I am on lifelong disability which means I get a guaranteed amount of money each month for life.

No landlords will touch me, a person with a GUARANTEED INCOME.

However, if you have a job, that you can get fired from or quit the next day, they'll accept you. Blows my fucking mind.

Btw, for anyone wondering, if I lose my job, the government will step in and give me money for my disability. If I have a job, they don't give me money. If I have a shit job where I make a couple hundred per month, they'll cover the difference. I don't mooch off the government, but my point is that I'm lucky enough to have a safety net, and landlords are so dumb they run away from it.

Bought a Brother printer. Opened up "printers" on Windows 11, it picked up my printer wirelessly, I clicked "add" and it was done.

No garbage software or anything.

So printers definitely do just work on Windows.

And if it's porn? Priceless.

Ya, I am allowed to post my opinion. I don't think people who refuse a vaccine that can help save others should be allowed to receive a vaccine that benefits only them.

If you're upset, you're part of the problem. Not my fault. If you don't want to see my comments, which I am free to post, block me.

In fact, don't worry about it. I will block you, because your reply is insane. Literally complaining to me because I posted my opinion, and then calling me intellectually dishonest. Nutters.

Pixel's brand identity was two tone backs.

Google slowly shrunk it until it stopped existing in 2019 with the Pixel 4. No idea why. It was iconic, and no one else was doing it.

Because it's a non-issue that affects an insanely small portion of people, but people love to shit on Pixel.

There's also no proof as to why it happens. People speculate it's the cold weather + warm pocket that causes the metal to shrink/expand causing the cracking, but there's zero proof. For all we know these people drop their phone 50 times per day, weakened the glass, and "oh no, it just exploded out of no where!!!

Literally me. I've been locked inside since 2020 because I had a double lung transplant and COVID will most likely cause my lungs to reject, and I die.

Assholes refusing to put a damn n95 mask on has pretty much thrown my life away. My transplanted lungs wont last forever. My final years are locked indoors because a fucking mask is political.

And all evidence didn’t show it was safe. There were risks. In the case of the vaccine itself, iirc, the risks of serious side effect were less than the risk of serious complication from covid.

Just wondering how you justify saying garbage like that when people died, have serious heart conditions, taste problems, balancing issues, etc. from catching COVID?

Don’t DERAIL this conversation about a completely different vaccine.

I was replying to a question. Please follow the context thread, or go away.

Do it. All creators I like will finally jump ship, because there's 0 reason to post about your new video, merch launch, etc. to only paying members.

You're honestly turning this into a weird negative thing? Better security by having two people review the code vs just one is a bad thing to you?

Alright.

Not in Canada, where everyone is blocking news because they don't want to pay our journalists.
