Huawei har really taken a nose dive. Good phones, but after the whole debacle, virtually nobody in Western world buys them

Well, apparently urine and salt water will eventually create some urine stone that you need to use some sort of acid or heavy vinegar to dissolve. That is not compatible work aluminium tanks. And you should really change the hoses every 10 ish years as they start to smell. It appears to be time for that, so I just have to bite the shitty apple and replace them…

Fint forget the kangaroo!

The septic hoses on my boat became clogged the last day of vacation, I have dismantled most of the floor and I’m going to replace them all. It’s a literal shit show of a job…

I’m sorry, but this is a silly statement. This is by no means an ADHD thing. It’s a pattern understanding or logic

I’m trying to teach my kid this. Not to use this specific method for addition, but recognize and understand patterns in math.

That’s neat and all. But how do they retract their heads?

Fyi - “gud” equals god in Norwegian.

So its even more potent 😄

Well… It used to be called “going postal” because of the frequent mass shootings in postal offices by postal workers…

Why that changed I can’t tell you.

On a slightly funny(?) note, postal the game was created where you are in fact going postal. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postal_(video_game)

Apparently there is a plot line that is not about shooting postal workers, so who knows.

For anybody like myself who doesn’t know enough ancient greek… Lithos means rock…

Early termination fees are not that horrible. They can give you a monthly cost where some of the costs for installing it might be distributed over they contact period. Fine and ok

But i should still be able to cancel my contract without jumping through 11 loops and queues.

If you sign up for a given contract, that’s what you have agreed upon. It sucks if you only have one option and they can set a ridiculous price. So if you want to regulate pricing, that’s a different matter. Cancelling is something else altogether.

I hope it was a genious piece of code that was miles ahead of what it replaced.

And still it got rejected 😄

The state can of course intervene. Happens quite often when essential workers go on strike like medical workers, law enforcement and if teachers go on strike for too long.

So you can in theory go on an indefinite strike, but the state can swoop in an decide what the new number is. In Norway we can it “tvungen lønnsnemnd”, which can be translated to “forced pay agreement”.

Nobody wants this, but it happens. In some occupations more than others.

Most likely its a payment plan for purchases. Klarna is a company where you can delay payment and such. They are a third party connection, so I believe a webshop will not know that is input on Klarnas end. But who knows how Midtgård does in their checkout process…

Right. So it’s a Schroedinger’s quote…😑

But thanks for pointing out what was obvious for others

Where do you get rubies the success of diamonds for like a dollar each? Or 20 dollar each… I couldn’t understand if it was 20 for 20 or 20 for 1…

Either way I want it…

This is the quote:

“I don’t see any scenario where they’re responsible for less than 10% of the value destruction, so around $4 billion.”

In my head, he is comparing the minimum size of ADLs value reduction to be 10% or 4 billion. 10% of 44 billion is 4,4 billion. In this comment he is not saying anything about the current value except that 10% of 44 is around 4.

How else can you read it?

Two plus two equals five for large values of two

Non-americans are not shocked by this😇

I take it chatGPT does not give you windows 10 codes if you ask about it directly? You just have to trick it a little OG Grandma style?😅
