Idk. Hot and Ready’s bring back the fond memories of self loathing and trauma bonding that were grad school
A good reason to walk around with a label maker
What features are missing? (Maybe ignorance is bliss)
Somewhat agree. The good ones you’d never know exist until you need help. They are a god send. Fuck the rest of them
See a therapist. It’s great you feel comfortable reaching out to the community, but our time is fleeting and memories short. Going to speak to someone who is professionally trained to help people in these kinds of circumstances on a regular basis helps a lot.
I have never eaten a peanut butter and jelly sandwich
Agreed. I’m not entirely (barely) versed in the law, but at the very least, if it’s a one party consent state, his mom would “have to set it up”.
What’s less clear to me is why the drastic action? Start by leaving a 20 on the dresser and see if it stays there.
Assuming you live in the United States, you need to be aware of the laws in the state you live in. Many states are one party consent when it comes to recording. Which means if you and I are having a conversation, you can record it without telling me. One party has consented.
If on the other hand, you install a camera without your mom’s knowledge, then you are not one of the two parties. This “evidence” could be thrown out of court as it is “illegally aquired”.
Not to say you shouldn’t do it. Protect your mom’s property. I would just suggest looking into the local laws about it. I am also not a lawyer so you should look into your local laws or consult a lawyer.
The Young Tur… wait what was the question?
Depends on the kind of concentration. If I’m programming or doing some kind of math, I want fury. I’m reaching for Slayer or Megadeth or the Doom sound track. Nothing like Angel of Death to plow through something.
If it’s more contemplative, power ballads. Something I can sing without focusing on it. I Want to Know What Love Is. Keeps pace, but it’s more emotional. Keeps me in that thoughtful place.
Cooking, woodworking, cleaning. Something active but not on the whole fast. Heavy metal, southern rock, or blues. Kiss, CCR, Lynyrd Skynyrd, BB King. Something even tempo that can pick up and come back down. Freebird followed by Fortunate Son is a good example.
Unfortunately, sometimes (often) there is no man page for what you are looking for. So if you get a page not found, that’s usually the case. You can usually find associated pages all the way at the bottom. That helps when what you are looking for isn’t a command, but a reference. I don’t remember exactly where it is, but man pages are stored in a directory. Probably /etc or /usr. You can always dump that list into fzf or use grep to search to see if there is a page for what you are looking for. It’s not a perfect system by any means, but it’s a good one to have in your toolbelt.
I can appreciate that. Appologies if you know this already, but just don’t like them. Here are some tips.
It helps a lot to get title/subtitle/flag highlighting. By default man pages are hard to use simply because of how dense they are. It’s much easier to skim when you can separate the parts you are looking for up front from the text.
Don’t forget ‘/’, ‘n’, and ‘N’. First way to use man pages more effectively is to search them easily. And you can search via regex. Often I’m looking for more info on a particular flag. So I’ll press ‘/’ followed by ‘^ *-g’. For a g flag.
Take notes on the side. It saves you time later. Your future self will thank you. And you learn a lot by skimming them.
Man pages can be intimidating/confusing, but, imho, it’s worth training that skill. Even if you are slower up front, it’s totally worth it.
Yea that’s a good point. I guess I’m living in fairy tale land considering meeting mandatory minimum and deductible 🤣 A boy can dream
tldr is the first of 4 ways I rtfm. Then -h, man, and then the arch wiki
Shop around if you don’t like your GP. Tell them your situation and ask them for a referal to every specialist under the sun. Get tested and innoculated for absolutely everything they suggest.
Some people also use downvotes as way to say they dislike something. Unlikely, but some people might be down voting to indicate they don’t like the insurance industry.
I have two. One moving some ‘friends’. One moving myself.
The first was when I was in graduate school. About five of us agreed to move a couple and their kid across town. One was another graduate student. His wife was the front office admin. We figured it was nbd. One of us had a truck and they got uhaul. Little did we know ‘moving’ meant ‘packing’. What should have been an afternoon turned into three days. Largely because of how particular she was about how things were packed. We would have said no, but she was in charge of important documents like travel reimbursements so we didn’t want to risk it.
The second was moving to a new job. The truck was late, the place was filthy, and I had to sleep on the wooden floors. Those floors were so disgusting I decided to clean them. I vacuumed. I mopped. Nothing would get them clean, so I got a power washer. I learned that day that power washers can set off smoke detectors. The entire building was evacuated. Afterwards, I had to meet with the dean about it. She chewed me out and asked why I hadn’t called facilities to have it clean. I told her if it wasn’t cleaned before I moved in why should I expect it to be cleaned now. I have a feeling my contract not being renewed had something to do with that.
It’s the tipping culture. If you have to split the bill, the presumption is everyone will tip poorly under the assumption that someone else will tip well. Having worked several food service gigs, I can say that is accurate.
