Having worked stock in a grocery store, this is part of it. After asking alot of different people at different levels, the consensus is that shelf space is also paid for by many brands, and what space goes to who is decided way above the store level. So once in a while the stockers get paperwork that moves a ton of stuff around, and no one who works in that location has the authority to say no. Sure, sometimes a manager will do that anyway, but they always have a reason, and it’s usually something about the reality of the store configuration, like not putting too many cold items near warm areas, to keep humidity down and reduce spoil.

Thank you Turtle Duck

Nothing within the known universe moves faster then light, but the universe itself expands faster then light travels within it.

I’m shocked that any physical products ever got into the hands of the people who wanted then, I thought for sure it was a total scam. Apparently I was right, just not in the way I had thought.

Robby are you ok, are you ok Robby!?

I don’t see the issue. Her grandma is being loving and supportive, and it’s not like grandma doesn’t know what sex is.

Didn’t one of these trip and shake itself to bits?

This is great!

He was given 21.5 years in prison, it’s not gonna matter much if he can apply for a license after getting out from that. Looking at him, I’d say he’s around 45-55, so 21.5 means he’ll be aged to the point of more likely to fail the exam then pass it.

Same as Odysseus

Police do not stop crimes, at least not here in the USA. Police punish after the crime happens, at best.

Also the sleep function on Steam Deck is pretty good. I bring mine to work and grab some offline playtime during my 15 minute breaks, and sometimes during my 30 min lunch after i eat. No Man’s Sky is chill and easy to pickup/putdown, Minecraft as well. I’m sure other titles would work as well.

Underrated comment 👏

I could use a brush up on my Latin, but is that whale killing Virus basically called “Whale Killer Virus”?

This is a cartoon about the USA prison system isn’t it?

I agree, the average situation is certainly rife with more nuance. For example, my young ones play Minecraft, despite that being implicated as a vector used by pedophiles to find and groom victims. However, I long ago did like you have suggested and limited the online options and communications my kids can interact with, as well as using that as an opportunity to speak with them about why those protections where in place.

My issue with Roblox is that as a company, they routinely downplay the role their platform plays in such crimes, and have actively prevented such activity from being stopped while taking no steps to filter or moderate such things from their end. Yes, parents need to do more then just hand a child a screen so they stop needing attention, but a platform that exploits predator usage is exploiting children.

Now some parents may not be knowledgeable about this, and I can understand that “you don’t know what you don’t know”. However, a parent who chooses to sour a family holiday because the whim of their spawn was not bowed to is not, generally speaking, a good parent. The combination of this with the usage of a pedophile-supporting platform aimed at children while clearly not setting healthy boundaries with the child, are the reason I would say this person is a bad parent. It’s not one factor, its the culmination of multiple that result in this reasoning.

So your sister actively consents to her son being on a platform riddled with pedophiles and expects you to be complicit as well.

You where nice, I would have told her she was a terrible parent, why, and then ask her to leave. I’ve become no-contact with toxic family over issues before, and I’ll do it again.

First choose a version of linux to install on it, then you can proceed.

Carl’s Jr, fuck you!
