  • Yes! Got stopped by mine one day at the end of my shift going out the main entrance and he just kept talking for about 15 minutes. I was making it pretty obvious I'm off and trying to leave by even putting my foot in the door, but he just would not stop talking.

    Now if I see him I just make a quick detour and use the other exit.

  • From the article,

    "Along the way, they can be exposed to detention, deprivation, torture, trafficking, violence, exploitation and rape."

    Jesus, this is depressing. I only hope there is something that can be done in order for these children to reach their destination safely.

    No child should ever have to endure this.

  • I'm currently using a pixel 6 pro. I took a long break from Androids. The last one that I owned was a S9 Plus.

    I love the screen with the high refresh rate and it's really responsive. I also love the live translate feature and all of the neat AI tricks that it has as well. I also was very hesitant because I've heard a lot about the battery life being bad, but the battery on mine is really good, as well as the fingerprint reader.

    The only thing that I dislike would be the grip of the phone. I played around with both the pixel 6 and the pro and I would have to say the regular pixel 6 has a better grip, but I love the higher refresh rate and display on the 6 pro.

    Edit: Oh and of course, the camera is amazing!

  • This right here! My commute is rather long. I spend about 2 hrs total of my day commuting to and from work. I could save so much time and money on gas if I was full time remote.

  • Yet they still want us in the office...

    I work remote twice a week, which is nice, but I seriously wonder why I even have to go to the office the other three days.

    Most of who I communicate with to do my job is not even in my location, so I'm regularly using Microsoft teams and WebEx. Also all the programs are accessible on my work laptop from home.

    According to this article, Microsoft has agreed to sign a legally binding agreement with the FTC.

    "Microsoft has said the deal would benefit gamers and gaming companies alike, and offered to sign a legally binding consent decree with the FTC to provide Call of Duty games to rivals including Sony for a decade."

    Now for the future, that I couldn't tell you what Microsoft would do, but I believe the Microsoft of today is all about bringing these types of services and games to all. I think if they were to end support and only keep call of duty exclusive to Xbox it would actually do more harm to them than good.

  • I agree. This is going on way too long.

    From what I understand of the merger it seems like it would benefit gamers as a whole. It seems initially the main reason to stop this was to block Microsoft from exclusive rights over Call of Duty, which doesn't seem what Microsoft is intending to do.

    Microsoft has even agreed to bring call of duty to Sony's Playstation for 10 years, and also to bring call of duty to the Nintendo switch.

    Maybe I'm missing something here, but I really don't see how this would hurt the gaming market, which is what is being argued here.

  • Depends on the exercise. My favorites are heavy squat and deadlifts. It's just a good feeling increasing the weight every week and hitting new maxes while getting stronger.

    I suck at bench so I'm never looking forward to that, but I've set goals to hit by the end of the year so I'm sticking to it.

    Honestly now, I feel terrible when I don't workout and it really affects my mental state.
