Perhaps I could have included a list of other places as an example that can refuse you for financial reasons. It would have helped for people not familiar with the system..

From my post: "Many people would go to the ER for non-ER reasons because it was the only way to get treatment when you didn't have the money to pay"

Seems pretty obvious that I meant the ER...

It's way easier to kill yourself with opioids- accidentally or on purpose. That's why it's being treated like an epidemic.

As far as I know, Hospitals are not allowed to refuse you care; no matter what your finances are, they have to help you. Many people would go to ER for non-ER reasons because it was/is the only way for them to get treatment. (Because other medical centers can refuse you.)

The hospitals will try to get the money from you however they can and they do offer payment plans based on income. Ultimately, though, due many? The debt gets discharged to a debt collection agency that harasses you incessantly for 7 years until it gets discharged from your record.

It destroys your credit (an arbitrary number that every citizen has that supposedly shows how trustworthy they are and how much they are likely to pay you if you loan them money) until it drops off after the statute of limitations (7-10 years, depending on the state).

Solid answer to a different question 😉

Dawn Soap, Hot Water, and on anything with cracks that I feel like the sponge won't reach well, I add salt or sugar as a "scrub"! Never had an issue ❤️

Note that I prepare raw food (including chicken) for one of my dogs.

Except that that is a back pedal on their part and their FAQ plainly says they actually have no way of tracking what is a new install versus a re-install; which is why they decided to count all installs to begin with.

Clearly without consulting anyone with a modicum of common sense.

It's also possible its a move to deliberately piss of the customer base, so they can "back off" and implement a solution that still satisfies them, but looks like they let the "customer" (mostly) win.

For example: "We will charge $.20 for over 200K installs!" Backpedal: "We will charge $.05 for only the initial install after 500K installs!"

Pretty sure there are many documented instances of exactly this occurring, especially in the game dev industry unfortunately. (The goal was never the first offer, but rather to overshadow the real goal.)

It is exactly what Unity means; they have doubled down on the clarifications. The precise point is to charge the developer for any install a user makes once they earn a (paltry) $200K.

It's not rocket science to see that this is a very bad, very abusive idea and its targeted to hurt indie developers the most (as larger studios like EA would be on the enterprise plan and therefore on the hook for only 1/20th of the same usage).

Some simple math says that you would have to uninstall and reinstall a $5 game 20 times to completely nullify the earnings from your purchase.

It's surprisingly easy to rack up installs; between multiple devices, uninstalls for bug fixing / addressing, the OS breaking it, modded installs having to be reset, making space for other games, refreshing a device... and so on. And that's not even accounting for bad actors actively trying to damage a company.

Thank you! ❤️ I don't have the means to host my own instance, but once I do a bit more research and understand Lemmy better, I will definitely be making some pet related communities ❤️

Dude, I wish. That's why I'm asking here - because he was -wild- and I know that isn't what being anti-car is about... at least, I'd hope not anyhow.

If it makes it better, his name is Ben and we went to college together lol!

Trains don't allow dogs as passengers :(
