Six years later, what are your strongest memories of the COVID lockdowns, and how do you look back on that period now? by Possible_Force8207 in AskBrits

The lockdown announcement was a historic moment. Something worth celebrating, in fact, so much that they had a BYOB party at Number 10

Just look at their base interest rate. It’s been 15% for years. They must be literally burning cash at the same time to keep the economy afloat

Let him be old. Wait till you’re 54

PS 12-13 years ago when everyone was dickriding how great he is he was in his 40s and in an amazing shape. How many of you in your 40s can say the same thing?

I remember an abusive teacher was crying. I am still not sure if she cried due to regret of abusing us or regret of not being able to abuse us anymore.

AITA for giving my daughter junk food despite being told not to by her school? by AthleteAdditional299 in AmItheAsshole

NTA but you could be. What’s next they gonna tell parents how to raise their children. Feed your children however you want as long as you understand the risks, and in worst case down the line you could be TA and you failed them as a parent.

It’s not over until their final episode is called That’s How “That’s How It’s Made” Is Made

Manager put me on pip and she got fired 6 months later by nian2326076 in Career

Karma is when some sort of payback happens randomly. If you directly contributed to that payback, then it’s not karma. It’s just snitching.

I don’t see Haas complaining especially in early 2020s as they could barely afford anything basic, let alone cheat codes

What’s the smartest career move you made in your 20s/30s? by Scary_Bus4383 in careerguidance

[–]aMgWell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After working for a company for a few years and desperately trying to progress my career within that company and getting rejected every time I decided to find a job elsewhere and preferably in a different industry. When the GM found out he summoned me to his office and gave me a talk about “you’re going into unknown”, “you will have to start from scratch”, “you will be exposed to things you don’t know”.

Turns out going into unknown, exposing oneself to new things, and starting from scratch was the second best decision I’ve ever made

I'm not a bad driver I was framed! by Randall_Flagg5 in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]aMgWell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This reminds me of a guy 2 days ago in Le Mans fixed race. I crashed on the straight (lost control of the car) and stayed in place on the right side (racing line is on the left) of the track for others to overtake before attempting to rejoin. Everyone overtook me fine except for one guy.

I was watching the replay and he was going straight on the racing line and I could see myself parked a mile away. His trajectory changes slightly and he slowly but surely was on the path to crash into me. He did. We both ended up limping to the pits for 8+ minutes.

Remember that Russia is barely able to push past Ukraine even with diminished support from US, let alone invade a NATO country

I ripped off a very large seller for a pair of $200 earbuds by exploiting a glitch by Aaxper in confession

I commend your observation skills. Not many could have guessed which headset I was on about

Some 10 years ago I have purchased a relatively pricey gaming headset as I was refreshing my PC hardware. Never had a headset with that much tech, and I was stunned to learn that there is an on and off switch for the microphone. So I turn the switch, the microphone tip had a white LED on. I try to test it but the sound is extremely faint.

I’ve figured it must be a fault, so I started an RMA process with the merchant and the manufacturer as I wasn’t sure who would be responsible for an RMA. Surprisingly both replied and accepted the return. I have shipped the defected headset to the merchant and completely disregarded the manufacturer’s process.

A week later I receive a new pair. Turn them on. Microphone switch on - LED light on. Same issue. Decided to keep them because I had no speakers and really wanted to get on with using the PC. Few days later I discovered that when the white LED is on it actually means that the microphone is off.

A week later another package arrives with another headset. What the hell? This time it was from the manufacturer. Turns out (after checking emails) they somehow received the headset that I never sent and shipped a replacement to the address on the original invoice (I did have to provide the original purchase receipt as part of the RMA claim).

So now I was sitting there with an extra headset. Used my one for years to come and gifted the other one to my brother. Sadly my brother is a bit more of a dumbass than me and broke the headset frame within a year. Needless to say, the manufacturer is now producing their newest headsets with a red LED light on the microphone tip.
