- Comment on Why do cops still ask for registration during traffic stop? 1 day ago:
The police are prosecution. They claim they don’t have quotas, but with any job, there are unsaid quotas.
I worked in IT help desk, and I was told our department wasn’t opening and closing enough tickets to justify our department’s existence. So I changed the sensitivity of our network monitoring system for our SDWAN and wrote a script that would automatically create a ticket and close it pretty much if a single packet was lost. I was hailed a hero as the bean counter CTO wasn’t going to review the actual tickets, but he got the metrics he needed for the meeting.
This kept a team of 14 quality support technicians employed. This stupid trick I rolled out over a weekend kept families fed for a good five years, delaying the inevitable layoff.

I have nothing to sell you, but seoul is simply destruction.
Not the same as the Norse Hel. Europeans tried to translate the Bible, and it got convulted. Then even further, it was purposefully manipulated.
Just a facepalm after another.
The story of Jesus is actually very interesting, as well as the story of Satan. I mean, if people understood the story better, Disney would buy the rights.

And by destroy, I mean simply cease to exist. Exactly what atheists expect, and only using the group to point out their approach.
The fire and brimstone for all eternity shit?
Someone tell me where that is in the Bible.

Honestly, if you get athelete’s foot, piss on your feet in the shower.
More fast acting than tinactin. Again, not joking. I suffered for months until I got that tip from a paraplegic who was an athlete previously.
Worked like a damn charm. I miss that dude.
And he could do pull-ups like it was no thing. It was amazing to watch him get out of bed.
But anyhow, pee on your feet in the shower if you have athlete’s foot. Instant relief, and cures. Pissy Life Pro Tip.

Catharism says that the Old Testament “God” is Satan and Jesus was the real God who entered Satan’s Earth and said, "Don’t listen to this shit. This is fake. Just ignore it and love everyone.
“I will return after this world has turned to shit, and I will save those who understand the real point, and leave the rest of you to reality, giving you eternal life. Then I will return again and kick the fuck out of Satan after you have had a thousand years under his hellscape and then decide to either forgive you and bring you home, or simply destroy you, because you still didn’t learn your lesson.”
- Comment on Do millennials keep looking significantly more youthful than previous generations? 6 days ago:
You know, it depends. I went into a bar and the female bartender carded me. I would have gauged her at 50+. She was amazed I was three years older than her.
She was 38.
And on dating sites, I see women who at least claim to be a couple of years younger than me, but definitely look mid-fifties, some I get like, “you look like you could pass as my mom” vibes.

Shit was rough. Break the cycle. Be the change you want to see.
- Comment on How come fat chance and slim chance both mean the same thing? 1 week ago:
A fat chance means the odds are so wide it would be impossible.
A slim chance means the odds are tight but there is an actual chance.

Developers don’t decide who acquires them.
That’s why it is sad. You have a really good team and the money hungry management sells them out. That is sad.
- Comment on How come manufacturers use base 10 units when calculating the space of a hard drive? Giving you 931GB per TB Hard Drive. Why not advertise the number windows reads? 1 week ago:
And you are correct, and to add to it, your formatting information also takes up space. But your point is far more pertinent.

You had me until the end. If Cat5e has been ran, then you just need to reterminate both ends with proper keystones.
The annoying thing I find with electrians is that they will use style A, so fucking annoying. Use B. Sun Sky Grass Dirt, then swap the green and white with blue and white. Boom.

This isn’t a matter of making capitalism “go away”. It is a matter of pulling in the reins.
Isn’t that the porn industry?

- Comment on Tech hobbyists, How are you avoiding the crazy prices for computers and newer tech? 3 weeks ago:
Been in IT for 25 years. This is the greatest perk.
I worked for a hospitality company, fortune 500, who had acquired us and had never had an IT department before.
I still have boxes of Cat5e from the wifi installations, who said to pitch the cable into the trash.
I also harvested a switch with just one bad port (48 port cisco catalyst) and when they decided to upgrade the call center with new PCs and were throwing away the old pizza boxes, we were all stuff our cars. I built a cluster, just because, but then started reinstalling Winders XP on them and giving them to friends, family, or selling them dirt cheap to acquaintances.
- Comment on Just found this behind a wendys dumpster 3 weeks ago:
The responsible thing would be to launder it and then move it into an umbrella company which is based in an off shore account, hire yourself, and then use the earnings from the interest to pay school lunch debts and build shelter for the homeless.
- Comment on What is your interesting fact or knowledge that is completely useless that you wish to share? 3 weeks ago:
Ketchup, or catsup, which is the same word latinized differently, was a fish sauce from China.
The western Europeans and American colonists used the recipe, and expanded it to things like mushrooms and many other ingredients. (for proof, look at the ketchup entry on wikipedia).
Tomato ketchup (which is specified on your bottle still today) wasn’t invented until we realized that tomatoes weren’t poisonous despite their color, and their sweetness and tang totally rocked with the ketchup recipe.
Now we use it to eat frenched fries, which aren’t French! In fact, they are Belgian, and are named because they used a cooking technique invented by the French called “frenching” which has evolved into deep frying.
So, you are dipping your belgian potatoes into a chinese sauce that use a North American fruit as a base.
And with this information, you shall father nations!
