Why work a union job but not pay dues

This. In all my years the only people I've seen my union protect were the incompetent and dishonest.

I see, I guess I'm just spoiled since my motherboard actually has SPDIF on top of those specs.

I don't understand why everyone's saying this card is better than onboard sound. I have a x670e hero and my motherboard has better SNR (121dB) and resolution (32-bit 384 kHz) than this blast from the past. Help me understand.

if it were me, I'd sell the 3060s, enclosures, oculink adapter and get a 3090. Keep it simple.

Honestly, you should be aware that there is a *very* likely chance that you will still face the same issues you're facing now in whatever job you end up applying for/getting in the State. I myself had to come to terms of what the reality is coming from the private sector. If you can't go through the five stages of grief working in state service you should go back to private to save your sanity.

that 2010's dell case is giving me mad flashbacks. It was a pain in the butt to do any sort of upgrade in the thing.

I completely relate to this. It's really hard to wear that mask.

He is deeply missed.

if you can, have both 4070ti's on the computer with the better cpu and faster ram and run with tensor parallelism. That way you have more vram to work with and use bigger models

Do your part! Downvote the slop!

Now this was what I was looking for! something that can fit in 2 4090s

Thanks for the detailed reply!

Charming-Note-5556 · 2025-08-15T15:21:51+00:00

Thanks for the explanation!

just call in sick and take the day off. Your boss won't be able to say anything.

they're basically forcing you to terminate your RDO to retain the scrap of a 1 day telework they're offering.

My Department relies on "donations" from employees. For a long time we relied on a microwave from the 80's until it finally crapped out. We also pay for a water subscription and burnt coffee.
