They’re allergic to the Shift key.

People with Ph.Ds will sit down at a keyboard and drool out of the corner of their mouth while contacting tech support.

The article is from November 29 and the change is to take effect on December 4, which is a bit late for this post.

Are you aware of https://explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/496:_Secretary:_Part_3

A montage company just started doing that.

I make sure that I am on very good terms with them. I help them get the groceries into the car and I joke around with them. It helps that I am sincere and they know that.

I did when Smith’s had it. I found a lot of coupons that way.

Is it a truck? Or a car?

I agree. It’s part of being no nonsense.

I daresay that Kevin O’Leary on Shark Tank makes a good case for one existing.

When I did polls over the phone I dreaded the political polls the most because they were 30 minutes long and if they didn’t get finished then I got into trouble. Generally, 10-15 minutes is when I would be asked how much longer it would take. I didn’t want to tell the (full) truth so I would say that it would be a bit longer. Sometimes I would tell the full amount. A few people would be okay with it but some chewed me out.

The Jiffy Lube ones were only 5 minutes.

I have Tailscale setup as the primary connection with my local SSID as secondary. Works great and the Pro version is worth it.

That entry needs a ELI.

They eventually went bankrupt.

They could keep people from entering/leaving and suicide/(murder?) becomes much easier. Mass surveillance could also be built in.

They try to go into a relay center for the deaf and hard of hearing and they will be in so much trouble that they can not conceive. They would have to answer to Congress and a very large lobby who will take this very personally, no matter what law they try to present. Even the President of the United States can’t enter without consent. Law enforcement gets turned away, even with a warrant. I used to be a relay center operator and they were very serious.

When Windows 95 was in beta I would install it and next day it was dead. We finally realized that the BIOS was killing it.

What’s to keep someone from using a botnet to install tens or hundreds of thousands of installations?

I looked at C++ code and C# code and decided to go for C# because it’s actually readable for someone starting.

The Library of Congress?
