.
And life expectancy was skewed by infant deaths. Sure, injury and death weren’t uncommon in their 30s but that is when humans are at their peak physical condition and most people who survived childhood made it to their 50s even if they had some lifelong injuries.
A ton of things I have signed up for spam me with trash emails that they don’t put in the ‘sales’ or ‘offers’ categories I unchecked. Just because I was forced to create an account to buy one thing doesn’t mean I have a ‘business relatiotionship’ that justifies multiple daily reminders of what they have in stock.
Those companies would get in legal trouble in the US if they admitted to doing it intentionally by calling it a bait and switch. They hide behind legal shenanigans like putting ‘limited supplies’ in fine print.
Everybody hates being on the receiving end of bait and switch. Nobody thinks it is clever except the person committing fraud, and they hate it when someone does it to them.
Bait and switch is literally promosing something and fhen replacing it with something else, which is what happened here. It doesn’t imply any cleverness and has extremely negative connotations.
Bait and switch is a specific type type of fraud.
Any baby will do!
“I don’t understand that inexperienced people are inexperienced.”
Assuming they are referring to new graduates.
I just can’t upvote this trash story even though you are correct about the usual reason for upvoting posts even when the subject matter is terrible.
The moon landing by hand wouldn’t have been as funny without the over the top body builders first.
It is sticky and pretty much ruins clothes.
I enjoyed watching Tom Cruise die over and over and over and over and over.
All credit goes to the director, as Denis gets top notch performances from every single person in his films.

Asking if you missed something isn’t rude.
So it didn’t make you dumber. You just didn’t understand that the effects of frequent weed usage takes longer to wear off than alcohol.
