No. It's not the employers fault that Alice spent more money on her mode of transportation.

This is why paying people for their commute is unreasonable. Payment by mileage is based fuel costs mostly. Some wear and tear, but mainly it's to offset the fuel cost. If someone rides a bike to work, they don't have fuel costs, therefore should not be compensated.

A lot of it depends on what consoles you want to emulate. I'm no expert, but from what I've seen just casually looking through retro gaming forums, is that anything up to N64/PS3 is doable with relatively cheap hardware. But if you want to emulate N64 or PS3 and above properly, you're going to need to step up in specs.

Nuclear is the way to go.

How about not giving the parents the teachers' personal phone number for starters. Every and all contact should be through a school email or chat app.

And any email from a parent harassing or threatening a teacher gets escalated to the principal.

If it continues, the pupil is expelled from the school

Something's up for sure. I can't get into my account on lemmy.world. Was working earlier today, but not anymore. I can log into Beehaw though

When it comes to live sports, I gave up on trying to find online streams a while ago. IPTV is really the best way to go for that.

Yeah I was excited with the Vegas news since I'm only 4hrs away, but then when I saw the prices I couldn't believe it. I'm close enough to drive there but not close enough for a turn around. When you factor in hotel/event costs and traffic, I could only imagine the nightmare it would be to try and make a weekend out of it.

COVID, UFO/UAP's...the list goes on and on. Conspiracy theories are actually turning out to be the most reliable news sources. The MSM has proved over and over that they are just shills for whatever government they serve and we can't believe anything they put out as news.

Can someone explain why they didn't allow intermediates? Seems dumb to have to choose between slicks and full wets.

This has been my experience as well. I use Linux Mint Cinnamon and two Canon PIXMA printers. One large format and one printer/scanner. Canon does not have any Linux drivers on their website, but they were recognized and supported when they were plugged in. Pretty much plug and play

One thing I've noticed though is that the CUPS drivers seem to be the bare minimum. You can't do things like see ink levels and the color/brightness levels are off by quite a bit. A lot of times It takes a lot of tweaking to get colors accurate that for a lot of my photos, I just fire up the windows machine and print them from there
