I felt safe as long as Steven Colbert and Jon Stewart had jobs. They wouldn't come after me as long as larger targets exist.

I feel much less safe now.

"The people of this country are not well served by these actions," Orme-Zavaleta added. "They are left more vulnerable."

Just remember, after people die or being seriously ill and hospitals go bankrupt as a result of these cuts, putting things back together will:

• Traumas inflicted don't go away
• Dead people are not restored
• Cost far more than keeping it
• Taxes will have to go up for more than if things were left alone.

Yup! Every time we add a new technology, the old does not go away. We just have more (gestures wildly) everything.

When picking a career specialization, don't abandon all the old stuff. Some of it makes a lucrative career after others have moved on (HPC, COBOL, on-site servers).

Some of MAGA believed.

So labor unions must be more moral than the owning class?

How fucked up.

I have heard inflation is cool now (10% a year for the next 4 years).
I hope we can get "inflation causing things" like a $25 minimum wage.

This may be a distraction, so just remember: Trump wants us to forget about the Epstein files, which had just been on Pam Bondi’s desk.

Who has a link to the list of politicians convicted of sex crimes in the last ~50 years? (I am not finding it.)

What could the motivations of the owner be, if not to make money?
Please add to my list:

• prestige
• tax avoidance
• boost retirement savings (in the USA, business owners can stuff their retirement accounts with LOTS of cash.)
• Create and disguise a "sex pad"
• improve the community by providing jobs and/or needed services (start a coffee shop so that there is a coffee shop.)
• time filler

Of those, I think a very healthy 401K contribution from the employer to the employee would be motivating to those already paid well.

Many employees already use the business as a sex pad. (Conference rooms can be gross.)

Seems the pink paper has a backing on it to stiffen it. Left side seems to show the backing, which may be pink cardboard. Given the mounting location, I would expect it to be "floppy" like the "lined" paper without a stiffener.
All of my above to say, I think someone put a "lot" of effort into the pink sign.

I appreciate your comment.

I dislike administrative issues on votes being called out by the board after the vote takes place. When administrative issues are noted after the vote, it looks like the board is trying to subvert the membership.

Great to know. I don't know if 106% of CPU is good or bad, but it is not what I had anticipated. Thank you!

I enjoy that "reading the book" and "taking a practice exam" were not listed as activities done. :)

I am convinced the entire actual point of college is to test "ability to finish a project". A Bachelor's degree is a four year project. A Master's degree is an additional two year project. A Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) is an additional five to eight year project. (Do remember that a Master's is not needed for a PhD.)

This is not a judgement on the many reasons for stopping.

Might be chaff for AI training.
Just upvote the crazies and move on. Something something Sarah Connor.

While I have heard of people doing this a decade, I have never looked into it.

How was the install and setup process? How is the resource consumption of the server? At one point it seemed one had to supply their own quests. Are there open source quests available? Anything cool I didn’t ask about?

Oh, that will go well. Piss off people and make their vote not count. The people that know where you live and can see your front door...

NO! Not again! There was the perfect ending! Then the brought it back and shit all over it.
