I have clear memories of the pastor at my parents’ church talking about how the gay agenda’s next steps were legalizing bestiality and pedophilia. Probably would’ve been somewhere around 2014-2015. Looking back, it was absolutely the beginning of the end of me having anything to do with religion, so maybe it’s actually the best sermon I ever sat through.
I’m glad the new owners decided to increase rodent pest control, leading to less food for stray cats to eat in the area.
I’m getting closer every fucking day, proportional to how increasingly little I feel like I belong here.
But you don’t carry the sign with you. It stays at the shelf. Sure, they could build a system that tracks you everywhere in the store and marks what price they showed you and tells the register what price to display when you check out. They’ll try all that, but this won’t do it yet.
Yeah, I’m not actually that worried. I’ve seen these in use at hardware stores for quite a while now. It’s just useful to assume that Walmart is planning to fuck you over. That’s a good point with BT though, many of the kind of microcontrollers that would be used for this sort of thing offer BT connectivity as well.
As long as you have a free market and not a coordinated one it will work out great for you guys too
Ah, so we’re fucked
There’s not really a way to do that with this technology. These are just price tags on the shelf, so if they changed the price it would change it for everyone in the store.
The deductible is an amount that you pay out of pocket before insurance starts covering anything. So if insurance doesn’t get billed, the money doesn’t count towards the deductible. This may make it difficult to lower the bill at all, it really depends on how much the entire bill is compared to your deductible. If you can’t pay it though, they’ll have to give you an affordable payment plan. Definitely negotiate and don’t take a loan out from some other source to cover.
Well that’s the strongest argument for making a Bluesky account that I’ve heard
I don’t know the ins and outs of the ADA, but I disagree with your analogy. What Starbucks is doing is akin to Walmart charging a different price for milk and oat milk, which I don’t think anyone would say is not allowed. It’s not like there’s a sheet of lactose you have to walk through to get into a Starbucks or anything, there’s just things on the menu that people with some food allergies can’t order.
Holy shit, they really buried the lede with that headline. For sure, throw away the key.

It’s probably guns. That guy who shot all those people at the music festival in Vegas snuck a small arsenal into his room and they didn’t notice until the shooting.
