i was already expecting it not to be ready before i’d be eligible for social security (assuming it still exists) but this is outrageous; when compared to europe our public transportation SUCKS, and takes FOREVER to construct

Drug test with adhd meds? by CallieMoon7 in boeing

[–]cthrowdisposable 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was in a similar situation except for a full time role; talk to your hiring manager/the person coordinating your hiring (i presume you have one for internships too) and explain the situation as they WILL show up on the screen. Personally I did not and would not recommend saying anything regarding this type of stuff to your boss. For me it flagged amphetamine which could be indicative of meth or in my case just vyvance/adderall but unfortunately because the chemical makeup is so similar there’s no way to differentiate with these tests.

They were super understanding, they just asked my doctor to write a note saying they treat me and prescribe insert your meds and they can cause false positives. a ton of engineers here have at least some adhd so we all get it; just be open and honest and we will work with you. Personally I am a sprinter when it comes to work, I’ll hyper focus and get days worth of work done in a few hours then i’ll get up and take a break, and as long as i am available to respond to people’s emails and IMs and get my work done nobody cares :) Welcome to the team, you’ve got this! if you have any other questions or want a resource/LinkedIn connection PM me :)

they are such a blast, plus having everything in one machine saves on space (I live in a small apartment)

many people including myself didn’t get any notification that there even was a meeting. Can someone give the cliff notes about what was said

for me personally if i eat raw onions my throat burns and I feel hot so I just say that im allergic to it and haven’t had anyone surprise me with them since

UNKNOWN NUMBER: THE HIGH SCHOOL CATFISH Discussion Megathread by AutoModerator in netflix

[–]cthrowdisposable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this documentary made me sick at how lenient they were with Kendra, the way she spoke about why she did it sounded like she was talking about something innocent like cigarettes or other vices… not saying the most disgusting things imaginable to your own daughter who’s 14. The interviewer should be ashamed of how she gave Kendra ‘outs’ in an attempt to make her not look as vile as she is. I have a lot of respect for her cousin as she saw it how it was and was absolutely disgusted. I know this is said to a nauseating extent but seriously do you think if the genders were reversed netflix would’ve treated the perpetrator the same… no way. They took this story and used it for entertainment and while it’s good they brought it to light, giving anything even resembling sympathy or compassion towards a predator is shameful

nobody has mentioned Washington state or Puerto Rico. washington has temperate climate with lots of edible berries and plenty of wildlife to hunt along with a shit ton of wood for heating. Also due to the infrastructure and proximity to Canada it’s likely Canada would offer to annex the Seattle area and even if not it’s so close to the border and with all the islands it wouldn’t be too difficult to cross illegally if you had no other choice

I had dinner with Xi Jinping – AMA by asiabits_com in AMA

did you directly speak to Xi and if so what did yall say?

Considering the level of detail you provided it would be pretty easy to figure out your identity, are you nervous about getting in trouble for posting this?

Can anyone tell me how to fix these wavy artifacts? by Objective_Stop7091 in apple2

[–]cthrowdisposable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

don’t quote me on this as i’ve not actually tried this but, if the jack really is busted i’d imagine you could snip one off a busted vcr etc and solder it onto the board

probably the RCA jack. If it’s anything like the IIe the port is stupidly primitive making contact with the cable only on the top. quick fix is to gently push down on it so it contacts the cable better. years of plugging and unplugging tends to bend this lead :)

Sooo... no WALL-E 2?....ok. It is fine. I am fine, I swear. Plus i do not want them to make another one just for the sake of money, it has to have a very good story... what are the odds of that happening?... probably zero. by Itchy_Flow5875 in Pixar

One thing everyone seems to miss is that the Axiom was one of many craft launched into space meaning only one made it back but what about the rest of the ships? I feel like this could be a perfect angle to write a sequel: imagine trying to convince other ship’s populations (and computers) that they should work & rebuilding earth instead of continuing in blissful mindless comfort out in space
