I once read a comment that said something like, “if your post would be considered racist if you wrote ‘black men’ instead of just ‘men’, then it’s very likely misandrist.”
Good words to live by if you aren’t an asshole.

It would seem so. Maybe I should have specified that I like the show myself too.
It’s meant for man-children. Man-childens show.
You don’t have me convinced and I genuinely don’t understand how this could be the popular opinion. You absolutely can’t convince me that with a well designed system it would be easy to cheat when compared to a piece of paper.
Why the hell would software need to be more complex than a few text lines that store the results of your selections? An amateur coder could create a simple multiple choice selection system in an afternoon.
Why does anything other than a local network need to be involved? It can literally function similarly to paper ballots and have a central recipient machine that collects the results that is then handed over to a ballot authority. Please keep going on for hours about the flaws instead of simplifying the problem.
A machine that is sitting in a voting hall is as easily tampered with as a paper ballot, and it’s not going to be done by the average person. Anyone who could manipulate these machines could figure out how to mess with a paper ballot.
You can’t ‘run out’ of a digital vote. You can’t ‘miscount’ a digital vote. If both methods have issues, why choose the one that is OBVIOUSLY easier to manipulate? Oops! Someone misplaced the piece of paper you put in. The year is 2024 and all of the possible issues you’ve just brought up can be solved but it seems that it would be way too easy to actually have accurate vote counts and one less voter suppression tactic in the pocket of shady governments, so they won’t.
Why is it possible to run out of something that could (should) be handled entirely digitally?
They’re not going to do that, instead it will be 3 slow ass cashiers at best and you’ll be waiting to have to stand there awkwardly while some dude tries to act like he’d rather not be dead instead of doing what he’s currently doing and you’re trying your best not to seem like as ass because you’ve been waiting for 10 minutes just to get to that point.
You’ll get the worst of both worlds.
(ps, just do curbside pickup. You don’t get to pick your produce or meats but it’s very easy and you spend so much less time grocery shopping)
Sorry brother, not my problem. I was born well after those events occurred and so did these people.
Solving the problem of having an advantage based on race is not going to be solved by giving “the right” people an advantage based on race.
Economic factors should be the most weighted if any advantage is needed to be given.
Damn, someone should go back and tell my teen self that bad words aren’t allowed.
I am a fucking disgrace.
People downvoting this comment are just mad that you’re right.
That depends on a lot of factors as well, a lot of fast food isn’t made to order and some can be created ahead of time if you’re expecting a lot of orders to come in. Fries, burger patties, some other fried goods like chicken fingers can be held for a little while without them going bad. There’s always the chance that the people working the kitchen may have had the smaller order on hand but needed to make some fresh things for the larger order.
As someone who worked in an understaffed fast food restaurant for like 3 years… No, going inside doesn’t make your order faster. From my experience, orders get made in chronological order of when they were placed. You may be able to place your order quicker (if you’re lucky there’s enough staff to take an in-store order while there’s people in the drive through) but you will probably still wait about the same since the food can only be made so fast, and the few people have to splits their attention even more.
If it’s a normally staffed restaurant then you might have luck, but usually long wait times in the drive through aren’t because the drive through itself is slow… Excluding the random people who pull up with the good ol’, “can I get a uuuuuhhhhhhh…”
Are you including the fact that $100,000 in the 1950s is more than $1million after accounting for inflation?
According to some quick googling, $1,300,000 is the modern equivalent of $100,000 in 1950. That would put you in the top 5% earners (and very nearly in the top 1%). According to the IRS, the top 5% contribute about 65% of the tax burden.
The top 25% make up about 90% of contributions, but that starts around $70,000 annual income.
Seems like everyone agrees that Netflix and the writers behind the show weren’t following the source material very well and were making a lot of bad decisions in terms of show direction.
Cavill is known to want to keep things close to the source material. It seems implied that the “showrunner” and writers were against that attitude, so when he started pushing back, he gets called a misogynist and g*mer for trying redirect the show.
Sounds to me like film industry bullshit and trying to redirect the narrative from someone wanting the show to stay accurate to him being misogynistic simply because he was contradicting a woman.
This is being reported poorly. This is a voluntary program that is intended for social media brand embassadors, aka, the people who go out and rep a brand. It makes sense to include some language requiring someone prepping your brand to show preferable to it.
Obviously, but we’re talking about a really, really small subset of users that probably would earn Microsoft less than a week of coffee in their corporate office.
People who are technical enough to get around the system requirements to install windows 11 on a system that doesn’t meet the minimum requirements is most likely technical enough to upgrade their own computer.
How does that make any sense? Does Microsoft get a cut of sales for component upgrades?
I think that’s an interesting way to look at it. I find it easier to do the mental gymnastics, as you call it.
It does make sense from a payment processing standpoint. It doesn’t make sense to spend more money on creating the transaction than is actually being sent.
