New vet so this is the only facility I’ve been to, but I’ve been pretty impressed. Building looks nice, campus is massive, all the facilities you could want. Availability for appointments can be kind of rough but you can’t beat health care for free fifty.
Obviously not to the same scale or anything like that, but re-pc has a nice little computer history exhibit. Plus they have a huge selection of second hand electronics. Fun to sort through if you check it out every couple of months.
I have my account setup to auto-deduct if I get lower then $10, refreshing an extra $100. I don’t have any sticker - just the plate, make, and model in my account. Since setting this up years ago I have not had any issues.
Might have to reach out to their help team to figure out wtf is going on?

Cool! I mean with the amount of money it was generating it seems like a no brainer to offer even a little assistance for businesses. I wasn’t aware of the soda tax!
It was a pretty big deal. Most grocery stores bitched about it and protested by giving an explanation of why sugary soda cost more. The beverage companies then got together and made sure a soda tax could not happen in the rest of the state. They framed it as making sure that grandma could afford her groceries. She can afford her soda now but probably not her necessary diabetes medication.
I’d love to know how affective those preventative taxes are for reducing consumption. Same thing happened with tobacco products across the country and now people are still using tobacco at high rates but just complaining about the cost.
I don’t know if there’s good data on the sugary drinks tax yet, but tobacco taxes have absolutely greatly reduced tobacco use. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3228562/From the intro of that article:
Tobacco taxation, passed on to consumers in the form of higher cigarette prices, has been recognized as one of the most effective population-based strategies for decreasing smoking and its adverse health consequences
Thanks for linking this! That’s cool to see that it’s an effective deterrent, but also looks like it might not change the behavior of long term users.
However, there is a striking lack of evidence about the impact of increasing cigarette prices on smoking behavior in heavy/long-term smokers, persons with a dual diagnosis and Aboriginals
I have found that if one of the instances (the source or the one you’re looking for) is down it won’t show up when you search on your instance. Someone else said to keep clicking. Growing pains.
It’s a gamble. Now I think I understand why Reddit was always so fucky, they didn’t fix their software. Lemmy has the excuse of not being a huge entity and ran by volunteers on the dev side. I guess Reddit and Lemmy are both ran by volunteers on the social side.
