I’m a federal employee. Everyone falls in one of three categories: Exempt, Excepted, Non-Excepted.
Exempt people are expected to come to work normally and they are paid normally. They probably don’t really see a change.
Non-Excepted people are furloughed. They were sent home Wednesday morning and will wait it out doing whatever they’d like and they will get all wages that were missed when everything is over. They will be paid for doing nothing.
Excepted people have the worst of both worlds. They have to come to work because they’ve been deemed critical but won’t get paid for it until its over. I’m in this category. I’m doing my job but im taking my time to accomplish anything.
The law that governs this is the “Government Employee Fair Treatment Act” of 2019.

I can understand the frustration on most of your points except on this one:
…functionality that requires that phones have a glass back…
My Galaxy S24 has a metal back and wilelessly charges without issue.

…own them at $1 to $2 each.
Do you actually recieve DRM free files or are they still tied to Bandcamp? I understand we still don’t own the song with physical media but a policy change or new license deal at Colombia isn’t going to make the disc disappear.

Medium, of course. If I wanted it raw or burnt I’d do it myself.

Are you a transplant here or something? Those answers are all clearly side-by-side Liberty toes. Real Americans are born with that knowledge.

I used to mow starting no later than 830. I did it because that the only way to get done before it gets stupid hot.
Now I pay someone to do it and they typically do it Sunday afternoons.

Auto-saving works great except when I’m using an existing document as a template to make a new one only to remember 45 minutes in that I forgot to disable auto-save or make a copy to start with and the original document is gone.

Indirectly buyers are making a decision on anticheat. If someone buys a game with anticheat, they’ve made the decision to reward the developer for making the decision to include anticheat.

I’ve tried mewing at that guy’s grass clippings to see if I could speed up the process. There wasn’t a noticeable difference.
- Comment on How do you reconcile staying sane while keeping yourself up-to-date with the news? 2 months ago:
Sometimes its ok to skip a day off news. If I’m feeling beat up just from my normal day I might not have the endurance to take in the news too. So I skip it on those days.
