At least it didn't crack the screen with the bad hinge. I think it happens when the screws get a little loose and the angles shift. I work k-12 edu and have seen hundreds of Chromebooks do this.

IMongoose ,

You're already working on it so you're good. We've just had kids ignore it too long which causes more issues. Just don't force it lol.

IMongoose ,

I feel like all food is moving to JC Penny sales tactics. In what world is a box of cereal $8 but you can get 4 of those same boxes for $9. Same with soda prices. Every other week they run these sales.

IMongoose ,

I think I just saw an article saying that dog mode is currently broken lol

IMongoose ,

It's not a meme, people genuinely get upset about this. There was a post on a lemmy about the Comptia A+ study guide that had the question "What is GNU" with the answer of "It has to do with Linux" and people were writing essays on why this was not correct.

Drones trespassing in my property

Idk if anyone had a similar problem before, but I live in EU by the countryside, at first there were only a few but now it happens more and more often to see drones passing over my house, I am sure they are civilian drones because law enforcement has no reason to use them since the area is quiet (and honestly I doubt they would...

IMongoose ,

It's because it counts as an aircraft. Getting licenced to use your drone for anything more than "wooo, flyin mah drone" covers a lot of the same stuff a private pilot would know like reading the maps, airport landing procedure, and airspace. They treat it like an actual airplane. And you can't just start blasting at airplanes because they flew over your house. If it's doing more than just flying over it has to be addressed legally.

IMongoose ,

There is an edit, ebussy is referring to a gnome developer.

IMongoose ,

How many storytimes have you held?

IMongoose ,

I complained enough at my work about this that we shut off fast boot domain wide. I haven't had to have a "I know that you just turned your computer on but I need you to restart it. No, not shutdown and turn on, restart. Yes, they are different things." conversation in a couple years. Funnily enough I haven't seen anyone complain about the significantly longer start up times. I guess people just expect that from windows lol.

IMongoose ,

That's some oblivion on xbox shit right there. Hide a restart with a loading screen.

IMongoose ,

Bats are incredibly picky about their roosts. People have done this and attracted 0 bats lol.

IMongoose ,

I say dope and rad all the time.

IMongoose ,

Ya but how much XP are you grinding on it?

IMongoose ,

I used one of these stores like 5-6 years ago, maybe more. It was basically a pop up shop so it was pretty new. It took like 15-20 minutes for me to be charged. I'm positive now that it was some poor Indian watching me because it took so long.

Born too late to invade the middle east, born too early to invade the middle east, born just in time to invade the middle east.

IMongoose ,

I think it pulled a uno reverso on you. It provided the prompt and is patiently waiting for you to generate the meme.

IMongoose ,

I'm just wondering why she's answering the door in full costume.

IMongoose ,

I didn't see anyone mention this, but while this headset depicts the outside world when you are wearing it, you are viewing a camera feed of that world. True AR would be like google glass where it is a piece of glass with data projected onto it. Apples thing recreates the world around you and then adds in the applications, you are viewing the world through a filter.

It could also just be marketing too because it seems like they are trying really hard to not make this look like some nerd shit.

IMongoose ,

For real. They're going to get a $5-$6 pizza delivered to them for $15-$20? Are they nuts? Go get real food.

As with many animal-related jobs, the low pay probably manages to automatically filter down applicants to only compassionate people that just want to help the little floofs. It's a step above volunteer (of which many are present anyway).

Ya, the posting is like this because they will still get tons of extremely qualified applicants. There are tons of IT, office, construction, whatever jobs, but there are not many "Work with or around wolves" jobs. They will probably get people with Masters degrees applying for this, maybe Ph.D. I applied for an animal control position and that was the case there.

IMongoose ,

There definitely are legitimate use cases for those gigantic trucks, but 90% of people who have those trucks don't use them for those use cases.

IMongoose ,

USA is a multi-party democracy, and as such laws and programs need to be approved by representatives with opposing views. Currently, republican governors are refusing to accept free federal money to feed children. There is absolutely no way they care about giving the homeless homes. I absolutely agree with you that this is an "orphan crushing machine" issue but unless the GOP implodes we're not going to have such progressive policies.

IMongoose ,

I had this happen to me. Bought a 980ti warehouse deal, came in a 980ti box, plugged it in and it was a 980. Amazon took it back without issue. I'm assuming that I received a fraudulent return, and I'd assume the same thing with this 4090. Especially because this was in a return pallet deal, meaning, you know, it was returned to Amazon. We have no idea what Amazon actually sold in the first place.

IMongoose ,

Have you looked into side zip boots?

IMongoose ,

No, I just want some for casual wear. I have long lace steel toe boots for when I'm going to be hunting a long time and muck style boots for shorter wear times.

IMongoose ,

Ya, I'm near Chicago. Negative teens and a foot of snow one week to 40s and raining the next is more wtf than this.

IMongoose ,

You can likely find a better chair on garbage day.

IMongoose ,

My town just voted to give some land back to native American descendants by buying it from the current owners.
