The whole study is trash. A chimpanzee is not a monkey.
So this is where I’m confused because if I (an American citizen and resident) move to Japan, I can still vote. If I move to Puerto Rico, does that mean I can no longer vote?
I know someone who has been living abroad for 25+ years and he still votes in every election. I’m not sure if there is a time limit, but it seems to be long if there is.
It would make more sense to move to Ohio or Pennsylvania to try to swing them back to Blue.
To everyone saying “this isn’t possible for Google to pay” really need to take a step back and realize that there’s always a way.
Given the amount of money we’re talking, it would only take a tiny fraction of that money for Google to deliver a series of small asteroids directly to Russia. Depending on the asteroid, and the conversion rates, Russia might consider the debt paid after a single delivery.
Thanks, I did know that but I’m glad it is here for anyone else who may need to know.
No kidding, I pay less than $100 month to insure 2 cars with State Farm. I’ve never had an issue with them paying a claim, and my agent meets with me every few years to go over my options and every single time I walk away with better coverage and less payment.
I think I’m going to isolate my work laptop from my home network now though.
This is always a good idea. Your work IT department doesn’t trust you, and you shouldn’t trust them.
You know what, fuck off. Who the fuck do you think you’re trying to impress? I know my fucking job sucks, I know the company I work for sucks and I know that almost everyone who works for this company is suffering. So what, fuck me for not wanting to make it worse on everyone else who isn’t in a position to just walk off the job? I wish I lived in your dream world where you never have to do things you don’t 100% agree with, it must be nice, but for me I’m living in this shit and I’m trying my best to take care of the people who count on me. So let me say, just to be clear: fuck you.
Trust me, I don’t want to work here either, but having spent 6 months looking for a job and eating through my savings and knowing that I’m in no position to do that again anytime soon, I don’t exactly have many options. And yes, I’ve considered a union, but I also don’t want to end up unemployed again so I’m not going to be the one to champion that.
Don’t get me wrong, I fully know that it’s bootlicking shit and I hate it… but I have a family to support, bills to pay, etc. It is soul crushing and someone purposefully picking the most painful time to walk out only hurts their coworkers, because even if you choose to take a sick day when they walk out, the next day you still have to go in and deal with the mess left behind.
Except I don’t still get paid the same. Someone walked out last year and put the whole team in a tailspin and the rest of the team paid for it when review time came around and since we missed so many deadlines due to staffing issues no one got any sort of substantial raise. And missing your once-a-year raise doesn’t just impact your pay for that year, it impacts it for every year going forward.
I work for a real shitty company with a lot of people who do things just to justify their jobs. This leads to stupid mistakes happening that can cause MASSIVE disruptions for the entire workforce. One such stupid mistake happened this week and caused my team (and several others) a shitload of unnecessary work. Yesterday a guy on my team who works in an already understaffed office had enough and told me that he’s done, and quitting. I can’t blame him, he is in a very shitty situation and I wouldn’t have stayed as long as he has… but if he walked out it would have put that entire location, the rest of our team both locally and extended, in a much worse situation. What it wouldn’t do is hurt the company or the executives.
I’m all for people finding better jobs and leaving toxic environments, but it really does no one any good to pick the absolute worst time to walk out. That’s petty and will burn a lot of bridges, and depending on your situation and industry could come back to haunt you down the road.
Well, that really sucks the llama’s ass.
I’ve been thoroughly enjoying the Infinite Series by Jeremy Robinson. It is a masterwork of scifi, spanning several scifi sub-genres. Each book (that I’ve read so far) is only loosely connected to the other books - it reminds me a bit of early Marvel movies where at the end Nick Fury shows up. I had read Infinite, not knowing that it was the beginning of a series, and then when I found out I decided I would read the next book, but make no commitments to continue the series. I’ve not stopped and each book just keeps getting better.
I’m shocked that Apple didn’t just make the crease more obvious and consider it a design element and advertise it as something the consumer wants.
I used it after I was laid off 2 years ago and was able to find a new job after a little less than 3 months. Which sites do you have experience with that you’d recommend?
And to be clear, I found LinkedIn useful for job hunting… as a social media site it is horrible. Full of people who define themselves by their paychecks, salespeople who are just looking for someone to cold call, and ‘self-made successful people’ looking for success and validation.
~~Yes, it still stands… if Mossad is able to get to Hezbollah’s leadership that completely, I think they are likely more than capable of doing the same with Hamas’ leadership. ~~

~~Shit, you’re right… thanks, I’ve corrected it because my point still stands. ~~
See above comment.
Automatic1111 or DiffusionBee is probably what you’re looking for. Then you’ll need to grab some models from Hugging Face.
