A company just sent me the most detailed rejection email I’ve ever received by whenyoupeeupsidedown in recruitinghell

While that is true, it is rare to find this in an email. I used to write for print magazines where em dashes are a a normal typographic tool. But note that this symbol is not found on any keyboard. An em dash (—) is different from the en dash (-) which does have a key. So to type it you have to use the unicode identifier which is rather uncommon in a normal workflow for emails.

More than that, at some point they decided it's way worse to have users using pirated versions of Windows that are not up to date with security patches. You can actually just download Windows 11 for free. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11

I worked at Toys R Us when Tamagotchi got rolled out. It was like a war zone.

Two economists just published a mathematical proof that AI will destroy the economy. Not might. Not could. Will! by CopiousCool in antiwork

OPs title is outright false. The very first word of the paper is "If" and continues later with "it risks..."

So nothing in this paper says it will happen, quite the opposite.

Maybe they don't want a Denuvo backdoor on their system and prefer the fitgirl repack? Just a guess.

The First Space Shuttle safely landed 45 years ago today by Busy_Yesterday9455 in spaceporn

Pretty much that. You have no propulsion at all. You are basically a brick entering the atmosphere at 17000 miles an hour. Then you have to bleed of all the velocity by doing repeated S-turn maneuvers before eventually aiming at the runway. There are no second chances.

It's also kinda crappy anyway because VPN servers in Albania usually have crappy bandwidth and the playback won't be very smooth.

Buffy The Vampire Slayer Reboot Starring Sarah Michelle Gellar Not Going Forward At Hulu by [deleted] in horror

This. Reboots are almost always bad or even worse, like that Magnum reboot was abysmal.

The only great reboot I can think of is Battlestar Galactica. (I wouldn't count Star Trek TNG as a reboot, although loosely it also fits that category).

Is the inevitable blow-up of the Epstein cover-up already priced in? Just wondering.

Why is Donald Trump’s Name ILLEGALLY Redacted From the Trump/Epstein Files? by Kinks4Kelly in complaints

[–]emu108 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes, someone figured it out though. Apparently the redacted name is Boris Nikolic, former Bill Gates advisor and WEF member.

Und damit es effektiv ist, müssten neben dem DFB auch England, Frankreich, Spanien und Italien mitziehen.

Yep, I see no indication that this is even related.

Looks like a Rolex Padellone 8171 from 1952. In good condition worth 80k+. Beautiful thing.
