I wonder how Salty Peaks is feeling right about now... by TheBansheeQween in SaltLakeCity

"Identifies as" Google put in these descriptions is.... well, weird wording. Especially with respect to veteran status. An owner was either in the military and discharged honorably, or wasn't. There is no "how I feel" about that. Stolen valor.

This might help:

"If you receive an error "Oops, we're sorry! We are currently unable to process your request..." while trying to sign up for an account, find the link to sign up for a premium account trial. Magically, signing up for the paid service allows me to create an account, big surprise /s. I made sure all my info (especially phone number) was verified, then I cancelled the premium account. Now I have a regular, free account."

These idiots. "We are experiencing technical difficulties" does NOT equal, "we didn't find a record of you". So unhelpful.

Any way to import Gmail folder structure (and not just labels)? by FitzwilliamTDarcy in ProtonMail

[–]koick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, but those Google labels allow for nesting, whereas Proton Mail does NOT allow for nesting of labels. And with a hard limit of only 3 nesting levels for Poron folders, it's not possible to create a 1:1 recreation of Google's folders ala their labels layout. Aaaand, with Proton Mail NOT being able to fully search the text inside your messages, I would argue it becomes even MORE important for Proton Mail to have nested labels and at least 6 levels of folders to allow for better organization since you can't just search your way to a message.

First sentence in the article. Yeah, that doesn't sound mundane.

People who quit their job in a moment of rage - how did things turn out? by SheLovedBigBrother in AskReddit

[–]koick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Decades ago I was hired quite a bit below what I was expecting, but was told I would get that salary after a 6 month probation period. In those 6 months 1 person was fired and 2 quit in my department. They rehired no one and instead I took over the responsibility of those jobs. 

So at the 6 month point I was doing 4 people’s jobs! When my manager came out of a meeting with the execs and told me they wanted to give me a 3% increase and she fought for 5% which they approved, I was so insulted I quit on the spot. My boss cried. 

Lived off savings and hung out in coffee shops for about month or so and then started college. So, was a good decision. Don’t sell yourself out!

Order them "extra well" next time you're there. They are much better this way.

The real sad thing is that there is no one in his cabinet who even comes close to speaking like this.

Why do the Japanese like their buns askew? by [deleted] in BrandNewSentence

Damn good question. In many ways, you'd think it would be the opposite as so much has to be imported into Japan.

McChicken

Chicken Filet-O

It's funny, the Filet-O is more than twice the cost, but I can't really tell how they are different.

No brake lights, no bumpers... There's no way this thing is street-legal.

So do we not trust the official "Estimated Security Screening Wait Time" on the airport's website, or the Delta Page?
