I hate the drop in feature that alexa devices have. You can drop into any device in your home and no one had to accept. Essentially you can listen in without the other person knowing. If it had some sort of announcement that smoothie device was dropping in and it was possible to accept our decline that would be different.

While FMLA can be used in the case of a pregnancy you have to meet the following conditions first:

In order to be eligible to take leave under the FMLA, an employee must (1) work for a covered employer, (2) work 1,250 hours during the 12 months prior to the start of leave, (3) work at a location where 50 or more employees work at that location or within 75 miles of it, and (4) have worked for the employer for 12 months.

So basically if you work for a smaller company, or just started, you can't use it.

Also note the per location employee rule. You could have a large nationwide business that purposely keeps the regional employment low in order to circumvent FMLA payouts

I mainly do drip and pour overs and have this Mr. Coffee blade grinder. It's not the most consistent grind but it's pretty good considering the price

Can confirm, my brother laser printer has lasted 14 years and the current toner cartridge was purchased 6 years ago.

To add to this, due to the scale that the major grocery chains operate at, even if you do have a local grocer, baker, etc their prices will be higher than the big box stores

In general. Even art the artist makes at home in their own free time belongs to Disney

The police in America are very much not trained for anything.

Police in some countries are required to obtain at least a four year degree and attend a two year police academy before they can start.

Contrast that to the city I used to live in where they had a written test to be a police officer. A written test where they had to reduce the math competency portion from a 4th grade math level to a 1st grade math level due to too many candidates failing the test. Other than that, the only other requirement is a two year degree that is very generic

It's a thing jeep

 

Grew some Purple Lemonade Autos from Fast Buds. This was the top bud from the main cola. It measured two inches across and three long and was very dense.

 

Scenario (steps to reproduce)

  1. Log in to sync with an account with a home instance other than lemmy.world

  2. Note that the instance shows as a remote I stance in the sidebar.

  3. Attempt to upvote a post on the home instance.

  4. Receive a "Post not local" message.

  5. Clicking through the message to upvote, or even see comments, works but the upvote doesn't seem to stick.

Not sure if they're is a self or security feature I missed, but sync can only see the favorite, camera, screenshot, and download albums on my phone. I can find photos from other albums by using the photos tab but it is harder to find them as it is all pictures on my phone.
