r/cat was like that for a while. Imagine being the database admin being responsible for a billion iterations of the word cat.

He has a license plate reader, he has facial recognition, he can read IP addresses from your cell phone or watch,”

Uhhhh.... How is it reading the ip addresses of people's phones?

Fortunately the gentleman at the front desk allowed me to switch rooms. For $200 a night, I'd like to not hit my head on the wall when standing up.

I have never broken a 10 mm wrench, but I have lost a few. So I bought a ten pack on Amazon.

Got a used HP Probook laptop. Just needs a new drive. HP specs say it has an m.2 2280 slot. So that's what I ordered. Guess I needed to look closer.

edit: Thanks for all the info, guys. Different types of keys are explained here. Gonna have to look for a sketchy no-name brand.

I have imposter syndrome, both at work and in my relationship.

I changed out the burner tubes in the propane grill. The first set of burners I got did not have adjustable air inlets. Ordered some different ones and the difference is surprising.

This is why they are called direct messages instead of private messages.

Are there other types of fruits that could go well with tomatoes in a salad?

Knauff, a veteran of Ontario’s provincial forest firefighting force, has been vegan for over 25 years. In 2017, he was working long hours in tough conditions fighting wildfires in British Columbia. According to non-profit Animal Justice, which campaigns for stronger animal laws, Knauff’s employer failed to provide appropriate vegan meals for him at the basecamp where he was stationed.

He was often served meals containing animal products, or nutritionally inadequate meals containing no source of protein. Sometimes no food was provided for him at all.

Despite repeated attempts to work with management to improve the situation, nothing changed.

After Knauff was disciplined and suspended without pay after expressing his frustration, he sued his employer.

I gotta side with him on this one. While his is a lifestyle choice, some people do have special dietary needs. If you want people to work in these types of conditions you have to take their needs into consideration.

Elon Musk is starting to go so far off the deepend that we may need to call in Britney Spears dad to take conservertership of him.

We don't have time to do it right the first time, but we will make just enough time to redo it wrong a few more times before the customer complains loudly enough that the boss pulls someone from another job which will now not be done right because we don't have time.

Why does the responsibility fall on news organizations? The government pages are not banned on Facebook. Use those to disseminate important information. If Facebook is really the best way reach your citizens then pay them a fee to pin a post at the top of everybody's feed. Or mandate that they do it as part of the emergency services act.

The cbc might be government funded, but the rest of the news media are not. Their job is to hold politicians accountable, not organize evacuation efforts.

Old guy here. Notice how highlighters dont have a pointed tip, but rather a slanted rectange. Black markers used to be like that. If you wanted a smaller line you had to angle it and use one of the corners.

Then sharpies came along with the pointed tip and everbody bought those instead. I cant remember seeing the old type any time recently, but I expect the crafts section would still have them.

This is like going to the drug store to an inhaler but their entrance takes you through the perfume section to get to the pharmacy.
