Where are you living that has limits like this? I think the last time I had to worry about SMS limits was like 2013ish and that's because I had a shitty tracphone. Unlimited calls and texting has been the default in the US for at least a decade.

    Of course she did! Her job was to disseminate US military and government secrets to all of our foreign adversaries and she did a flawless job. Now Putin has all the US intelligence he needs, Trump has permission to fire her for being a woman.

    I'm in a different field, but my advice is the machine gun method. Go to indeed or wherever, and apply to anything that you're even half qualified for. I sent 10 resumes a day for 6 weeks to land my job.

    It sucks, but that's what you gotta do these days. Also accept interviews for positions you have no interest in just to get the practice.

    It's an intentional mix of low education, racist history, rural isolation, a faith-based understanding of reality, and 50 years of relentless fascist propaganda. It creates a culturally reinforced tribalism in Republicans and makes them into a sort of cattle-class that can easily be led around by media misinformation. They're too isolated, too dumb, and too blindly loyal to The Party to ever wake up to the reality of their subjugation or the evil of their leaders.

    That's why they'll never abandon Trump.

    Howdy,

    I just wanted to report this little bug. For the last week or two, all comments will automatically be sorted by Hot. Usually I set my default comment sort to Top, but no matter what I change the default comment sort to, it always sorts by Hot when I open a thread. Changing instances doesn't solve it either. If it's important to know, my device is a Google Pixel 7.

    It's not a critical bug, but it's been annoying for me, especially since Connect is the primary way I use Lemmy. Love the app otherwise.

    Thanks!

     

    Here's a couple examples from my life:

    1. Safety Razor. I get a better shave and it's like $15 for 100 razor blades, which lasts me a couple years. Way way way better than the disposable multi-blade Gillette things, which sell 5 heads for $20.

    2. Handkerchiefs. I am prone to allergies, so instead of constantly buying disposable tissues, we now have a stack of handkerchiefs that can just be used a few times and then thrown in the wash. This has also saved me loads.

    What about you?
