I get a bit of this too on items that are flat enough to pool water on the top. I think placing things on the rack so they're at a slight angle is supposed to be the solution but it can be tough

I realize this is a meme sub, but for anyone who needs to hear this:

If you have a modern dishwasher, you probably don't need to do any washing yourself aside from scraping leftover food into your trash can or garbage disposal (where appropriate). Technology Connections has an excellent video going into detail. In short, make sure the water is hot just before starting the cycle, and don't neglect pre-wash detergent.

The dating pool is functionally infinite, giving up is like the one possible mistake.

If you had anything useful to contribute I wouldn't think twice about it, but you're clearly just trying to pick a fight.

I dunno what you're going through that's got you in that mood, but I hope it clears up soon.

You're not even the user I asked, but thanks for the drive-by insult I suppose.

Apparently they are arachnids.

A quick search also seems to indicate that they fall under the umbrella of pest control, and the article suggests "they were on notice that there were prior issues of scorpions at the subject property", so it seems like the hotel was reasonably expected to provide scorpion-free accommodations, lol

Today I learned there are ~40 species of scorpion endemic to California 😬 edit: the incident occurred in Vegas, not California, so I totally misread, but still!

FFS. If this kind of thing keeps up I am not gonna be surprised if some sort of 'rapid response' ends up being a thing where the caller gets a visit from law enforcement "just in case"

Hope that artist sues.

Do you have a source on that? I asked about this recently when I got mine and was told there was no issue with getting both at once

This is not the poop knife I was expecting

On the contrary, I've had a USB cable last multiple phones before. I think the trick is to avoid using it when it's plugged in as much as possible. Another common pitfall is that microfiber (pocket lint) can build up in the charging port over months and years, resulting in a poor connection. You can usually remove this by turning the phone off and using the tip of a wooden toothpick to gently scrape out the lint.

I definitely think they should include a cable in the box though.

Title. I found out recently that I need some major dental work in the near future and I don't have a damn clue how I am going to raise the extra money. I want to explore any realistic options for increasing my earnings before I have to resort to taking on debt, and I suspect that soliciting ideas in a semi-public place like this will turn up a lot of ideas I would never have considered myself.

I'm not very physically fit, but I am pretty good with computers generally, and I've picked up a little bit of programming in my free time this year, though I wouldn't sell myself as a freelancer in that department or anything. I am also pretty good at proofreading / nitpicking things, my regular job is in QA.

Thank you in advance for any input.
