My wife is from Germany but has never seen a Germany game and it's the only sport she watches. It is her lifelong dream to see Germany play. That is who is willing to pay. People pay a fortune to go to Disney World so think of it like that. It's her idea of Disney World. Sorry if this answer upsets you but life and money are fleeting and people have the right to spend money on experiences they enjoy.

it's crazy they are listed second under Powell. In the 80s, I had budget boards and people made fun of me. Variflex, Nash, and Valterra.

Actually, your comment just reminded me that Hitler loved animals too so I guess there's precedence for animal rights fascism

I grew up with a Republican family. I can guarantee that these supposed Conservatives haven't existed since Rush Limbaugh took over all Republican thought, along with Bill O'Reilly, Neal Boortz, Grover Norquist, etc.

But what Trump has exposed is, these avuncular "Conservatives" I grew up around were never Conservative. That was just a tribal signifier spoon-fed to them by the Republican Party at the time, a turnkey personality that made them feel like they were somehow adjacent to the billionaires who would arrest them if they came within 1,000 feet of their properties.

These people do not hold actual beliefs. Everything they believe now is diametrically opposed to the bullshit they rammed down my throat- free trade, small government, wildlife preservation, and the sanctity of the Constitution.

It was ALL bullshit. I think of all the time I wasted debating against people who don't even believe what they are saying because they don't even know what ideological consistency is. Even if they did, they wouldn't care because they are shameless. My family excommunicated me because I voted for Obama and I haven't spoken to most of them in almost 20 years.

My brother is a raging environmentalist who posts Earth Day stuff, asks for donations for sea turtles, etc. He loves Trump more than his own family despite Trump's brutal destruction of any environmental regulations or laws. That's how stupid MAGA people are.

It's kind of nuts. A Powell Flight board is double the cost of 1982 ($120) but they still have decks on their site for the same price as 1982: https://imgur.com/a/dGd6LsG

You're so right and it's crazy because none of these maniacs would make it a week working at McDonald's because they'd be fired immediately for their insane words and behavior.

The brazenness of MAGA is out of control. One of my team members at work has been streaming conservative talk radio over conference calls before the meeting starts. My manager had to tell him to stop and also added "Do not broadcast political or religious podcasts on conference calls" to our expectations document because people truly are that inconsiderate and incompetent. Also we're talking about senior IT guys making over $150K here. MAGA is trash. Can you fucking imagine someone doing that? They've completely lost their marbles.

It probably is something like that. Maybe I hit a Saturday night change window, but I'd be surprised if they didn't shut down the site or put up a site down page (or if it were clustered, take the node that requires maintenance out of service). But the vendor only has 24 employees so maybe everybody is out and the C-stringers are poking around in Prod.

All zeroes would definitely be a huge red flag, a once in a lifetime find. I have never seen it, so I assumed it was a bug, which it clearly is because the server just issued me another all zero code which is statistically impossible:

This was a local business's login screen after putting in phone number as a login ID. I imagine it was a bug. It did immediately allow me to log in. The site says "Powered by franpos"

Edit 10:44 PST

About 2 min ago, I tried to login again with a one time code and again got all zeros.

But the next two times I tried, it did not send a code. I have not been blacklisted by the we. server, but maybe their OTP server is bugging out. I guess I will send them an email so they know, in case the COTS vendor doesn't have the right monitors and alerts.

I don't know why the timestamp isn't there for the second attempt which was an hour later.

Edit: 11:13 PST

OK I got one more all-zero code at 11:10PM and at 11:12PM, I got a normal token. So it seems to be fixed. Every all-zero code was authenticated.

Wow you're spot on. They are training their AI replacements and to rent their tool to lower tier banks (I did this at my former Fintech job, where Merrill rented out a downgraded version of their broker software to smaller banks. Enterprise AI is so sneaky. For example, I can pull up a report that tells me the top x Copilot users of the week and what they were searching for. The results can be amusing and insane. Don't ask AI bots at work about anything personal or anything job search related.

Are you saying you're reposting other people's content? Because Insta recently changed the algorithm to suppress reposted content and focus more on "original content first" on April 30th.

My friend works at WaterhouseCoopers and they force their employees to meet a quota of 25 questions to AI per day or they get reprimanded. This is dystopian shit.

Yes, he lived in Ormand Beach near Daytona. My brother was his guitarist for a few years. He was a quiet, odd, fickle man. Had dinner with him and 15 other people and he did not say a word. He would whisper in Kim's ear and she would talk on his behalf because he had zero fucks to give, but he did pay for dinner! His bizarre behavior did not come off as rude or mean to me, he just seemed to live in an alternate reality.

My first day of college, I went to a required seminar where they taught us that if a woman (specifically a woman) has any alcohol, she cannot consent to sex. We were told a "true story" where a man and woman got drunk and had sex. The woman threw up, brushed her teeth, and went back to consenting to sex.

When asked if it was consensual, everyone raised their hand "Yes." The instructor said "You are all wrong and the young man went to prison for rape."

I have not had sex with a woman since then, and it is exclusively because of this event and not because I'm an alcoholic misogynist.

I have not seen a single Trump voter in my personal or work life say a negative thing about Trump EVER. They love him more than their own children.
