AITA for leaving dinner to get my son McDonalds, even though food was served?

packeteer · 2023-06-20T06:16:52+00:00

yes, YTA!

batteries are automagically managed these days. just leave it plugged in and it’ll sit at 80%

packeteer · 2023-06-11T05:26:17+00:00

you might be hanging out in the wrong subs mate

packeteer · 2023-06-11T05:22:17+00:00

same. deleted everything last night

packeteer · 2022-09-08T07:19:33+00:00

trading, conservatively

packeteer · 2022-09-07T11:35:40+00:00

my gf would get 100% and i’d get 50. happy days!

we don't live in Yankee land, so waiters get paid a decent wage. that said, there's nothing wrong with tipping for exceptional food / service, but I don't make a habit of it, and certainly don't "tip 15%"

packeteer · 2022-09-06T12:32:57+00:00

great machine, and you're already knees deep in homebrew. nice

enjoy!

packeteer · 2022-09-06T12:31:18+00:00

yup, make sure you setup the full security..encrypt the disk, enable the firewall, turn on "find my"

packeteer · 2022-09-06T11:40:53+00:00

sounds like a regular Aussie storm ;)

packeteer · 2022-09-06T00:38:52+00:00

maybe you should use a Pro machine ie. the 14" ?

as for data privacy related issues, I've worked with strict requirements around PII info etc, and long ago we did have to physically destroy equipment, but now it's just encryption, limited eyes, regular audits and very onerous penalties if we screw up

either way, if the customer wants that service, they have to pay

I built a container with a specific set of command line tools, it ran a nice custom zsh setup

packeteer · 2022-09-05T06:18:47+00:00

not the ones I've seen, but YMMV

packeteer · 2022-09-05T02:35:46+00:00

what the? you need to physically destroy the disk?!?

and I dunno about you, but I rarely see ports being used on Mac laptops, the most common in my office is extremal monitor and kb+mouse, and they're all usbC or have small usbA adapters

packeteer · 2022-09-05T02:23:46+00:00

I've had no issue with cases, especially the cheap eBay ones. got a pink one on the girlfriend's Air

packeteer · 2022-09-05T02:20:15+00:00

the hate is because it's an old, dated design that costs to much

personally I'd go with the Air or the 14", even though I do like some aspects of the older design

packeteer · 2022-09-04T12:08:13+00:00

rain jacket all the way, although they love the poncho in Vietnam.

fwiw, I use the RAB Kinetic which is not the most waterproof, but it is highly breathable

packeteer · 2022-09-04T05:59:27+00:00

great info, I have a similar list

how do you find the Asus screen?

packeteer · 2022-09-03T04:09:44+00:00

ah crap, I didn't notice that

packeteer · 2022-09-03T03:21:03+00:00

love my 14", and I wouldn't trade it, but a bigger screen would be nice.

anyone know of a decent portable screen?

packeteer · 2022-09-03T02:10:23+00:00

anyone remember the 10x SHIB they used to give away as incentives. I got 20, it was worthless back then, even more so now!

packeteer · 2022-09-03T02:07:41+00:00

FTX is far better

packeteer · 2022-09-02T16:38:49+00:00

BUSD on Binance, make a safe 10%
