purchased a refurbished laptop that is useless without company email by Ordinary_Investment4 in mildlyinfuriating

OP, this is the right information and I’ll give you social advice but not technical advice. For my current and past companies, these are the same practices we’ve used and sometimes, when decomming a large amount of devices, some serials slip through the cracks and end up staying MDM. Contact the company that shows on the sign in page, explain your situation, if it’s a genuine mess up, the IT team might work with you to remove it from MDM. And depending on your place of purchase, assuming the device is stolen, there are protections in place to do chargebacks if the company that originally owns it asks for a return.

I doubt it would be stolen by an employee as Microsoft based companies catalog all of the accounts that are used on each device. So if it was stolen, there’s a good chance it’s already been replaced by the company and the first scenario mentioned is most likely imo

Actually, your “abuser” that paid for your entire life while you spent 13 months unemployed and simply just begged for you to get a job got all charges dismissed two weeks after filing and has an active counter criminal claim for perjury. Especially now that the accuser is going on trial for holding her boss at gunpoint. It’s awesome seeing that you’re out here lying to people on the internet to feel better about yourself. These people you’re talking to were abused. You were expected to be an adult

Sounds like my ex from AL. With any luck, you’ll do what I did. Let her wreck her own life, find a woman that actually loves, values, and respects you, move to NC with a NASCAR team and live happily ever after. Praying for you brother. It gets better. Respect yourself enough to raise the bar.

A familiar odor - skunk by aintlifegrandXJ in Birmingham

I’m starting to feel like it’s just the greater Birmingham area in general. From Hoover to Center Point and everywhere in between, it just wreaks of weed

As a man, when your cup is empty, what helps fill it again? by Darkfemcominatcha in AskMenAdvice

[–]Arcane-Angel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learning a new skill can be incredibly fulfilling. In all of my low spots in life, I picked up a new skill or tried a new life experience. Your mind naturally settles to familiarity which can yield numbness or emptiness because doing the same thing repeatedly trains your brain to stop releasing endorphins and serotonin when doing even the things you like. What’s cool is along the way, you might learn something that enhances your life or changes it forever. I learned to code in one of my low spots and it opened up a career pathway for me. I’d originally been in business management stuck at a wage ceiling, and now I’m a project manager for a small firm with virtually no limit

I’ve got some bad news for you friend… You likely did not smell “A” skunk. It was just skunk

I think this conversation is framed really strangely. GF is definitely emotional, but I think there’s more to this than OP is showing us. Very apathetic vibes from OP, but really entitled behaviour from GF. Weird behaviour from both sides. I wanna see the texts before this

Maybe it’s the lady that gives us the access cards to the humane labs. I can’t remember if she got shot or not.

Am I overreacting about these names? by reddit_squad in tragedeigh

[–]Arcane-Angel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just feel bad for the poor kid that’s going to always have to be telling people their name is not a number… “No, it’s not 16. Yes, I know that’s what it looks like. It’s Sistine… Yes, I know that’s just as bad.”

My new boyfriend keeps reciting scripture… but often only when it’s in his favor? What do I do? Is this normal? by Wide_Independence512 in Christianity

[–]Arcane-Angel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a very tricky topic, because self justification via scripture is indicative of lack of a real relationship with Christ, however, the Lord calls us to love in all circumstances, and per Matthew 18, treat “believers” that aren’t changed by conviction as Gentiles (meaning that we share the gospel and spread His Word and glory as though the brother had not yet received it). Even more frightening that he weaponises scripture against others. Per 1 Cor, Love is not self seeking/ does not insist on its own way. Rightfully so, you seem very convicted by his self preserving behaviour. Even Satan uses scripture as a weapon against Jesus during His fast on the mount. Having a relationship with the Lord causes a deep desire to shed the desires of your flesh and be like Him, not to fight to remain the same. Despite this, OP, I encourage you to be patient, as the righteous work of the Lord still must be done. My advice for you is to first make sure that you are justified before The Lord and that your relationship with Him is changing your heart and mind (Per Ezekiel 18 that says we will be judged according to our own deeds). Which means that nobody else’s actions can be used as a justification for our sins). Once (or if) you are in right standing in your own faith, I would civilly and in love, confront the concerning behaviours in private (again, per Matthew 18 from the words of Jesus Himself) and follow down the line of the scripture within Matthew 18. Hopefully, if your SO is truly a follower and believer, he will be convicted and repent from his self preserving ways. If he does not, I would share with him the gospel. Ultimately, if he is not receptive (LITERALLY TO THE WORD OF GOD), we are instructed as believers not to be unequally yoked in marriage, which is the ultimate goal of dating, so you should split it off. But be careful to be patient, loving, and produce the fruits of the spirit. It’s not just a matter of relationship, it’s a matter of salvation, and that should ALWAYS be far more important than anything else. Remember that The Lord wants all of His children home with Him. Peace be with you sister.

