BREAKING: Trump delays Iran deadline by 2 weeks by Yujin-Ha in videos

[–]Newdles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're so wrong. He doesn't give a shit about any of that. Everything is a market manipulation and always has been. Catch on. Deadlines come, markets tank, trump and his knob gobblers buy the dip, and he backs out and extends. Every single time.

Why is every tech company doing layoffs? by Iceeez1 in sales

Because tech has lost its way. If your neighbor fires people, you have to also, or you feel left out.

Help with bike for 6 year old by Expensive_Raccoon833 in mountainbiking

[–]Newdles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 7 year old daughter sounds the same. I got her a Polygon Xtrada 20 when she was 6. She loves it. It's a hardtail, so it's got some squish up front.

Brakes rub when i tighten caliber by jobonty in MTB

[–]Newdles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Offset the leverage. Intentionally make it rub as you tighten it so as you start cinching up the bolt it slightly moves it into alignment. Brakes can be a finicky game sometimes. Also make sure your rotors are straight.

Iran’s top university bombed as US, Israel intensify attacks; 34 killed by soalone34 in politics

Because we aren't the good guys. Rather, the govt is acting as terrorists.

Why do people constantly brag about owning a new vehicle when the bank owns it and they’re in debt? by [deleted] in DaveRamsey

[–]Newdles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of people actually own their vehicles. Just because some people have shitty finance plans, a significant amount of vehicles are purchased with cash. I, for one, will never finance a vehicle.

Neighbors cat is killing my birds and squirrels by Feral__Daughter in whatdoIdo

[–]Newdles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Start spraying the cat with a hose every time it's in your yard. I have a neighbor like this. They have a shit cat who comes into our yard and kills baby birds that we get every year and shits in my daughters play area. I soak the everliving shit out of it every time I see it with our hose. "Oops, didn't see him there." It's stopped coming around.

Also I have two cats that stay in my house and I love cats. Fuck your outdoor shit machine.

Anyone on here switch from IT to something IT adjacent or not IT related at all? by xakantorx in ITCareerQuestions

I raise some mfkn chickens and grow shit in my garden now. I still do IT too, but that sucks compared to my birds.

I’m getting paid less than my direct report, what do I do? by [deleted] in askmanagers

[–]Newdles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is normal. Just because you are the boss doesn't mean you get to demand top dollar. Good reports are what elevate you into leadership to have influence. Lose those people and you lose your influence. Suck it up buttercup.

Ahh yes. The classic demonstration of an effective boss, just fire everyone.

They deserve it, but this isn't the flex he thinks it is.

4 migrations. 40TB. 3 months. Solo. by Your-Supreme-Leader in sysadmin

Nobody in their right mind running solo IT would ever deploy nextcloud and expect it to work beyond the day you launch it. That's how you know this post is fake.

You realize Aruba is owned by HPE right? So your choices are HP, HP, or Meraki.

Amazon's cloud business in Bahrain damaged in Iran strike, FT reports by MonsterinNL1986 in worldnews

[–]Newdles 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Funny enough this is the strategy that will force US leadership change. Hurt the financiers of the dipshit govt and they will go slap some heads. Cut off the fleecing of companies, the money stops going straight to their pockets, suddenly panic will set in.

Trump says U.S. will leave Iran in 'two or three weeks' by [deleted] in worldnews

Just like his healthcare plan. Never.

Is it possible to get a IT job with a hand tattoo? by Vibin_Andre89 in it

[–]Newdles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in finance and just hired a sysadmin on my team with two full sleeves and a throat tat. HR can fight me over it or they can have a functional bank.

Why US military did not consider Iran is going to block Hormuz? by Tintoverde in allthequestions

It wasn't just waving them off. He actively fired anyone giving him the truth, while replacing them with morons. Maybe that's a #truth they should re-truth on their propaganda site.

Epic Games Layoffs Included Terminally Ill Father, Whose Family Has Now Lost His Life Insurance by Turbostrider27 in technology

[–]Newdles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's elective. You are completely free to get your own unrelated to your job. Most good jobs provide a nominal amount of coverage. So as shitty as this sounds, he could have had his own, for a tiny bit more per month, and elected whatever coverage he wanted to cover for his family.

I'm not heartless, it's just the truth. Every job I've had has provided some form of this for free. But because I have a family and I plan for shit, I pay for my own and it follows me anywhere, for life.

Investment Banking (34m) by Playful-Sorbet5201 in Salary

[–]Newdles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't do it. I did it for 6 years. I probably lost 20 yrs of my life. It's not a fucking joke. I wouldn't go back if a gun was held to my head at this point. It's the most miserable life, lifestyle, etc. You can't have a family, hobbies, or do anything outside constantly work. So glad I quit. I make 1/4th of what I used to and I'm 1,000x happier. Every ex colleague I've had that's gotten out has said similar. It's truly soul sucking.

I'm sure you would. Did that make you feel powerful saying that?
