My ex wife did this last month. But she wasn’t drunk, nor was it just a text. I received a pic of her nude bottom half and the text: open if you want to visit.

I left it on “read”.

Amicable or not, this is just using the other person.

We shall hide in our secret places. Yes, hide.

Sounds like you are either not the target market or have no idea how to use LinkedIn. Properly used, you as a candidate have an arsenal of info you wouldn’t otherwise have, and the same for the company who can see your posts, your connections, your job history. It’s professional Facebook, all the grownups use it and it’s not just about connecting with people you don’t care about.

This is about building connections you can use later in life. Trust me, connect with that fuckwit John from sales, cause in 5 years he’ll be the guy that can connect you with the recruiter at the company you’ve applied with. You don’t need to like him or be best friends. This is business, not the playground.

My dog does this but also shows me her butt, which is an indicator for “come chase me dad”. Its cute, until its not. Heh

Pretty sad when religion claims to abhor evil, happens to be the source of a lot of it. Right? I can’t name a single thing religion ever did for me other than make me miserable.

WHAT?

Now some pros and cons to this lovely bad boy app, from one of the first beta users (me, if you were confused). The author posted a reddit link for signup and I was on it in a flash.

Pros:

• It’s near perfect if you want a linux terminal environment. Simple package manager, theme selector and so far more than enough to work in a virtual linux env on just the base install (alpine).
• For our more advanced users, you can load into there other “filesystem” of other linux flavors, but you mileage will vary. I was able to load Ubuntu and a very hacky version of gentoo. But… this is where you’ll see cons.

Now the cons:

• Its slow. I don’t mean you’ll be typing and keyboard buffer is full “slow”, but it’s not fast. Loading other filesystems has made it worse, so even I just “enjoy” alpine. This is not a daily driver, but I have used it to remote into systems and fix things while in meetings.
• For you iPad pro users with keyboards, the wonderful virtual keyboard bar, you know the one that pops up and bumps the whole app screen up a bit, yeah that one. Well, it likes to popup while you’re typing and sometimes while selecting, which breaks the line you were trying to select. This also happens to just make it so input is not longer allowed in the app. Aka, typing in the terminal doesn’t work. Oddly, the CTRL+D and CTRL+C keys are ok, but just plan on killing the app once you lose it. Doesn’t happen often, but wow does it happen enough that it’s annoying (especially while in vi).
• Beta is now full, so you’re stuck with Appstore version - i was never a great beta tester anyway but i tried to be good about reporting.

Now knowing these things, i still use it near daily. So, get it from the appstore or compile it yourself. Worth it if you need and better than ones like a-shell or even the ones that cost.

Yeah, I think I’m talking about the purposeful legal jargon used to deceive or be arguable vague and 20 pages long for no reason but to hide that fact. I’m all about precision, but it needs to be something an average person would comprehend if we were to adopt this method.

Not an original idea by far, but I was chatting it up with a few friends recently about this and we thought a civic duty term made far more sense (think jury duty). So much needs to be fixed in the process, like the bill riders addons (a horrible scourge to our political system) and lobbyist (scum). But imagine you were picked (randomly) to serve for 3 year stints, with those getting picked for a 2nd and maybe even 3rd term, serving as some Senior politician. Clearly it needs much more thought, but far better potential because you have to participate and accountable.

Before you knock it down, think about the intelligence required here. Boebert is an absolute moron. Bills before the system need to be something the average person can understand (legal verbiage is such a pointless waste and almost unnecessary). You would need to participate in collaboration with others, understand how to be honest and forthcoming with your goals.

We can’t hold Politicians accountable (not the system today) and this could be an answer.

Here in the US, I find most of my EU friends want to see the American Texan in the wild. Weird fetish, but hey, you do you.

I’ve been fussed at by my ex and a few of her friends for NOT supporting the “insert product” sold by friend x. Last one was Wine. This nasty ass shit gave me a headache from the taster, and you want me to spend $25 a bottle because, and i quote, “love red wine and it all tastes the same anyway”. Its a horrid spiral of preying on emotions and hopes and dreams, worsened by that one friend who happens to be up high enough in the mlm foodchain to make a ton of money “first” on all current and new mlm ventures.

I don’t have the wife anymore (unrelated) and I’ve dropped the friends that force mlm. I don’t miss them.

I’m what I call “mostly vegetarian“ which means that I choose to not have meat, but will eat small portions on occasion. And boy does that just piss off people like no other. Worse is I get it from both sides, to either commit in full or just give in to my natural instincts and consume more red meat.

Sometimes I just want a salad. Sometimes I want some bacon crumbles on that salad. Sometimes I want 3oz of fish with a plate of veggies. But what I can tell you is 3/4 of my plate will have healthy veggies or fruit.

Yeah. I have made them since I stopped going there. And far better than the box mix you buy at the store.

They tried all sorts of tricks actually. But this event brought people in. In the 90’s I’d see it on the local news about the hour long waits and whatnot. This was still true up until the last time I went.

I recall they slowed service, refill limits at a time, even type of order repeat(not getting 10 scampi in a row). I was a fan of the grilled shrimp and as a teen could eat 20 orders (a feat I’m not so proud of now). As an adult I stopped eating there when I realized what I was doing to my body (mid 00s).

I was never asked to leave due to the amount I ate, but I experienced some of these. damn if it wasn’t 5-10 minutes between food, couldn’t order more until you had cleared the only 2 plates allowed at a time, never find the waiter, etc. oh, and they would bring those ungodly amazing biscuits over, “to hold me over”.

I do not miss the man I was back then. I can honestly say I’m half the man I was then.

Uhh. I was inspired by a manager.

Just need to know the wrong people.

Rural? Ha! I live in a medium city, suburbs’ish, and 30 years ago I could go through the taco bell drive thru to get weed. This isn’t a new idea.

The Martian by Andy weir was my first experience of this. They re-recorded it with will wheaton and I “lost” my original with RC Bray. Though I will admit my version was part of the plus catalog, I still didn’t get a choice.

♫ When I was a lad I ate four dozen eggs, every morning to help me get large. Now that I’m grown I eat five dozen eggs, so I’m roughly the size of a barge! ♫

I’d take a bet you were a fast shower person. In and out in 5 min. I know I was just like that as a teen in a house of 7 people. Body odor problem was notable enough that I carried deodorant on me. I, like you, learned this simple trick later in life but shared it with my kids to help them through teenage years.

you’re supposed to let it sit on the skin for a while before scrubbing and rinsing

Part of this is due to the heat opening your pores on your body and the soap doing its job by cleaning out the bacteria and oils that cause the smells. Scrubbing also plays a big role too, lather and rinse using a scrubber!

Doing this has allowed for me to skip shower days and I just need to scrub my head/face to remove oils before bed. I still wear deodorant, but it’s lightly scented because otherwise I have a naturally strong orange(fruit) smell that can get overpowering (to me).

I know we’ve got some cold shower bros out there and don’t worry, this still works in cold showers, just over longer stretches of time. I know this because Mother Nature doesn’t often preheat her rivers while I’m camping, but I still stay fresher than my peers.
