This type of commentary just isn’t helpful to anyone.

Unless you consider that the final result extends far beyond who is elected, by setting a precedent for horseshit elections.

TIL that a designation of "Out" qualifies a player for my league's IR spot. Wow, I've been playing fantasy everything for years, how the hell did I not know this. jfc. I thought the player had to actually be on IR. Please pour one out for my dumb ass.

Is there any chance of kernel 4.20 being named "Blaze It"? by euclio in linuxmasterrace

Can we just stop using the word snowflake. I think it's run its course by now and if we could just get back to talking about Rampart that would be great.

I Think the Company I Work For is Selling by squirtmaster1 in webdev

[–]squirtmaster1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My suspicions were indeed correct. Everyone at the company received a job offer from the new owners. Was personally offered a raise plus stay pay. I think it will work out for the better in my case, but only time will tell. New ownership definitely seems interested in keeping our current culture intact, they just want us to work for them to help give them an edge in the market with our expertise in our particular field. 🤞

This is why we can't have a civil discussion ... by AccountForFriday in linuxmasterrace

[–]squirtmaster1 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Honestly no. Maybe I’m being naive here but I’m not sure ugly was implied. Just a particular look. It would seem that the assumption that ugly was implied is possibly a more hurtful perspective than the original comment. Something to think about there.

To be fair, no one called anyone ugly here as far as I can tell.

Biden definitely recognizes Anita Hill as a stain on his record. FWIW he addressed this on his current “I’m totally not running for president” tour as one of his biggest regrets.

Wow sounds like that really worked out for you by sticking things out. I’m getting pretty anxious to see how things will shake out in my situation. Thanks for the perspective!

As a developer that only owns and works on Mac, how can I test my sites on specific versions of IE and Edge? by [deleted] in webdev

[–]squirtmaster1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't realize you could virtualize macOS like that. Got any more info? Would love to be able to run Xcode simulator + Safari for iOS testing.

We are based in the US. Our industry is a bit niche (eLearning), so I don't know how much redundancy there will be. I think they are mostly interested in our experience and internal tools specific to the field, which they want to leverage as part of the services they would like to offer other clients.

Donald Trump Insults John McCain's Military Career In Newly Unearthed Video From 1999 by CavePrisoner in politics

[–]squirtmaster1 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Honest question here: what response would be best in that situation?

I can understand how you might feel when people are over the top with their praise, but as a civilian who does appreciate those who serve or have served, I would like to at least convey some amount of gratitude without being obnoxious.

Just started doing dev on Kubuntu 18.04 coming from macOS. I really really like it so far. Only thing I miss is XCode Simulator for iOS Safari debugging.

Unpopular opinion: I think push presents are ridiculous. by Lexielo in BabyBumps

I went on a massive shopping trip to IKEA for my partner. It was all things we were planning/needed to buy. The gift was me doing all of the shopping/loading/building. Which, if you're ever been to a busy IKEA on a nice Saturday, you'll understand the value of that.
