A burger for Americans
Yeah, but now they can be sure that anyone arranging an Arab spring in the kingdom of Saud will be banned within the hour.
It doesn’t have to be xitty. Change the name, ban the racists, recruit new staff who have twitter on their CV. And if it fails, you’re only out the $3.50 it’s worth now.
Necessary jobs are mostly farming, mining, manufacturing, and customer service.
And elder care, which is set to be a real growth industry
Reminds me of a joke told by an old Polish priest from his time in the Soviet Union.
A party official is sent to a village that hadn’t been meeting it’s quota.
He meets with the mayor and tells him "Trucks are coming tomorrow. The central committee has decreed you will fill them with your potato stockpile.
“As you say Comrade” says the mayor, “our potato stockpile is stacked high enough to reach God.”
“God?” Retorts the official incredulously “There is no god in the Soviet Union!”
The mayor shrugs “There are no potatoes either”
I’m not sure the corporate lockdown will allow that, but I’ll look into it thanks.
You don’t have to look right at it
My desktop isn’t a problem, but the Dell laptop issued by my employer is a pain. It can take over an hour to load the models I work on, so I only shut down over the weekend and sleep it weeknights. Every time some BS, probably hidden behind admin credentials by IBM will wake it up within 20 minutes. Luckily I’ve discovered pulling the power and leaving it in battery keeps it asleep.
Would hate to be the member of the cabin crew who has to clamber down the gear to fit the chains during final.
When I had my house reinsulated last year I took the opportunity to run cables from every room to a small closet, and then a run from that closet to the router. Had some… experience, learning how to wire in the sockets, and right now only my office is connected with a bit of patch instead of the switch I’ll eventually need to get the other rooms live, but it’s so much more reliable than it was with WiFi or poweline. Not to mention that those technologies only just kept up with the 36Mb VDSL I’ve been stuck on for the last 10 years. Having ethernet means I’ll actually be able to get the most out of the 500Mb FttP I’m getting next month.
So it’s more profitable than Xitter?
These people would loose their mind if they ever saw a traditional British Christmas Pantomime
If they simply forbade resale, it would be an unenforceable term. The obligation on them to buy it back (at an agreed price) in order to enforce the term likely makes it legal.
Sure, but the engine bleed air would have been constantly replacing it, so it’s plausible the cabin altitude lagged behind the aircraft altitude.
Unauthorized persons discover this one weird trick. Fat controllers hate them!
I was at the coast in the summer, not far from an offshore wind farm, and I didn’t see a single whale in the sky, checkmate libs.
When I was at school, the bus was a charter from the company that ran the local public bus fleet. Every other time it was running public routes or just part of that companies reserve.
But this was in the UK, where dedicated school buses are exceptional.
Don’t worry about the sun expanding to swallow earth! It will gradually get hotter as the core uses fuel and contracts, rendering earth uninhabitable within just 1b years (if we don’t beat it to the punch)
Thinking about it, it would be nice if when formatting a partition on mlc based drives, you could specify the number of bits per cell used. So an 8tb QLC drive could be formatted as a 2tb SLC for those who want the resilience, without having to commit to it permanently.
I’m sure there are technical reasons that would be difficult, but everything started out difficult until we figured it out.
