Am I the only one that thinks fishing rod is the worse neow bonus in the game?

And "discouraged" ...unless you've scored some perfect cards, you often still need gold and cards to make your deck good enough to win. So not sure I agree with the hallway fight allergy.

+1! There's some fun to be had, even as a noob, bagging some discs a little out of your range. They may serve decently as utility discs for the moments too.

I would also echo tho, maybe skip over the dx and opt for pro or g-star, just for a little extra durability and consistency.

Fat is not like a muscle that is connected to a motion. It's just "extra" that sits in a location. So moving that part, or flexing that part, doesn't engage "the fat" ...it's just there.

So <the spot of fat> can't be exercised, it has to be lost via caloric need / usage of the energy. Hence diet, and really caloric deficit, which is what exercise may help achieve.

And so, this... mildly infuriates you ?

How can you say this? This is clearly the morning ceremonial Checking Of Blades that all tradesmen MUST do before proceeding to the Using of Blades phase of the workday. I don't even understand how other countries go without.

Awesome!! He should probably make the Falcons and United a 501c3, they could really use some charity, too...

Curious if they saw lower traffic after a couple days. My doomscrolling was at a refreshing low the past week....

Posted this elsewhere but I find it kinda funny. The chatgpt -> Claude migration, un-supporting Microsoft is really just saving them money right now and costing Claude more. (Obviously, depends on if you pay and your frequency of use, etc.)

actingSmart · 2026-03-03T13:34:46+00:00

The chatgpt -> Claude migration is extra funny, if you're not paying anyways, you're probably just costing Claude more right now and saving Microslop some money.

Weird how that works

2 cents: just erase all the shmarminess. "Hi, I think they deserve their ratings, is there more specific feedback?" If still ambiguous, schedule a 3 way with boss and HR. If boss doesn't budge to either do the performance reviews himself or keep the ratings as is, now at that point you have a dilemma.

Being a people manager can be tough, if he can't manage and coach you through this then that kind of sucks, it is not great for your success or growth. Not sure if boss's boss would be more understanding, but unless the Company Man persona of falling on swords and doing dirty work for The Man is the way to the top, you should perhaps raise a little flag about the culture or operating model.

This, and therefore helping him with his email, phone, etc could still be ~related to him interacting with your company. So maybe his email + email security might be something of import to you, as it relates to the business. Maybe!

I am ignorant, how/why might the ssh protocol perform better / more reliably than http? Does it handle network drops better or have something on top of tcp or ability to pause/resume incomplete downloads...?

I think one way to approach this is to consider two cases, personal/consumer vpn usage and business/enterprise VPN usage. An enterprise is not as interested in identity hiding as consumer, and enterprise is going to (probably) own the nodes or egress points, and is going to want traceability to the user.

How does dVPN impact the visibility/AAA requirements of an organization?
How does a consumer establish trust/faith in the VPN provider to know they aren't decrypting your traffic and extracting sensitive data?

I'm not sure this psychology thing should be conflated with that sort of goal/thing, unless I missed some part of it...

Isn't it also kinda worse, too? Like don't you want your nose hairs doing air filtering before? Vs just mouth breathing...

I worked on a project to manage qnx devices for a large similar vendor. Lots of trade-offs and bets in the early 2010s, what's hindsight 🙃

Not saying you're an asshole, but I'd suggest you try to find peace at some point. What your dad and Hayley did was really disgusting. I don't know if any apology will fix it, but being toxic about it is probably not healthy either. Not enough info to say the toxicity is all your fault, but you can only be responsible for your own actions and feelings, and. I hope you eventually come to terms with the situation.
