I professionally managed many buildings… A big part of that was pest control.
Let me just cut through all the things that we try that don’t work and just tell you what works :

I actually cannot believe you have any upvotes for this type of comment.
If computers and networking were not involved, and we lived in the 1970s, this would be the equivalent of setting off a remote bomb in every factory across the country for your former company when you get fired.

- Comment on 100% vegetarian 1 week ago:
This is known as a joke.
One of the most sinister problems is with fee-fee vegans and vegetarians, who in service of their ignorance, kill way more things to sustain their politically-motivated and fee-fee-based lifestyle.
I’m as close to vegetarian as my body will allow. I’m just calling the movement for what it is. Kill something with a face? OMG! Flatten millions of acres, farm them with diesel equipment, ship the product in trucks 2000 miles so you can have your vegan potato chips.

Metal straws have to have a rubber or other dielectric mouthpiece, or electrolysis sets up in the mouth and the electrical activity confuses the hell out of the taste buds.

This happened to the outer rubbery (soft plastic) housing on my bike U lock. For like 10 years it was great, then one first-ride-of-spring I grab it, and it’s like the entire thing was dunked in a pot of honey.

I’m just here to point out that I look down upon everybody, as I have some arbitrary consideration in my mind that makes me and the things I think, more next-levelier than all of you and what you like

Try working in social services.
All female-dominated services and agencies, the hatred against men is appalling.
The irony is so thick you could cut it with a knife.
In short, all systems of power, regardless of the identity of the people who make up those systems, reject ANYTHING that disrupts it.

- Comment on I'm doing my part! 5 weeks ago:
I’ve ranted in various places over the years but it’s 100% true in my city in Canada.
Decades ago we built a massive publicly-funded recycling system because the City could actually draw profit from the collection and sale of materials.
But about 15 years ago China stopped buying the waste, and it became a new shell-game of collecting the material but literally unable to do anything with it or sell it, so it any that gets does get sold mostly ends up in the down-stream recycling economy, where the bulk of it ends up being burned. The rest goes into the regular old landfill. Even waste cardboard has no value anymore.
People who separate recycling in our city now, are just pre-sorting it for the waste management company and keeping it out of their regular waste (profit) stream.
We do have our ewaste centers but knowing people that work there, I can say anecdotally I’ve been informed that the metal and rare metal waste is collected and sent for processing in Ontario, the rest of the bits (all the plastic which is 90% of eWaste) goes into the regular waste stream where it’s buried or burned, but never recycled.
Notice how Pepsi and Coke don’t use recycled plastic? If that doesn’t condemn the whole recycling “meme” as a sham, I don’t know what would.
- Comment on What is this shit? I have to be signed in to watch any video now? 5 weeks ago:
Nothing.
There is a massive gap between the aspirations of online consumers, and actual consumer behavior.
People will never ever support creators, that’s the bottom line. People are greedly little fucks and they like it. Don’t fool yourself.
I say this as a former massive streamer will millions of watched hours. People. Are. Shit.

I appealed (not because I actually gave a fuck) and they denied it saying it was reviewed by a human, it clearly was not reviewed by a human lol
Fuck that place anyways
- Comment on Reddit bought a giant ad in Paris, urging young french people to create an account 5 weeks ago:
I got banned for “advocating violence” in a comment that simply said “I work in support services and I can personally attest that women can be extremely physically and emotionally violent, and to continually portray men as ‘the violent ones’ in our society, we tacitly deny protection to all people”
Banned for expressing this horrid thought.

Yes, you have to imagine you are looking into a mirror at yourself and focus your eyes on that place; look past the image.

pick the first three, then always punch in your own version of “none1” “none2” “none3” as the answers. This isn’t rocket surgery.

Yeah well only a shit cook would think that oil coming off means bad meat.
I know that people don’t know fuck all about cooking, yourself included.
- Comment on The Steam controller was ahead of its time 1 month ago:
It failed because it offered too much customization. Really.
Physical construction was shit tier. I should know, I early adopted November 2015 and in total I went through 17 not counting the 3 DOA. My ear actually became attuned to the specific mini-crunch that signaled the impending demise of a shoulder button.
It also had undeniable layout and design issues. The D-Pad they implemented was a joke. Fanboys wouldn’t shut up about it but truth is, it was completely unacceptable to put a track pad in it’s place and it was more or less unusable. Other buttons and inputs were juuuuust a little cramped or off-kilter and it was common to input mash accidentally.
The configuration software was also a nightmare. Ever try setting up a Mouse Region for a twin stick game? Sweet jeebus. They tripled the efficiency of the configuration screens in recent updates and it’s still a nightmare. It’s 30 inputs just to tweak something like a deadzone, then you have to menu out… then test in game… then drill allllll the way back down to tweak a little more.
But back to my assertion at the top. It made SC gamers literally unfairly better. Gryo aiming, effectively programmable macros, mode shifts, radial wheels, action layers, targeted mouse clicks, button toggles, sliders, regions, I can’t even remember it all from back before it got heavily neutered. It got out of control to the point where you could bypass “cheating” standards and macros in big online games, etc. You could simulate inputs.
Design iterations would have fixed the other issues, but it became a deadly-unfair device for competitive gaming and a lot of companies hated how the Steam Controller hardware and software customization… basically allowed people to “cheat” their systems in a sense. It opened a huge fucking can of worms. Something like it will probably never be seen again for these reasons.

Throwing away animal fat and oil is failing at cooking
