Do you see my downvotes on here? Are you sure that the votes that aren't sticking are all on lemmy.world? There are a literal fuck ton of instances now and you don't always notice which one you are responding via.
And if the imaginary numbers mean anything, I'll revert and upvote you, that wasn't a statement about your post here, they were a test to see if they stick and to help diagnose.
Luxury isn't about price point. And last I checked, you couldn't get a new tesla for 40k.
Saying that tesla is luxury is like saying that McDonald's is fine dining.
Do yourself a favor and look up the comparable pricing for the ioniqs versus tesla. Tesla has always been overpriced (from factory) for what it offered.
You definitely need the pump, the best thing about koi or gold fish is that they grow to the size of the environment. You also need to make sure that you have enough algae helping to oxygenate the water (for others reading, not necessarily you in particular).
It can take some work to get things just right but once it starts maintaining itself (for the most part) it becomes it's own little world.
Some closing advice for those who live in the part of the world where it gets and stays at or below freezing for weeks or months on end, don't mess with it when it freezes over. Turn off the pump and leave it alone, the fish will hibernate and will wake up when it's warmer. This means keeping kids away from it that may want to poke at the ice.
We should stop voting for people who promise to dismantle said services. We also really need to move towards a basic income setup instead of having all of the hoops and paperwork for people to prove they are eligible for whatever it is. In the USA people going on disability are always denied even if they are a paraplegic. We would spend so much less money and other resources if we just made it available to everyone with no proof of eligibility needed.
Android has gotten really good at transfering all data via a normal move to a new phone. What I would do is plug your phone into a pc and backup everything you can see via file browser, that way if it somehow doesn't make it to the new phone you still have it. Plus you will still have the current phone to get things from if/when you need it.
Only the idiots like him. Guaranteed he doesn't fit in with the ultra wealthy, he is likely seen as a tool literally and figuratively by the people who have been able to keep and grow their generational wealth where as he lost his familial wealth multiple times over.
That's the difference between us. I've always found a way to get by and any work place or so called boss that wasn't worthy of my time or energy, didn't get that investment.
Maybe I was just raised different but I am more than willing to tell someone to fuck off if/when its needed, it of course starts more diplomatically than a literal middle finger but I was never afraid to escalate to an actual "fuck off, I'm out of here" when it was needed. It's one reason why I work for myself, I only have myself and my bills to answer to.
There is a growing movement towards unions and other forms of collective bargaining. If you want to keep being afraid of your own shadow, that's fine but don't you dare do others the disservice of pushing them away from taking control of their own destinies.
They used to have a decently priced unlimited ticket that you could use to see the country during summer break. Get on/off the train whenever/wherever you want.
You need to find the right stores/brands to support.
2 examples that my family stand behind and preaches from the mountain tops.
Costco. They as a retailer stand behind all of their products and take virtually everything back with little to zero questions. Pharmacy and optical is worth the price of admission alone. Make sure you have storage for some of the stuff you end up buying but if you are smart about it, it's worth the run every 4-6+ weeks.
Duluth. Purveyor of fine clothing and unlike carhartt, Duluths stuff actually stands up to being used and abused. If you watch for deals and clearance you can get some damn good clothes at a decent price. Bonus for the female shaped beings out there, Duluth is the only one we have found that has womens clothing with actual pockets, including cargos.
Holy shit. Why did I read that. There is zero science in that and it's nothing but religious, woo woo, bullshit. That domain and this user are definitely getting added to my block list.
Actually, that would make it even easier, in theory. You'd meet more of your coworkers and would be able to more easily spread the word and discuss pros/cons, etc.
Or just call everyone dude.
