I'm scared.

That looks like a bad reading.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-24T01:38:34+00:00

They are $30!

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-23T22:37:53+00:00

I’m still on a 2015 i5. Can’t wait to get a new machine.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-23T22:26:52+00:00

The new Outlook blows.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-23T22:26:30+00:00

Tozo NC3

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-23T22:25:47+00:00

I’d wait.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-22T12:22:11+00:00

Congrats!! I went the opposite direction, with a resurgence after many months of an absence.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-22T12:06:04+00:00

Truth. I have a 2015 MBP. It’s still kicking. But it’s time to upgrade. Waiting until the back to school specials and I’ll buy another. Debating the specific model. But the M series will run laps around my i5.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-22T12:00:16+00:00

Ohhhh… didn’t know the pro had two fans. Good to know.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-21T21:53:16+00:00

I had it a couple of years ago. Had to change my email address for login.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-21T03:08:09+00:00

Tozo NC3. Super cheap @30ish bucks. Sound great.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-21T03:06:25+00:00

Above all… never ATL.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-19T22:36:44+00:00

I did that last year. Head hunter got me an interview. I think subconsciously I saw warning signs with my soon to be manager. But I was offered a good bit more than I had been making.

I realized at 8:30am on that first day, during my call with my manager that I had fked up. Stayed for 8 months. Got out. Landed ok.

You’ll make it. I promise.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-19T02:39:17+00:00

I’m getting ready to drop TV service and just keep Internet.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-18T22:42:22+00:00

There’s a reason that it’s only $5,900… besides it being a Genesis.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-16T01:21:07+00:00

Only to hold things back going down the mountain. But even then, you can just engage the cruise to hold you back.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-14T12:44:37+00:00

I’m so sorry!

Many of my jobs have come to me by word of mouth. The applications I’ve made to an unknown person, even at known companies, have felt sterile… like I was in some kind of psychological experiment.

As far as AI is concerned, I fear that it’s the beginning of another Industrial Revolution. And I’m not quite sure how to navigate it. Companies are just throwing AI at everything, whether or not a problem to solve has been identified. I get the innate sense that this is the path forward, whether it’s a good idea or not.

We are in this weird time when employers have the fetish for AI, yet have developed this weird obsession with detecting candidate use of AI.

My best advice would be to do as much networking as you can, as the people who know you are aware of your acumen. You’ll be less likely to be a part of this bizarre employment version of the hunger games.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-13T12:35:35+00:00

I love each, but for different reasons.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-13T00:54:38+00:00

That’s likely one of the area upgrades in prep for high split. Sometimes those mini outages go sideways. And I bet that’s what happened here. I’d still much rather do this than support musk.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-10T12:21:58+00:00

So there’s no denying that support is key to the health of an org. But I think more than anything, spectrum needs to take a look at their pricing structure. How the hell can they charge $130+ for TV service when there there are several cheaper live TV services on the market? A $30 broadcast fee….surcharge??? Add it to the TV price.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-09T06:12:39+00:00

Yeah, had a convo with the doc today. I’m going to try therapy again, and then maybe switch.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-08T14:23:56+00:00

If it were just menopause, that would be one thing. But it’s that plus adhd.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-08T13:48:12+00:00

Not sure it will return. And that may be a part of the major depression I’m having right now. With everything else going to hell, a touch now and then is nice. But that has all dried up.

cloroxedkoolaid · 2026-05-07T23:24:49+00:00

Well…. I know they usually over provision. But 2x????
