Express purpose probably saves them. The express purpose is to vent externalities

Some jobs offer days off but usually salaried positions.

We don't get an annual holiday like they do in the EU from what I understand.

Usually something like 2 weeks a year and that improves with seniority.

Some jobs are now offering unlimited PTO, but that is just a way to not pay us for our accrued PTO when they fire us.

I like having an unlimited PTO job for the ease of mind but I don't take more than 2 weeks off with it.

True, not sure why I didnt think of that.

Maybe I mean any money we have in our savings accounts.

That's just how retirement investments work. You don't look at a single quarter, year, or even decade, you look at your entire working life plus retirement. And the market has always been ahead at those time frames.

I feel like that is unfair without more data.

Did the boomers lose a decade of growth on their retirements?

Relative to them the gen x'rs and millennials have had 1/5 less time for their assets to grow (assuming you save for around 50 years) when compared to wealthier generations. And it was relatively early in their careers when the money would have the most impact.

People are already dying in ICE detention. How many for we need to call them death camps?

Death Camps.

We are so far along the nazi playbook we just need to invade Poland I guess.

This seems like a distraction to me.
Sure staging a blood sport in the capital is bad, but this seems like a (stupid) non issue.

Maybe we can take this opportunity to talk about all the blood spilled to construct the capital by slave labour.

You are right, but what if rampant inflation makes all of our saving worthless?

These constant cycles of boom and bust have also effectively lost me 10 years on my 401k.

I don't have the same faith you do that the market will even exist in 20 years, let alone my saving will do anything.

Sadly I've talked to 3 or 4 financial advisors and nobody has an answer other than "trust the market".

White balance is hard, probably Google made a different decision or something as simple as something (another person) blocking some light on one pic vs another.

I bet if op white balances both to the same they will look more similar.

Yeah but does lunch meat count?

I ate some pepperoni on pizza, that surely is doing damage.

I'm so scared how many people just keep on keeping on and have no cares.

Happened in the last few days. I logged out and back in but that didn't help.

Don't think I'm banned, I was able to make a post on my browser and haven't had any mail saying as such

 

Absolutely fucking insane

 

Is there a way to only show English posts when in All? I love our friends around the world but I can only read English right now

 

Anyone on Abilify (Aripiprazole) and smoke, are you able to get high?

I have been on Lexapro for years and started smoking a few years ago with no issues.

Now I added Abilify to my mental health cocktail and have noticed that I can get high anymore. I think I have a high tolerance, I graduated from black market flower to medical 510 thread concentrate to wax. I typically smoke 3 to 5 hits over a 4 hour period after work.

So other than trying a T break, anyone experienced anything like this? This really sucks.

 

I just got about 100 hours on HOI4 and I cant play it at all. I have to date only won a single game (since I picked it back up recently after release), but typically the second I get into war my divisions lack organization, supply, or whatever else and I get capitulated pretty quick.

Are there any mods that take a single concept (supply, army planning, division designs, etc) and help you learn those in isolation? I watch a bunch of YouTubers and try to follow their tips but for whatever reason I am still doing it wrong.

Interestingly, I bought hoi on release and was able to world conquest on my first or second try, so I am guessing new dlc/mechanics (supply?) are probably part of the problem.

 

I am starting to detangle myself from Google and one of the services I use is YouTube.

I learned that piped exists the other day but that is just a front end for Google.

Is there a tool that I can host on my server that will let me give it YouTube links, that will then download/stream to my server and then server to my phone or computer?

I guess I am looking for a tool that will cache my YouTube videos locally and even download my subscriptions when they upload new stuff.

I'm not sure what this buys me that Piped does not, except that I am backing up videos in case they are removed.

 

I am working on building a new server in my apartment that will have a reasonably beefy GPU and CPU so I can get PCIE pass-through working and get a gaming VM set up.

Trouble is, my apartment is in the attic in the south. With the AC on I had one or two really bad days last year that it got up to 90 degrees Fahrenheit inside with high humidity.

Any cooling suggestions for something like that? Is 90 degrees Fahrenheit still cool enough to reduce the temperature of my components? I would really like to avoid buying a phase change cooler, but that is the only thing I can think of if the ambient is too high.

 

I have been out of the Piracy game for almost a decade so im starting over.

Anyone know of good resources for "old" American TV shows? Late 90's to mid 2000's.

None for the sites I tried in the mega thread had anything.

 

I got a medical card here in LA and the prices are outrageous. Getting a dablicator with full spectrum oil seems to be the most cost effective. Trouble is I can't seem to figure out how to use it.

At first I just ate it but I think I wasted $90 because I felt nothing and I don't think it was decarbed.

Next I got some refillable 510 thread vapes and a small syringe to fill it. That has been a pain but it at least works a bit.

How am I supposed to use this stuff? Is it all the same or are there different kinds? Is it decarbed at all or not meant for vaping?

 

Hey All,

Hoping you can help me grok what he is doing here. He has a capo on 2nd fret I think and it looks like he is just using simple chords, but I can't figure out what his strumming pattern is. I think it is fingerstyle but I am at a loss on how to actually replicate it.

Anyone have any ideas?

 

Is there a way I can track how much filament is left on a roll?
Either an add-on sensor I can build or software that will track how much is used vs how much is supposed to be on the roll?

Have a Prusa Mk4 and it's working ok so far but been having trouble with very long prints so trying to figure out if my rolls have enough left
