Thanks, I had already been wondering about this since I couldn’t seem to find good information on getting a 4K stream of the playoff games. Now with the Roku/Fox BS added to it I guess I need to make sure I can at least use Hulu to live stream it. If not, I guess I’ll get a Fubo trial.

TL:DR for my comment - N95/P100 masks are generally better than surgical masks, but if they don’t fit correctly then they don’t provide any more protection than those masks. Surgical masks are fine for ill people who don’t want to infect others, and are better than nothing.

This is why Worker’s Compensation is a compromise, no-fault system. Workers get medical care for workplace injuries (even if they did something unsafe) and employers don’t have to worry about getting sued for every injury (unless they are basically criminally negligent). It’s not perfect, but it’s a lot better that…

The actual injury rate and severity may be better or worse, depending on the specific workplace. In this case, I’d imagine the severity is worse, as I counted at least 20 cases that listed 180 days away from work. OSHA record-keeping rules state that once a case reaches 180 days, that case can be “capped” at that…

In Huntsville, AL (and probably any city near a bunch of rural counties) the biggest dick move is people from other counties coming into town and camping in the left-hand lane on restricted highways going the speed limit (+/- 3 mph). This is especially common on the weekends, but a surprising number of people do it…

Even if he did hire some goon to off Epstein and even if the goon eventually succeeds, you know that he’s never going to pay the goon. He never pays his contractors.

You get a star for going to Land Between the Lakes (LBL). If I could give you extra stars for having common sense, I would.

I lived in Baton Rouge and worked outside NOLA when Katrina hit. There were several factors that caught the local officials off-guard.

I couldn’t see the vest for the jacket sleeves coming all the way down to his fingers. I wear a suit a few times a decade and even I can see that the fit of the whole outfit is terrible.

That’s what I got from my reading of the transcript. The TL;DR seems to be “That’s a really nice tech company with favorable tax status youse gots there. It’d be a shame if someone were to consider it a monopoly, doncha think?”

Because you buy roebucks at Sears, obviously.

I don’t know, but that totally scans. 

Does it allow them to possibly cram a few more people in? Yes. But I believe the bigger issue is that lighter seats mean better fuel economy, which really adds up across the entire fleet.

I use AutoHotKey for this. One small part of my job that was taking up way too much of my time several years ago. So now I have several dozen pre-written sentences & paragraphs that I can insert with hashtags. So #form becomes “Please fill out the form found in our departmental webpage on the company intranet <link>.…

Your second point is easy to address. Billionaires and other 1% type people already fund political campaigns, so just raise their marginal tax rates to ensure they are still paying for the campaigns but no longer have the same leverage to select and influence candidates as much as they do now.

A lot of that “rural lexicon” is perpetuated by the state constitution. I’ve heard it’s one of the most regressive and convoluted government documents ever created. It was created to ensure white supremacy at the cost of local autonomy and needs to be trashed so a new, fair constitution can be drafted. Unfortunately,…

Has this administration decided that in loco parentis is just as inconvenient as every other legal precedent that helps the disadvantaged and decided to ignore it?

I’m in Alabama - there is a sane portion of the population in the state (about 1/3) who would much rather see that money invested in infrastructure and education. Unfortunately we’re outvoted by the 2/3 of the state that think FoxNews is a bastion of centrist journalism and that, while the US military is the best…

Disclaimer, I have family who live in Kentucky and a soft spot for the state. I’m also a person of progressive politics in a very red state.

Yes, many Americans worry about medical debt at some point in their life. Where you live and what employer you have can mitigate the worry to some extent, but a major illness or injury (especially one where you can no longer work) can bankrupt all but the most wealthy families. People without insurance (or with crappy…
