No way he is 215, but I'm not surprised the number is something like that. I don't think he even got on the scale. They probably just asked him and accepted his answer. Like him or not, he is a former president and they are going to handle him with kid gloves. Not to mention there is a decent chance the people processing him also voted for him.

As I understand it, SovCits think there is this magical pool of money the government is keeping for everyone (for some nefarious purpose I don't understand), so they think they can get out off paying any debt they owe by sending some combination of paperwork that, in effect, says bill the government and have them pay it from the magic money pool. He sent, what I'm guessing is supposed to be, a bill of exchange saying bill the government. And included language that said if you don't respond that you are doing this within 3 days, the debt will be discharged and I owe you nothing. Because SovCits think they can just write things like that and they are automatically legally binding. The company ignored his nonsense and said pay us our money, so he filed a bunch of complaints with different organizations (SEC, CFPB). And despite all his flawless paperwork, the company ultimately took the car back.

Number of people who believe the FIA can't afford it: 0.

My bet is he wants to run for governor after he is done being mayor and knows he needs to be a Republican to have any chance at winning.

NDA's wouldn't apply to legally compelled testimony.

It's also somewhat ironic that the plaintiffs are women. It should be obvious that after they've finished dismantling the systems that help minorities, the systems that help women will be the next target.

Sentencing is a whole process in and of itself. Often consisting its own investigation and witnesses that is intended to help the judge determine what the appropriate sentence will be.

I hear ya. There are at least some other recent examples. The settlement between Fox News and Dominion. Giuliani is being held to account for libeling the Georgia poll workers. And of course all the Trump cases. But yeah, feels like a drop in the ocean.

So the teacher has to prepare 6-8 different lesson plans every day and be knowledgeable enough and comfortable enough to teach every subject themselves?

All while trying to keep 100 kids focused and on task?

Just write or choose a good ethical framework that is actually relevant for the management of online communities. There's better, more modern shit out there that also includes the principle of do no harm.

You know what would be helpful here? Actually naming and/or linking to some of these better frameworks you think they should consider using.

Definitely. Keep your palms high to make it easier for the pinky to reach. If you rest your palms on the keyboard, it will make it awkward to use the pinky for keys in the upper rows.

If it's floating you aren't getting all the air out of the bag. If you sous vide regularly, it may be worth investing in a vacuum sealer. If you don't want to do that there's all sorts of videos that show different techniques for getting the air out. Experiment and find one that works well for you.

This is just working to lower expectations so a bad performance can still be called a win.

As you've already touched on, company culture is everything at small companies. If you fit in well, you'll love it. If you don't, you'll hate it. I would ask to talk to other people in the company besides the CEO and talk to them about what working there is like and what kind of person would fit in well. If the CEO (I'm assuming that is who you are interviewing with) balks at the Idea, that right there tells you something.

Applying sealer to asphalt every few years extends how long the asphalt lasts before it has to be replaced.

Assuming I could be confident the coffin would hold up against the weight of the dirt, I would do it. I remember the Mythbusters tested a myth related to being buried alive. To test it, they buried Jamie in a coffin and ended up having to pull the plug because the dirt was crushing the coffin.

That essay feels like it should be posted on whatever the Lemmy equivalent of r/im14andthisisdeep would be.

Sounds like someone is jealous he's not the one in Trump's ear anymore.
