I literally woke up at 11 am, saw the results and poured myself a glass of whiskey (I’m currently unemployed). Now I’m going to buy some weed.

“Please help exonerate us! We totally had the right to shoot someone because they didn’t pay $3.50!”

Or Google/Reddit/Meta.

Me and at least two more of my coworkers (we got laid off at the same time) weren’t software devs, we’re Linux Sys Admins/Engineers. No one is safe.

with layoffs low

🤣🤣🤣 Tell that to the million or so tech workers that have been laid off en massé the past year! My friend’s friend was a Senior Software Developer at Oracle for years and just got laid off a few days ago. Disney laid me off last year and I’m still looking for a job.

Meanwhile in Miami it’s a low of 82 and a high of 89, with a feels like of 100 everyday because of 80% + humidity until the end of October. My apartment is in a newer building and is well insulated. I forgot to turn on my AC two nights ago before I passed out for the night. When I woke up around 10 AM it was 71% humidity in my apartment 🥵 I walked around outside for about 10-15 minutes yesterday in basketball shorts and a light T-shirt and was dripping in sweat.

I’m gonna say “drive the train”

I don’t remember the exact model, whatever one came out like 2 years ago.

I’m confused why she was there in the first place

SmartTube for Android TV is a must as well

Smart Watches are pretty much garbage. I was contemplating getting one for years, but always decided against it. When I got my S23 Ultra about 2 years ago, they gave me an offer of a “free” Gear 3, but I had to pay $5/month for the LTE service. I decided it was a good deal and accepted.

It wasn’t. The battery on it doesn’t even last 24 hours so it’s always dead at some point when I would like to use it other than just to tell time, the UI is clunky, and the cell connection is slow as hell. Attempting to download an audiobook via Audible takes like 5-10 minutes.

I’ve had YouTube Premium since the days when it was called YouTube Red, so like a decade. I’ve grown used to not seeing any ads from Google and anytime I watch a video not using my account it’s torture.

A lot of creators have just turned into corporate shills. I stopped watching ETA Prime’s channel about tech reviews because it was becoming pretty clear that mostly everything he got was paid for by the company. Also, most creators are putting their own ads into their content.

So it’s not as bad as it seems, at least.

It’s literally called On Writing IIRC.

He was high as a kite/drunk as hell for at least the first two, the rest he was sober/recovering since they were written from 1991-2012. He got clean in the late 80s apparently.

The Gunslinger was actually one of the first things he wrote, even before Carrie, it was a short story that he wrote in 1970, and then was submitted to and published in a Sci-Fi magazine in multiple parts in the late 70s, and then sat on it for a while. The Gunslinger as a whole wasn’t published until 1982, and then re-released in 1988. The Drawing of the Three was released in 1987.

I see what you’re saying, but if you randomly come out and say “Here, I got you an Amazon gift card out of the blue, buy whatever you want” after they did something like this they’re going to know whats up. Also, I’m pretty sure most dads would rather not have that thought in their mind when they see an Amazon box addressed to their daughter and she runs to her room to open it up. I’m 38 and my dad is your typical “Dirty Old Man” that started making sexual comments about women around me when I was like 13, but I don’t think I ever felt comfortable talking about anything like this around him until I was like 19 or 20.

Nope! He essentially just changed the name to something more wholesome sounding. It’s apparently been a thing for decades.

Or totally creep out your kids. “OMG dad knows what I’m doing! And he wants me to keep doing it apparently, I’m going to fucking die.”

It would probably be a lot less awkward coming from the mom. I feel like it would be like a father having the “period talk” with his daughter (obviously this happens in the case of single dads but that’s not the point I’m making), it’s super awkward for both parties involved.

Essentially what it comes down to is that the manufacturers don’t have to give you the experimental treatments. You can request them, but there’s nothing forcing them to comply with your request.
