no bus to church??

In the US, many (most?) churches offer their own transportation. It’s common enough that the term ‘church bus’ is a thing, although it’s usually more like a large van. For those that don’t, the parishioners will often offer transportation to those that need it.

They have to file paperwork with the necessary supporting documents. If they can’t, you have no idea why. Maybe it’s because they’re ineligible and in violation of immigration and visa restrictions. Maybe it’s because the documents were lost in a move. Maybe they had their identity stolen and are awaiting new documents. Maybe they just don’t actually give a shit about the job and aren’t bothering to do the paperwork to start working.

All you can say is that you’ve asked them to fill out the paperwork and they haven’t done so.

I found the specs a bit interesting. 52.7 kWh battery and a curb weight of 3,600 lbs is nearly identical to the Chevy Bolt, but this only has a range of 150 miles instead of 240. Is it really that much less efficient? The only thing I can think of is the aerodynamics, but that’s a 40% difference.

In some backwoods places, like the US, this could cost a few hundred dollars just to get a simple answer. Just like human medical care, many people simply cannot afford it.

If you skipped the area code, it probably failed the general validation check. To really test this, you would’ve needed to try a different (but completely valid) number

Depending on the models involved, some phones work with a standard PC USB-C stocking station. You might already have one of these for work.

To really find out, you probably just have to ask them directly.

At 16, her personality is visible, and her taste in partners has probably shown. If she’s into guys with ties to drugs, violence, etc, this might actually be a step up.

It still has the glaringly obvious issues OP was asking about, but you don’t always get to choose the cards you’re dealt. This could be the least harmful choice available.

There is so much additional context needed to say with any confidence. The first thought would be that he can be a good provider (i.e. money) and her other prospects are not very promising. Another could be power, and how that could be extended to the family.

There’s yet another possibility that they aren’t actually ok with it, but are only presenting that face in public. Teenage girls are notoriously hard to control, and this might be the fastest/easiest way to get her to end it or learn a lesson.

There are still a number of other possibilities, many involving religion, that there’s no way to know which might apply to your situation.

Thinkpads are extremely well documented. For how to repair/replace parts, you need the HMM. Just Google for “Thinkpad t14 Gen 1 HMM” and you should find the official PDF on their site. That will tell you, step by step, how to replace the keyboard.

As for the part itself, you can again check Lenovo’s site for all compatible parts (FRUs) and find the item number and details. While I wouldn’t recommend buying directly from them due to cost, this should give you the information needed to find it elsewhere. eBay has tons of Thinkpads being sold for parts, and many of these will be parted out. You should have no issues finding what you’re looking for.

As others have mentioned, it refers to the gear shift. But it actually has a meaningful origin - many years ago, the gear order was not agreed upon. Many cars had a gear shift that was PNDLR (which I’ve heard pronounced “pendler”), where reverse was at the end. At the time, it was useful to tell the difference between a PRNDL and a PNDLR shift.

Of course that was all before 1971, when PRNDL was mandated by the US government.

There are some public numbers on how many occurrences are found each year on the major platforms.

IIRC, Facebook deals with around 75 million reports per year. Twitter, Reddit, and others were around 20 million reports per year.

I don’t know how many are dealt with on Mastodon or Lemmy (or how you’d even get reliable numbers for that), but something tells me it’s a lot less than the bigger platforms these days.

You are helping - they clearly need the additional training, and you’re doing everything you can to supply that. Their job can’t be relying on you.

They shouldn’t (and almost certainly don’t) have delegation authority.

For corporate bingo, the keywords are upskill, cross-training, and bus factor.

Don’t show. Guide them to do it themselves. Never be the one to actually do it beyond the first time.

If they still refuse to learn, make them take notes. Make them read to you their notes from last time. Make them tell you what each step is and means.

Make asking you the hardest option for them to get what they want.

This might be interesting. I turned off all of my Google history years ago. I presume they still collected all of it.

This could reveal some of that.

There isn’t just one reason. The biggest one currently can be directly tied back to porn. It’s also not just the simple existence of porn, but with our excessive consumption of it.

The fact that nearly all porn is the same in this regard is also a factor. There’s also a generational factor, in that younger people experienced almost-exclusively shaved partners and porn in their formative years.

That would probably result in teams that have the shortest players possible (to lower the rim), and 1 or 2 tall players to exploit that.

It’s more like claiming to own a subreddit, or a Twitter hashtag.

“Having a Discord server” doesn’t mean what those words normally mean.

How exact does it need to be? There are plenty of ways to collect and organize the data. There are plenty of low-income schools. If you only gave out free condoms at the ones that were 90% black (but given to all students there), would that count?
