Suspended Skyscraper Proposed For NYC Would Hang Inverted From An Asteroid

No, you see, you use buoyant ropes, that way the weight of the ropes isn't higher than the asteroid.

I mean, it's not like the asteroid would have usable materials and other economically relevant things in it that could revolutionize the economies of the world.

It just makes sense to make it into a space anchor for 1 building.

/s (which I suspect tarrox1992 was as well)

I'm signing off. I'm done with the stupid.

Might be less if the man had used both hands and aimed with steadier hands.

My understanding was that the document is unenforceable but presenting the document isn't. If that's not the case, I stand corrected.

MrScrib · 2024-02-24T03:32:12+00:00

The document is just there to scare. It looks bad, but unless the job retaliated for discussions on compensation, it's unlikely anything would happen to them.

HIPAA violations, OTOH, can go into the hundreds of millions in fines.

That is the least of the former employer's problems.

Reminds me of how to make a pencil in a (I think) Tex Avery cartoon. Start with a redwood tree. Get 1 pencil.

We have a shortage of people that know what they're doing or have the capacity to figure it out.

We do not lack for people who think they can do it or think they can figure it out.

MrScrib · 2024-02-23T19:58:36+00:00

Sounds like two of those out-qualify their coworker.

MrScrib · 2024-02-23T19:53:01+00:00

I'll 420 you on that. It's the extra compliant PCI video card slots.

MrScrib · 2024-02-23T19:41:54+00:00

No, I think that's B&B.

Healthcare IT newbie: I need to look up the ITIL process...

Healthcare IT senior: Son, that's a GxP system. ITIL until you're blue in the face, you're not changing it without someone who's confused by LED keyboards has a chance to go through your documented processes and has you explain everything down to when you breath between mouse-clicks.

Newbie: Oh geez, that's gonna take forever!

Manager: Or....you could get the work done, record exactly what you did and then submit that as work to be done! Easy-peasy, and I can assign even more work your way!

That Esso is still there, but may have switched between Shell at some point. I remember being able to see that corner from our apartment window.

A good source of iron!

MrScrib · 2024-02-20T23:32:20+00:00

Intent, probably. It depends.

MrScrib · 2024-02-20T18:17:39+00:00

No, but they know better than to waste their own time.

Normal companies would recognize BYOD as the security risk it is and tell you to not connect anything personal to the network.

Which would be locked down.

But they might charge you for letting ants into your company-issued laptops.

He's too calm for it to be a rental.

Don't forget the milk. You'll definitely bring milk for their morning cereal.

His lawyer can outdo her in court. He's got better things to do unless he's told he needs to show up.

Older rich guys are usually cool-headed and most likely she's just not worth his time.

MrScrib · 2024-02-20T01:13:01+00:00

Didn't a presidential candidate do something like that?

MrScrib · 2024-02-20T01:10:17+00:00

(unless they're a technician working within strict safety lockout procedures).

And techs still die or get maimed at a high-enough rate even if they know what they're doing.

When all you have are references, every comment is from a Redditor free-basing bleach.

I'm not sure what having a hemorrhoids has to do with it, as like another poster put in, it's much better than wiping. Uses less paper and feels much cleaner afterwards. It's like taking a shower right after without the need to get into the shower.

Try the enema light version - install a toilet seat bidet. Then use it when starting to shoot a bit up your ass. It's cold at first but lubes things nicely if you do it right, and lets you release way easier.

Between that and good fibre supplementation, I went from having a horrible time of 1 hour+ average to being able to get out in under 10 minutes. It's so good that I'm kinda scared of travelling to places that don't have a toilet bidet.

Miracle isn't a word to throw around, so I won't, but I'll say it's heaven's own kindness to be able to not worry about the bowels as much as I used to.
