@grant_melson @JoeDiesAtTheEnd The new CEO slashed the workforce in half and demanded the remainder work twice as long or leave, giving them a couple days to agree to that. He also voided remote work contracts regardless of where employees lived. It will play out just fine.

@kittypurrzog Keep in mind bagel chips are bagel goodness with none of that water malarkey. Totally worth it.

@nickrusso42518 What product are you using it in?

[J Martinez @roulette06]

@LinuxHandbook I prefer dark themes, but if a monitor is in front of a window letting in lots of sunlight, a light theme is easier to read.

@nickrusso42518 If memory serves, Genesis says God made humans in his image and likeness, so even the Judeo-Christian god is humanoid. He also feels emotions like sadness, happiness, pride, and—of course—wrath.

Enough! @SenMarkey,@SenWarren,@RepMcGovern the Supreme Court is dismantling our freedoms. You must pass the Judiciary Act before it’s too late.

@nickrusso42518 This is a dreaded Kobayashi Maru event.

@nickrusso42518 “Everything” app for windows does a good job. I also like to use find or locate or grep in Mac/Linux/WSL. Alfred for MacOS also does a great job of indexing files.

@sylvanrhp @danieldibswe I’m sure it’s not a direct correlation for all businesses across all industries, but a company that gives raises has to make extra money somehow to support the overhead, and increasing prices is an option on the table. Or they can deal with lower margins.

@impl_u64 I read about these kinds of cameras. They change their MAC address to circumvent firewall rules if they received an IP address via DHCP. It might be trying to call home.

[J Martinez @roulette06]

@danieldibswe I wonder what goes on in such people’s minds. Intentions aside, it’s weird behavior.

[J Martinez @roulette06]

@nickrusso42518 In some cases. My daughter and a classmate have had painful experiences with nerves that cling for days. My daughter only drank broth for almost 3 whole days while waiting for an incisor to coke out. She was miserable.

Republicans are getting very upset people keep retweeting this ad so I figured I would post for any of you who haven’t seen it yet and then I am going to retweet myself tonight.

[J Martinez @roulette06]

@jessesingal I heard you reciting the rhyme to check whether a month had 31 days. I use the knuckles and space between them: January = index knuckle and February is the space between the index & middle knuckles. July = pinky knuckle and August = index again. Knuckle = 31 days.

[J Martinez @roulette06]

@manbearpiet @danieldibswe Now I feel seen.

[J Martinez @roulette06]

@nickrusso42518 Hey Nick, consider asking your doctor for a course of Paxlovid, the Pfizer antiviral pill. You can start it within 5 days of symptoms. I took it and helped me feel better much faster. I too am triple vaxxed and still felt crummy within a day of symptoms.

[J Martinez @roulette06]

@TracketPacer I didn’t mean you. I meant in the most extreme case. Two individuals tagged his employer to turn this into an HR issue for him. 😢

[J Martinez @roulette06]

@TracketPacer It makes sense that people who don’t read would think they have a lot offer and it’d be unfair for them to get passed over for not fitting into a mold, but piling on and trying to get someone fired over that opinion? You’d think he said only straight white males should b allowed.

[J Martinez @roulette06]

@TracketPacer There were plenty of people who engaged with Nick and indicated there were other means values to get to the ends values he desires in a candidate. But others preferred to cast him as a villain and get enraged for having a different opinion. God forbid.
