It's interesting how people have different interpretations of mwmes. You took it as a reflection of a perfectly normal good thing, while I took it as a perfectly normal bad thing.

Iny experience, "put it on the backlog (and never look at it again)" is the response to someone raising a serious architectural problem.

I'm a Senior developer, and I'm still playing the part of the Junior in this meme.

I hate it when people insist on leaving their trash lying around where I work.

It looks like it figured out sarcasm. That's pretty advanced cognition. Many humans can't process sarcasm!

Basically, I read this as, "if this is all you have, you're in bad shape, bud. If you're testing me, f**k you!"

Basquistan.

The Basque population finally won their freedom, and carved out a bit of France for some elbow room.

I wish I had that much fun moving furniture.

I'd move furniture a whole lot more often - I'll tell you that much for nothing.

While the irony of the distraction of most of them along with the rest of us would be briefly enjoyable, I wouldn't wish it on anybody.

I am irked by the fact that some of them are actively seeking to trigger a real Armageddon, though. That group should be handled with extreme prejudice.

Yes, I was indeed working on the already defined context. Radio shack would be my choice, too.

You didn't read revelations, did you? When he comes back... Let's just say it's going to be a rough ride.

That is a good reason. It almost compensates for the fact that when he does come back, most everything is going to hell In a handbasket.

So, I'll go with another option, thank you.

Too late... Le sigh.

Look into JMP.CHAT. it's XMPP, with a phone number that is gatewayed to PBX for voice, and can send/receive SMS.

I'm guessing it's saying Excel is the basis of almost all financial documentation?

I am compelled to point out here that one does not have to go with a variable rate mortgage. I would say one should never go with a variable rate mortgage for exactly the reason you state.

Additionally, rent is insane. One might not find cheaper rent, without getting help from the state. And if you make more than $60,000 a year, good luck with that.

The fact is, those of us outside of larger cities, we don't have a lot of options much of the time. There is no small business hardware store here. Not anymore.

Even those of us who live in areas with "lots of options" don't have lots of options. I regularly (less so lately) waste days calling or driving to stores that should have what I seek, find nothing, then end up ordering from Amazon anyway.

I'm aware. I considered using it when I upgraded the hardware. Good to hear it is solid. If that is the consensus, I might switch, eventually.

It's perfect conditioning to accept authoritarian rule, and constant surveillance as normal.

Systems like DSM from synology have integrity scrubbing to fight bit rot. Run it once a quarter on a 4 drive, and you're protected. Plus, you should be backing up your data, even with RAID.

BTRFS, last I read, had lots of complexity and weird problems. Hopefully, it has improved since then (about 3 years ago).

No, he'd be in the same state, as he can't support himself anymore, and possibly worse because he does not have someone to help him and/or give comfort.

She'd be in the same state because she would be married to someone else who had similar problems, or worse if she were a spinster. Back then, women didn't have a lot of options to support themselves.

A hobby or a passion is not a job you do to keep a roof over your head and feed your family. You also probably don't live in a communist country where you are compelled to work at low wages and wait your turn to get access to meager supplies for your crochet.

Yeah, I get that. There are bad apples in both genders. The problem is that the court system appears to assume things that puts men at a significant disadvantage in outcomes when marriages don't work.
