That is the dumbest thing. All of my comp sci stuff was open everything because out in the real world you would never be programming without those resources available. I don’t see why IT wouldn’t be the same. If they are testing your competency then you should have access to the internet just like you would in a job. If they are testing your memory then they should just use a lockdown browser or something.

You’re on different instances. It’s probably something to do with that.

Ah yes, the gender fluid.

Are you really their friend if they don’t see opening your messages as a game of psychological russian roulette?

I honestly didn’t know the emojis were gendered until now.

Of course they have agenda. Thay aren’t called “The League of Nonbinary Voters”.

Fun fact, those refrigerents can be (and are required to be) reclaimed and sold to recyclers. Old refrigerants that can no longer be legaly produced are actually worth an absurd amount of money when reclaimed because they can still be used but because they can’t legally be manufactured or imported the only source for them is stuff reclaimed out of other systems. Companies will pay absurd amounts of money to not have to refit their refrigeration systems to work with new refrigerants.

So if you have an old appliance still full of something like R-12 or R-22 then you have a gold mine to someone with the right equipment and certifications.

When people talk about “christians” they always fail to realize that there are hundreds of different denominations. Some are going to be psycho snake swingers or ultra regressive loons. Others are just regular people who believe in god. People always focus on the crazies because the crazies are the ones standing around screeching.

But there are plenty of denominations that are left leaning as fuck because, guess what, Jesus as described in the bible was a socialist hippy who hung out with sex workers, leppers, and other social outcasts. For example the church I always went to was pro same sex marriage as far back as 2005, so long before it was legal in most states (I just don’t remember it comming up before that).

So some ultra regressives (like the person who made those comics) are anti-education because they’re against anything that doesn’t promote their worldview. But I’d say the vast majority of christians aren’t like that at all.

My type.

I think you a word.

Seriously. I bought some dirt cheap full grain leather biker boots 3 years ago; I have given them exactly 0 care, abused the snot our of them daily, and they are still holding up strong. These weren’t even boots meant for working and they still survived trudging through the various slops of all 4 minnesotan seasons for 3 years.

As long as you are buying actual leather and not “genuine leather” then whatever you buy should easily last several years even if not cared for. Well cared for leather goods can last decades.

Here in MN we even get several Springs. I think we got 5 this year.

Hit a man with a fish and maybe he’ll leave you alone.

Yes.

Actually human meat is lacking in key nutrients because it has already used up the nutrients that the human body burns through quickly.

That would be awesome. Maytch you with someone on all the same watchlists.

Fir is used in the US (most commonly in the pacific northwest), it’s just typically used for outdoor construction because it doesn’t warp as easily and holds up far better outdoors than pine. So you will frequently see it used as decking, fences, or siding (although wood siding is getting pretty uncommon).

Fir is also sometimes used for framing like pine is but pine is usually cheaper. The only advantage fir has over pine for framing is that it tends to be a bit stronger. But there are very few places where you need that extra material strength and can’t just use slightly more reinforced pine construction to acheive the same result.

I can’t speak for everyone but I’ve spent my entire life masking my depression so I’ve gotten pretty good at masking in general. It’s just practice.

Your recorded voice actually sounds really similar to mine and I think it sounds fine. I think the main issue is probably just that you could have a better mic setup. A good sound setup makes a world of difference over even a decent one. Like I said, your voice isn’t bad at all but there’s a reason pros spend all sorts of money on expensive setups.

If your voice is something you’re uncomfortable with you can also train it on your own. Even people with naturally amazing voices often do vocal exercises of some sort.

Hey, save some representation for us ace folks. Not every show/movie needs to have the main character smashing pissers with someone. Let close queer platonic friends just be what they are.
