The soda machine is still $1. This both supports the operation and lures the unaware.

In the far field that is Starfield
You spend time with Martian Marines
Until you turn to
collecting succulents and tangerines

Whatever else he may have said, Marx’s version was much better. “From each according to his ability, to each according to his need” is a much better way to run society as a whole.

Unfortunately for you, you just lost the game.

The poem written on Lady Liberty’s base bears repeating, I think.

The New Colossus
Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she
With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

In case anyone is curious, it’s essentially the same as the PC version on release. 4 apps total (If there are more I can’t find them), 0 other features worth mentioning besides an “install” button.

I get a free one from Verizon with FiOS that’s actually pretty decent, especially considering it’s free. Triband, the webui is decent, and aside from an issue that required rebooting every few days that got fixed pretty quickly it’s been pretty stable.

In my experience, a lot of “devoutly” religious people are like this.

I grew up Independent Fundamental Baptist (westboro, but less vocally homophobic) and my dad told me a few years ago he secretly kept a stash of alcohol in the garage while he was quite aggressively teaching that the Bible expressly forbade consumption of alcohol that could get you drunk because of a long argument that basically amounts to “Paul said so.” (The proper response to that is “fuck Paul”, obv. Paul was an asshat.)

You can twist anything into anything if you try hard enough, and they’re really good at it.

I tried Flashflood once. Their process is confusing and ended with a store employee being incredibly rude when it was Flashfood’s (and to a lesser extent the store’s) fault.

Decent concept in theory, terrible execution in my experience with that specific service. It’s so much nicer when the store just slaps a sticker on product already on the shelf and knocks down the price.

small brewerys pay half tax.

This is smart. Why don’t more places do this?

I knew there was something I missed lol

I haven’t noticed anything less than what I would consider “good” personally, but I’ve heard things from a few people that it’s generally good quality but not perfectly consistent, which is fair enough imo.

It’s not perfect, but given that it’s a free mod they knocked it out of the park. Buggy obviously, but the world and level design are excellent, the writing is generally good, and they added back skill checks and other things. I’ve been having a lot of fun.

I get your point and agree with it to an extent, but I’d argue that being a good neighbor is a good thing in a politician. Sure, you can be a total asshole and do an excellent job as governor or president or whatever, but being a nice person is kinda helpful.

By all means, lead with the important bits (which for the record I have looked into and mostly like) and include this on page 12, but that doesn’t mean it’s worthless.

EDIT: Apparently he was governor in 2019 so it is a little different than him just being a good neighbor, but I think my point still stands. It’s a hell of a lot better news than “Old orange fascist quotes Hitler again”

You’re not wrong

The customer needed the adult diapers.

Not the OP, but I’ve been that person before. I’ll leave it up to your imagination what position I was in.

I’ll admit I am somewhat curious how it all played out though.

Is he ever right about literally anything?

Fallout 4, Minecraft, and Flightgear. I love FO4, have been getting into Minecraft, and Flightgear is an endless hole I didn’t have the hardware to use. They’re also all easily moddable.

Library that is also the first book in the Bible has 99.999% of everything I’ve ever looked for.

I expect this will go like it did at the church I attended growing up. They’ll apologize, maybe even shed a tear or two then everything will go back to normal.

The only way to end this is to do something about the underlying system they teach that allows and condones behavior like this. Churches like this treat the leadership like they’re little gods, because to the flock (this is the term they use) they’re literally the voice of God. The pastor (usually) can’t be wrong because that would obviously mean God was wrong, and that can’t happen or the universe disappears in a paradox.

I don’t know what to do about it, but this is (part of) the problem as I see it.

If it’s just HF and you didn’t sign any paperwork on the matter when you worked there, it’s probably fine. If you signed paperwork, consult an attorney yadda yadda yadda.

It’d be one thing if you worked in an industry where those uniforms might give you actual access somewhere (police, fire, EMS, etc), but this is not that.
