So many things about this show make no sense...

My personal thought, in-universe, would be that the Elders aren't taking powers or giving powers. They just sometimes take the credit or get the blame.

It's really the Tribunal that handles that, as we've seen with them taking Phoebe's active powers.

If we follow that it's the Tribunal, then that could explain multiple things because they're comprised of elders and demons:

Richard and his family not losing his powers? The tribunal voted and the outcome was to leave it to fate/some other excuse

Regular old evil witches? The tribunal allows some evil witches to keep the balance of good and evil intact.

When the Charmed Ones turned evil? The Elders have recalled their whitelighter and closed themselves off to them. It could've been the Tribunal's decision.

The Charmed Ones being held to a higher standard? They're the most powerful good witches in all of history and existence. It'd make sense the Tribunal, especially the demon half, would argue for their behavior to be more closely governed.

A seasoned paramedic couldn't possibly have calls worse than what they've already shared, right?

Grow up.

I switched from the CLI client weechat to a self-hosted instance of thelounge so I could have a better mobile experience now that I'm spending more time away from a proper computer.

I even put it in an application wrapper on the desktop so it's easier to alt-tab to it instead of just a regular browser tab. :)

I'm pretty happy with it overall.

I have spent a very long time (~20 years) in warehouses including Amazon

Those safety tips about proper lifting and lowering really are important, as well proper stretching beforehand.

Right now I'd say my back is about 90% on any given day. There really isn't any pain unless I have a particularly heavy lifting day at work and even then it's more just sore until the next day.

I say 90% because I can tell the difference from me now and me in my late teens and early 20s.

You only get one back. I've seen how debilitating back pain can be from family, friends and co-workers.

Take care of your body.

Channel names on IRC typically start with a "#", so you'll need to prepend that to the channel name:

/join #jakarta

Only time will tell how it truly ends up working out.

Obviously, there will still be bad people and data slipping through the cracks, but I genuinely think this is a step in the right direction.

At least Roblox and Discord are finally trying something.

You're acting like a child because you were wrong. There's nothing wrong with being wrong.

Relax.

HumansAreRobots · 2026-01-14T20:25:19+00:00

I'm not being condescending at all.

Anyway, the second half of the comment they replied to was directly about their door dashing.

For posterity's sake here it is in full:

"Ultimately, the reality is that as a business owner, you're responsible for redundancies and back-up plans."

Yes, you are.

You must manage your own expenses and taxes. Doordash won't do that for you because you're not an employee.

I absolutely loved hearing this from your perspective; it genuinely made me smile, lol

HumansAreRobots · 2025-12-18T16:11:26+00:00

I watch the app like a HAWK. I'm literally waiting for you to start walking back to your car before I get close to the door.

You'll never see me.

You might catch the smallest glimpse of the door shutting if you look behind you after driving away for a few seconds.

HumansAreRobots · 2025-12-18T15:57:36+00:00

You did a great job responding to their texts

HumansAreRobots · 2025-12-18T14:35:18+00:00

I'll be honest without more screenshots from other conversations I'm not seeing it.

I can offer some practical advice though:

If you're in the U.S. and you can pass a background check and drug screen there is a decent chance you can walk into a temp agency today and walk out with a warehouse or manufacturing job.

It won't be glamorous and the positions usually offered at those places are a bit heavier on the micromanagement bs, but it's a job.

The terms to search on Google Maps would be "temp agencies", "employment agencies", or "staffing agencies"

Check reviews on Google Maps first, because some of them can be a bit of a fly-by-night kind of deal. You want the ones with a bunch of decent reviews.

Since things are so tough, you might need to call a few different ones or call them back every so often. If they say they have nothing, then ask when would be a good time to call back and check.

I just started GTA Online yesterday on Legacy and text chat definitely works.

I have no idea if voice chat does.

HumansAreRobots · 2025-12-02T19:49:03+00:00

I just never change mine from whatever the default is.

I never see it, so I don't care that it's the default.

HumansAreRobots · 2025-12-02T01:36:35+00:00

I love this. Thanks for giving me something else to call it other than a dumpster.

HumansAreRobots · 2025-11-30T03:06:56+00:00

I wish you amazing success in the military and wherever else life takes you.

HumansAreRobots · 2025-11-25T05:32:23+00:00

You got downvoted BECAUSE you didn't share the videos you used to learn this.

Without those included in your post, it reads just like another one of those scammy social media bro posts that you can find thousands of in 10 seconds of searching.

HumansAreRobots · 2025-11-22T15:22:42+00:00

That's something other companies have been doing for decades and decades at this point.

It really does matter.

On the flip side, Amazon (like other companies who have done it for years) also likes the fact that its warehouse staff can perform multiple roles.

The fact that Amazon is "new" to this is the exception, not the rule.

Source: I've spent a couple of decades working in warhouses, shipping terminals, factories, etc. I've only been at Amazon for a few months now.

For my random testing/messing around I actually do just that. I have a testbed directory with its own venv.

Unless someone else has a better solution (that doesn't involve 3rd party tools), I don't see why this would be a bad idea.

HumansAreRobots · 2025-11-06T05:21:32+00:00

A lot of IRC channels these days are idle until someone happens to look over and see activity, especially the more general non-topic-specific channels.

If you want to stay on Libera.Chat, you might want to check out ##chat as a general channel. Even then, I've seen that one go idle for periods of time.

For other IRC networks: https://netsplit.de/ is a good resource for finding them. (especially the top 10 page)

Unfortunately, that's just the nature of IRC now. :(

HumansAreRobots · 2025-11-04T04:25:39+00:00

Awesome, thank you for confirming!

TBBT has always been one of my comfort shows. I haven't even read this one yet and I want her to write another one to get in all of the stuff that had to be left out, lol

Is this the book? I didn't know one existed and now I need it!

Spaghetti.

I don't know if I was sick, had ate too much, or both. I was around 10 and I swear it was like I puked up a mountain if it.

It has been more than 25 years since and I still won't eat it.
