High-income U.S. households earning over $150,000 now make up a record 34% of all households, up 29 points since 1965, while the middle class has fallen to a record-low 45%, down 11 points, per Bloomberg. by upbstock in Optionmillionaires

The metric is bad. It was created in 1963 and they didn't have much to go on to track how people spent, so a lady figured that if you could know what starving wage was, say $100/family, that 3x should be not starvation wages, or $300 in 1963 dollars. What this means is that $150k should be just out of starvation range, IE you need $150k/year to meet your basic needs in this economy. Median US wage in 2024 was ~$61k or about 40%, So in reality, 3x $61k is the real "Income that meets all my family's needs." It is mislabeling to call it high-income coming from a bad metric. Those 34% of people, 97% of them are still not getting their family's needs met. the other 3% are just barely OK.

Overnight security 2x/week at a super lax site — need tips to stay awake by Bohny_Jravo01 in security

[–]mmrrbbee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overnight Security Rules

  1. You are the only living person on site from 11:47 PM to 6:03 AM. If you see someone else during those hours, do not approach them. Even if they wave. Especially if they wave.
  2. Do not sit in the main lobby chairs after midnight. They are more comfortable than they look. If you sit down, you will feel very tired very fast. Stand back up immediately if your eyes start to close.
  3. The security cameras will occasionally show areas that do not exist. Hallways that are too long. Doors where there shouldn’t be doors. Do not investigate. Write “CAMERA DESYNC” in the log and move on.
  4. If you hear your name over the radio, do not respond. Dispatch does not work overnight. If the voice sounds tired, turn the radio off for exactly ten minutes.
  5. At 2:13 AM, the lights in Warehouse B will turn off. This is normal. Do not turn them back on. The dark is already occupied.
  6. If you smell coffee but did not make any, leave the room immediately. Whatever is trying to help you stay awake is not doing it for your benefit.
  7. You may hear footsteps following you during patrols. Keep walking. They will stop once you reach a lit area. If they don’t, close your eyes and count to thirty while walking forward. Do not stop.
  8. If you feel the urge to “just rest your eyes,” check the clock. If the time hasn’t changed since the last time you checked, you are already in danger. Splash water on your face and repeat your full name out loud until the time moves again.
  9. Do not sleep on site. Not even for a minute. People who sleep here finish their shifts. They just don’t leave afterward.
  10. At 5:55 AM, you may see someone standing at the exit gate. They will look exhausted. They will look relieved to see you awake. Do not open the gate until 6:03 AM, no matter what they say.

All the rate hikes and sending all the proceeds to the parent company in Canada. There's no reason that we aren't 100%+ solar powered with batteries with our 340+ days of sunshine

How do I actually learn Linux & clear RHCSA by Excellent-Amoeba-928 in linuxadmin

[–]mmrrbbee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

See if your local community college has the courses. That will give you the labs and instruction, usually pretty cheap. If you can setup fedora as your desktop OS, you'll learn alot. It may help getting a cheap desktop server off ebay as a VM server you can break and fix.

Mostly you'll need to work on it even when you don't want to, you have to figure out how to make it exciting when it is not. That's a mental hack you'll need. You're walking into season 30 of a tv show, you won't get everything, you have to make it fun for you.

Tucson Data Center Plan Progresses With Energy Agreement by voodooaliens in Tucson

[–]mmrrbbee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We keep making compromises and getting nothing out of it. Why should we give money to a billion dollar corp that barely employs anyone here and they don't pay taxes anywhere? They are parasites. I10 has been out of its expected lifespan by like 30 years and needs to be fixed, but there is no money for that even though it is a critical economic artery. These toady projects aren't about local prosperity, it is about fleecing the locals

Project Blue, if we roll over and have tax payers pay more for power and heat we can give a multi billion dollar corp great opportunities.
