Would not surprise me one bit to learn that your job is just to cover their ass. That you’re not deleting anything that hasn’t been backed up. But, if the shit hits the fan they can point to you and your records to “prove” they are deleting stuff.

I don’t trust billionaires at all.

Nothing is deleted, just your access to it is removed. Sometimes the wording makes this clear.

Laws don’t mean shit without enforcement.

Gherkins, or dill.

Don’t get me started on coconuts.

Too much time determining if you could. Not enough time asking if you should.

I’m a little surprised this reference still lands.

Most users have no idea that it’s much more than a video player. The interface is sofa king bad for anything BUT video playing.

Even just playing videos, it doesn’t have reverse step frame-by-frame, because they outright refuse to implement it, even though other players have had it for many years without any problems.

Cool, thanks. I’ll try it.

EDIT: That cleared out the apparently unused updates. I’m left with one. That’s an improvement on it’s own. Thanks.

I shop once a week, and get everything I need for the week. One trip, twenty minutes in and out. No processed packaged foods, mostly fresh and frozen vegetables, fruit, and organic chicken (no antibiotics). Zero food waste, because even fresh vegetables will survive a week in the fridge. On the last day before shopping day, my fridge is virtually empty.

I don’t like shopping, so I made it as efficient as I could.

Same here. My parents didn’t drink, smoke, or use drugs, raised four kids without religion, and loved us very much. Nevertheless, as a kid I found reasons to complain, but not many. It wasn’t till I grew up and heard stories of how others were raised that I realized how just good I had it.

I can think of two akshullies, but I won’t say them.

I had a co-worker in her early 30s, who was a former gymnast, and also coached gymnastics. She’d not only occasionally knock out a few cartwheels in the hallway, but she could also still do aerials.

The line starts at dusk. People stare at the ground, keep apart, and don’t talk.

Keep insulting your base, see how that goes for you.

At least as an orphan there’s some oversight.

“Abusive” can mean anything from occasional shouting, to locked in a closet and starved.

If as an orphan I end up placed with some fundamentalist Christian family, that would be worse than occasionally being yelled at, but better than being locked in a closet.

So, it comes down to what the person imagines “abusive” being.

“Let’s see how much abuse they’ll take. You know, for science.”

How this effect was created before computers…

You mean the movie that introduced the T-1000?

That there’s a gap between “it works” and “I understand why it works” and that gap is getting wider, not smaller.

20 years from now, important shit will go sideways, and no one will be able to fix it. That’s the world you’re building and that’s the world your kids will blame you for.

That’s a Hugh Jass car.
