Unethical life pro trip. If you are installing windows xp through 7 and need a license key, just search on eBay for “Laptop Parts Only” and find an auction where someone was nice enough to post one.

Depends on where in the Midwest. It’s a big place.
My partner’s small hometown has a few local dishes. One is a Cream of Chicken soup Sandwich, which is awful IMHO, and seasonal fall apple spiced doughnuts, which are fucking amazing.
My town is a foodie heaven, but an hour away in any direction, and you better like fries and burgers, because that’s all there is.

Every day I worry about the Devil’s Pupfish. I’d like to see them one day, but I can understand why tourists aren’t allowed anywhere near the single pool where they still live.

More fiber.
Also, if you wait long enough, it won’t be a struggle.
Depending on how far you need to travel, just bring a 5 gallon bucket with a hole cut in the bottom. Flip it over and shit through the hole. Portable toilet.

Go to bed earlier
Never leave your tent open longer than the time necessary to get in or out of it.
Store your equipment in sealed containers when not in use (make sure to wash and dry it first!)
Self-inflating sleeping pad + better tent location solves the painful and damp sleeping conditions.
You can have an equally bad time staying at a hotel, if you do it wrong too.

I know it.
I’ve got a bunch of AVD machines and the Windows app seems to be the best way to connect users to them.
Although, in the last week, it’s been freezing for some people and I have to switch them over to the web portal for a day or two. Still chasing that issue down.

TBF, they are probably losing a little bit. I’m in the process of jumping to Linux, and I started on Microsoft operating systems at age 4.

Let me tell you about deleting a resource group in azure where it thinks and a non-existent resource in that group is assigned to a subnet that is also in that group.

This is the same company that has Outlook, Outlook.com, Free email app called outlook, and New Outlook… And none of them are the same fucking thing.

Saw a Dr.
Cost 200 bucks and he said to take a day off and shit.
JK. I’m pooping fine, thanks for the concern though!

Must be fucking up my 30s. I don’t do any of those things. :(

Also a good time to give up vanity for comfort. Wear flipflops with socks. Buy a travel squatty potty and take it everywhere in its branded bag.

It’s not too bad. You can get passable in a manual with less than a day of practice.
There are a lot of good tips in here, but I’ll add a few that seem to be missing/less prioritized.
Practice rev matching while down shifting. You’ll be a lot more comfortable with the car if you can get into a lower gear faster. This will allow you to pass and accelerate smoother and with confidence.
Practice recovering from a stall (although you’re probably going to do this accidentally anyway). Foot on brake, push the clutch all the way in, shift to neutral or 1st (I prefer 1st to get into gear faster), start the car, and get moving. This process should be fairly automatic and done within a second or two.
On that note, don’t worry about stalling the car. It feels terrible, and embarrassing, but it’s not really damaging the vehicle (might wear out the engine mounts a little faster, but no one really cares).
Most important, have fun!

Fulltime employment is not consistently defined across the board. Both of you may be right depending on which country or state you live in. Generally, in the US, full time employment is considered 40hrs of work per week, and has nothing to do with hourly or salary pay.

Also cite anywhere it states that the rights laid out in the constitution apply specifically to citizens only.

Von Braun was part of operation paperclip, and we definitely got an actual scientific benefit from bringing him to the US.

- Comment on Is it true that femboys are "fetishized" by right-wingers or something like that? Or is my friend(who told me this) tripping balls? 3 weeks ago:
I think it’s more like, “I’m not gay if a guy sucks my dick, but I’m gay if I suck his.”
To Republicans, being “gay” and giving pleasure are submissive, non-masculine traits that go hand in hand. It’s why they are so hesitant to go down on a woman, even though it would not be gay for a man to do so.

Kinks transcend political ideology. Roger Stone was famously into getting cuckold.

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time to plant a tree is right now.
But I don’t think that advice includes people staring at a fast approaching wildfire…
- Comment on Feds Threaten Wikipedia After Right-Wing Media Uproar 3 weeks ago:
They literally don’t generate any revenue. Wikipedia is quite literally the definition of a non-profit.
Also, trump is barred from running non-profits due to fraud in NY, I feel like that should disqualify him from making these kinds of decisions.

You’re telling me you can’t cross post links from Twitter to Bluesky and vis versa?
- Comment on If you're still on Lemmy... 4 weeks ago:
Isn’t that the exact same argument for Twitter? If Twitter gets shitty, people will just leave? Because I feel like we’re not really seeing that.

Yeah, I’m sitting here like “memes? Motherfucker most people didn’t have internet in '94”. The same year JP came out, everyone was distributing shareware copies of Doom on floppy disks.
