I say weird shit and half the time I actually believe it.
I thought about it for a second, and my mental idea of what a normal person is is like some black and white nuclear family, white dad with slick back hair and a sweater and a pipe in his mouth, and wife wearing a gingham dress, cooking food and cleaning with her hair in an updo.
If that is what normal is, there’s only ever been one family that was actually normal, and they are all dead now.
Yeah, isn’t that what everyone wants?
A website where you talk to people and a robot with no oversight shows up and changes what you say, or silences you, or prevents you from talking to certain people.
At the same time though, I don’t care if billionaires play rock and sock em robots with companies. It just kind of sucks for the people that work at those companies, being tools of a game for rich people to play.
No, I mean by default you are opted out.
Cons wouldn’t use the phrase “single mother working three jobs”.
It’s a level of obvious sarcasm, so obvious that if it weren’t sarcasm, people would rally together to hunt them down like the dogs they are.
This is the kind of shit that happens when you think everybody is stupid except you.
And that’s fine, I’ll just use different browsers until they change their stance.
I am very averse to companies breaking my trust.
Mozilla can win it back by explicitly stating what they are collecting, why they are collecting it, and making opt out the default.
I use readable names.
I’m using one system for testing purposes, so it’s called testingPC.
Any containers are named for the container purposes, like my pihole is named pihole.
My system is so boring that any person were to pick it up after I got hit by a bus would be able to figure out everything.
I’ve been saying this for years. News is news, but media is media. And just like the difference between an artistic nude and pornography, you know what it is when you see it.
I don’t think that news organizations should be allowed to broadcast Propaganda media without consequence, At the very least, they should be required to be transparent when they are not reporting what they believe to be factual truth.
I had a moose meat burger, it was the softest burger I ever ate
I think I lucked out because I live in the suburbs, but it’s a very walkable suburb. There are sidewalks, there is public transportation, and I can walk to the grocery store and back in under a mile.
There are parks nearby within walking distance, with sidewalks between my house and the park for kids to play in, and all of the main streets have bike lanes.
I live in America, this is not like European normal standard.
Oregon and Washington and most of California have a lot going for it as far as human amenities in suburban spaces.
Of course you are looking at outliers and I feel like you’re right to the point that outliers like that should have special assessments or breaks.
Where I live, the taxes are pretty high for real estate, but if you are a senior citizen, you can get a discount where your tax rate is locked in at the value that it was when you retired.
I also have some acquaintances who inherited a house and at the time houses were very cheap but they didn’t pay the taxes and they were super upset that they were going to lose their house because they didn’t pay the taxes.
So now they’re bunking up and living in apartments and Scattered because they didn’t want to drum up the two or three thousand dollars a year in real estate taxes that they had to pay to keep an entire house.
Out of an abundance of curiosity, I looked it up and apparently a single 100 milligram pill costs about $300.
I can also get generic mucinex at the Dollar Tree for $1.25, so if it doesn’t clear me out 300 times better than an entire bottle of mucinex at the same time, I don’t think it’s gonna be worth it for me.
I would be seriously tempted to try this stuff as someone who doesn’t suffer from CF just to see what it would be like.
That being said, I’m sure the side effects for people who do not have an illness are probably pretty horrific. I have not done any research, but usually very powerful drugs have very powerful side effects, especially for people who won’t see any substantial benefit for the drug.
Pretty much all of them.
Most tech issues can be easily reduced to rote actions as long as you have a little bit of knowledge about the environment in which they are being executed.
Sure, it’s fun rolling out youth systems and dealing with integration issues and things like that, but after the high watermark fun things, there are large gaps of where you’re just doing maintenance, and maintenance is no fun.
I do tech work for law firms, hospitals, and schools. I make about $150k/yr, but I’m bored out of my skull. I’d like more of a challenge but I’d have to give up my cush to get it.
Yeah, I would buy an aftermarket toner instead. Having been doused in toner in the past, I do not recommend it
The problem is we don’t have a very good method to review our old patterns and make sure that they still hold up in the current meta.
This is how you get old fucks like the political leaders of the United States reacting to emails as if they were gigantic scandals when reality has moved far beyond that.
I think that saying comes from an era when that’s what happened to them.
That aside, it really depends on the person. Just because some people get a little more flexible in some ways doesn’t mean that everyone becomes more flexible as they age. It’s very likely that people can get more and more set in their ways as time goes by.
