Before eSIM, tmobile global data and text in 150 countries was the dream for my 5x trips a year. Now I just pop into the Eu and pick up a prepaid month European esim and spend €20+€15 additional month vs the $200 a year I was spending. Italy even has a deal in the summer now for €15 for 30 days.

eXistenZ! What a trippy movie. Adding to my watchlist for today!

Check out the sunrise times in the summer. 5am, we’re seeing dawn breaking. I’m not hiking in the dark, nor on a trail I don’t know. Also, flashlights help for those 20 min.

Ha, come hang with me in the summer on a Saturday. We’ll start climbing a 14,000 foot mountain (thats like 4600 meters for my EU friends) at 5/6am with intent on reaching the peak before 12. Why 12? Because the afternoon thunderstorms are rolling in and lets just say lightning is electrifying at 14000…. Well, at any height really.

Boring, never.

Yeah, that was a typo and my experience is limited towards the AWS side which is also facing this issue. But the numbers are there, some people have been at Amazon for a decade, so 20 months (if they had MY package of 2mos per year). Amazon was throwing everything at new hires, because they were making bank on their work.

They are getting severance when terminated, unless for cause. My comment was, this is how they avoid it by forcing people to quit.

Like many companies, they overhired in the last 4 years. Some of these people are due years of severance (my offer listed 2months for every year after 1 year), not to mention the vested stocks and other bonuses granted during this insane hot hire period.

So how do you remove people not loyal to the company? The most hated mandate ever. Amazon is a company that doesn’t need people in the office. This is nothing more than screwing people over.

This needs higher up. Lobbyists are a cancer

Ahem… Assembly is tired of being forgotten

Been there my friend. 30 years together, and she ended it without warning with a weak excuse. Took me a year to realize she was a drain on my mental wellbeing and I’m now better off. But, for the first 10 years I can say life was good.

Today, life is way better.

I have 5 pairs of Oakley square wire sunglasses that I’ve owned for almost 3 decades. Bought most of them with my first paycheck. I just replace the ear socks and nose pieces, and one pair has replacement lenses. I have never owned any other pairs.

New viewers, new cycles of endless, pointless, drama. Soap operas, YouTube dramas… football, soccer (real football), most American sports., video games, doomscrolling your favorite meta site.

Seriously, we all have our vices. The message here is that your kid wants to TALK to you. Connect with them. This drama is less important to them, just learn the player’s names.

Did you try to reboot?

Clearly you need to clean that thing first. Damn, grimey.

I remember when someone did this for Mac. this just ticks those boxes of someone who should be doing work, but doesn’t want to do work and feels like coding something to make you laugh. Heh

I saved them, adding death anniversary so I could remember them. Bit morbid but they meant a lot to me.

The Buttercreamer’s Gang, clearly a very obscure movie. Two of them, Actually.

If you grew up mormon, you knew the buttercreamer gang. Also, The peanutbutter solution.

• edit to add another obscure movie.

Minus 2 people. I’m back at a healthy weight and steady for a year now. Amazing what cutting out all the crap does.

This is not the same thing. In your case, only you are responsible and accountable for your actions. So no one but you can do anything with real penality. Now, if the FTC banned you from growing your waistline (wrong govt dept, i know), then there would be a potential fiscal penalty and maybe even prison with enough violations.

The right sarcastic comment should have been: I have banned my cute dog from jumping on people when they come over. because we know that i’ll fuss at her, but never punish her harshly.
