Same. 30 mins to everything.
Because it’s 25 mins to get to town and 5 mins to get to the other side of town.
You’re just seeing a partner from another slice of the multiverse.
This makes me think I need an addition to my will…
to make sure my kid can sell my remains for profit!
Had to learn this the hard way myself.
Now I literally ask when it isn’t obvious. Do you want support or solutions? It’s rarely the latter but at least we’re both on the same page.
There’s a Wikipedia link and a hundred others if you bother to search even a little.
Besides, doesn’t matter if it’s real. It’s a story. It’s entertainment. And it’s just as real as any other opinion here.
Nothing about it was quick.
Had to drive nearly an hour over to the next town. Then wait in a lobby for the same amount of time. Then drive to a pharmacy to pick up the pills. Half of my day when I knew I just needed a basic antibiotic.
This last winter I was unemployed and I got sick enough to need antibiotics.
I couldn’t prove that I didn’t have a job, so the ‘sliding scale clinic’ charged me $586 to talk to someone (not a doctor). I knew what I needed. I was forced to take an unnecessary STD test ($180) and to promise I would go in for additional testing and scanning (undisclosed price, to be determined AFTER).
The meds were around $40 for a week of pills (15 pills).
I knew my issue, and just needed a prescription for the antibiotics.
I have a job now. They want about $200 a month for the basic coverage. I have on average, $20-$30 at the end of the pay period. So I could get insurance, but it means skipping more meals (I already skip several a week to save money).
So I just hope nothing ever goes wrong because if it does, I’ll need to be close to death before I get help that will take me years to pay for.
Almost 3 years after quiting a heavy 26 years habit. I quit cold turkey.
Currently being forced to move having no income and no social circle and family is distant.
Super proud I haven’t broken yet. I want one ALL THE DAMN TIME.
I use physical exercise to help me get through my cravings.
Years ago I adopted the identifier ‘Cascadian’ as I fit most of the stereotypes.
(Referring to those of us that live in/around the Cascade mountain range.)
I know it’s not ‘a hobby’ but being native to the PNW, it really is a lifestyle. We’re out playing in the wilderness, hunting, fishing, enjoying the rain. We smell a little like moss & dirt with a hint of patchouli. We grown our own food and prefer our animals over people most of the time. I’m about to move across the country and I have no idea what my life will be like. I spend 90% of my free time outside in wilderness where most of my ‘hobbies’ take place.
As someone who also has to argue about how wrong everyone else is…
I always tell them to imagine the iconic ‘slipping on a banana peel’ joke. Sometimes I make them draw it.
If you peel from the stem, it would never look like that. We have so many references that I challenge anyone to show me any media from any time period that shows the banana opened from the stem.
People learn the stem way as children because it’s easier with limited motor skills and just never give it up.
Did you have a tutorial or something you followed?
The last time I installed Linux was over 20 years ago when I repurposed an old Gateway PC to be a switch/VPN. I’m sure it’s not outside of my ability but wouldn’t know where to start.
Working on remodeling a motorhome and I want to build a few Home Assistant interfaces. If I could use my old M8 that is still in perfect condition that would be amazing.
I have an M8 in perfect condition. I stopped using it when the HTC gallery bug corrupted a bunch of my photos.
What is this about unlock codes? How do I get them? Do I need to use them ASAP?
I don’t have the time to research and go through the steps to do this right now but I would like to use it in the near future.
A coiled wire screwed to the end of the stick (like a spring). Jam over the rock and pull up.
SOS doesn’t stand for anything. People made it up later.
The original distress signal was CQD, which stood for “seeking you, distress” or “all stations, distress,” according to PBS. This was widely used by the British, while Germans used SOE and the Americans used NC, which meant “call for help without delay.”
A 1906 International Telegraphic Radio Conference effectively standardized communication by suggesting the simpler SOS, which is easier to signal because of its distinct dots and dashes sequence.
See the difference for yourself:
CQD: -.-./–.-/-…
SOS: …/—/…
