Dayum, I’d let her Floyd me.

This is what toxic masculinity looks like.

Hannah Poly would have been a more fitting name for her.

Would it actually matter, though? To you, I mean?

What headline?

Told a woman when we were alone under a perfect starry sky “I’d really love to kiss you right now”.
She hit me with “I know”.

Any roadblock in using a social media will turn off 90% of the users.
Which means the creators will be gone, too.
Sure, you could connect to it via VPN, but most of the content you like won’t be there anymore.

Same boat here. A recruiter gave me the advice that staying at a company for less than 2 or more than 7 years sticks out and makes them suspicious.
If you switched after less than 2 years, how can they rely on you sticking with them?
If you switched after more than 7 years, are you flexible enough? And what actually forced you to switch now?

To be honest, when you continue to work for the same company, your knowledge will also only grow by +2% to +4% per year.
You’ll be the go-to guy for a number of things, all of which you’ve done a thousand times. Doing something else will decrease the team’s efficiency, cause someone else is the go-to guy with the expert knowledge on that.
And you only work within the context of your company, without getting exposed to how other companies do things.

It takes a certain soft skill to break out of one setting and hit the ground running somewhere else, which most don’t have. And after you switch, you bring a valuable outside view into whatever company you enter. That’s part of the reason you can demand more at a new workplace.

Staying for a long time in one place also offers comfort and familiarity, which have value for people, especially with families.
Employers need to pay more to make up for that loss in “value”.

bullshitting other people

France has its own independent search engine, Qwant.

Is this meme an autism test? I can legit not tell if this is good or bad, or what emotion the pic is showing.

But at what cost? The fiscal expense is impossible to calculate. One attempt by the Centre for Strategic and International Studies, a think-tank, estimated that China spent over 1.7% of GDP on industrial policy in 2017-19, which would add up to over $3trn in today’s dollars if sustained for a decade. That money could have been spent on other things, such as health care, which might have better served the public

Or they could have funneled those trillions into the private pockets of a few billionaires.

Why does the school need to rethink things?
It’s in their interest to get rid of the items quickly so they don’t have to store them.
Who gets them doesn’t matter to the school.

Doesn’t have anything to do with ignoring.
All my problems actually go away for 5 minutes when I listen to this:

I hope you’ve paid the difference in taxes for a video camera.

With Gnome you have no other choice.

No, just did a few adjustments to ween myself off fossil fuels when Russia invaded Ukraine. I can power and heat my home from renewables and wood from my own property, and don’t own a car, but otherwise I live a boring normal life working as a sysadmin. The horse riding is a hobby and checks went out of fashion here in Germany when I was a child.

If that’s your idea if fun, I can recommend the game My Summer Car. It’s basically a simulator for Finnish country life in the 90’s.
You spend most of your time drinking, going to the sauna, driving a crappy old Datsun hatchback (which you first have to rebuild in excruciating detail) down country roads, and adjusting your car’s carburetor.

I’m heating my home with wood I chopped myself and have literally ridden into town on a horse once, but I’ve never in my life held a check in my hands.
