3·2 days agoAnother scam stations run is a “cash price.”
FWIW, if you use a debit card and run it as debit (bypassing Visa or Mastarcard or whatever) then you will get the cash price and don’t need to bring physical money. I’m sure some of the scam is to advertise lower prices when most people will use credit, but they’re also charged a 3% fee from the credit card companies, and they’re not going to eat that cost, so it gets passed to the consumer.
How does the car wash price work, why is it cheaper than without? Is the implication that the car wash is a separate charge all together? If so, pretty disingenuous to waste so much space with lower prices than to say "Car wash $20 & save 20¢ per gallon
banana slug for scale
3·3 days agoBuzzfeed News used to be high quality journalism, funded by ad driven low quality Buzzfeed content. I am not sure if it was financially sustainable since they had to do layoffs, but I think partially that could be because Buzzfeed’s audience moved to Instagram and TikTok and stopped interacting with “Which Game of Thrones character are you?” quizzes.

If the code is good, and doesn’t put unnecessary burden on the reviewer, then that’s great. But when the patches are sloppy or the reviews are overwhelming, it doesn’t help the project, it hinders it.

It’s like he’s actively trying to speed run the collapse of the economy. In his first term, he was able to ride the trajectory Obama set, despite his best efforts, until Covid happened. This time, he’s seeing if he can start a recession before the midterms.
9·6 days agoFWIW, in the UK they removed the gender rule from the lines of succession right before Prince George was born. And even before then, King George was a second child, and Queen Elizabeth was the first child but female, and they still got the crowns.
And notifications if you @ mention them in a child comment, like this: @[email protected]
They have no best to send.
1·20 days agoTheir API documentation being a shit show is an understatement. Nothing is consistent, or complete in the documentation. The forums are a better way to determine what is and isn’t available based on people poking and prodding to actually figure out how the API works.
31·21 days agoYeah, that sucks. This was the best audio i could find of ATC (sorry for IG link) and seems like they immediately realized the fuck up, but the truck kept going.

16·28 days agoThank you, not sure why OP didn’t cross-post the original post here?
Just like Michael Jordan said: “Republicans buy sneakers, too.”
