I cleaned up when I moved, so the oldest gadget I have right now is a 15 year old MSI laptop, still happily running with linux.

First time of heard of SoundCloak. Pretty cool.

Holy shit his sex offender record is the first thing that comes up when you search his name.

I know someone who has an issue with his sense of taste that most things are bland to him, so he doesn’t really enjoy eating.

I was fresh out of college so was very susceptible to anyone calling for an interview invite. Got a call from a company I didn’t recognize and I was too innocent to not question how they even got my number. I dressed up and everything, brought my resume, etc. When I arrived, there was a bunch of us and then there was a presentation.

Yep, you guessed it, it was an MLM. It was the mid 2000s, so it wasn’t really well known as an MLM or pyramid scheme at the time. Hell, I couldn’t even understand why I was sitting through a presentation and not doing an interview. I realized it wasn’t a job when they started asking for money to commit. Barely 20 me still didn’t realize it’s a scam, but fortunately I literally had no money so couldn’t offer anything either way lol. After a lot of prodding, they finally let me go if I wrote down the names and number of 5 people I know. Then I realized that’s how they got my number. Someone in my circle went through the same thing and gave my contact info away.

I noticed I’ve been using “for sure” on in-person conversations often. Not on chats and comments for some reason though.

Sounds similar to the film adaptation of the Annihilation novel.

That went way better than I expected.

Dude didn’t even shower to save on water bills.

I just watched an interview of Karen Hao and she mentioned something along the lines of executives being oversold AI as something to replace everyone instead of something that should exist alongside people to help them, and they believe it.

It does happen in some third world countries. Not sure for LA though.

Clearly you didn’t read the post. You need to add filetype:pdf for the best results.

I grew up calling them “<color> ranger”. I don’t think anyone, at least in my part of the world at the time, called each member in full as a power ranger; only as a group.

Needs a recliner and tv and I’m set.

The first two things you need to do are:

• Make sure you are not going to be legally liable for keeping that laptop with you even after getting let go. It’s unfair, but even if it was their fault they forgot to take it back, you might get sued. You also likely agreed to return all office-issued equipment when you signed your contract with the company.

• After making sure the first point is clear, wipe it thoroughly in case there are tracking/monitoring tools on it.

Once both are done, then do whatever you want with it. Nobody cares if you install Windows on it or dual-boot it with Linux.

Crunchy is fine as long as there’s a generous amount of chunky chocolate chips.

You don’t hear the answer because I use “great question” to stall and deflect because I don’t know the answer.

Blows my fucking mind they can’t just deny a tranaction

They can, they just won’t because of those juicy overdraft fees.
