  • Halfway think I got extra points for my latest offer because I interviewed via MS teams from Linux and I said so when they asked about my experience with Linux.

  • Gonna echo the others here:

    1. Apply anyway.
    2. If you can do work in Linux without handholding for general tasks, you're "proficient."

    In my experience, imposter syndrome prevents the best candidates from applying because they weed themselves out.

  • What about the energy crisis Don?

    But that was never the real point was it. Solar and wind energy keep a few dollars out of the billionaire pockets, so we gotta cancel that.

  • Nearly same here, but mine is from 2010 and all I've ever done is replace the original starter cartridge of toner with a generic one once, and that was 12ish years ago and 2 cross-country moves. I've maybe printed a thousand pages ever.

  • Username checks out I guess?

    (Timezones are such great fun)

  • I had all four done with just a couple benzos and local anesthetic. Granted they were reasonably accessible and not impacted. I have vague recollections of making a pun while they were "elevating" one of the teeth. I don't remember the pun, and that's the worst part.

  • I think you will enjoy this recent episode of the This Machine Kills podcast.

    We discuss Quinn’s analysis of “new fusionism” or a mutant strain of neoliberalism that crystallized in the 1990s, which sought to ground and defend neoliberal policies through their own bastardization of biological sciences — cognitive, behavioral, evolutionary, genetic, and so on. They then used scientism to justify and propagate political ideas and economic models based on hardwired human nature and hierarchical differences between races, cultures, and intelligence. The fringes of the 1990s have now become the mainstream of the 2020s.

  • I sincerely appreciate this. You have further proven that I don't know anything at all about other countries.

    And an additional thanks for the thorough explanation in the linked comment. As a layperson, I knew different options existed, but I didn't know what they were, or why.

  • I thought it was 10 gauge for a 30amp dryer outlet (NEMA 14-30).

    And surely they used properly grounded 4 wire.

    Unless it's a heat pump unit, in which case I don't know anything (some are 120?).

    Or it's in a civilized country with 240V, in which case I know nothing at all.

  • Mac and cheese with chopped hotdogs was a staple of my childhood. Used to drown it in ketchup to make people squirm.

  • I was also a weird kid mixing jam and cheese (even grape jelly and American cheese) on sandwiches to the abject horror of parents and kids alike.

    I've taken it to adulthood with cream cheese and Peruvian pepper jam (just a light spread) on a savory bagel.

    Nowadays, if you "pair" jam and cheese on a cracker instead of bread, you can avoid the weird looks entirely and even seem sophisticated.

  • "Catholics aren't Christians" was a common phrase evangelicals used throughout my childhood.

    Yeah...

  • Oof, barely over a quarter of a Scaramucci!

    • How to get people to store roadkill for your pet hawk in their own fridge.
  • Did Benioff fall off the Trump train already?

    Context: he's the salesforce billionaire who owns time magazine.

  • They call it the lone star state because everyone is the star of their own movie about rugged individualism, or so I've heard.

  • I can't even get mdns to work with systemd-resolved and a local VM.

    Best of luck though, definitely something I'll be watching!
