I’m surprised I got 80%. I thought I’d fail for sure. Granted, the real test isn’t multiple choice, at least according to the blurb at the end of the quiz. I’m sure I’d do horribly on the real thing, but that’s why people study for it ahead of time.

Absolutely. Here’s one specific example.

Yes, mostly from your instance.

Waffle House is great, though?

Ohhhhh, that makes sense. It would probably help if I read the article, but I hate giving these people clicks. I thought the headline was talking about resigning from running for VP.

I use them when warranted, which isn’t very often. I don’t think the avoidance of using swears is a religious thing, it’s a language/cultural thing. For some reason they’re just deemed “bad words”. They exist in almost all languages and cultures as far as I know.

A good friend of mine swears a lot unless kids are around. I don’t mind it, but he’s sort of “that guy” because of it. If he was someone I just met, I’d think he’s just a bit lowbrow and that’s about it. I wouldn’t think poorly of anyone because of it as long as their attitude is good.

If they both made it up, why aren’t there calls for both to resign?

It’d be fun to see some lady in a suit hooking a Dodge Ram to a tow truck as fast as she could.

This was a repossession, so unless the repo guy made a mistake they were really far behind on payments. For a car to get repossessed, the loaner needs to get to the point where they know there’s no way they’re ever getting their money. They would much rather have the guy try and catch up on payments, maybe come to some sort of repayment plan, even something reduced from the original loan, etc. They want money, not a truck.

Otherwise, boots are definitely the way to go if possible, but most of the time a car gets towed because its parked illegally and shouldn’t be there. You can’t just move it off to the side, so they have to take it to the tow place. It’s expensive and it sucks, but I don’t know of a better solution.

Yes, you’re so helpful. We are so lucky to have you.

You are clearly in the wrong here. Please take a time-out.

vote early

I fixed it for you. For some reason Lemmy seems to want to full URL.

I used Plex for a long time but moved to Jellyfin after reading about the general direction Plex is going (trying to commercialize it, partner up with industry, make it more than just a self hosted media service).

Both have what you’re looking for.

I would say Plex is slightly easier and has the benefit of PlexAmp (available for Linux, Windows, and mobile).

That being said, Jellyfin is about the same ease to get set up, but it’s just a tad less polished, but in sort of a nice way. It feels more like “yours”, if that makes sense.

For both, I recommend hosting them in Docker, using Docker Compose, and using the LinuxServer version. LinuxServer maintains updated software, packaged in an easy to install format and they help you out with sample Docker Compose files and explanations to get things running.

That’s a good reason. My reason is because it all sounds made up.

People look at expensive houses more often than not. You can definitely send someone, though, like if you’re looking at a house in a different city and can’t get there just for a showing. We did that once and had our friend do a video chat with us.

How does this work? You must stop working at “retirement age”? Or is that when your benefits kick in, meaning you must work until then?

Retirement is a financial position, not an age. In the US you can start withdrawing social security at age 62 (at a reduced amount/month). They consider 67 to be full retirement age, meaning you get the largest amount (per month) if you wait until then. A lot of people treat that as their retirement plan, so it ties an age to when you stop working.

We decided to not host any sort of Buy-Sell-Trade community on our hobby instance for this reason. It’s a small community so a lot of people know usernames of people they know and can trust. It’s very easy for a scammer to use someone’s username and say “I’ll sell you that thing! Send me $150!”.

There’s a big difference in their performances, though. With Biden it was more a question of “is this guy even going to be alive in January?”, vs Trump who’s just the same old idiot he has always been, and just finally met his match.

Wrong thread, I think.

It’s all averages and statistics can always be spun however you want, but hopefully there’s some truth to it. I don’t even know what “household income” is limited to. If more people are moving in as roommates, for example, that’s not a good thing, but does it raise the household average? I’m too lazy to look it up haha.
