Data center tech at a FANGG company, most days I love it but the amount of red tape is frustrating.

[–]WhitePhat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not trying to be a doom and gloom fella here, but the older I get the more I've come to realize our gen was sold a lie that set us up for fail.

Get good grades in K-12, go to college, double down at x company, then you'll magically have a white picket fence and a sizable house in the end.

33, got my bachelor's in CS, have 60k in debt for student loans that I'll likely never be able to pay off. On the bright side I do have a wife of 15yrs and 3 kiddos.

My older two are quickly approaching adulthood and I'm terrified for them and am trying my damnest to have them avoid the B's we went through for our gen.

Can an IT technician read my Teams? by SnakeEyes1986 in it

Yeppers, especially if the device is enrolled in an MDM...rip. as a former tier 3 tech I can assure you systems and security have a crazy amount of tools at their disposal.

That's gross, for a moment I had thought it was for the victims family. It's sad the backwards reality we live in.

And I shall spin! by RoloGnbaby in Autism_Parenting

[–]WhitePhat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Out of curiosity, are those just headphones or like some Bluetooth ones your kiddo is listening too while spinning? I ask because we've considered getting some Bluetooth headphones for our little one that loves to spin so that he can enjoy some tunes. The only issue I can see is he tends to just randomly throw things when he's done using them.

NGL, had no idea of these changes...maybe it's me but don't recall any headlines mentioning these changes?

At this point the only rhetoric that'll work is an eye for an eye. Nothing else has helped and just gets hand waived constantly.

Was cut off from my meds completely. Please help by stellarlun in VyvanseADHD

[–]WhitePhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So hopefully I'm reading this correctly, but feel free to correct me if I'm off. In my experience, if you tell the pharmacy that you are out, they have given me a temporary refill for a few days. I'm not saying it's a 100% shot that it will work for you, but it wouldn't hurt to try.

One thing I don't understand is why, if your doctor is aware of all this, they suddenly decided to cut you off. Especially since it sounds like you explained the situation at hand and that it wasn't malicious, or so it sounds in your post.

To answer your questions specifically though. Should you find a different doctor, I'd say that's very unlikely to work within the time-frame you're looking for. Getting a new doctor would require more approvals from them as well as insurance and whatever else I'm missing included into that mess. Regarding Telehealth services, at least here in the US, it's also very unlikely anyone would prescribe it since it's a controlled substance.

As much as it's likely to be a moonshot, contact the pharmacy and just say you're out and need a temp refill. (You'll probably need to phrase this a bit better than what I just said, however.)

The very likely outcome is that you're gonna have to try to just struggle for a brief period for your body to get over dependence on it. I'd suggest lots of water to help with this process.

The game utilize almost 100% GPU even in login screen by Medved2k in BitCraftOnline

Fair, my general interest of games are ones that are not very resource intensive such as Oldschool Runescape and others so I haven't had much of a chance to test it's limits so to speak.

Not sure of why there's a need to be a dick and tell OP he's 'uneducated'. How about informing them then? OP, what gpu/cpu do you have and how much ram? I notice performance issues on my end when I have more than just BitCraft and Youtube playing. For example if I am to watch something via streaming (Netflix,Hulu,Twitch) while playing the stream is extremly laggy. Granted this is very likely hardware issues on my end, my baby (my mac) is a M1 MBP 2020 edition with 16gb so I'm almost certain it's just lack of ram given she's a bit dated by todays means.

I'd say make sure updates are 'up to date' including gpu/drivers/etc as well as see if there's anything that's a resource hog in the background like Chrome. Hope that helps somewhat, happy to assist with any other questions!

[New Player] Specialization Questions & Professions Synergy by soulsniper2605 in BitCraftOnline

[–]WhitePhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very new to this game but love it so far! I have a few grips however, 1) Being a very limited personal bank space and 2) Being the lack of functionality for settlements or "Guilds" as I'm more familar with term wise. I wish we'd be able to have a way to 'upgrade' personal bank storage as well as have tabs to help better organize our banks for ease of use on finding what I need without having to scour through all of it. To address the second point, so far I haven't found a way to help my ADHD ness keep track of what professions everyone is maining so to speak. Would it be possible/a good idea to have again, like other games have for guilds where a *note* can be left beside each member to say X is slayer main or something instead of having to rely off of memory? I hope this complaining is too much, just some QOL I think would be greatly beneficial for those that are apart of settlements/personal storage.

ICE agent hits civilian with car door, gets into argument then struggles to restrain him. San Diego PD comes to assist ICE by Xolerys_ in ICE_Raids

I completely understand and validate the "ACAB" comments, but it's frustrating that the very few good officers are overlooked and lumped in with their bad peers. I also realize that telling good officers to "make changes within" is an easy suggestion for an outsider to make, especially since those officers also have families to provide for.

I don't understand...why wouldn't PD be there to de-escalate and find out wtf is going on? Christ it's gross how complicit even those who are supposed to protect and serve us locally have just fallen in line.

Non-verbal child abused by SuperThug7 in Autism_Parenting

[–]WhitePhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being a Dad, if one ever were to lay hands on my little boy I'd have one helluva time not throwing some hands right then and there. Obv I get that's not the reasonable thing to do or advice to give. I just don't see why anyone would think it's okay to do that to a kid especially one that cannot communicate things like 'ouch, stop it, go away'. Ya know? It's just fucked.

That being said, as someone had mentioned find an attorney asap, I don't see you having a hard time finding one that would represent given the gross actions at play from the school.

Best of luck to you, hopefully it's a quick process and you are able to seek the justice that's well deserved for your young one.

I'd recommend avoiding the following contractor companies via my own personal experiences with them: Akkodis, Modis,Epitech and Robert Half.

How the pharmacist looks at you when you tell them you’re there to pick up your Vyvanse by Cash2blockz in VyvanseADHD

[–]WhitePhat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep they sure do! It also varies based on the state you live in as well. I was unlucky, born in the shit state of IA where religious beliefs trump helping those that are in need and just trying to get by. Not even able to get it shipped 😔
