reddig33 OP , to Home Improvement in Should I insulate my garage attic?

Good suggestion. Our local Home Depot rents these as well.

reddig33 , to Texas in Texas school district agrees to remove ‘Anne Frank’s Diary,’ ‘Maus’ and 670 other books after right-wing group’s complaint

Idiots.

reddig33 , to Work Reform in Dell said return to the office or else—nearly half of workers chose “or else” - Workers stayed remote even when told they could no longer be promoted.

The problem is that the layoff isn’t targeted. Talented people can more easily find another job that will still let them work from home. That leaves Dell with a higher percentage of untalented employees than competitors.

reddig33 , (edited ) to Star Trek in What Went Wrong: Inside Paramount’s Failed Merger Talks and the Battle to Salvage the Company

What went wrong: The US government allowed studios to own streaming and broadcast channels. This resulted in extreme fragmentation of the market where programs were no longer sold on the open market and every studio felt like they had to open their own streaming channel to compete.

It didn’t work when studios owned movie theaters and so that was outlawed. Now we’ve come full circle and studios can buy movie theaters. That’s not going to save the theaters because the studio is going to put their product out for a week before shuffling it off to their streaming channel. Or worse, cancel it for a write off rather than let it air on competing networks.

reddig33 , to Texas in Texas' governor is spending millions & using anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric to defund public education

Texas should split into multiple states. There’s at least two blue states out of five in that mass of land.

reddig33 , to Star Trek in Dr. Pulaski Appreciation Post

Fantastic actress. She kicked ass as Rosalynd Sheas on L. A. Law among other great roles. Did a great job as Pulaski as well. I really wish Trek would give Pulaski a shout out on one of the other series currently in production.

reddig33 , to Work Reform in According to the Federal Reserve Americans owe over $1.6 trillion in student loan debt, with the average borrower owing $37,667

$40k is a lot lower than I thought the average would be.
