Unfortunately I am in America and that is a compact car. Most vehicles here are 4.75 meters in length or more. I do have to haul an equipment set for work.

I've leased a couple of Imprezas the past 5 years. I love the car, it's so small but capable. A couple of years ago when my last lease was up, I wanted to get an EV or hybrid from Subaru but there were no options at the time. Now I'm torn on going with an EV or buying out my current lease (I don't want interior cameras).

As someone who built up a business working 80+ hrs; fuck that guy. 5 years ago I was paying part timers$26/hr and my only full time (salary) - told him 30 hrs/week max. It was my risk/investment, not theirs. I didn't want them to get burned out. Happier employees perform better.

How?! How can they stand it themselves and not feel like they're being blinded?

Except the GOP has already started doing those things... It's not like this is coming out of nowhere. I hate the DNC but hate facism a whole lot more so the choice is clear.

Same here. I left for about 10 years but started coming back gradually a few years ago. After everything that happened this year, I made the full switch to Mozilla on all my devices. I'm very happy to be back though!

As a small business owner: nothing. My employees have been extremely productive being able to work from home. We already drive more than the average job. Driving to the office just watses time and money for everyone. We use our office now for storage more than anything else.

IIRC they sold and shipped 2 generations of CPUs that were essentially defective and unrepairable.

I love wolf spiders. They are pretty chill if you leave them be. We have a few in my basement and I tell them not to let my SO see them or else I have to move them to the garage. We never have any bugs/insects in the house.

Almost the exact same situation here. I tested it on myself and it's like a TENS unit. It's been a few years and now we really only use the tone button. It was a lifesaver for training though.

They don't know what it means. I have a friend who would boast about how free America is (they are 2nd generation). It's taken over half a decade of me providing information that states otherwise. I think it's finally starting to settle in with them. Sadly, the propaganda runs deep and it can take a long time for someone to break free of thought control.

You guys who? I used to vote Republican... I'm an independent voter who wants a political reform of ranked choice voting, removing the 2 party system, etc... I only vote Democrat now because the GOP shoved their foot so far up their ass showing their true colors.

The GOP went full orange cult. They're now hell bent on taking rights away and decide to vote against anything positive for their constituents as long as it is under the name of opposing democrats. They used to be the party of small government. Now they want to control everything and remove only regulations that 'stop profit.' They're not even close to being the same party they used to be.

"So that's what things would be like if I invented the finglonger..."

I believe he specifically said it during one of the debates. I really wish he would have followed through with it.

They shouldn't have made a personal attack like that, but they're not wrong. Herd immunity is needed. Individual vaccination, while helpful, isn't fool proof. Especially for highly infectious diseases like measles.

I agree. I feel like many people aren't testing. I had it very mild in June of 2023. I thought it was allergies but tested and sure enough; positive. My fiance thought she had a cold in November of 2023 but decided to test and it was positive. Meanwhile all these people around us have "colds" but aren't actually testing. I somehow escaped it when my fiance had it so I got a booster last month hoping I can escape this wave and help cut the spread.

I absolutely love that haha.

I remember it as well. That's when I started buying unlocked phones and rooting them to get around having to pay. I was pleasantly surprised when I found out there wasn't a fee anymore. I really hope that having to pay for hotspot isn't coming back.

As a former 3rd party voter; it's a wasted vote. I don't like either parties but voting 3rd party favors the GOP in US elections. Now that the GOP is full steam ahead on facism, voting 3rd party is dangerous. Hopefully more municipalities, states, and national elections will migrate to ranked choice voting to make voting for other parties a viable option. Until then, I'd rather not vote for the party that wants a dictatorship.
