Copypasting my answer from the previous thread:

My current specific employment: A coworker of mine was laid off from my former employer, and joined the competition instead. Turns out that they needed what I do, and were willing to pay whatever it took, so they poached me with an offer I couldn’t refuse.

My job: Covid happened, and cuts were made among the field crew. I landed a role in the support structure instead, where I’ve been ever since.

My career: No fucking idea what happened. In 2008 I applied for a job and I had no idea what it was, and for which I was severely under qualified. I got it anyway. Turns out that being used to heavy machinery, computers/linux, and jury rigging was exactly what they were looking for, depsite wanting all sorts of degrees.

How much are we talking? Are there any documented suicides by nutmeg?

I grew up north of the toxic belt, and it’s my firm opinion that Italian food is overrated. Well, except Parmesan, I’ll give them that.

Lasagna is like a moussaka with too much tomato sauce and layers of pasta that should’ve been skipped.

Anyone who downvotes this is either Italian, or has a fetish for mashed tomatoes.

DO NOT call the police. They will confiscate the server as evidence, and lacking any other suspect, you will be their primary lead. Police aren’t about convictions or justice, they want to consider a case solved.

By law, you are not liable. But because of law enforcement incentives, it will absolutely become your problem.

Sidenote: I spent a couple of years working in Nigeria. Almost all bank notes there had some scribble on it, as it frequently doubled as note paper. When you don’t have Post-its, cash will do, I guess.

Superglue ends up hurting the skin in the long run as neither the glue nor the skin will withstand much fretting before peeling starts. It’s better to just keep at it.

Your fingertips will harden surprisingly fast, one of the few things to happen faster to beginner guitarists than trying to play Wonderwall. It only takes some practice everyday and after a week or two you’ll be fine.

Plus a gun doesn’t require draw strength

Positive contribution to a community is more important than following the rules strictly. If a thread technically is against the rules, but is relevant to the community and has positive interaction, it usually gets a pass from me.

Sounds like such a block would be highly dependant on a specific recorder + driver combo. In the name of science I’ll do some experimentation tonight.

UPDATE: Worked just fine for me.

Netflix running Bojack Horseman in Firefox under Linux Mint, stock NVIDIA 550 driver, and replay-magic as screen recorder.

There’s probably a better way, but you could go for a low-brow approach: use a screen recorder on your PC and let the video play. Then you trim the recording and encode it to your format of choice.

Are you asking how to torrent something, or how to rip it from the Amazon stream directly?

Maybe, but not necessarily in a good way. Unfounded, to the point of cocky, I think.

More than once have I had to say something along the lines of “Yeah, we know, you’re not the first to suggest this. There’s a reason why we don’t do that.”

…and, again, not exclusive to Americans. But definitely more common.

I wouldn’t say arrogant, but I’ve worked with a lot of Americans, and there’s something most of them have in common. I can’t quite put my finger on what, but it’s in the vicinity or arrogance. I simply don’t have the necessary English vocabulary to explain it properly.

In short, I’ve found that most of them likes to swing their dick around and pull rank, even if someone else clearly has a better approach/solution/suggestion. This is far from unique to americans, but it seems more prevalent compared to the other nationalities I’ve worked with.

It is now. It’s literally in the EULA.

Front and back was occupied by other hardware. The innards came with some design constraints.

This probably does not apply to the Cisco rack hardware you mentioned, but odd rack units does serve a purpose: I was part of a group designing some proprietary hardware for our company, and I suggested 1.5U height on puprose: That way whoever installed it would be forced to leave a gap over it, because that’s where the air intakes for the fans were.

Software compatibility for things such as Adobe products and other things that are built specifically for windows.

This may get you banned from Italy, but international fuckery with Lasagna is awesome: mix in some taco spices and serve with nacho chips.

Where I live we do not have tornado sirens, we have air raid sirens (named as such during ww2, and the name stuck). They’re used for various emergencies such as floods, avalanche, etc.

I think the name is just down to the original purpose, and its use case is a lot less limited. It wouldn’t surprise me if our air raid siren sounded identical to your tornado siren.
