  • Max, formerly HBO Max, to become HBO Max again somehow

    Jump

  • I've just always defaulted to HBO, especially considering much of their older content still has HBO pop up as a credit.

  • What's a good trade to learn?

  • Electrician here. One thing I will say, in times of inclement economic weather (like now), service plumber stay busy. People are likely not going to not fix a leak, blocked drain, or a heater/AC problem. People will run an extension cord if an outlet stops working or get creative if a light goes out. From what I've seen, many views plumbing as a more pertinent issue to resolve than electrical issues. But, as OP said, I'll take electrical all day over dealing with poo.

    Linemen for the power company will always stay busy regardless of the economy, and it pays stupid well. The guys in my town clear $200k with storm shifts.

  • guys what the heck theyre putting micro chips in the cheese and using blockchains to track the micro chips

  • But I only had two marijuanas, I was told that was ok by the cool guy on the corner.

  • Ye song glorifying Hitler gets millions of views on X while other platforms struggle to remove it

  • Eh more like he needs to be taken out to pasture.

  • This is a cool idea.

    Jump

  • It goes both ways though. I have a corporation for my contracting business to shield possible frivolous lawsuits from unscrupulous people. I do my best to screen clients and not work for wackos, but that's not necessarily enough to protect myself and family.

  • How does Netflix, HBO and other services get their subtitles? Are they now using AI to help translate?

    Jump

  • Of all the big services, Netflix subtitles are notoriously bad though. Like missing entire sentences or just flat out wrong.

  • Kids are short-circuiting their school-issued Chromebooks for TikTok clout

    Jump

  • Again, that was the style and not the exact ones we had, but yeah they were all fixed position, however ours weren't too bad. I dunno, I don't remember anyone complaining much, I was on the taller side of my peers and fit fine while I recall even the smaller kids were alright too. Id wager a big reason they were chosen was so kids couldn't balance on the back legs, fall back and crack dome. They were great for cracking your back!

  • Not even that, but they are simple and repairable. I remember we had these sleigh-style desks (same idea except the seat was one-piece molded plastic) that were a total of four parts (two rails, the seat and the desk top) aside from bolts/hardware, and they had a graveyard of parts to replace pieces as needed. And those desk were tough as all hell.

  • Gas prices could top $8 in California by 2026 due to refinery closures, report warns

    Jump

  • Eh it always turns into a touchy subject. Like yeah we needed to transition away from burning fuel yesterday, but at the same time we still need a viable path forward for people to move themselves and good around, which hasn't really gone far. Yes EVs are a good solution and they're improving at a good pace, but they don't cover every use case yet, which is where we need to focus. At the same time, we also need to be leaning into building out public transit networks that render most personal transport needs unnecessary.

    For instance, we need a viable EV for OTR transport, as well solutions for trains and ocean/air shipping. We also need better solutions for contractors and the like, as well as vehicles that can achieve longer range.

  • And when are those rail projects getting built? Oh yeah, they keep stalling out.

    I'm all for reducing car dependency, but we need viable alternatives before, not as an afterthought.

  • I've thought it'd be pretty nifty to replace the carpool lanes with rail transit, but then Fast track/The Toll Roads wouldn't be able to keep up their Lexus lanes.

    Jump

  • The idea was to transition everyone to EVs. The problem is that not everyone can afford to just up and buy a new vehicle, and it's naive to think people can get by without one, especially in much of CA and the rest of the US where public transit absolutely blows. They're putting the cart before the horse and not giving a shit about people who aren't the monopoly man, as is tradition.

  • My town has had the price pegged at about $5.50/gal (diesel) for the last couple years, despite fuel trending closer to $4.25/gal lately elsewhere.

  • I'm with you, my original point was that I wasn't aware of any rips that fot OPs criteria, and that they might be better off doing that legwork themselves.

  • The clueless people are out there among us

  • No worries. I was actually surprised when I found that out, considering there are plenty of other miniscule things the code is very specific about.
