Yeah, no. The base price will be whatever price it is now (probably higher), then price will increase during busy times. They have zero incentive to make it cheaper, ever.

Here's a million Lemmy bucks

Inspired from the original Reddit silver, of course.

Reddit was popularized especially for mobile mostly due to third party apps. Reddit didn't have a mobile app for the longest time for some reason or another, so rif, Baconreader, Apollo, etc. All brought people in.

Reddit is biting the hand that feeds, and they'll probably get away with it. They wouldn't even be where they are without those apps. Traitors.

No - drone light shows weren't used in cargo cults

Sure, but automatic shufflers are getting more and more common. Not to mention, you have to have a fairly large starting pot to have a hope of making a decent profit. Then even if you do everything right, you still have a relatively high chance of going in the red.

I'm going to 36 weeks of military training that will also be a substantial pay cut from my civilian career, but worth it in the long run as it'll be the necessary experience to switch my civilian career to my field of interest. Not looking forward to the training, but I'll be in such a better spot once I'm finished. Looking forward to that!

/r/resume was great, as well /r/cscareeradvice, and really any career centric subs. Being able to bounce career questions off of others is an absolute gold mine of information that only serves to forward the field.

It doesn't even matter, Elvis fired them, slandered them on Twitter, and now he's upset that a different company hired them??? Are they supposed to just stay unemployed?

Don't forget, you, not OP, are also taking a risk. We're all on the road, it's fucking disgusting that people will do this instead of just study for a little bit.

Guake is awesome too

I've posted this a couple times in similar threads on Reddit, and never really got any speculation. Of course nobody can have a definitive answer, but I'd be super interested to hear what anyone else thinks.

So I had just gotten out of Army basic training about a month prior, and had my first drill at my first unit. It was a pretty long drill, about 5 days, so I was already pretty out of it, and not to mention nervous as hell after meeting my chain of command, etc.

Come the final day of drill we get out really late, like the latest allowable time, 11:59 or some crazy shit. I lived about 2.5 hours away from my unit, and had ROTC PT at 6am the morning after. I was dead exhausted.

I started to leave and got on the turnpike and about 10 minutes into this drive I could already feel the sleep hitting me hard, and I had to pee really bad. I found the first rest station and decided to stop there, pee, and grab a coffee, and maybe a meal. I dragged myself from the car into the station, and walked in a haze towards the bathrooms. Within like, 10 seconds, I realized there was a woman at the sink washing her hands. I was confused for about 5 seconds, then realized my mistake, turned right around and went for the male bathrooms.

I decided to take a stall to sit down and relax for a couple minutes as the rest station was pretty dead. In fact, there was nobody else in the bathroom. I didn't give it a second thought, and sat down. About 2-3 minutes later I saw 4 sandled feet standing infront of my stall door. Not slightly near the door, but - get this - almost feet sticking under the gap, toes directly facing me. These were not children's feet either, for sure two grown men.

My heart starts pounding out of my chest. I wait 5 minutes more, and they're STILL standing right there. What the FUCK is going?!!!

I try to calm myself, take a couple deep breaths and allow myself to think straight. By now it's been about 10 minutes of them standing right there. I can hear them speaking in Spanish about "this man right here" though my Spanish isn't that great. I decide to text my dad my location, and tell him to call the police if I don't respond in 45 minutes.

15 minutes now.

20

30

...

After about 40 minutes they FINALLY decide to leave. I don't know where they might be waiting, probably outside the bathroom entrance. I text my dad to postpone another 20 minutes. I wait even longer until I hear another person walk in with a child like pitter patter of footsteps with him. They speak a bit, and it's very audibly a man and his son.

Without even thinking about how me being targeted could put them in danger, I use the opportunity of witnesses being present to bolt from the stall. I didn't care about washing my hands, and SUPER WALKED out of the rest station to my car, called my dad to ensure him I was fine, and told him what happened, then went on my way.

I still don't know what the hell that was. Was I being targeted for "snooping" in the girl's bathroom? Was a big supporter of the military about to shake my hand? Was I being targeted for being in uniform?

I'll never know.

I'd be really interested to know the source of whatever stats say that. I mean, it's not like people actually stopped drinking, so why would domestic abuse "disappear"? That also totally implies that domestic abuse almost entirely happens because of alcohol.

With how much political/financial influence/bribery was behind prohibition, I'd totally bet statistics are skewed in favor of prohibition.

It's about how I applied to an associate engineer position, made it through 3 rounds of interviews, then got rejected only to find out they hired a senior engineer with over a decade of experience at AWS. /rant

I'd lobby to make political bribery illegal/actually enforced, then subsequently get assassinated mysteriously.

Very true, pretty indicative of the whole industry though. I'm glad I'm already in it, especially in a good position as a software engineer, but after $1k spent in certifications, ~600 resumes sent out, and completely revamping my LinkedIn, etc. It almost feels like you really do have to have worked at FAANG as a senior engineer to even be noticed.

It's all way too gatekeepy as a whole.

Next reddit will get the paid blue checkmark! I can't wait!
