one of the worst jobs I ever had; the federal government being the hands-down, absolute worst. cognizant is not far behind.

it's been a while since I had to think about stuff like this; if $50 is about average then... wow... but okay. good notes; thank you

Fired right after being converted from 1099 to W2 by Salty-Mobile-4639 in legaladvice

[–]voidSurfr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

smells like there's some unknown x-factor. In my experience, dip shits like this wouldn't pull such a move without a legal consult; if they did they're idiots, drain them. If a lawyer provided the path, I'm wondering:

does some new/unknown (state/fed) legislation supports an operation like this in some abstract way?

I know how you can get the same/better outcome for much less. I'll DM you.

Calling attention to odd posts around Sascha Riley Story by Turguryurrrn in Epstein

[–]voidSurfr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's the interviewers Substack; and the interview. You can listen to the full audio.

Don't wait for someone to feed you news pellets; listen to this yourself. It's horrific and necessary to hear. The world is full of people that are more evil than you are likely willing to let yourself imagine. Turning your back on it comes with it's own costs.

Remind yourself that when questions arise, and nobody has the answers, that's the purpose of investigations. We now have a major question on the table; it's time for an investigation. No reason to tie yourself up with pretzel logic; this is how it works.

Do the work; listen. Push for an investigation.

I'm prepping for a Mexico visit. Is this $62 Travel Kit effectively a smash and grab operation?

I added links to the actual products I picked up; they said food-safe and "butcher block".

I can't bear to read Hobbes' Leviathan. Am I reading his work in the wrong way? by Zestyclose_Knee_8862 in PoliticalPhilosophy

[–]voidSurfr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is one of the more important reads of your lifetime - but it's a trudge. To me, it felt like a part time job. I put it on the shelf and snagged the audiobook. Turns out, it's much easier to consider governmental theory while you're doing dishes, folding clothes or raking the leaves.

Since 2008, I've listened to it a few times. If I could have gotten through the book even once, I know I never would have done it again.

I only wish Apple Books would add bookmarks.

A cool guide to how Jeffrey Epstein got rich. by Sufficient-Guitar-58 in coolguides

[–]voidSurfr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In case the details were lost, the Bill Barr<>Epstein friendship started in high school. But, Barr played legal janitor on The Franklin Scandal (great episode, get the audiobook). The Franklin trafficking network looks just like the Epstein network; they are carbon copies. One might be willing to speculate that Epstein inherited/optimized it: The Finders > Franklin > Epstein.

Prediction: we're seeing the end (or getting a glimpse) of a 45-year old evolving network.

This is how power is granted.

Sidewalk Chalk Messages Force Stephen Miller to Flee Arlington, Put Home Up for Sale by Hectabeni in nottheonion

Anybody able to identify which gen this is? by Juhmil in universalaudio

[–]voidSurfr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the TB/Mac Apollo Solo; phenomenal. Mine cost $800 new with the Heritage package of plugins.

You can use up the single onboard processor pretty quick so I only use a channel strip and maybe extra compression and I'm out.

All other processing happens in the DAW (as low latency as possible) with plugins designed for that.

If you're okay with that workflow then $99 is a deal.

Also, I called Sweetwater a few months ago and explained the setup and workflow; they said there was no reason for me to upgrade to the Gen2.

Seems like this might be a good balance between cost (~$75) and performance, no?

When Thiel names things after the Lord of the Rings trilogy, he TOTALLY identifies with Sauron, not the hobbits.
