Replace “netflix” with “health care” and re-read the post. Th point is it’s stupid to pay for something 3 times over but thats how (American) health care is.

My wife finally upgraded after 5 years, and I’m on year 4 of my Pixel 6 and its still going strong, will probably go another 1-2 years with it.

To a dictionary

Every treatment plant in the country is already collecting samples of wastewater as it enters and leaves the plant as they have to take certain measurements every day to show compliance. To my knowledge, there is no way to identify/track individuals based on wastewater. There is a government database of everyone’s license plate.

The primary purpose of wastewater treatment is biological material and nutrient removal, primarily nitrogen. Check out the wikipedia page for more details, I’m a biologist, not a chemist. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wastewater_treatment

So this is actually my industry - Wastewater Based Epidemiology or WBE. It is very anonymous. There is no way to pick out one person’s identity from the waste stream. What we get is a about 100mL of blend from 24 hour’s worth of shit water passing into the treatment plant. A tiny treatment plant is processing 100,000 gallons per day, while a top 10 plant is processing > 100 Million gallons per day.

Who the fuck is asking for that?

Lol it’s the year we bought the equipment. But there’s also a ! so the password is super secure

Hey now, we have a piece of equipment who’s password is our company name (shorthand) twice and then a 4 digit number 2000>x>2026

If I recall correctly the girl has polio which caused her to collapse in the field and is trying to get back home but there is no one available to help her. So your no escape, or maybe “no hope” feeling is correct.

Depending on OPs age, they may have just been old ass white repubs in their mind.

Delaware has some attractive tax benefits for companies, so most large us-based businesses are incorporated in Delaware.

You can, it just seemed like a lot of info to dump in my first post. Shadowrun is a classless, level less system. Your xp is called Karma, and you can spend Karma to increase your skills and attributes.

For all its other faults, I love the Edge system of shadowrun. In brief, Edge is an attribute like strength or charisma but also a resource pool. You can spend a point for a greater chance of success, or you can permanently burn an edge point for a +4 success (degree of success is calculated into damage).

Luckily we have tools like CamelCamelCamel to track pricing of products overtime and know if something is on sale or just marked up to mark down (i.e. the Kohl’s protocol)

He’s claimed he will cover the 250 million dollar bill himself. (And then immediately asked for 230 million in retribution from the JD for investigating him).

While a little arbitrary, we use “ability to produce viable offspring” as a metric of speciation. Two animals can bone and create an offspring, but that offspring has to have live gametes (egg/sperm) for the parents to be considered the same species.

“Yah but nuance is so hard! It’s so much easier to just hate everything I don’t understand”

One of our bioinformatics has a sign at his desk that says “taxonomy is a social construct”.
