This plane has been flying for 20+ years before it ran into an issue. This is not a Boeing problem. It's a maintenance issue with United.

You drive your car for 20 years and your brakes fail, it's not Honda's fault that you weren't doing the maintenance on it.

That would've been the best opportunity for Danny DeVito to update her list with some pretty funny companions...

WTF????

I just watched the video. It's about 5:30 into the video. Everything leading up to him shooting the dog is not justified at all.

Is no one else going to talk about how weird it is to see a square manhole cover? Now there's a risk of dropping the cover down the hole due to the shape.

They're not wrong about the addiction to dopamine hits. However, this is such a big waste of time and money on such a poor way to handle this.

I keep forgetting that Snapchat is still around until I see a post like this

My dyslexia mixed the fu and the ha on my first read of the title.

Cow-vid

Okay DeSantis, what about making it a requirement to learn about the history and dangers of facism too?

Because of the rule change, it's going to fuck over Dems too when they take over Speaker of the House. Reps are just going to oust every single Dem elected to the position every single day. All they need is one vote to challenge the Speaker. I really hope they nullify the rule.

Wait, is Fox News and Newsmax trying to portray Neo-Nazis as innocent victims?

I guess Eric is still looking for validation from daddy.

This doesn't surprise me. A lot of tech companies that are located in California just had massive layoffs in 2024, which I would think is a significant contributor. Tiktok, Google, Amazon, Riot Games just to name a few.

So Texas is saying it's illegal to transport people to another state if it's for an abortion, but it's encouraged to transport immigrants to another state if they're undocumented?

What if it's an undocumented immigrant that wants an abortion?

Keep in mind there are roughly 15 to 30 questions on each ballot. If they're manually verifying each answer on each ballot, then it's really easy to make mistakes.

You're right. OP called it a manhole, so I assumed. But looking at the size compared to the foot, it's too small to be a manhole cover.

Farmers Insurance is a terrible insurance company. My HOA uses them, and they told us that if we filed another claim, they would drop us. I later found out my girlfriend's HOA uses them too, and they were told something similar, almost word for word. Apparently, even if they deny a claim, they count it against you.

Tildes would be THE Reddit alternative for me. Unfortunately, it doesn't have the users, and it's invite only. However, the creator of RIF is currently working on a project for them, and that was my preferred 3rd party Reddit app.

I noticed that Hey Google wasn't working from the lock screen anymore. Pretty annoying.

You're not wrong. Obama was a really good president. The problem is that instead of being far left, he was a very left central president and tried very hard to work with Republicans.

Part of the problem is that Republicans didn't want to associate with the opposing factor and started moving further right as Obama positioned himself in the center. The racists in the far right were ready to undo everything Obama helped shaped during his 8 years in office.

I'm a little mixed on this. I do think he should be lower on the rankings due to a lot of his shitty policies.

However, he has also done some significant differences that still affect us today. He did make GPS globally available to the public at no cost. Could you imagine having to pay to use your GPS every time, or not having GPS available to you at all unless you were in the military?

Pong. They could flesh out the storyline a little more.

Considering that one of the events will be in Oklahoma City, maybe they want us to use planes instead of cars.

In return, Kim Jung Un probably gave Putin a couple new nuclear launch codes

There's a risk that if you try to turn the square cover that the cover will fall into the hole. It's really strange that it's square and not round.

Taylor Swift. She started out as a country singer, completely changed her genre, and became a pop sensation.

Edit: Nevermind, her first album was in 2005 I think.

The other difference is that the measurement is "scammed ONLINE". Boomer generation will have fewer numbers overall that are heavy participants on the Internet, which I think would increase the chances of running into an online scam.

My mom barely even knows how to use a smartphone. So she's not likely to be involved online long enough to interact with something that would scam her. However if she DID run into a scam, I'm pretty sure my mom would 100% fall for it.

As much as I really dislike the current SCOTUS, I do have faith that a majority would understand that if they allow this to continue happening, it would set an extremely dangerous precedent to allow more insurrections without repercussions. The only justice willing to allow this is probably Justice Clarence Thomas. Fuck that guy.

The site was on life support way before letting people go. It's already a sinking ship since the porn rule.

leaving us with a president that we'll over most of America didn't vote for.

Keep in mind that in the last 30-something years, Republicans have only won the popular vote once for the Presidency, and that was back in 2004.

Install Pixel Experience, and use it to upload photos to your Google account without consuming your Google Drive data allotment.

Still, she's one of the few Republicans that did vote to impeach Trump. As someone that is left leaning, I interpreted her comment as a joke more than a mockery of the change. She's one of the few alright Righties overall, tbh.

The officer must've felt his life was threatened as she was driving away. That's why he had to shoot.

This is my assumption, the demand for people that want a 7" phone does not justify the cost of development and manufacturing. Yes, there will be people that would want it, but just like the iPhone Mini, the demand wasn't justified to continue producing the smaller phone.

Generally 6" to 6.5" seems to be the sweet spot that is large enough to use, and small enough that it fits in my pocket comfortably.

What is the main reason why you want to move away from Spotify? Is it the cost or another reason?

I left Reddit when they killed RIF. In Lemmy, I wanted something similar and tried Jerboa and Connect. Those apps didn't really feel like RIF no matter how much I customized it. Sync really is the definitive replacement for the RIF experience. I gotten my version to look and feel like it exactly.

Or about $12 for every single person in the entire world.

On a separate note, war machines are very expensive and definitely overpriced.

Just wanted to say that it's not happening to me. Biometrics seem fine for me on my 6.

Not sure what would cause that to break on your end. Good luck tho.

The article is behind a paywall. If you look at other articles, the status change is due to the Truth Social stock that just went public, and he owns 58% of the stocks. The stock jumped up by a lot. But he can't take it out for another 6 months.

So starting today, he'll probably have a bank that will loan him enough to make bond since there's a good chance he can pay back in 6 months. However, I hope it completely tanks by then.
