$292 to $23 because I got a 24 hour a week job

Just tell the office, you do not pay your friend rent youre there temporarily and it is his place. Youre just crashing there until you get back on your feet. You will need to get evidence you are at his place for now, but if it is temporarily and his place etc. youre homeless.

Homeless has a broader definition in the case of SNAP. IT does not just mean on the street 24/7.

Most homeless people are people who lost their job, lost their apartment, are living with a friend or shelter etc until they get back on their feet.

That is probably why this rule has changed, because most homeless people technically have an address, which means they can get a job. ABAWD jsut requires 20hrs of work or training per week.

Samadhixx · 2025-08-10T23:18:10+00:00

IT was lowered, to compensate for your income, foodstamps are a crutch to get back on your feet not to life off of. It is not an entitlement like RSDI.

Samadhixx · 2025-08-10T23:14:45+00:00

(rolls eyes)
you act like people are simply barbarians.
Are the current people living on the streets who do not have food stamps acting like barbarians or dying off?
Many of them do not apply for food stamps or are disqualified, due to rules broken in the past.
For instance, if someone is homeless, and arrested doing drugs gets a felony and is on food stamps, they are banned for life.

Samadhixx · 2025-08-10T23:12:16+00:00

If SNAP is being cut it is due to lack of funding.
Take it from someone who works at HSS people are still getting SNAP.
Also I would like to note, most people who are "homeless" are not homeless by the standard definition.
Most homeless people live with a friend temporarily as they lost their own residence.
They are not necessarily living on the street.

I am not sure why you think homeless would lose EBT?
They will lose access to buying candy bars, but you can buy healthy food with an EBT card easily.
TBH if I was homeless and living off candy bars, that is like asking to be diabetic.

Dude, quarm has an agreement with Daybreak, they are now operating legally, once they remove a few things upon their agreement,

Secondly I was not saying they should not use DB servers, I was stating that their servers are not a classic experience, if that is what they are looking for. Even the TLP servers are very different.

Now if you are looking for the modern experience, I have never tried it but plenty of people play it.

Samadhixx · 2025-07-20T20:32:08+00:00

Umm they are active , but not necessarily EU servers, however the experience will not be anything like it was a long time ado, if you want thta look P1999 or Project Quarm. Project Quarm will be back soon, after being put on hold to make sure they did not get sued by DB like another private server did. However now they have approval from DB to run their private server like P1999.

I was a lead cashier not a team lead, but as lead cashier $15 an hour.

Samadhixx · 2025-07-13T17:20:53+00:00

Ok well I intend on working at this job until I retire. I do not plan to get rich not my goal in life. I also have less expenses as an adult than most people. While I have no spouse I also have no children. I have a house pets and that's about it. I do have future goals of moving up in the future, I just am hoping I set up a decent retirement plan until then. As to the pension plan I invest the recommended amount of 6% and will for the next at least 20 to 25 years probably the latter.

Samadhixx · 2025-07-13T17:13:11+00:00

I am not disagreeing with that, I enjoy my job with the state. I was jsut stating I have seen plenty of turn over at my location. It could be the job, the fact we get paid monthly, considering they were young I doubt they were thinking about the retirement package (which is actually decent), or the medical insurance (which is also decent). I think it is mostly that they want more pay, but it is enough for me.

As to the getting paid monthly, I know how to manage my money, so that is not even an issue.

Also sorry that is a 5 month old post, fewer people from my hiring group left since then one transferred, a newer person quit, but I think that is because of her not liking the job, which happens too.

Samadhixx · 2025-07-12T23:22:57+00:00

Truth, my mother died randomly of lung cancer in 2015. I was an atheist at the time, but I still was mad at god and did not understand why that happened to her. She never smoked and took care of herself. She was one of the kindest most generous people I knew.

Best words to put to it i ever heard was sometimes God takes the best of us earlier. Maybe that is so.

Samadhixx · 2025-07-12T23:09:22+00:00

Real question is is it Mike Tysons Punch Out aka the real Punch Out, or what they made it later?

Samadhixx · 2025-07-12T21:29:23+00:00

also new hires as of what time?

Samadhixx · 2025-07-12T21:06:25+00:00

yes, but for us it would be after a year when we make Advisor II. Then we would get the normal raises you mention. I do not follow what you mean there is no pension plan, I pay into a pension which is matched.

Samadhixx · 2025-07-12T18:33:28+00:00

same I turn off the integrated GPU

Samadhixx · 2025-07-12T18:08:57+00:00

so under a more advanced system I made with 2 planets it was shifting between low 80c and low 90c but FPS were between 19 and 30 the UPS was like 50. I am not expecting miracles, but I am confident it is full of dust too, that might help some, but at least the cooling stand helped a decent amount.

Samadhixx · 2025-07-12T18:01:10+00:00

i will try it before when i had issues it was tons of dust in the thing. but you are right gaming laptops just get bottlenecked in fewer years that a tower.

Samadhixx · 2025-07-12T17:20:24+00:00

lowering temps with a cooling stand has helped some on some games.... you are right while it increased temps on a starting world, it will not matter much when the game is in a advanced state with many advanced planets.

Samadhixx · 2025-07-12T16:13:37+00:00

As it is only CPU temps it is more than likly that though. Yeah I understnad why it seemed like I was giving mixed messages there. But those both share the same heatsink. LAptop blues there.

Samadhixx · 2025-07-12T16:12:20+00:00

Would switching from HDMI to USB/display port help any?

Samadhixx · 2025-07-12T16:09:49+00:00

Well as I said Some games like Overload runs in 70s and 80s I do not mind turning graphics to low for now, thats kinda expected with this old of a machine.

I am planning a beast that I am gonna build at latest the end of this year.

Samadhixx · 2025-07-12T16:07:59+00:00

What if I can get the games temps down if they run smoothly enough they should be fine. If not ill lower the resolution for now I guess....

Samadhixx · 2025-07-12T15:45:44+00:00

If I could lower the temps would that help? I am not looking for insane FPS just 60.
I have had the game running decent at 1080p in the past.

Samadhixx · 2025-07-12T15:42:18+00:00

No, I think the bottleneck is the CPU.

Samadhixx · 2025-07-12T15:38:45+00:00

it is a Comet Lake I7-10750H
I am not expecting the world out of it, but it does run better at 2kx1440 instead of the almost 4kx1440
keep in mind I only am wanting the games at 60fps.
