I have yet to see any place with a good hiring procedure, this nonsense included. People saying they work in HR should generally be looked at as if they just admitted to being in a cult, which is terrifying because it means cultists will be deciding whether you get to do the thing you do to keep from starving in the street.

You kidding?

(Looks at them)

That empty spot is where those two would be, if they didn't have to do 55 hours/wk at work and care for their families the rest of the time.

He got depressed and vanished a year ago. No one knows where he went. He didn't leave any contact info.

He's literally too stupid to breathe. We keep him around for the laughs but no one is going to tell him anything.

And he's literally dead.

Did you read those papers you signed when you started your job? You probably agreed to this there as well.

On a certain level, privacy always was a luxury. Through most of human history, you lived bumcheek to jowl with othet people. The trick is, now it's a different beast. Corporations have the ability to be much more powerful in their invasions. As for your specific situation, there are some VPNs that try to hide that you are using a VPN. I think proton has something like that. I forget what it's called. And you could technically go VPN on VPS and get a much easier time but you'd have to switch it out all the time if you wanted anonymous-at-server browsing, and you'd have to pay for the privilege which comes back to privacy as luxury.

VS is great. It's what Terrafirmacraft would have been as a game instead of a mod, and it has a fairly vibrant modding community of its own. I'd still like to see some more development on it but it's great so far.

Chonky and fat are the same thing. Did they mean floofy?

That one goes there. That one goes there. And that one goes there.

Neither. I just never hear they are going to happen, only that they have happened. The earliest I have heard of any of the recent protest actions was while I was at work and reading that it was already under way.

I hadn't really considered the sex of the authors in what I've read, but looking at my shelves and picking some feminine names in the genre:

  • Jacqueline Carey's Godslayer duology (Absolutely amazing. Plays with themes of morality, religion, and war with a deep lore to bring it to life) I've only read the first two of her Kushiel's Legacy series but I've enjoyed those as well.
  • Trudi Canavan's Highlord's Apprentice trilogy (not the hardest or heaviest read but quite fun)
  • Margaret Weiss and Tracy Hickman's Death Gate Cycle (7 books, massive story with woven storylines and a wild lore creating a world with its own redefined science)

Your username in YELLING CAPS combined with the mundane comment made me chuckle.
