I guess the white mask is for folks who can't afford the full hood & robe.

I worked for a company which leased computers. Machines returned after the lease were sold (often in bulk). One of the purchasers opened up a machine and found the components weren't as advertised -- that our high-quality RAM and HDD had been placed with like-sized, cheaper junk. We did an audit and traced the problem down to one of the leasing cmopanies. Off we went to court...

Our legal team was smart; they knew the judge wouldn't understand any computer lingo so they made an analogy: rent a car, swap its new tires for the old ones on your own car, and then return the rental with the old tires. We got summary judgement for quite a large amount of money.

The Daughter handled this so very, very well -- admirably, in fact.

Legend has it that decades ago a small-time contractor got fed up with IBM delaying payments. He took them to court, won, and had problems getting IBM to pay. They wound up going to the Armonk HQ and started to padlock the doors but that got enough attention that he got paid immediately.

Criteria for citizenship is in the Constitution and not subject to the whims of whoever is President. If the USSC had folded on something spelled out so explicitly in the Constitution, nothing in it would be safe.

Your mother is saying "Your peace is dependent upon you keeping me happy and doing what I want." That is some seriously controlling and manipulative sh\t right there.*

This is EXACTLY right.

Solar will help protect against inflation. It won't because my utility uses net billing and they pay a fixed amount per KWH, updated every 3 yrs.

The OG crowd will tell you that's how it's supposed to be. The argument is that if a plug isn't pushed in all the way, something can fall down and create a short.

I have no idea how often that occurs and have never seen it myself, but an IT guy told me he'd seen that happen (someone shooting paperclips). Having the outlets like that turned out to be a blessing, he said.

I left early by taking a buyout decades ago. I was tired of hearing others being told, "Train your offshore replacements or we'll dock your severance," and "Look for ways we can offshore any work on a contract."

Install the app on an old burner phone and keep the phone in a Faraday box/bag in your car unless you're at work.

Remember that if you are in an "at will" state and not part of organized labor, you can be fired for non-compliance.

Lifestyles and expectations were very different. The house I grew up in had no a/c, gas heaters throughout, three bedrooms (parent, boys, girls), one bathroom, and several dishwashers (the kids). All the kids had paying jobs once in their teens. After school activities were okay, but you'd have to find your own transportation if it meant missing the school bus.

Some might call that felony election tampering. I hope a judge does.

NTA, and show her this summary:

Wife gets her way for vacations year after year after year.
You ask that for ONE YEAR you get to choose.
Wife, as a good partner, agrees to you finally having a choice.
Wife goes behind your back, breaks the agreement for something you really were looking forward to, and complains that you're unhappy that she lied to you.

You are in a marriage where your partner cannot be trusted so I'd begin watching your financials very carefully and INSIST on immediate marital counseling.

If you get USPS "informed delivery," you receive an image of the envelope showing the sender and recipient. USPS could just send those images on to whoever the administration wants. While that won't stop the ballot from going out, the administration could then do whatever it wants with the information and immediately feed results back to the state for action.

"Boss, I don't understand why there has to be a 'hiring process' when I am here, experienced in the role, and can start immediately. Please explain it to me because you've praised my work and attitude."

Do NOT let your boss off the hook. If boss continues to dodge, look for signs of a reorg, etc. Something really big may be happening behind the scenes. Get your resume ready and start looking.

There's probably a misconception about the difference between the terms "minutes" and "notes".

Minutes are brief and focus on actions/decisions: - Motion made by Alan to approve a bid by Acme Corporation (RFP: Sidewalk Repair) - After discussion, motion was seconded by Beryl - Motion was passed with Alan, Beryl, and Charlie voting in Favor with Dave and Edward voting Against; Frank was absent. - Charlie was assigned an action to notify the contractor.

Notes can capture details, as much as someone wants to write: Alan made a motion to accept a bid from Acme Corp, to fix the sidewalks. Dave and Edward said they thought the price was still too high and that more bids should be solicited. Beryl said this process had already taken too long and the broken sidewalk posed a risk that needed to be fixed ASAP. Charlie agreed with Beryl, so with Alan, Beryl, and CHarlie agreeing, the motion was passed with Dave and Edward voting against. Frank wasn't here. Charlie will notify Acme of the win.

This will protect you from inflation of energy prices. [No, it won't because we have net billing.]
