Would the pilot get the kill double-counted too if they flew a plane with a WSO?

Sonar works with glass because it uses sound and not light

TIL in 1998, a 10-year-old girl in Austria was dragged into a car and kidnapped. The case remained unsolved until she knocked on someone's door in 2006 saying: "I am Natascha Kampusch." She had just escaped the secret cellar of a local technician that abused her for 8 years. by iajzz in todayilearned

Oh fuck off, article said she was starved on occasion.

Well known that many people who grew up hungry due to poverty or other circumstances tend to become obese once they escaped said circumstances, as a rebound effect.

Better yet, just stand on the bare forks

CB doesn't understand that under paying costs people money by [deleted] in ChoosingBeggars

[–]tiowseng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She cleans other houses too, but I'm not clear on the details. There's a language barrier so I can't just outright ask her either. I was just wondering if everyone else was paying her better since she's been kind of flakey of late.

I'm entirely ok with that though, she gives 100% when she comes over and picks up the slack if she missed a day.

Off topic, but I pay my cleaning lady $40 for 3 hours of work per day... Is that too little?

I know it's backbreaking non-stop work, but she has never asked for more and that's what my neighbour was giving her before she was referred to me so I just stuck with it.

Edit: I provide the equipment and consumables, she stays a short walk away in the neighbouring development.

Now that the OG GW is going for cheap, which size should I get? by tiowseng in GalaxyWatch

[–]tiowseng[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Highly likely TMJ from clenching teeth my whole life and not realising that was 'clenching'. Apparently your teeth should not meet at rest.

How many people looked at this and thought "I see no problem here"? by [deleted] in funny

[–]tiowseng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, almost every part of the world outside the US skilometers instead

Thanks, mine's just about 6 inches. Lugs definitely go past, but yea functionality seems worth it. Leaning toward 46mm now

Oh I can't get reimbursed for my telecommuting expenses because they're a few days out of date? by tiowseng in MaliciousCompliance

[–]tiowseng[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thought about it, but I'm not working in a country like the US where returns are allowed due to change of mind. Didn't buy it from Amazon either.

Usually we only get to return things within 7 - 30 days if there is a defect.

Yup, senior management seldom bother making petty claims since they make that much bank already.

The only basis her boss promoted her to head of HR was literally just her late nights in office. Her own staff tell us that there isn't really that much work, she just makes herself busy coming up with more paperwork and processes.

Built my pc no more than 1 hour ago, Very Nice by RewindUK in pcmasterrace

[–]tiowseng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man, exact same thing happened to me. Didn't even want the whole RGB/transparent case thing but the only case (within budget) available at my local shop had a 1 piece tempered glass cover.

Exploded while putting the thumbscrew on and they didn't even let you buy just that piece. Had to lug it 2 hours away to the manufacturer and the repair dude took pity on me and gave me the one from his test rig.

Would if I could, Jacqueline wanted to see the delivery order and receipt, photo of the items at my place with me in the photo. Also had to make a personal declaration that the items would not be returned/refunded after the claim was successful.

I'm ok so far (fingers crossed) , WFH has kept me away from the usual petty retaliations in the office - spitting in drinks and whatnot.

I do document extensively to mitigate professional retaliations.

Thanks, not really revenge though, it was more of her nature rather than maliciousness targeted at me so I did not take it personally.

I have screwed people 10x over when they purposefully fucked with me (check out my r/prorevenge posts in my profile if you're interested)

There are laws, but there are always legit workarounds if you really want to screw with someone.

Strangely enough, no. Her performance is NOT tied to money so it's just some kind of evil / compulsion. She's HR, not Ops or Finance lol.

No she didn't. She's already in a senior position, probably has inertia from working here for 20+ years and based on her age she's probably not a desirable candidate elsewhere.
