“Winning requires hard work. I believe that most of us, being ambitious individuals, find fulfillment in the joy of seeing our efforts materialize into tangible results,”

Bitch, I find fulfilment in paying my fucking bills. I could give 2 shits less about the “tangible results” of my work that makes my company money, I only care that my boss is happy with my work and I get paid. Working harder to get another 10% out the door gets me 0% more money, so why do I care about making you more money with no benefit to me?

All that is ln’t to say I don’t care about the quality of my work, I’m just not going to break my back to make my boss another dollar while I get jack shit out of my extra effort. I get paid for 40hrs, I work 40hrs, and I’m surely not going above and beyond to earn a pizza party or something…

Wow, I like the one guy farther down who claims Likud is awful but it’s Hamas propaganda that the IDF kills kids… like the massive dead civilian and kid numbers are just all propaganda to make a genocidal ethnistate look bad.

Sure, though it isn’t super exciting. The assistant store manager, Lucio (fuck you Lucio, you fucking piece of shit) was an illegal immigrant who managed to fake his way through the verification steps, and INS showed up one day and vanned him while I was away going to college.

I wasn’t sad to see that fucker go, because he had a number of Mexican kids that he let do whatever they wanted, including Edgar who sexually harassed multiple girls out of the store and Lucio wouldn’t do shit because “why would I fire him when we’re already losing one employee”. Never mind that wed already lost 4 girls at that point and one of them was pregnant at the time. I’m honestly surprised he and I never came to blows because I didn’t hide that I fucking hate him.

My manager didn’t honor the employee discount after I was gone, either.

They never do. I had a manager try that shit on me when I was working food service, and I turned it around on him and made him get one of his toadies to clean it up after talking a bunch about “not being trained for biohazard cleanup” and “OSHA regs” which got him to back down, and I told all my coworkers the same so they’d tell him to fuck off too.

Still wish I could have been there when the feds showed up and escorted him out of the building.

Well of course, it’s their god given right to do with their property children as they see fit.

So just swap new drives in one at a time, after backing your data up just in case. I upgraded mine to 4x10 drives 3-4 years ago, and its painless as long as you wait for the resilvering process to complete.

Having gone through your journey about a year ago (complete with coming from Feit lights and plugs), I don’t think you’re going to find an integration that lets you control them (but if you do, please let me know!)

I use a lot of aquaria sensors (water/temp/presence), sengeled bulbs and outlets, and I think third reality is who makes my motion detectors. I’ve got my office, living room, kitchen/dining room and basement all hooked up with motion or presence activated lights, most of which have scenes that control what light is what color when. Definitely worth investing in equipment that hooks into HA natively, you can hack a lot of stuff together, but it’s so much nicer when things just work.

I ended up going with a zigbee coordinator from Tubes ZB, as it was one of the better recommended ones, but you can go with a cheaper option if it fits your use case. I needed a network coordinator since my HA is virtual and wanted flexibility in where my stuff lives.

I too have dreams of lots of pictures

2016 was my year, and that election pretty much slapped me in the face for doing so.

Until the fascist part stops being fascists, I feel morally obligated to vote for the same party for the continued benefit (and rights) of the LGBT+ members of my family.

How do those compare to fiberglass blankets? I do firecupping and appreciate having the protection of the blanket, but don’t want to worry about shards making my partners itchy. But I’ll deal with the itch if it means no fire worries…

I’ve got both a fire extinguisher and a fire blanket, and I’ve only ever needed the blanket so far. $26 for a 5’ square fiberglass blanket that did the trick immediately the first time it was needed.

If it’s a real extinguisher, can’t you just have it recharged and reuse it?

Yes, as stated below that includes property taxes and insurance, things that this person likely isn’t thinking about and isn’t figuring into their monthly payment. I hope I’m wrong, but I’ve watched friends crash and burn doing something similar.

Sure, if you ignore all kinds of other factors like additional closing costs added to your mortgage, as well as stuff like insurance and property taxes and the interest on the loan itself. But yeah, simple arithmetic…

I wish it was as easy as just a percentage of the mortgage every month

If you’re looking at 300k @ 8%, youre not going to be paying anything similar to your current rent. I got a place for 190k @ 6%, and I’m paying about 200/mo less for my mortgage than you do for rent. At that rate, I’d be surprised if you got out under 2500/mo.

Man, the 20s are a weird time. A century ago, it would have been the Germans asking the Jews if they were Jewish at gunpoint, not the other way around. It’s almost funny how “never again” is now just “again” now that Israel is taking charge…

Absolutely. Punishing the civilians they’re hiding amongst us a literal war crime (collective punishment), and I refuse to support a state that’s trying to ethnicly cleanse a neighboring state so they can steal land.

Also, a commander being there is a fucking weak excuse to bomb a fucking refugee camp. No matter what you think of the war, it should be unconscionable to target a camp of people who’s lives you’ve already destroyed, but considering the end goal of Israel, I’m not surprised they’d stoop that low.

An Israeli strike targeting a Hamas commander in the densely populated Jabalya refugee camp in northern Gaza has left catastrophic damage and killed a large number of people, according to eyewitnesses and medics in the enclave.

Israel is a terrorist state, and they’re so blood thirsty for Hamas commanders that they’re bombing fucking refuge camps.

And they wonder what drives support for Hamas? Jk, no they don’t. Israel knowsthey support Hamas because of Israel’s actions, and Israel leans into it to give them excuses to marginalize and remove Palestinians from their land one way or another.

I don’t support Hamas, but supporting Israel is unconcionable, and has been for years. But with so many things these days, the authorizations are going full mask off…
