Perhaps I could have included a list of other places as an example that can refuse you for financial reasons. It would have helped for people not familiar with the system..

From my post: "Many people would go to the ER for non-ER reasons because it was the only way to get treatment when you didn't have the money to pay"

Seems pretty obvious that I meant the ER...

As far as I know, Hospitals are not allowed to refuse you care; no matter what your finances are, they have to help you. Many people would go to ER for non-ER reasons because it was/is the only way for them to get treatment. (Because other medical centers can refuse you.)

The hospitals will try to get the money from you however they can and they do offer payment plans based on income. Ultimately, though, due many? The debt gets discharged to a debt collection agency that harasses you incessantly for 7 years until it gets discharged from your record.

It destroys your credit (an arbitrary number that every citizen has that supposedly shows how trustworthy they are and how much they are likely to pay you if you loan them money) until it drops off after the statute of limitations (7-10 years, depending on the state).

Solid answer to a different question 😉

At least the bit where they can parkour over the fence is definitely intended. Not sure about the lava room hole... but honestly, it probably wouldn't have survived this long if it bothered Tango / was truly unintentional.

Dawn Soap, Hot Water, and on anything with cracks that I feel like the sponge won't reach well, I add salt or sugar as a "scrub"! Never had an issue ❤️

Note that I prepare raw food (including chicken) for one of my dogs.

Except that that is a back pedal on their part and their FAQ plainly says they actually have no way of tracking what is a new install versus a re-install; which is why they decided to count all installs to begin with.

Clearly without consulting anyone with a modicum of common sense.

It's also possible its a move to deliberately piss of the customer base, so they can "back off" and implement a solution that still satisfies them, but looks like they let the "customer" (mostly) win.

For example: "We will charge $.20 for over 200K installs!" Backpedal: "We will charge $.05 for only the initial install after 500K installs!"

Pretty sure there are many documented instances of exactly this occurring, especially in the game dev industry unfortunately. (The goal was never the first offer, but rather to overshadow the real goal.)

It is exactly what Unity means; they have doubled down on the clarifications. The precise point is to charge the developer for any install a user makes once they earn a (paltry) $200K.

It's not rocket science to see that this is a very bad, very abusive idea and its targeted to hurt indie developers the most (as larger studios like EA would be on the enterprise plan and therefore on the hook for only 1/20th of the same usage).

Some simple math says that you would have to uninstall and reinstall a $5 game 20 times to completely nullify the earnings from your purchase.

It's surprisingly easy to rack up installs; between multiple devices, uninstalls for bug fixing / addressing, the OS breaking it, modded installs having to be reset, making space for other games, refreshing a device... and so on. And that's not even accounting for bad actors actively trying to damage a company.

Because the city would have to pay for the loss of income from those meters. CPM did a stupidly good job tying up their benefits nicely; if income drops for any reason, Chicago has to pay to make up for it.

From the Canine Competition universe... confirming fortune spent on doggos. I definitely did not spend 4 figures on entries fees for 3 dogs in a multitude of sports in one weekend... ~

Thank you! ❤️ I don't have the means to host my own instance, but once I do a bit more research and understand Lemmy better, I will definitely be making some pet related communities ❤️

Trains don't allow dogs as passengers :(

You are not but your situation is what I'd like to migrate to, I think. Hotels have gotten even worse... many that I would use before are now charging $20 to $30 per night per dog with a 2 dog cap. Not feasible for me anymore 😞 😓

I would like to trains be more reasonable - even if not every 2 minutes. I'd be okay with 30 minutes, if I could get on one with the dogs in tow 😞 It is not pleasant driving 5-12 hours and a train would let me rest.

We have to have a set at the Airbnb and a set at the show; it's much easier to transport extra crates than it is to break them down and haul them back and forth every morning and evening (and takes a distinct amount of time to do). Why 10 and not 8 then? I'm loaning a pair to a friend coming to the same show!

Bummer! I was afraid that might be the answer. I was struggling to come up with anything on my own because none of the public transport allow dogs 😞

While this is neat looking, I don't think they are intended to do 300 miles in a day on highways... could be a cool solution for local though!

That's fair, and something I can understand the switch to! A couple of my friends do rent larger vehicles for the longer shows. ❤️

I would love to see shows occur more locally 😞 I usually drive 4 or 5 hours minimum.

Ha... I use Voyager and had -no clue- that Lemmy supported either one of these features (previously wef wef). Maybe turn it off in your client, or use Voyager?

None! I haven't actually watched it 😅 It does amuse me that it exists, but I spend waaaaay too much time training dogs to actually watch a movie about it.
