Unpaid time off sucks, I’ve been there too. The American economic system feels designed as if everyone has a full time job with benefits.
- Comment on [US] How are so many people able to protest? (Logistically) 1 hour ago:
In my life, I’ve held an array of jobs. Sometimes I’d just be off randomly on a Friday (because I’d have to work all weekend).
Some people in this economy are struggling to find jobs, so they can spare time to protest.
Speaking from my current situation, I have a bank of time I could pull from if I wanted to take time off. Many people can easily fake saying they are sick to get time off on short notice. Some people probably have cool bosses who will let them request vacation at the last minute. There’s a million possible scenarios.

Did I say it was smart? It’s certainly against Microsoft’s TOS and they could revoke your license at any time.
That being said, theft from a corporation is a little different than theft from your neighbor. You are conflating those two ideas by implying this is theft from an individual.

K. We aren’t talking about game theft, we are talking about a specific known issue that Microsoft has talked about. Thanks for linking to an unrelated article?

Highly unlikely. The grey market keys are clearly for large companies. You couldn’t purchase thousands of keys with a stolen credit card.

LibreOffice
Or if you can spare $10-20 you can get a gray market Office key

Appoint the new account and then remove yourself on the old account. If the account is inactive, you’d need admin help but it doesn’t sound like that’s the case here

Do NOT use soap and water on ports. Isopropyl alcohol is probably the only safe option
- Comment on How do you think a socialist President would win the 2028 election? Would they use the exact methods used by Zohran Mamdani which earned him the office of Mayor of NYC? 2 weeks ago:
How do I think it would happen? Someone is dressed as a moderate, then after the primary they have a huge press conference. They rip their skin off and reveal they are actually a completely different person.
- Comment on If I publish my memoir and wrote about every bad thing people did to hurt me while the people mentioned are still alive, how much trouble could I get in? 2 weeks ago:
Anyone could sue you. Do you have money to pay for a lawyer?
Also, a publishing firm would know the series risks with this

In the US, this depends on your state. Mine does not have front plates, most of the states near me do not, but one does

What could’ve happened?
Anything. Could he be dead? Unlikely, but anything is possible.
Did he win the lottery and go into hiding to avoid people begging for money? Even less likely but also possible.
Anything in between? More likely and also possible.

It’s called publication bias, idiots. Research that has no strong result doesn’t get published
- Comment on if you're offered a position you can use to advance your career but it involves people without boundaries, do you tell your maybe-future-to-be manager you don't want to work with those people? 2 months ago:
Putting up with unintelligent people is literally what everyone does at work. Only unintelligent people say shit like that

My dude, we’ve butted heads multiple times. Thatsbnote even really relevant to your fundamental misconception of what work should looks like.
Your post history is full of blaming others.
If everyone else is always the problem, sometimes you need to look at the common denominator

Eh, this is like “how to lie with data 101”. You want YOY growth, not cumulative since 1970. All this says is we had very few, if any, managers in 1970. Also, we need that green line to move more
