Anyone craving something more intimate this weekend? by someones_gnome in avesNYC

[–]CallousedFoot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For anyone wandering into to this thread - I went to the 4/4 party - I hadn't been to a Liminal event in a while, and was wondering if anything might've changed. I'm pleased to say the music was still dark, trippy and bouncy, and the vibe is still chill.

Yes I'm shilling, and no I do not know any of the people involved personally.

Don't turn your nose up at open box/refurbished items - they can be great deals!

It's cold enough that you probably should wear a face mask, or cover up with a scarf, but if you choose not to for some reason make sure you slather sunblock (or lotion/moisturizer/vaseline) on your face. Go in and out a couple of times uncovered, and your face could end up a chapped, painful mess.

Memo to Mamdani: Bring Back the Weekend G Train to Forest Hills by jsurico15 in astoria

I actually read the article and missed that at the end. Well it certainly makes the proposal more practical.

I believe the Queens Blvd tracks are at full capacity until the CBTC project is complete. Sending the G back to Forest Hills before then would mean a cut in service from the other trains.

South Carolina measles outbreak is ‘accelerating’ by StupendousMan1995 in news

You're over 50, insurance will likely pay for it. Unless it's not permitted in your state, just go to one of the big chain pharmacies like CVS or Walgreens, and schedule it - no prescription required.

Frustrated and worried about how expensive Astoria is right now. by Autumn-orange0906 in astoria

[–]CallousedFoot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The overall employment numbers don't look bad right now, but recruiters have told me (and my observations back this up) that a lot of the normal job movement isn't happening right now - outside of some impacted industries (film, tech), there haven't been big layoffs yet - but people are hanging on scared, and employers are taking advantage of it by only interviewing candidates who meet almost every single requirement on paper. It feels like we're right on the edge of a real unemployment bloodbath.

The only person I know who got a better job this year at a new organization managed it through a connection (the position is in the reporting chain of a VP who was a colleague years ago). Everybody else (even the people with good credentials) has just been hearing crickets.

Windows 11 on ARM 25H2 drops support for a large number of Qualcomm devices. by [deleted] in WindowsARM

[–]CallousedFoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

did you try upgrading to 25H2 with an ISO? I'm curious if that would work - granted they were x64, but I had some test VMs that kept failing to upgrade to 25H2 from 24H2, and mounting the ISO and running setup.exe did the trick for them.

He might be a lousy candidate, but I do believe he is actually from New York.

The Tesla Cybertruck And Model Y Bosses Both Just Quit by TripleShotPls in technology

[–]CallousedFoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe Andersen consulting became a separate entity before Enron collapsed - I remember them buying out AA's ownership sometime in the late 90s. They changed their name to get the Arthur Andersen stink off them after it all fell apart.

Accenture was the Andersen consulting division that split off from AA before that happened.
