@martzoukos Laughs in lack of school shootings and free healthcare and education. Which makes the fact that the US has a much higher GDP but doesn't have any kind of socialized safety net that much sadder.

Not sure if I'm angrier with the fact that he's taking a cheap shot at EU or that he's excluding the entire european south with his british and french stereotypes.

@catalinmpit > Can't believe how much difference can 2 inch make. heh

English

Catalin@catalinmpit·14 Mar

Left - 16 inch Right - 14 inch It's absolutely impossible to work on a screen smaller than 16 inch. Can't believe how much difference can 2 inch make. I'll choose the 16 inch Mac over all (smaller) sizes all day every day. And no, it's not inconvenient for travelling.

@ZubyMusic @AJA_Cortes I was gonna ask the same. We're expecting the first baby in the family and my parents are ecstatic and talking about setting up a baby room at their place so we can visit more easily.

@AJA_Cortes Never heard of this. Is this a weird American thing like kicking kids out at 18?

I hear this often from married friends with kids, their parents have little interest in their grandchildren My parents are not this way (total opposite) But its common enough that there are memes and reddit threads devoted to it I find it completely inexplicable

BowtiedNerdyRN@BowtiedNerdyRN

I'll never get my parents. They have 3 beautiful, awesome grandkids that love them. But they could hardly be bothered to see them. I have to press them to come see their grandbabies. On the other hand, my kids will probably get sick of me visiting them and their babies 😂

I'm convinced it's impossible to have played Deus Ex when it came out and years later hear about it and NOT install it again

@AmirStrength When I was in high school, a couple acquaintances of mine picked a fight with an older kid and he beat them up. He was only a year or two older but knew how to fight. Their dad sent literal goons to scare him. He never even looked at them again.

You most likely don't need TRT. Your training and/or diet just suck.

I know a guy that's into crypto and investments which is harmless in and of itself and he tries to educate others in those fields. Both fine. But then he also posts the size of his portfolio and how much crypto he buys.

I will never, for the life of me, understand people flaunting their wealth online unless the end goal is a grift (course, paid community etc). It never attracts the right kind of attention.

Ooh I know something about this broad class of business, without commenting on the specific one. Many governmental suborgs offer credit card payments as a convenience for users. Most of them consider this relatively hard to do internally.

Dave Guarino@allafarce

In 2024, the State of California's Franchise Tax Board — should you want to pay by credit card — redirects you to... the scammiest looking web site I've seen in years. The URL is... literally... official payments dot com?? cc @patio11

@TommyiestThomas I always found it interesting how Chris Evans has been in SO MANY comic book adaptations. MCU, F4, Scott Pilgrim, The Losers and Snowpiercer. Not sure if I'm missing any.

"I'm engaged to the hottest girl on the planet" - Reed Richards describing his wife, the only positive attribute he has to say about her. These movies are fun and have great dynamics on the surface but they don't get Reed or Sue.

now is a perfect time to remind everyone that Fantastic 4 (2005) still holds up after almost 20 years with a perfect cast

@PublicStores πιο γελοίο κατάστημα δεν υπάρχει. Παραγγειλαμε πλυντήριο και στεγμωτηριο και αμέσως ζητήσαμε να καθυστερήσει η παραγγελία γιατί δεν έχουμε έτοιμο σπίτι. Κανένα πρόβλημα μας λένε και τα στέλνουν την επόμενη μέρα κι επειδή δεν μπορούσαμε να παραλάβουμε την ακύρωσαν

Your 2FA and hardware wallet won't protect you if criminals know you have assets. $3 wrench beats any encryption.

@mexreactionary @TellYourSonThis Accept his flaws and believe he did the best he could for you. After all, you did surpass him. I'm in the same boat. You transition away from a mentor/mentee relationship to a deep friendship.

@TellYourSonThis How do you manage your ego after you surpassed your father while he’s alive? It’s hard for me to respect him. He represents everything I despise.

@BowTiedBull Paid for the substack in 2020. 2023 was my third year making six-figures working from home. 2024 starting a separate biz.

We've got nearly 200K niche followers. Yet once every quarter or so a new person finally sees the light about starting a online biz. That means 1/200,000 per quarter is willing to actually figure it out. You have no worries about us going mainstream. 99.999% won't start.
