Any suggestions to a variant of "the front fell off" for this event?

I think everybody in most jobs/positions should have the opportunity to learn and grow. This is "just" a moderator and some leeway should be given, IMHO.

If it happens again by the mod, and if it becomes a "regular" thing by several mods, then the guillotine should be used frequently and without trials.

Well.... It's not "Norway has a map of murders", but a newspaper in Norway has made a map of murders in Norway.

IKEA furniture are not bad at all. 40 years ago or was a standing joke, but the quality has quintupled since then.

You can of course buy the cheapest of cheap in IKEA and it will be less comfortable than the more expensive ones, but couches from IKEA are good.

Hell, most other furniture brands delivers their furniture flat packed as well. It's just easier to build IKEA since they have gotten the instructions down to a t.

When I saw the story about furniture doctor here the other day it just seemed so dumb. Buy flat packed furniture sand assemble it on your living room. Or get the furniture doctor to assemble it, then you don't have to cut it open with power tools....

In short - IKEA and Wasa ftw!!

It's not stealing, it's using "cheat codes"

They believe that life has cheat codes that only they know about.

Or some other middleeastern ppl in the magic land of of 'Srael knows about it, and the sov city ppl have figured it out and wants to be rich as well.

Or "I'm smart but not rich. How come they over the are rich but dumb? Makes no sense. Except CHEAT CODES"

In Norway having loads of credit cards is negative for getting a house loan as it is potential debt that goes against your payment ability for the house loan.

Meaning we do have a credit score system for getting loans and more stuff on various credit solutions, but credit cards works against larger loans.

Which can be a pain in the ass when you want to buy a house/apartment and have credit cards that might deny you the last bit of money to win the bidding war...

I'm sure the artist intended to be smart and use metric time as something silly.

The problem is he used regular time.

60 * 60 * 24=86400=>86.4 kseconds where k stands for 1000. Like kilo for 1000 grams. Kilometer for 1000 meters etc.

The comic doesn't make sense...

Early termination fees are not that horrible. They can give you a monthly cost where some of the costs for installing it might be distributed over they contact period. Fine and ok

But i should still be able to cancel my contract without jumping through 11 loops and queues.

If you sign up for a given contract, that's what you have agreed upon. It sucks if you only have one option and they can set a ridiculous price. So if you want to regulate pricing, that's a different matter. Cancelling is something else altogether.

I hope it was a genious piece of code that was miles ahead of what it replaced.

And still it got rejected 😄

Just curious, you do know that such a rule would eventually reduce the human race to nill? Natural and unnatural deaths requires 2,X to remain at same level.

Btw, you should watch the British series Utopia

This is the quote:

"I don't see any scenario where they're responsible for less than 10% of the value destruction, so around $4 billion."

In my head, he is comparing the minimum size of ADLs value reduction to be 10% or 4 billion. 10% of 44 billion is 4,4 billion. In this comment he is not saying anything about the current value except that 10% of 44 is around 4.

How else can you read it?
