I lived with a buddy of mine who owned one of the first generation Keurig machines. We had problems with roaches cropping up here and there and we tried everything to get rid of them from diatomaceous earth to calling an exterminator but they always came back and we had no idea where they were coming from. We had assumed at some point that it was probably from an adjacent town home so we just dealt with them as they came and I didn't think much of them after that. Fast forward a year or so and I've moved out of the place. I get talking with my buddy about the old roach problem and he tells me that he found out where they were nesting when his Keurig machine stopped working and he attempted to open it up and they came pouring out of the machine. My buddy grabbed some roach spray we had stocked up on and drenched the machine in it to kill as many of the damn things as he could. He ended up throwing that machine away. I'm glad I switched to French press and moka pots forever ago.
I admire the students that are setting up book clubs for banned books. They are recognizing that they are being given a list of what they should read.
I feel that destroying it has garnered more attention for TST than they would have received had it been left alone.
This isn't about value for the taxpayer. It's about power. It's about keeping those peons in line.
Millennial here. I've always found random sex scenes obnoxious. It completely kills the pacing and pulls me out of the story. If you need sex for character development, you can much more easily allude to it and move on. The only time I can think of when it actually made sense for the story was in the movie Her and it was such a mild scene that didn't have any visuals.
Not seeing the option "Because fuck Microsoft"
In all seriousness tho, I use Firefox because it's not reskinned Chrome.
My hubby went in for an interview and was told he got the job so he told his other prospective employers that he was no longer interested. Before he could arrange a start date, they ghosted him. He tried to call but it went to an outsourced helpdesk that told him they would create a ticket and he would get a call back. No call after several days. He physically went into the place and the hiring manager seemed flustered that he was there and told him they would contact him. After two weeks from when he was told he would get the job, he finally got a hold of the guy he interviewed with and was told they gave the position to someone else because he was "unreachable".
Problems like this are the reason why I don't hold loyalty to any company unless they've proven their competency. The ones that are good rarely hire because the employees don't want to leave.
Could've done without the commentary. An acknowledgement of what has been accomplished is not a compromise of existing goals.
The design of this website is trash:
~~the government just confirmed aliens are real~~ another hack job with government connections is claiming that he was told by government official that alien "biologics" and space craft were recovered by the government without being able to provide evidence or details because it is "classified"
What a nothingburger
This is what the fediverse was created for. Casual transphobia doesn't need to be permitted and I fully support that.
Google search has enshittified far faster than I ever thought possible. It used to work like magic. Too bad capitalism dictates that usefulness has a ceiling.
