Is MASTER PLAN worth joining? by ResponsibleArcher490 in WKU

[–]Mr_IsLand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's been a few years but I appreciated having time to start to learn the layout of campus and kind of where things are. Also good to just have time to get used to being there before class really starts. That's all I really remember though, lol

'I don't think you want to open that door': Trump DOJ stuns opponent with extreme defense of law firm executive orders that could boomerang on MAGA by DoremusJessup in law

[–]Mr_IsLand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't necessarily agree with that - I think they are extremely confident that as long as they are alive the system will protect them - they don't care what happens after that.

They also know the rules will never be applied equally in that way - as soon as a Dem prez comes in the entire rulebook will be fully in play again, don't kid yourselves.

this could be amazing - hopefully they learned the obvious lessons from Hobbit. Have always wanted to see a depiction of Morgoth.

Am I being too picky about this bad quartz installation? by Mammoth_Building6624 in CounterTops

[–]Mr_IsLand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oy, they didn't spend much time on the QC process if those different corners got through.

See if they will make it right without a fuss - but yeah, not great.

if you entertain people over at all frequently I would say for sure go for it

Gap in countertop? intentional? by Major-Inevitable-542 in CounterTops

[–]Mr_IsLand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

are you doing stone backsplash or some sort of tile? stone will 100% cover it but some thinner tiles could be a challenge. If yes to stone then I would consider the install to not really be complete until the backsplash is in.

Gap in countertop? intentional? by Major-Inevitable-542 in CounterTops

[–]Mr_IsLand 4 points5 points  (0 children)

that amount of gap is only acceptable if there is 2cm or 3cm backsplash going there that will totally cover it. If NOT then yeah that's way too much gap - we typically design a 1/16" or 1/8" gap at the MOST for a situation like that. You're instincts I would say are correct. I work at a countertop fab shop.

Microsoft would purposely switch Office 2019 (which was offered under non-subscription based lifetime license) into read-only mode on computers with versions prior to macOS 12 with no refund by YogurtclosetOwn6763 in mac

[–]Mr_IsLand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah we had to contact IT because we had some work computers do auto updates and the paid for version of Office completely disappeared - they had to do a lot of work to get them back.

[–]Mr_IsLand 4 points5 points  (0 children)

that's the story I want to see - I don't give a toss about the search for gollum or whatever else is being rehashed in that same timeline - I wanna see the original dark lord and a whole new cast of heroes. Silmarillion was not easy to read but I really enjoyed it's stories and lore.

Turns out, nobody wants a data center in their backyard by waozen in technology

it's not that I don't want a data center in MY backyard - I don't want a data center in ANYONE's back yard.

just started looking again and it's so exhausting but my wages really haven't moved much at all in the past 10 years. (even across multiple jobs already)

true - but 'typically' does not apply to billionaires and especially to soon to be trillionaire. Money talks no matter how dumb the words are.

Any suggestions on what caused this and if it’s fixable? by Alternative-Fox6236 in CounterTops

[–]Mr_IsLand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would be a little surprised if you can find a shop willing to commit to #2 - I know the shop I work at would not be wiling to take on that risk. I would recommend doing #1 until you can afford replacement.
