There’s always been very vocal criticisms of her from people who don’t agree with her (for whatever reason they may have). But since she first started her activism, over a decade ago, no one I personally know has had a negative view of her. The people who don’t like her are very vocal about it, but on the whole I’ve always assumed she’s well liked.
I’ve personally been a fan of hers since I found out about her, and every time I hear about her doing something I basically always go “hell yeah”
I did some digging and think I found the answer (more details in my comment here). The pricing in the screenshot is for business customers, not residential users.
I think I found the answer. When I checked Starlink’s site, those prices plans match up with the personal plans, but it appears that the user in the screenshot has a business plan.
Screenshots should be the Business Local Priority & Global Priority pricing respectively. My prices might be different than the original screenshot (I’m in Canada and I’m not sure how they localize pricing), but the data amounts seems to line up with the selections in the screenshot.
When I worked hospitality, a Karen was someone who automatically assumed that anything not exactly how they wanted it was a personal slight, that you as an employee are not important enough to fix it for them, and that anything short of grovelling is grounds for being fired.
If they listened to you explain why something occurred or why it was the way it was, not a Karen. If they didn’t threaten to escalate because you weren’t offering enough compensation, not a Karen. If they didn’t blame you personally, not a Karen.
And, funny enough, most Karen’s I’ve encountered were men in their mid 40s
I used sheets because it was portable and flexible, but now I’d almost always just use a db instead.
My main use for excel now is “I need to send data to someone who isn’t a programmer” and doing json > CSV conversions to see if my 3000 rows of data from a 3rd party have all the necessary bits.
I really enjoyed spreadsheets before becoming a programmer (I still enjoy them, I just spend less time on them) and basically self taught over the years using Google Sheets.
There are several really useful functions on sheets that simply do not exist in Excel, and there are others that work almost the same but not quite. Having to use Excel drives me insane sometimes because of how clunky it feels.
By contrast, using LibreCalc feels kinda how you’d expect an open source Google Sheets to feel? It’s slightly clunkier, but it gets the job done and generally feels better to use than Excel
My partner was eligible for ~$750 per month repayments under a Biden era plan that Trump scrapped. They now have to pay ~$4300 per month. The headline isn’t far off.
Great, now I’m Swedish
Apparently that’s because I misremembered the band name this morning lol.
Youtube link to the song that introduced me. They do electronic stuff based on DnD classes or 40k lore.
This is why I specified “nearly” the worst. It can absolutely get the job done and has basically every tool you’d need to do the job, but it’s pretty much the worst amongst the “this will do everything you need” options.
My thought process was abacus < pen & paper < text file < spreadsheet < database solutions
I’ve been listening to The Barenaked Ladies & Great Big Sea a lot the last week, with a little Endless Taverns mixed in.
It was only a matter of time until the kings of human misery came out with one.
You could run empires on the back of a spreadsheet.
You absolutely shouldn’t, it’s nearly the worst option you have available, but you could.
Maritime Horrors is great, but for the same vibes as him I also watch Brick Immortar and Big Old Boats from time to time.
And if you’re into mode sky boats then Green Dot Aviation is your guy
I want to make a comment about poutine for Canada. A lot of places do poutine as “fries, cheese, gravy, done”, which never does it justice.
You have to use cheese curds, not anything else. A lot of places will use shredded cheese or mozzarella, and it never works out the same.
Bland fries = bland poutine. If your fries are just a normal russet potato with a bit of salt, it’ll probably be alright but not great. Some of the best poutines I’ve ever had have used seasoned potato wedges as a base, usually with “New Potatoes” (the variety name) instead of russets as the base.
Use more gravy. However much you think you’ll need, use more. Just trust me on this one.
I prefer π = 3.14 ± 0.14. Add a little chaos.
Me to my friend who also plays: I think I only have like 2 side quests left before the end
My friend: Did you do [insert 5 full side stories I hadn’t even started]
Me: … right, so time to start a new save so I can process that.
I’d ask what some of her favourite moments were.
I found with my grandparents that they’d focus on the smaller things as they aged. Sure, they could talk about the major events but they actually liked talking about the little things.
My grandmother (who is best described as an eccentric matriarch) would tell stories about how she changed her general store to one ~10 km further away because the closer one “didn’t serve poor people” (she’d tell the full story of why every time).
She died at ~77. I can only imagine what moments she’d have in her heart if she had lived to 108.
I’m a Canadian and I would have to drive ~8 hours to end up on that map.
I was once rejected for being too tall. I’m 1.96m (~6’5") and she was ~ 1.65m (~5’5"), said that she didn’t like the thought of having to crane her neck to see my face.
