they could demand us sellers supplier invoices. wow if they did that they would have entire supply chain info with sources and profit info and everything. now that I say that, I'm almost surprised they didn't use this as an excuse to get that info. glad it's canceled

“We’re citizens. That’s what I kept saying. We’re citizens.”

sounds like face eating.

it would be fairly easy for items that Amazon sells themselves and imports. for items made here out of some or all imported materials it gets much more complicated. for other sellers it would be too much to ask of them to figure out something that will get muddy real quick.

think about a can opener where the steel is Canadian, formed here, with grips made in china because they are the only ones doing that kind of plastic, and its all assembled here. the price is gonna go up, but how is Amazon or the mfr gonna list the tarrifs?

how about a made in the usa trump hat (yes there are some) but the fabric is from Bangladesh because we don't make fabric anymore? how does that get tariff listed?

everyones usa col will be going way up. do you include any raises for your workers as a cost of the tariff? this ones a stretch I know.

Amazon is also international obv. so once that can opener ships to Canada, hows that get listed after that?

I think the term photoshopped is where it fell apart. it implies faked. it wasn't faked, it was someone noting on an image their interpretation of his finger tattoos. morons couldn't tell that the notes weren't part of the image itself.

Have you ever tried to convince an unmedicated, manic schizophrenic that... the things they are saying just fundamentally do not make sense, at a basic grammatical level, that their mind invents things that did not happen?

I haven't. How's it go?

nests are so dumb for a smart thermostat. why does it seem like a smart thermostat is so hard for companies to make? I got a levoit one after ebaying my nest and its a ton better but still not as good as I would imagine they can be.

yeah, the cleaning is one thing they mention they have. alone with others

[–] Willy 1 points 1 week ago

the article covers that.

Untraceable airplanes (self.nostupidquestions)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by Willy to c/[email protected]
 

Hi, I’ve just listened to about 10 aircraft go over my house. It’s not unusual that I have aircraft go over my house. I’ve sometimes even had fighters go over my house. I live in the most secure airspace in the United States (I’m not allowed to fly a $50 drone) and when I use apps to track what type of plane or helicopters are buzzing me, they never show up… they don’t show up on flight radar or adsbexchane even with government filters turned on where they used to intermittently show up. something just happened.

Gantt in linux (self.linux)
submitted 9 months ago by Willy to c/[email protected]
 

i’m planning a road trip and wanted to plan it out using a Gantt chart. I searched the repositories and did not find anything. Does anyone have any recommendations? (I actually am fun at parties)

 

I'd like more instrumental music. those are my two favorites. who should I listen to it those are your favorites too?

 

Last night, I watched ‘The Conners’ (it's on after Jeopardy here, and it's not so bad now that Barr is gone), and I can't stop thinking about it. Hopefully, you saw it, too, but it was bothersome. It started with a 90+ YO woman getting her identity stolen. Fair enough. Then, the family thought that debit would be their issue and staged an “intervention.” This is where I think TV needs to be more educational and should have explained that no, they were not going to “be left with a mountain of debt.” Instead, they find out she wasn't being defrauded and had made the purchases herself. Here is where it jumped the shark. This gave them the idea, from experience with Rosanne's death, that credit card debt usually gets wiped when someone dies. They go on a fraudulent spending spree, and near the end of the episode, they find out the credit company will investigate the issue.

I guess my point for the conversation is that there are so many tucking crazy loopholes in this episode it was almost anti-educational and pushed an agenda with no reason. I understand a lot of scripted shows are like this, such as Law and Order (except the original, sort of), but this seemed over the top.
