You can try NewPipe, which is free. IIRC I downloaded it from F-Droid. Maybe someone else can reply and confirm that’s the best place to get it.

How do younpay for these services? I’d imagine you might not want to use your credit cards.

If you use a VPN, change your country and see if that affects the content you’re offered. I’m in Manchester according to my VPN, and Netflix is offering me tons of British sitcoms and dramas, shows not available in my home country.

A Battery Daddy, which stores batteries in a clear case and has its own battery tester inside. It’ll probably end up being less goofy and more useful.

Florida.

I guarantee he had ChatGPT write this.

Does the character mean to cry “Attica”? Like people who yelled it in the 70s, referencing the prison revolt?

Trader Joe’s smoked sardines in olive oil is delicious.

Thank you!

I’m American and I can’t think of a comedy show that makes fun of Indian food. Can you name one of them so I can check it out?

I’d say most medium to large sized cities in the US have Indian restaurants, so it’s not so unusual.

Dr. Bronners liquid Castille soap. I’ve tried others but they are not as concentrated or as moisturizing. Great diluted for shaving legs.

Sensodyne Pronamel Intensive Enamel Repair Toothpaste. I’ve reversed three cavities that were forming by using this toothpaste.

Persil detergent. I use other detergents but always have this on deck for tough stains or funky items.

Jockey women’s cotton underwear. There’s a specific cut that they have that’s flattering and comfortable.

"…my father came to America at the age of 12 as a plumber’s apprentice. No education.”

“I went to public school in the Bronx, high school in the Bronx, college in the Bronx. I started my career in Wall Street the day after I got my MBA from Columbia. I had no money. I couldn’t afford a vacation. I made a lot of money. I’m giving it all back…

I’m imagining the cost of living that allowed his father to live on the salary of a 12 year old who worked as a plumbers assistant. I’m also imagining that this billionaire probably went to Bronx Science (a free public school now where attendees likely have paid for test prep to do well on the entrance exam, out of reach for a lot of NYC public school students). If he went to college in the Bronx, it was likely Fordham - the 2023 cost of attendance (tuition plus fees and books) is now $89,575. For an MBA from Columbia, their cost of attendance (which includes room and board) is now $127,058 in 2023.

He cannot make the connection that COL and earnings have grown exponentially since the time his father was 12, yet wages haven’t. Does he not see that very few students would be able to go to private universities for undergrad and grad schools and service their debt with current wages? How many graduate and immediately start working on Wall Street? He’s probably against WFH, too, solely seeing the benefit to his commercial real estate portfolio and ignoring the commuting costs and work life balance issues for the workers. The world capitalism gave him and his father is gone. At this point it’s as real as ghosts and dreams. We are dealing with the current world that capitalism has given us, a capitalism that only a billionaire would cry over.

Would you say you both share the management tasks 50/50 as well?

I think it depends on the task. We have our areas that we focus on (e.g., me laundry, him cooking) but there are others where we come together/alert each other of issues or tasks that are coming up (e.g., selecting afterschool for our children).

My husband does all those things but I also do a lot of the “every other weekend” type chores, too, like organizing all of our stuff, back to school supplies shopping, maintaining our appointment calendars, and dealing with our children’s change of season clothing swaps. There are always projects and we split them.

I do consider him sharing the housework as 50/50, however, because he does daily tasks, also. He does the cooking, half of the cleaning, half of the schlepping of children to doctor’s appointments and playdates, as well as other as needed things. The daily chores is where the rubber meets the road.

He has also been taking on more small but important daily tasks like monitoring our email inboxes for emails from our kids’ schools. I think its more than equitable given that the early years of our lives with children i was either nursing through the night or holding/wearing infants throughout the day. I think a lot of men don’t seem to register the overnight labor or the constantly carrying babies and infants as labor (it was freaking exhausting).

Reddit was too weird for most people until they ended up being in their Google search results for most topics. It will take a while but the Fediverse will eventually reach a level of popularity and mainstream utility.

So, to use this, I download F-droid to my Android device and then download Vimusic?

What if this person comes to Lemmy or kbin and becomes a mod…yes, I’m asking the inevitable question.
