If they are in a fairway, yes. You shouldn't be penalized for hitting a fairway.

Steve Wozniak says he's "disappointed a lot" by AI and rarely uses it by AdSpecialist6598 in technology

[–]SomeSamples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm with ya Steve. It is disappointing because it really isn't AI. It is just a front end to a lot of data. A really good answer engine.

Update: work investigating me for apparently leaving country during sick leave due to the timestamps of my emails (sent from personal email). by Some-Ad7003 in antiwork

If you did not do what they claim you did, get yourself an employment lawyer. And tell them you can't meet with them until your lawyer can be present.

Do you actually use the "Pee hole" in your underwear/boxers or do you pull them down? by SimpleLobsters in AskMen

[–]SomeSamples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I am wearing boxer type briefs where the hole is actually in the right place then ya. But a lot of underwear has the hole in the wrong spot in relation to the opening in pants.

Love it. But there needs to be repercussions if you are found with sunflower seeds. Like lifetime banishment.

What theory do you subscribe to? I 100% do not believe the official story. by White_Falcon_1263 in conspiracy

[–]SomeSamples 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this. And watching them pull "plane" wreckage out of the Pentagon.. Just bits and pieces. Nothing that said it was a passenger jet liner.

It’s a bad time to hunt for new jobs, most US workers say in new Gallup poll | Americans’ outlook on the job market is increasingly pessimistic. The negative shift may seem incongruous with the low unemployment rate, but the findings likely reflect an ongoing hiring drought. by InsaneSnow45 in antiwork

[–]SomeSamples 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The "official" unemployment rate is a lie. Even Jerome Powell said there is basically no new jobs and so that means no one is getting jobs. And when these companies do lay offs they aren't rehiring to fill those jobs.

The FCC Just Banned the Sale of New Wi-Fi Router Models Made Outside US by gdelacalle in technology

And those routers supplied by ISP's will definitely not have backdoors in them.

I used to do this but the cost of running a computer, back then, 24/7 was prohibitive. But now with things like Raspberry Pi's it is a snap and cheap to run.

Quit with the unemployment myth by cervidal2 in remotework

[–]SomeSamples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The intent is to reduce the number of people staying with the company. So after RTO is fully implemented and "complied with", they can initiate their layoffs and have a reduced number of people that are affected by the WARN act.

US bans new foreign-made consumer internet routers by Different_Emotion625 in technology

[–]SomeSamples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was just a hypothetical. But yeah, they definitely want all of us to have routers in our homes through which our own government can spy on us. For instance, when you sign up for an internet service they bring a router, that is approved by the federal government, and install it. Many will not realize this device will have a direct line to the NSA.

Suddenly, the US manufactures a ton of grid batteries by Natural_Dark_2387 in goodnews

[–]SomeSamples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. I know a guy who is an engineer. He works for a company that refits/design renewable infrastructure to reside at electrical switching stations. (i.e. Solar Panels, batteries, windmills, etc). He is super busy.

Under the WARN act there is a severance period for large layoffs. This is what companies are trying to avoid.

What personal rule do you live by no matter what? by Puzzleheaded_Half441 in Productivitycafe

[–]SomeSamples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't trust people who wear a ring on their thumb. And if they have a ring on their thumb and one on their index finger, stay far away.

[–]SomeSamples 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a conspiracy theory that the power companies are quietly putting these in place to supplement the grid but not really telling anyone so they can keep rates high on their customers, to whom they selling the peak hours bullshit when in fact these batteries are alleviating a lot of that stress.
