I was thinking the same thing. Kinda wish the conveyer belts would just fling them off into oblivion or something for me.

You must be new. This is America we are talking about.

Who could possibly be motivated to do such a thing??? Hmmmm

Depends on the exam. Some don’t even allow programmable calcs because they don’t want to deal with possible shit like this. I have already seen a certification exam where they provide the calculators as well.

I’ve had to provide my transcript for several job applications. Government ones seem to usually ask.

Yeah that JD Vance look. Smoke show!

Recent discussions tell me I better put the old /s in here…

We are talking about lawmakers making this demand. They don’t have a fucking clue what the difference is between all these possibilities.

Quick! Everyone change your name on LinkedIn and populate the info with some really stupid bullshit. I deleted mine years ago but I’m considering signing back up as Sir Farty McLovefarts who mysteriously looks very similar to Leon Musk.

Me too. My SO is too fucking nice. I love her for being so nice, but I caught her giving way too much personal info to some random solicitor. When I asked her why she would do that she “felt bad” for him. Nope, not having that, and the sign has worked wonders by preventing all contact in the first place. Can’t feel guilty if you don’t engage.

Now this is some boomer humor

Alright so if I was the leader of a country and looking at my enemy country’s election I would consider saying I support someone who I don’t want to be in office so that people vote for the person I do like. But then again maybe I would know that people would know that so I would choose to support the opposite person instead. But then I think to myself “they probably know that I would know that they know I know what they know. And knowing is half the battle.” And realize G I Joe might just fuck himself up regardless of who I pick so I just choose a side and laugh about it because it doesn’t matter who I choose, only that I’m saying something to fuck with that entire country.

G.I. JOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Looks like Florida DEP, so you are right, I had the wrong agency. That still seems like a place that should have protections against retaliation. Crazy shit, I hope someone gives this guy a better job for standing up for what’s right.

Are EPA employees not protected from retaliation? There are tons of laws protecting employees from retaliation for reporting things to agencies like the EPA, DEP, OSHA, etc. Seems really weird the people in those offices wouldnt have the same protections

Well I play video games, and woo boy, let me tell you about microtransactions, crap DLC content, season passes, never ending early access, unfinished releases, and anti cheat root-kits! If you’re on console you pay a premium to play online, if you’re on PC you have 18 different game launchers and DRM bullshit. Digital only stuff means you don’t own your games, cant loan them or trade them or sell them. I’m sure there’s more, and admittedly there’s good with the bad. Graphics have come a long way, and some rare innovations are fun to see. I still have fun with it, but wow it is a fucked up landscape full of way more land mines than it used to be.

This copilot bullshit installed itself on my PC recently. I couldn’t uninstall it fast enough. I wonder how long before it magically reappears. Ugh, just go away with this shit

Pretty much this - depending how much surface area and how good the glue is you might get it or you might snap that right off too. If it fails the next step is to carefully drill the screw out. A somewhat riskier operation but itll get it open

So once upon a time this was a thing…

Xerox it.

Tape a show.

I saw someone once suggest we popularize saying “Bing it”.

Or sour cream. Then slam that on everything. But mostly potatoes. And dip all other veggies in it.

The key word is relative. Relative to the working class? No. Relative to his peers, the many politicians taking advantage of kickbacks and insider trading? Absolutely.
