My biggest tipping question is when I stop to get takeout and order a beer while I’m waiting. I’ll tip 20% on the beer, but only like 10% on the food…

0.416 columbines.

@89th said in 30%: @taiwan_girl said in 30%: How to fix? NOt sure you can limit to whom you sell. I'd imagine it would be somewhat simple to have a law that requires you to live in a house if you buy it. Grandfather existing rentals, I guess. But otherwise the law would be clear that sales cannot be to institutional investors. The problem I see is that it would eliminate the rental houses almost completely.

@Doctor-Phibes said in We have sort of memory-holed this: Apart from the deaths, there are plenty of people suffering with various after-effects, long Covid and what-have-you. I know quite a few people who've struggled. I remember that @George-K daughter had/has it.

I also agree with what 89 wrote. In Rubio’s current capacity it was sufficient to acknowledge the existence of war crimes without further explanation.

In a way, the # of deaths tracks with improved health care.

@89th me too

I wonder if any (or all) of that video is actually AI. Plot twist!

Grok said it was real and identified the manufacturer

@LuFins-Dad said in Lufin.. WTF: Nothing worse than a Hall of Fame player known for two teams, IMO. 1.2 million American deaths from COVID was worse.

The she-shed thing has been around for well over a decade. It’s mostly just garden sheds that are given over to “crafts” and box wine.

Neo-Mercantilism.

God, just leave it alone. It’s fine as a tourist attraction.

I try to avoid the news, but it's really exhausting spending any time trying to figure out how these folks got their jobs. The whole administration could use a viewing of a youtube "civics 101" course video. Like the President thinking the Declaration of Independence is a "document full of unity, of love".

"Hey man, where you Putin that thing?"

@jon-nyc said in The Slate truck: It still has the problem of the small intersection on the ‘wants a truck’ / ‘wants an EV’ Venn diagram. Solution to that has been around for some time already. It’s called the Nissan Frontier Pro4X.
