It’s not too late yet, just saying. (Not my rendering).

They could put it right in front of the driver, too. And if you move it around, it’d direct the car in a similar direction.

Bad drivers have been running into the backs of street sweepers long before cars ever had “Autopilot”. I think the new rule moving forward should be if a car has a steering wheel it is your fault when your car hits something.

I realize the scrutiny is targeting the company, but let’s remember their primary clientele are people with bad credit. Circumstances will vary as to why people wound up with low credit scores—and some percentage of low credit folk are there because they made bad decisions (as opposed to the responsible people who had…

IMO what you’ll find is that people this would aim to help will quickly turn those refurbished cars into crap at a least as often as the default rate. Some people will be helped but I think there will be such a large proportion of disheartening work it will be difficult to keep people doing it long term. 

While doing penance in summer school 1969 I was constrained by the rule that only let you miss TWO days of summer session. Having already lost one with feeling crappy, I was up against losing two to attend the 1969 Watkins Glen Can-Am/six hour FIA race. I needed to pass the classes but, hey the GLEN!!! Solution? Use…

No, the END result (when you actually file your taxes) is exactly the same as your normal income. Withholding isn’t your actual tax (hell, you can magically change your “tax rate” just by changing your W4 throughout the year) its a security measure to ease the burden on collecting tax and to make it less impactful on…

Ouch. Facts do matter. And yours are off.

Lol, I don’t think you read your own link or understand it.

This isn’t true. While withholding might be higher (a $1k bonus would have a 25% federal tax withholding), income is income. That person, if they were in the 12% tax bracket, would get money back when the file their tax return.

Bonuses are taxed at whatever rate your final tax bracket will be, you are probably thinking of lottery winnings.

Another day, another company announcing they will be increasing comp for their employees because of the tax cuts, another outrage post from Splinter about how it’s not enough.

There is obviously a lot of very bad (if not non-existent) planning and decision making that went into this guy being in the position he’s in now, as in no drivers license, no real plan of how to support himself (not to even go into the girlfriend issue), no end-goal beyond “not wanting a 9-5 lifestyle”, and, most…

I’m not roasting him it’s just that he had the chance of bailing out before hitting the bottom. I mean, how silly can you be? Even lost his GF and GFs take a lot before they leave you.

The “Instagram model” economy is an interesting beast. How people fail to see that it’s all marketing and these are paid professional “wanderes” or “fitness models” is a bit beyond me. Then again, I’m a cynical asshole, so I assume everybody is lying.

Really, you’re way up on your moral high horse I can’t even see you from here... have you considered there are people needier than him? Who for some reason though not their fault are on the skids nonetheless?

This is the most millenial thing I’ve read all day.

I’m guessing the only reason his parents aren’t bailing him out is that they thought this was a stupid idea.

I don’t think too many people really appreciate how much skill and initiative is required to survive as a rootless/homeless person. Thinking you can just hit the road and survive on odd jobs indefinitely is how you end up in situations like this.

Believe it or not, I achieve the same results with my cast iron griddle/grill and my large cast iron skillet. I put the griddle/grill on the top rack while I preheat the oven at the highest temp, with the cast iron skillet turned upside down (so the flat bottom is facing upward) on the middle rack. Once the oven’s hot…
