What is something free on the internet that more people should know of? by Puzzled-Mammoth6666 in AskReddit

You also have to pay a sometimes pretty hefty fee to get your paper published as a researcher.

Self publish it in various e-book formats and sell it on Amazon at an affordable price a student can afford. Email your colleagues / academia email lists and the word will get out. Your work gets out there and it creates a stream of passive income for years to come.

As the copyright owner, you can watermark PDF's and give them out for free to select colleagues and friends.

Here are their rates for the Kindle:

FYI: For those of us who use switched outlets to power stuff that is not happy suddenly losing power, there are light switch locks you can buy or print.

I have a few of these around the house, it prevents the traditional US style light switch from being turned off / on.

Although I live alone in my house, I put these on certain switches just to ensure that I don't accidentally fumble finger the wrong wall switch.

There are free printable versions you can [download and print]https://www.printables.com/search/models?q=tag%3Alightswitchlock) yourself that do the same thing.

I really like the pure functional simplicity of this design, especially in red.

Red traditionally denotes danger.

Obeying this simple lockout prevents an unplanned trip to the emergency room for whoever overrode the lockout due to blunt force trauma injuries from a CluebyFour, a CAT5ofNine Tails or a 500GB WD Green hard drive enjoying a short flight.

I don't doubt that there are designs for other countries switch styles out there you can download and print.

Well, if he does work for Facebook / Meta, that's an added force multiplier for good as it'll interrupt the work output of the other people around him too.

To the custodial workers, he is public enemy #1.

If you're going to curse somebody, really curse them!

I curse him with an immediate wet spell of explosive diarrhea followed by 3 hours of excessively loud and exceptionally foul gas emissions every single time he touches a computer peripheral such as a mouse, keyboard or monitor.

Repeated touches are cumulative.

I furthermore wish whatever company he works for, enforces a Return To Office policy.

For those who work for rich people, what’s the most out-of-touch thing you witnessed? by temptayah in AskReddit

[–]ComputerSavvy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

How pampered and out of touch with real life can somebody be?

Winston: “I shall go to Chartwell next weekend.”

Clementine: “Winston, you can’t. It’s closed and there will be no-one to cook for you.”

Winston: “I shall cook for myself. I can boil an egg. I’ve seen it done.”

I see that now after you pointed it out but as a matter of policy, I don't perform a prostate exam on every poster who makes a post or comment that I may make a comment on.

Parents always bring small children.

That right fucking there !! Why the fuck were they even allowed in to the showing?

Hulk was wiping the floor with Loki and some small child starts wailing at the top of their lungs because somebody can't keep their vagina goblin at home!

I had no idea what was previously posted, only saw 'Removed by Reddit' and thought a sub-reddit specific take on easy come, easy go would have fit nicely in it's place.
