Sure, but this puts the wage cap at like $63/hour. That's ridiculously good for a blue collar job. I've been in the same field for around 16 years and I'd be ecstatic if I were making half that amount, and my job requires a lot of certifications and ongoing training hours to stay certified.

That's over $130,000/year. Plus, they hit their cap after just 6 years. I couldn't imagine making that much after just 6 years somewhere. They did a great job. Laborers everywhere should be making money like this, instead of the people sitting in chairs with lumbar support complaining that the ac is two degrees warmer than what they'd like while standing next to the corporate keureg coffee machine.

They're actually required to give 85% of everything back, so they give back most of it. It seems like Florida is becoming too much of a hassle to insure, though. Some companies have pulled out of florida.

It's pretty much completely impossible for a third party candidate to ever win. You have to get 270 (just over half) of all the electoral votes. If any third party made a huge amount of headway it'd still be almost impossible to take enough votes from the repubs or democrats to hit 270, and anything less than 270 means the House gets to decide who becomes president. Obviously, the house filled with democrats and Republicans, would never select the third party candidate.

Use them at no benefit to them. Obviously, don't buy yt premium.

I use Grayjay. Get it from the grayjay website and sideload it instead of through the apk store. Updates come quicker. It gives you commercial free YouTube, pretty much all the premium features, and let's you download vids.

T mobile already shaping the hell out of my internet. If I download a Netflix episode of a show without my vpn on, it could take like 15 minutes. With my vpn on it takes like 1 minute.

For real. Fuck samsung so hard. I can't even get an oem replacement battery for my N20 Ultra. (I bought it used in early 2021). Managed to find one (battery) that appeared new and genuine from ebay about 2 years ago, but im going to need another in the next year or so, because there's no replacement phone with a pen and a micro sd card slot beyond this one. Almost no phones with just the SD card slot.

I'll see myself out.

Xbox should just go straight pc game setup for the living room. A mass produced windows (I know, blegh) pc with a pretty solid gpu and Xbox controllers. Basically the steam deck treatment for the living room.

I guess it's pretty cheap to run stealth ads like this on lemmy, since you only need like 20 up votes to get on everyone's front page.
