mcbexx posted:I told her not to worry and explained to her that our invoicing software (being from Europe) used commas as decimal separators and dots as thousands separators, so the invoice was 87.00 ("87,00" being the invoice amount) and not 87,000. She insisted they had wired 87,000 dollars. Congrats, your software handles international transactions properly instead of being as fail as your assumption. Most software since the 70's does this. It already had to convert currencies, so obviously it'll convert commas to decimals and vice versa were necessary. It's not magic.

What do you get talked down from that a twin towers mattress ad is the sane option? "Counting all these Jews puts me to sleep, I need a final solution to my bedding problems"?

North Carolina continues to be punished for their bathroom bill idiocy.quote:Since the North Carolina legislature last March passed House Bill 2, a controversial law restricting transgender bathroom access and limiting the civil rights and bathroom usage of the LGBT community, the state has lost the NBA All-Star Game, Bruce Springsteen and other concerts and conventions and millions of dollars in revenue. From later in the same article: quote:In addition to the NCAA men’s basketball tournament, North Carolina is also losing:

I can promise you that in ancient Egypt someone was selling shoddy chariots to the pharaohs by adding flotation to them to deal with the problem of seas collapsing on their armies.

radiatinglines posted:Practical? Exercise and sport. We trained in a pool like that, which four houses (of well-to-do people)shared. The kidney-shaped pool where I live now is pretty useless for anything but just getting wet. e: or for a single person to swim laps (with a whole lot of turning, because it's so short).

Jastiger posted:What. Because there are plenty of people in the world who have never experienced racism directly - so they can easily convince themselves that stuff like this is harmless? Even her apology shows this - because she called the video "SELF-deprecating". Uh no - it was ASIAN-deprecating. The self-deprecation was incidental because she wound up looking like a racist, out of touch Stepford wife. The sad part is - she probably contacted the Asian friend after all the kerfuffle, and that lady was probably too nice to say anything beyond "I mean....it didn't bother ME because I know you, but I can see how other people thought it was racist" which is polite-this-person-is-my-friend-and-I-know-they-arent-a-bad-person for "holy poo poo it was racist as gently caress, you moron - how can you be so stupid?"
