I can never go back, I can see why torrenting is so popular in Canada
  • It isn't free, but I use a seedbox for running my Plex server. That way none of the media downloading is done on our local internet, all the ISP should see is that we are streaming data from a Plex server. They'd have no knowledge on if we own that data or not. I'm sure Jellyfin can also easily be run from a seedbox

    Having a seedbox is also helpful because our internet has a pretty low upload speed, which would make watching anything outside the house a massive pain.

  • Put the fish down.
  • Highly agree. I love fishkeeping, so finding a dude that likes it too would be great... as long as they semi-understand what they're talking about. No tropical fish without heaters, or tanks that aren't properly cycled for example...

  • U.S. government spent more on health care in 2022 than six countries with universal health care combined
  • I have to say, being on Medicaid through college showed just how true this is. Being able to put my health first, rather than worry about if I could afford a doctor visit (or an ER visit), was great. The peace of mind of knowing that I would pay $0 for ANYTHING medical lead to me putting my health first.

    The one potential charge you could get was for going to the ER for something deemed a "non-emergency." Even then I didn't worry about whether I could go to the ER after whiffing it off my longboard and smacking my head into the pavement because... well, the non-emergency charge was $8.

  • There is no such thing as "unskilled labor"
  • Tell this to all the "entry level" positions that wanted 3-5 years of experience. Searching for a CS job with just a degree was terrible.

    That's not to say I disagree with you though. Entry level should be the actual entry point into a field

  • There is no such thing as "unskilled labor"
  • So during not-summer who is stocking shelves? My guess to your answer is that high schoolers will, but then who will work fast food restaurants during school hours?

    Too many jobs are considered "entry level". If people used them as stepping stone jobs, the companies would cease to function properly.

    For example my father thinks that all fast food positions except Manager are entry level. But I can guarantee you he'd be pissed if only the manager was working in the mornings when he wants coffee.

  • Big one
  • Even with an MRI showing that my mom's breast cancer has likely metastasized to her spine, she has to wait 2 weeks to see the Orthopedist. Just for the consultation, not 2 weeks for surgery. America is fucking bonkers on wait times. Imagine being in debilitating pain with tens of lesions in your spine and being told you have to just deal with it for 2 weeks before you even know what it is for sure.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • I wonder if it restores removed body parts in their prior condition or in their optimal condition. Because some organs are removed for a good reason.

    And I'd be mad as fuck if I had to go through a hysterectomy again.
