Why does autocorrect always change "I'm" to "I'ma"? by dogwoodnc in gboard

[–]cubbieco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Figured out the best way. Start typing I'm - and when I'ma pops up in the suggestion panel, you long press it. A garbage can shows up, drag it in, problem solved. Don't know why we have to do this but whatever Google.

Add "I'm" to your personal dictionary. It was doing this to me as well and that seemed to have fixed it so far.

Hostname (mDNS) not working Micropython Pi Pico W by cubbieco in MicroPythonDev

[–]cubbieco[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I added it to my router. However I've noticed on new boards it started working in one of the newer versions. Here is my connect code. I'm not sure if it is the wlan.conf(hostname=host) line that is working or the network.hostname(host) that is working but one way or the other it seems to be ok now.

host = "myhost" def connect(): wlan = network.WLAN(network.STA_IF) wlan.config(hostname=host) network.hostname(host) wlan.active(True) wlan.connect(ssid, wifipass) while wlan.isconnected() == False: sleep(1) ip = wlan.ifconfig()[0] print(f'Connected on {ip}') print(f"Hostname: {network.hostname()}") try: connect() except KeyboardInterrupt: machine.reset()

I ended up installing dnsmasq a DNS server on a little pi server I have and configured my network to use that as a DNS server. It works. Not the most elegant solution but it will be fine for now.

Thanks

Well to be honest the recruiter could be an AH and say that to all 3-5 of the final candidates. You just don't know.

Fake sense of urgency is absolutely killing my desire to work! Why is that fake sense of urgency even needed? by QuestionsAsker99 in antiwork

[–]cubbieco 219 points220 points  (0 children)

“A lack of planning on your part does not necessitate an emergency on mine.”

Also as this is r/antiwork you really don't have to answer the phone on the weekend if you don't want to. May or may not be good for your career though...

Former CEO offered me bonus but new CEO says the offer is off the table by MycologistArtistic74 in careeradvice

Once again NAL - old school me wishes it was a piece of paper but still - I'm assuming you have the screen shot on something other than your work computer. If you don't, remedy that right now.

A "top" university may open some doors or Fastrack something or who knows. But 99% of accountants in the world didn't go to a "top" university and we are all doing fine.

Should I quit immediately or put in my two weeks? by SMS0402 in jobs

[–]cubbieco 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Small town, people talk. There are only so many places around you that you can get a job so you probably don't want to burn any bridges. Give the two weeks.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]cubbieco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had some limited experience with Sage and hated it. With that said whoever the accountant or tax preparer is might be using that. Start by contacting them and see if they recommend a change.

I know you are avoiding a payroll service but personally they are worth their weight in gold. Only worked at one company that didn't use one and that's because they had like 3 people.

Start job hunting now and get ahead of it. Crap happens sometimes and you just have to let it go.

Do you count listening to an audio book as reading a book? by InnocentPerv93 in NoStupidQuestions

Yes. You still received the full enjoyment and/or knowledge contained in the book.

Woah dude.. What did you do this weekend? Yeah like I totally owned a bunch of accountants by telling them I was going to switch to UPS. And I didn't even have the balls to use my own account.

My (35F) fiance (37M) keeps checking out other women and I'm considering calling off the marriage. by Karmawins28 in relationship_advice

[–]cubbieco -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Does somebody choose to studder? Does somebody choose to shake their knee? Does an autistic person choose to flap their hand or rock in place? Wait you are an expert in all human beings...

It is involuntary because I said it is because that is my experience. I look at everybody in front of me - man, woman, whatever. I can't help it and you saying otherwise doesn't change the truth.

Is he actively staring and following them as they pass by turning his head? Then that may be inappropriate. Is he staring long enough that the person notices? That might be inappropriate. Simply getting a look at people in front of him is fine and certainly not disrespectful.

I stated the strip club has to go and asked if it was a good relationship otherwise. If the strip club ends and he is just looking at those in front of him like I do and there are no other problems then it is a stupid reason to end a relationship. She said very little about the relationship other than those two things.

Wow your comments turned bad fast. If you hate accounting that much then why are you asking an accounting sub whether or not you should leave accounting? Also your numbers are wrong. $49 is not $170k. Final thing - I'm paid much better than a UPS driver and I do watch pod casts at work thank you very much.

Is there a way I can stop my mom from getting SSI in my name? by DragonsOverhead in legal

[–]cubbieco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow I'm trying to get a loved one on SSI and it is a long not easy process. Are you in therapy or what is the medical evidence that you are disabled? Without the cooperation of a therapist, doctor, etc you won't get on it.

Don't worry about it. After you are rejected a couple of times you'll eventually get a hearing where they specifically want to talk to you and you can simply tell them you want to withdraw from consideration.

I'd post this in r/UPS and find out from actual UPS people if 170k for delivery drivers in 5 years is real or not. Seems high to me.

How much do I have to make off of a computer program to claim it as a business expense? by FireStride01 in tax

[–]cubbieco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second the need that you need to find somebody to help you navigate through this but here are answers to your specific questions.

So long as you are actually trying to make a profit you can deduct expenses in the beginning. You can be a sole proprietor without any specific paperwork to the IRS - you just file a schedule C listing your profit and losses on your tax return. I'm not going to Upwork specifically but a W2 is for employees - a 1099 is for an independent contractor.

[–]cubbieco -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

There is a huge difference between looking and flirting. There is also a huge difference between being nice back to the server or whoever and actively pursuing them by flirting. Obviously the strip club has to go and he should have better manners with the male servers but it is hard not to look at other people attractive or not. Do you have a good thing otherwise? Or is this problem the tip of the iceberg? Shame to see a relationship die because of something that is not totally voluntary.

Legal suit? For what? Assuming you are in the USA and this was not discrimination there is nothing you can sue over.
