Good communication can save your business lots of money.

Strictly for example, I'm making over $100 to do basically nothing because an AP is down. Why is it down? The room it's in is being painted.

Who knows how many hundreds were paid to the long chain of subcontractors that eventually led to me. But all of it was an avoidable expense. All that would have been needed was for someone to communicate "Hey, heads up, the painters are unplugging this so they can paint"

all my homies hate cisco

Ubisoft should get more comfortable with piracy imo

I'm convinced that "elevator certificate is on file" means the elevator wasn't inspected and/or didn't pass.

Because who the hell is gonna check?

I can't believe Sneaker Pimps made a whole album about Twitter getting renamed

The Associated Press just served me an ad for fake anti-virus. The entire page was taken over, and forwarded to the malicious site, within seconds of opening the news article, every time.

An ad blocker isn't just something to hide some annoying eyesores, it's a vital layer of security.

If you have friends or family who might fall for fake AV or "windows technical the department" scams, they *need* an ad blocker. No site they visit can be considered "safe" unless it simply doesn't have ads.

I really am perfectly happy editing my static site in nano.

So, sell me on the idea of migrating it to Jekyll or a similar framework.

Soooooo are cops just exempt from FAA line-of-sight requirements?

@coin one-off contract work on one of those marketplace platforms. no insurance, 1099. But I'm beginning to learn about the magical wonderous force called "write-offs"

I'd definitely still like a real, full-time, W2 position, tho. Especially given that these gigs are great for extra cash, but there's absolutely no way I can make rent on them.

>this work order requires a laptop with windows, admin rights, and teamviewer so we can remote into it

soooooo you're getting a partition just for you because lmao I don't trust you and I don't trust your network and I've literally watched kids use teamviewer to pivot around a network

I've discovered that one of the people following me is Really Actually Blind and therefore needs alt text, so I'm making it a point to add it though.

However, I've found that a lot of times, it's necessary to "explain the joke" in order to properly write alt text. And explaining a joke is like dissecting a frog; you understand it better, but you've killed it in the process.

@coin
Let's not beat around the bush, I fucked up huge in February. There's just no doubt there. That's not the frustrating part

The frustrating part are the people trying their hardest to interfere with me trying to turn my life around. That's the confusing bit. Let's let it drop.

@JessTheUnstill
Oh MAN have I found that to not be the case.

The last time I asked for help, is being circulated as "receipts" that I'm a bad person. It wa literally me asking for help. One sentence wherein I said I was afraid of something, is being trotted out.

I'm not allowed to ask for help. I'm allowed to bottle it up. Which I'm adapting to. But it's very saddening to see people say "you're allowed to ask for help" when you so very clearly aren't.

Mental health is health... Except for me.

@r00tAdmin
If that's how you understood the text, you need help with your reading comprehension. When I said "I am afraid", I did, in fact, mean that I was fearful.

Thanks for proving my point through... Because it was clumsily worded, my pleas for help were, and continue to be, weaponized against me.

Anybody reading this, take note: Do not, for any reason, ask for help.

You didn't lose anything. The industry lost you.

I require consistency in laws and rules.

This causes cognitive dissonance and ultimately discomfort in those who need double standards to excuse bad behavior.

And I'd rather be consistent than popular.
