I've seen hundreds of movies in theaters and can count the bad experiences on one hand

Lmao good luck making your AI images into NFTs on the block chain without solving the blue light gaming problem of traditional OLED displays, loser

I haven't eaten anything but breakfast since they got rid of the cheap wraps but it's still my go-to "treat" when I have to be somewhere early

The bacon, egg, and cheese bagel combo still rocks but it's like $12 now. McDonald's breakfast was about $6 here five years ago.

I'm just glad to read that SOMEONE cares enough about the legal system to shut this down

They should have been holding Cow Tools

 

Do you think we could get an "About Community" button on there, too?

 

Forgot I had to give my dog an unexpected bath yesterday and used all the clean towels

 

Example comment

It renders correct in a browser but all the line breaks are replaced with a weird symbol in the app.

Not a big deal or anything but I wanted to share!

 

~~None of them do anything~~

Now they do! If you're getting the same issues, update to the newest beta

 

I have a "flexible" WFH schedule which means I'm almost always working from home. Today, I've been lured in with an NDA breakfast with a manufacturer.

So you know what that means: 1 hour of "yum I love breakfast sandwiches" followed by 6 hours of "why did I think that would be worth the drive?"

 

My friends and I were active Twitter users up until it got sold and the only reason my account isn't deleted already is because I have a LOT of memories there.

I looked into downloading the tweets.js archive but that seems to be only what I wrote, not the original tweet if it's a reply. Having the full conversations that led to in-jokes is what I'm after!

I understand why this would be very complicated and to add to that, half of our profiles are set to private so The Way Back Machine and other public services won't work. Media would be nice but it's not a requirement.

Does something like this exist?

 

The bolts for the handle prevent going from top to bottom in one motion across the whole door so I had to adapt. Over time, I've become pretty good at removing all the water to prevent streaks when it dries even on the sleepiest of mornings.

 

And yes, they did.

He stayed at my sister's yesterday so he and her dog (his brother) could get the crazies out before family comes over. A smart move but I missed him more than I thought I would.

 
 

I don't know why stuff like this keeps me up at night but let's pretend you just won some obscene amount and there's a lot of people you'd like to set up for life. Let's say after taxes you have $300m in your account

You can give someone up to 18k a year without incurring a gift tax and while that'd definitely be a nice bump to their income, you still have way more money than you know what to do with. So what's the smartest way to hook them up?

A couple of options I've considered are:

  1. Give them a lump sum of $X million. They eat the taxes the first year and handle the savings themselves.

  2. Create a company and hire them to "work" one hour a month for a big salary. If you put $25m in an account, the interest covers the salary. They get a steady bonus income with the added bonus of getting the best insurance available. Is that legal?

  3. Set up a "shared" checking account they can use to pay for...whatever. But would these expenses count towards the gift tax? I do not know.

  4. Buy houses and let them live there rent-free. I don't really like this one because I don't want to be a lord to my friends and family.

For the record, I did not win the lottery. I don't even play it. I'm just working out the details in a fantasy world for some reason
