Which is totally not relevant to the conversation, which is what an ad hominem is, which is what the other person was saying. You only said “the redditor” as an insult.
Yes my name has reddit in it, but it also has wanderer lol, because i have been wandering since. I wouldn’t expect you to get it though.
Cmon buddy. You went from saying the US and Canada are the same shade of grey and not comparable to europe. Then you said “comparable to UK maybe”. And now we’re arguing what defines europe and what amount of weeks defines maternity leave.
This is called moving the goalpost, and youve done it enough lmao.
Go away now, you aren’t making arguments in good faith
And you’re using “the redditor” not as a toxic ad hominem right?
I’m not a redditor anymore, i left the very day RIF stopped working.
The rules are pretty clear. It’s okay to say someone is acting like an idiot, and it’s not ok to call someone an idiot… i dont necessarily agree, but them are the rules
When they say they “cringe” at what the person said, it means they feel second hand embarrassment. It’s saying theyre embarassing. Is that some toxic ad hominem that should get you banned?
So now youre going to dismiss everything you said, and make a new point.
Tell us, oh wise one, why what I just said doesn’t compare to other European countries except the UK? Tell me why I don’t understand these other countries I’ve lived? The other comparisons here were France. Tell.me the democratic differences between france and canada? Germany? Spain? Italy?
Or just ridicule yourself again and make a different point.
If youre thinking about sweden and finland, that’s not “most european countries”.
Ok try not to trip over backpedaling there.
You said you cringed at comparing the US to Canada because it’s the same shade of grey. It’s not. That’s what we’re talking about, it doesn’t matter that you agree with the post in general.
I didn’t need to research, because I’m not an ignorant idiot who speaks about countries they know nothing about. You on the other hand, could have done some research before making shit up. There’s literally a 20 minute educational video in my link, watch it, that’s considered researching this information…
Even if not in direct comparison, they aren’t the same shade of grey at all. Canada is comparable to Europe, not the US. And yes they are all late stage capitalistic nations, congrats on that astute observation. It doesn’t mean you aren’t wrong
Canada is very different from the US in many ways relevant to this post.
Canada doesn’t have “at will” work. Medicine is purchased by the government with immense buying power. Canada has anti-hate laws that supercede free speech, and still have the right to protest and assemble (which has basically been removed in the US). Women’s health is protected, and hopefully soon they will offer free hygiene products for women. Maternity/paternity leave is protected. No abortion bans here. Weed is legal, and harm reduction therapy is a common thing.
I could go on but i feel like you just wanted to cringe at people who don’t think the US is a proper “developed” country.
You are also wrong about the economy being controlled by a few. When there is actually only a few, like dictators, they come and take your entire crops for almost nothing, which is an unthinkable tax rate for democracies. You don’t get education, and you don’t get highways or drinking water. These things are offered to you because the government needs productive citizens to make money. It’s The rules for rulers. Democracies are complicated and full of corruption specifically because it takes many people to do anything, not a few.
Tl;dr It takes 2 seconds of research to see you are wrong on every point.
“Anyways, we’re announcing layoffs”
Won’t anyone think of the shareholders!
After his arguments failed to convince bylaw officers, Ruck took his case to court. Legal precedent supports naturalised gardening in Ontario, where in 1996 a court ruled that Sandy Bell, a Toronto gardener, had the right to express her environmental beliefs through gardening, overturning a fine issued to her under the city’s weeds and grass bylaw.
But Ruck, who represented himself, lost his case on procedural grounds after arguing that the city had applied the bylaw unfairly and arbitrarily. Now on the hook for the municipality’s legal bills of $6,000 (£3,450), he has filed an appeal.
Damn that sucks
The truck is not really washable. They will absolutely fuck it up cleaning that out. It can’t even resist rain.
I was just pumping gas the other day, and while I’m at it there’s this cellphone speaker music that starts really loudly, like the phone is at 400% audio.
Motherfucking screen started playing an ad I couldn’t skip. Soon theyre just going to loop audible ads everywhere we go, in public spaces.
Since then I’ve avoided this brand of gas station and affiliates, but I won’t be able to hide for long.
I wander what it means
I saved 50k on my house because some private company was hired to do an inspection and they noted a 40 page report with all sorts of shit that wasn’t really important.
Nobody wanted to buy it after that. Luckily I build houses so I know what to look for and cut him a deal to get rid of it. Aside from having an electrician come in to double check all the aluminum wiring connections (and making plans to replace the aluminium wires), not one thing in those 40 pages should have affected the price of the house.
Depends on where you live.
The bank will often send an inspector for a loan, but it’s literally him just walking around and validating there is a house and it’s not in shambles. He’ll look at things like the roof from the outside and when it was redone, but isn’t going to hop into your crawlspace to look for signs of water damage.
Then you have the “private” inspection company that you can pay to check your home for yourself. These companies are know to cost a lot of money, often detailing things they can’t be sure are “risks”. They’ll go in the crawlspace and note all sorts of things.
On my house the expensive private inspection said “the roof here is kinda saggin and there’s a bump there, it could be anything”. In the same report he accidentally shows a picture from under the roof where you can see there was a repair and some extra framing, causing the small “bump” that is purely aesthetic. Didn’t mention that part.
Getting someone to look at it post purchase is likely going to be much cheaper, and I’m definitely not recommending people don’t get inspections when buying houses if they don’t know what they’re doing.
It’s simple. Game companies made a killing during the pandemic with money meant to sustain the economy. Now the economy isn’t so good and debt is expensive, so it’s time to cut headcount as fast as possible to book record profits. Same for most tech companies, hell companies in general.
Then they’ll start whining it’s hard to make money these days and they need a tax payer backed boost to get people working again “for the benefit of the economy”. They are holding it hostage, and the politicians are playing into it for personal gain.
Needless to say it’s not getting better any time soon.
The switch is 7 years old, the deck is barely 2 years old. There no need for a deck 2.
You think Sony forgot PSN isnt available in all countries?
They 100% knew, and didnt expect there would be enough people in those regions to cause a fuss.
They were gonna pull helldivers from steam in all countries without PSN, and that’s what they did. They didn’t care for reimbursements once the game got popular.
They just didn’t expect it to be very popular, which is probably why AH agreed to it in the first place
Shiit so many comments here.
