- Comment on Is it okay to continue to work for a (non-defense) federal government agency under an administration hostile to my own moral and ethical beliefs? 1 month ago:
Do you feel that your “customers” are the administration or the general public? Whom do you feel that you are serving in your job? Do you feel that the directions given to you by your administration are legal and safe and reasonable? Do you feel that the directions given to you by your administration cause a disadvantage to yourself or your “customers”?
You could try to clutch at straws to justify staying in your job. You might be able to reasonably determine that your feelings for your administration don’t affect the performance of your job. Maybe staying in your job is the best way to benefit your “customers” and obstruct the administration.
Only you can decide how you feel and what is an appropriate match for your own moral and ethical position.
- Comment on what's stops one from scavenging the best parts of old phones and putting them into a new one? 1 month ago:
Imagine you like the shape of the front of a Mini Cooper and the rear of a Ford mustang. You could take the paneling from the interior of a rolls Royce and the seats from a Lamborghini and make a really cool car.
Unfortunately, unlike modern standard PCs, phones are individually designed and built and even models in the same range can’t use each other’s parts or software.
Each component is designed to work with each of the other components and just slapping them together doesn’t necessarily make a new working product.

- Comment on How much should I expect to pay to have 40 feet of fence installed? 2 months ago:
Labour and materials depends on your country and location. Do you need to pay a ~bribe~ permit to local government as well? Will the neighbour on the other side pay half? Does it need to be painted?
Get a few quotes, ask for references of other fences they’ve built, and compare locally.
- Comment on why does every single flashlight have multiple settings that you have to scroll through? 2 months ago:
Rescued my daughter in the cliched flat tyre in the rain scenario, the flashing light was good to alert other drivers. I think it’s something that could be useful very rarely.

- Comment on Trying to contact them, in order to confirm that they deleted my account and not only closed it, will create a new account 3 months ago:
10minutemail.com or similar. New address for every query. Clogging up their system with bad data is their choice, not yours.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
Book the time as an appointment or consultation and just go. If your direct line manager makes a fuss, tell them it’s a doctor’s appointment. If you’ve got far enough that you recognise that you need help, just go ahead and do it.
