Cars are expensive and necessary in areas without good public transit (read: basically everywhere except a couple of areas in specific cities). Most of us don’t have a year’s salary just sitting in the bank, especially when you’re young.
If you need a car to get to work, you’ll pay what you have to because the alternative is no job which means no home, no healthcare, and no food.
Federation means that instead of one central server like Facebook or google, the service relies on several interoperable servers and you can pick which one you want to sign up with and use.
Email and lemmy are federated. If you want to use email, you can sign up for an account on one of many different servers run by other people or you can even host your own email server. No matter which you choose, you can always email another user regardless of where their account it.
How else would you pretend to be federated besides saying you’re federated when you aren’t?
Apologies, I guess my terminology is incorrect.
What I meant is that I’ve seen people written up for vaping ~2 feet too close to the back door or showing up <5 minutes late or any number of other frivolous things in hopes of avoiding unemployment payments.
Do you have to pay unemployment if they’re fired with cause? Because I’ve definitely seen (and experienced) constructive dismissal over some very petty things.
Mine assumes you’ll take an uber to the nearest train station, which takes 1:10 and $23. Without the uber your only alternative is to walk for 2-3 hours (or cycle if you’re feeling brave).
Oh, and this is Texas so it’ll be boiling hot at least 7 months out of the year.
I have two pieces of sage wisdom friend:
You will spend countless hours of your life fucking. If you ever get the least bit bored, you’re doing life wrong. There is a truly infinite number of ways to accomplish the task at hand.
You have spent exactly 0 hours thus far fucking. Like all things in life, fucking is a skill. It takes practice to be good at it.
But honestly I don’t really remember, it was several years ago now. I can say with certainty that we didn’t have many toys at the time, so it was 90% me, her, and her shitty dorm room.
My record is almost 8 hours friend.
You (or your partner) need to get good. Or maybe don’t because I was fucking sore after that one, it wasn’t really worth it.
Methinks this is BS, I got 7/11 and I’m in my twenties.
It would have been 9, but even in the bad old days I’ve never known a anywhere it was acceptable to just throw little on the floor in a business, regardless of whether it was a cigarette butt or not.
