Those are now blue balls.

In the early 2000s Ticketmaster began to really take off. The fees and extras really started to bother me. So I stopped going to any events that used them. Other than a few state/county fair events I haven't been to a concert since 2001. Because of Ticketmaster. I have no regrets either.

You are still not half as confused as the average libertarian.

I would say 0 for Israel. They can pay for their own mess. This shit is because of their own actions.

Not biased at all. A transportation CEO wanting people to use transportation to get to work. I can't smell any bias.

I have to report if a drug rep buys lunch, rightly so, and this guy gets trips, tuition, etc. Baffles me how a judge can get away with it.

I'm getting so tired of the Nazis...why are we at this point...why can't we be compassionate and reasonable.

My state GOP representative died of COVID weeks before the election and won. Gotta love red states 😩

I used it initially, because I hated Apple and their proprietary stuff and have stayed ever since. I liked androids more universal approach. SD cards, usb, etc.

I am not. Plus the ones needing to be mined by wasting of ton of energy are basically an environmental disaster.

Guns don't make suicide more likely, they make them more successful.

Me as well. I occasionally peak back to some niche subreddits, but don't contribute anymore. I'm hoping some pop up here over time.

It is a public health crisis. Cops can't fix a public health crisis. It's not their job, they are not trained to do so. This was the heart of defund the police. Not to get rid of police but to redirect funds to agencies that are trained to fix non police problems.

I think it has turned into a sunk cost fallacy for so many now. They put so much money into it they can't afford for it to fail/not continue.

Don't forget found liable for rape too. Imo worse than his felony charges.

All government needs checks and balances.

I understand what you mean but they are also so ubiquitous it's hard as a parent to enforce. I try to delete YouTube from our TV's but it's nearly impossible. And if you tell kids not to eat the cookies, they are going to find a way to eat the cookies.

I have one of these fridges that failed. It was delivered and installed initially...I never saw the box. How does that factor in? Plus don't buy LG, it's a shit company.

95% of earth unseasonably warm. "Point" to 5% that is unseasonably cold, see there is no "global warming." This crap is all over Facebook.

I flew on a Delta 737 with duct tape everywhere. Was delayed. Then an Airbus 321 and because of delay they shut off the engines. But then the auxiliary power unit wouldn't start to restart the engines and had to be towed back to the gate. I'm wondering who maintains thaes planes anymore, sketchy all around....

I looked into getting solar installed. Best I could get in my area was $45k for a 10kW system or $97k for a 20kW with 2 power walls for storage. F that, even with government subsided rates.

It's raining in the Dakotas today, usually I'm ice fishing

Once the most socialist states in the country...how far we have fallen. It is a politically sad place now.

I just went from a 3770k with a vega 64 to a 7800x3d with 7900xtx. Pretty big jump!

Someone needs to make an extension that googles random stuff all the time and floods ones history with so much background noise that the history becomes useless.

One of those things is killing dogs.

Wow, I did not know that. He could definitely drop the percentage he takes from Indy developers. I always thought his 30%, was scummy. Now moreso.

I also liked Skyrim and oblivion. Not sure how people can think they suck.

As a North Dakota I'm surprised by the resignation. There is almost zero accountability here. The GOP and more so Maga has taken over. The DNC/NPL is basically dead here. The right gets free reign. ND is in a rough spot politically and I do not see a fix for decades. At one time we were a state that had to fend for itself and became a success story for socialist programs. Farmers coops, state bank and mill. Progressive prison system and produces top notch schools and exported highly educated people. It is all reversing because of greed driven by oil and gas. Write us off we as we will not help progress society or help this planet due to greed and corruption.

The difference between the left and right are the right thing Cuomo should be in jail and the left think Cuomo AND Trump should be in jail.

It's not a BS term it is the patented term used by Percy Maxim when he invented it.

Same thing happened to college financial aid. The more aid given the more colleges raised the prices.

90-95% of imaging cost is the technical fee. An ultrasound is usually 0.5 to 1.0 RVUs roughly. So let's say 1. The RVU rate for radiologists right now is around $45-60 an RVU. So of the $2k for the ultrasound, a Radiologist will make about $50 of it.

God for you chasing a dream, making people happy.... Good for you!

A lot of us in healthcare stayed pretty stable. I don't know of any that did "better", but other than elective stuff, day to day dropped only a little. About 9-10% of Americans are in healthcare. I do know a lot of delivery services did well too.