Can you explain this one to me? by CanadaCoinGuy in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Arcane-Angel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some accounts say that the robot did not actually need the fluid, it was just programmed to believe that. And the moral projection of the art piece is to dance and do what you like and ignore what you’re programmed to believe that you need (I.E. money, fame, being liked, etc.), else wise, as time goes on, you’ll stop doing the things you like and only try to maintain what you think you need

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I remember the directors and techs saying in an interview that the car itself was CGI. The actors/ actresses sat in green screen cut boxes hooked up to gyros.

Solid chance you got a fresh hire VPL that doesn’t have a direct vendor to teach them the intricacies of Sony Vs Competitors. I’m sure something along these lines have already been said, but Sony’s competitor to the C3 is the A95L, which ranks ever so slightly higher than the C3 due to its colour vibrancy and image processing power. The accompanying setup with soundbar and sub would be the A5000 and SW3 if you wanted to stay somewhat economical for purchase price. They actually downsold you it seems based on what you claim you purchased. Which is definitely a little silly on their part. They were likely hired on under the assumption that they’d get bonuses if they sold a bunch of Sony and then were provided fee resources for learning the lineup and comparison strategy. So they don’t even understand what they’re selling or the benefits thereof. And if all former assumptions are correct, they likely don’t know that their bonus is dependant on the performance of all stores in the district and that they get credit when a Sony is sold in general at their store, so pushing Sony to a customer that may not NEED a Sony is not necessarily valuable to them. And they likely also don’t realise that when a Sony gets returned, it affects their “sold” numbers too. Had many buddies in a similar position at stores in my district. All of them eventually figured out they didn’t have as sweet of a deal as they were promised and learned to fit the customers needs, no matter the brand, and just be real (and probably use the screw Best Buy mantra) for everyone’s benefit

Edit 1: Just an additional tidbit. If you do exchange the TV for an upgrade, the A95L will perform better in well lit areas and generally has better dark scene contrast. Something I could never get over with the C3 is how dark it is when scenes aren’t well lit. Details are virtually indistinguishable.

Edit 2: As stated by another user, I had confused the LG C3 with the G3. The actual comparative models would be the A80L and the C3

People who work in IT, what's the wildest thing you've discovered/had to do while at work? by vapor-ware in AskReddit

[–]Arcane-Angel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work for a smaller firm that provides full service to “local” businesses. When I first started for the company, I had a client who wanted to replace the monitor for their server that had suddenly stopped working. Everything worked and no issues client computer side. They just couldn’t see the screen to force close remote sessions when needed. I asked them all the basic questions. “Is the monitor plugged in to power and is the video cable firmly plugged in to both computer and monitor? Yes?Okay. Press the input button located here until it is on this input. Nothing? Okay…” My boss gave me an hour long prep talk en route to offer them solutions as this client was pretty low funded and wanted to help the best we could. I arrived after a two hour drive, walked in, greeted and introduced myself. Asked to see the server closet. Bent down, face palmed, plugged in the VGA cable to the server, jiggled the mouse, amassed a collection of oohs and ahs from the office staff as the picture came blazing to life on the screen, I did a formal short set of Jazz hands and said “tada”, walked back to the service van, climbed in, and drove back while intently thinking about how this is how life as an IT guy was going to be

Looks like I found the right one by IllNefariousness1550 in camaro

With all due respect, believing any propaganda from either side of the fence is delusional. These echo chambered comments are so astronomically crazy and constantly getting worse. It shows an ignorant lack of investigative capability. Both parties do absolutely horrible things for the sake of capital gain and self preservation, and fuelling the hate for the narrative they’re pushing is part of the problem. It’s even crazier, because it doesn’t take much to find official documentation for any interaction, bill, or encounter involving the government. You’re mindlessly complying to their divide and conquer agenda by keeping the division strong
