nah, you have a beast dude, don't regret anything.

yeah, seems extremely weird to not have it, it is a must for newer cars, especially ones that are EVs. I wonder why they don't have it, maybe a beef with the phone makers...

Having driven a very slow acceleration car, yes, yes you do, trust me. Nothing worse than merging into dense traffic with high-speed trucks next to you and not being able to come up to speed before the ramp ceases.

Looking good, feels smooth, haven't tested that deeply yet.

I made https://www.copy.directory/ a few years back, now thinking about adding more features. It helps copywriters find just the exact word they need for their job. 0 AI features in it.

Same for me, nothing happens.

I can confirm that it takes around 6 months to open a GmbH, having done it myself here in Germany. It is a complex process even though I had an accountant the whole time as well as a notary.

It's a popularity contest these days and niche products rarely see the light of day there.

I am an approved submitter there and I can confirm that there are a bunch of FB pages for producthunters to ask for upvotes from one another.

didn't work for me when I typed 'svelte'

Right click -> Copy Link to Highlight on chrome

Chrome extensions i use:

adblock plus, google dictionary (just highlight a word and it will define it, or if it isn't an english word it will translate it to english), poper blocker, grammarly, "I don't care about cookies".

thank god, finally a way to block codegrepper from my searches. fuck that site

I think the netting/chaining of cargo won't work as the winds here in Germany can get quite strong, making the cargo's weight less balanced and messing up the drone's stability.

There are way too many CTAs and general elements on the top of the landing page.

Great pic, didn't know its origin. I know it from being on the cover of one of the games in the Cossacks game series.

I believe that the US citizens who working on board could leave, it's the NON-US citizens that the US didn't give a shit about. Hell, keeping the crew onboard meant that the crew will spend their money onboard for necessities like water, cigarettes, laundry and drinks, so that they could make a bank out of bad situation.

Most of the crew come from poor countries who can't do much to help you. I once got stuck in Heathrow and couldn't get on my next flight to Germany, called the embassy of my european(non eu) country and they just told me to get another flight.

No, he was right. Cruise lines use the international waters to do shit like casino riggings, involuntary and shady gratuities practices and a bunch of other things.

Carnival has large IT departments monitoring social media, so I will be on their radar here, but I can confirm that there was a lawsuit someone came in touch with me to be on.

Message to the carnival guys monitoring this: Hey guys, I am not coming back, you can't do shit about this, this isn't Facebook. I know you know who I am already, I just don't care.

You are, but it's way too far from enough. The onboard crew department that is part of the HR tried to organize things weekly for the crew, however most of the time you can't make it as you will be working.

The ships get the flags of small island-countries, where there are almost no laws protecting the crew and only loosely regulated laws about things like gambling, taxes and so on, things these companies misuse to garner profits.

I believe there are 0 US flagged ships that are part of the cruise industry that in the U.S.

lolmao, medical treatement for crew onboard is a whole book in itself...

For the corona crisis, everything was done as basic and cost-saving as possible.

Without the corona situation, god forbid you get fucking sick on the ship. They feed you up with some basic 2 pills they give to whoever is sick of anything. As far as I could notice, those were some stimulants with the end goal to have you back on duty as soon as possible.

Even if you get sick, like legitimately sick and get treated, you end up with a mafia-style talk with your manager about "your recent performance". If you keep yourself off the sick train for the next months, you will get a pat on the back and a good review, where the 'recent performances' one from previously seemingly never happened. Truly disgusting practices.

Let me guess, your uncle is South American? 3rd world country?

Most of the blue collar workers are indeed treated almost slave-like tbh, I mean you are free to leave, but you will pay your own ticket and stay at the hotel and you will be escorted by a literal bodyguard the whole time to ensure you won't stay in the U.S.

If you obey management and don't get to anyone's bad side, you are allowed to stay and the staying part is actually the shitty one. Almost all of them have no choice though, so they have to sacrifice their mental and physical health, as well as their pride.

I was personally technically an officer on the ship so we get a bit better treatment, such as a housekeeper and we have our uniforms cleaned and ironed. Still, the hours even for us happened to be hell, sometimes on the embarkation days (when guests board the ship) it would go up to 13-14 hours.

The blue collar workers, especially in housekeeping normally worked around that 12 hours a day mark, regularly, for 7-9 months onboard.

The article mentions 8-10 hours, but that is an exception, not a norm.

All in all, CCL likes to aim for a 10/10 treatment for the guests and I guess they consistently hit 8/10 with their core customers. Crew however, a solid 3/10 max.

A bit more than 3 months, but shit hit the fan even before the official date on which you couldn't leave. Being part of one of the central services on board a ship and dealing with guests and crew alike, there were major signs of incoming instability for 2-3 weeks before that. A LOT of shit never made it to the public or the CDC but was known internally. Hell, I could even go full Snowden and reveal the shit they did.

Screw it, I worked onboard a CCL ship when shit hit the fan, AMA.

Nah, this is a bunch of crap. I worked on a carnival ship until the pandemic and I don't know where you pulled this answer out of, but it plain old wrong.

The reason they can't leave is simply the American authorities won't let them leave the ship in order to prevent them from staying in the U.S and potentially finding a way to get a job there (legal or illegal). There wasn't a person on board who couldn't leave the ship because of documentation in normal circumstances, but with the virus happening, Carnival shit their pants and were blocked from having anyone leave for the aforementioned reason.

I find their categorization amusing as this is there:

Non-fiction > Bibles > American Standard Version

It's a non-issue, don't sweat it.

An amazing article. I love these kinds of articles that actually have an effect on your life after reading them.
