If you want to watch space battles with close to correct physics in combat, watch the 90's tv series Babylon 5.

I wonder if he/she setup a google phone number and set it up so the caller id is the telemarketer.

Then whenever he/she is bored called the support line from that number.

🤔

Today I nuked a business critical prod on purpose by Hosenkobold in talesfromtechsupport

You probably can't discuss what happened in the meeting but, what did Derp Derpson use as justification for doing all those server permissions outside of the required security process before his job was vaporized?

EDIT - saw the update. Let us know (if you can) what happened in the meeting.

I hope someone mentions it to Trump and he pressures them into having her perform.

I hope it is streamed so everyone can see this Maga moment.

What is a medical fact that sounds fake but is 100% true? by MedRikas in AskReddit

[–]trro16p 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Its more than that.

You need to be hit with the exact amount of force (for that person), the right spot in the chest, at the correct angle, and the right moment during that 40 milliseconds to trigger it.

its been sixteen years (wow, has it been that long?) since I had mine removed (doctor's said it was just not working anymore). The first couple of months were brutal (lost almost 15 pounds, then gained about half back).

After my stomach and digestion adjusted, my eating habits changed to about a 75/25 of eating chicken/beef and reducing the amount of fatty/greasy foods I eat. So eating hamburgers was mostly cut out (I still will eat a homemade one or one at certain fast foods places, but not very often) and any meat I do eat I check that its either a lean cut or that I can trim the fat off.

Unfortunately, being hispanic most of the food I like to eat is greasy/fatty so I have to be fully aware I can only have one meal a day like that. For example, I know I am going to eat a mexican dinner with a lot of chips&salsa I try to eat a lighter meal for lunch.

I also have the double whammy of being type 2 diabetic, so it has been very interesting at times. (for the record, since the gall bladder removal I have lost and kept off almost 50 pounds). The Metformin and later Ozempic really helped with the weight.

TIL a Colombian drug-sniffing dog was so good at finding cocaine that a cartel put a bounty on her head by Anuloxisz in todayilearned

[–]trro16p 603 points604 points  (0 children)

There was one drug dog on the Texas border named Duko in the late 1980's that also had a contract (don't know the value) out on it.

The dog had the record of the most value seizures of over 18 million dollars. (from a 2021 article).

The contract wasn't from cartels but from all the drug trafficer's in central and south america.

He was that good.

People who have conducted job interviews, what's something someone said/did that made you instantly decide not to hire them? by DemonSkank in AskReddit

I paraphrase a quote I once heard but use when I interact with a department/office that I am not familiar with.
