All the tacos you could have picked, strumming softly to sheet music 🎶

Yeah this is my first time hearing this. I don't care what the kids are saying, crew socks with pants and ankle socks with shorts.

I've been trying bud :(

Hey guys, stupid question. With the supreme Court going haywire... Is there anything I can do other than vote? What are our options here? How do we change?

I'm depressed and frustrated.

Terrible situation. I had a temp come work for me that had fled from Ukraine. I judged the situation at first, but I considered what I would do in his situation. I'd like to think I'd stay and fight, but we only get one life. My guy was just trying to to survive.

My building has these and 2 of them failed in the first year. Can't replace the battery so had to replace the whole thing.

Myth busters had to be the worst offender in that realm. "here a 2 minute recap of that things you just saw 5 minutes ago."

I think we say developing countries now.

I feel like essays are where teachers bump up the kids that don't do well but still try

Those bad boys are concrete lol.

Yeah older Subarus are mint. I noticed Honda has been less reliable in general as well when I was shopping for cars. My first two cars were civics and both were great but I've heard mixed things (consumer reports) on the newer ones. I miss old Japanese cars... Simple and reliable.

I can attest, my mom has a 2017 Impreza hatchback with a manual transmission. In the first two years it was in the shop like 4-5x for various issues, the main one being wiring harness for the engine.

I've driven it a handful of times and it's a fucking pile. She regrets buying it... the shifter vibrates horribly, the car constantly shudders like it's going to stall, the interior is awful hard plastic, everything looks and feels cheap, and the car is PAINFULLY slow. The first time I tried to drive it I was literally flooring it and it felt like it was barely moving. Eco mode was off, it's just a slow car.

I'm never buying a Subaru and I recommend against it if it ever comes up. I almost bought a new WRX but after seeing what my mom went thru I got a GTI and it's been reliable. Cheaper at the time too.

Same here, I still do a lot of complex problem solving and modeling but excel/python handles a lot of the dirty work for me.

My favorite is summoning salt.

There's a place right by my house that does full English and it's heavenly.

I had a plaintext guide from gamefaqs that I printed at a friend's house because we didn't have internet lmao.

Got me thru it but I have no idea how.

Try smaller businesses maybe? Corporate isn't for everyone.

I got hired for two simple tasks and quickly realized the company (being small) was lacking in a lot of areas I specialize in or am passionate about. I started doing all these extra things and I got a lot of recognition and $$$ in return. I also don't hate my job, it's a small team and we all get along great.

That's something, lol. I'm not irreplaceable but it would be an absolute clusterfuck if I left, at least for a while.

I do a good job of documenting everything but so much of my work relies on scripts that I wrote and never properly deployed - a mix of python and VBA, and all my reporting relies on an API connection that nobody else maintains and other than a handful of queries I shared, nobody really knows how to use it.

I'm not trying to be shitty but it's job security.

Probably when you book from browser cookies?

You could get around this but 99% of people won't.
