This is your reminder that national polling doesn't matter, and that you can win the presidency with roughly 20,000 votes

Yeah. There's always a chance that a customer could have an issue on a weekend and then I've gotta fix it. Once I was on 27 hours of conference calls over a weekend. But as I've gotten better at my job those sorts of things happen less and less.
Honestly the worst part of my job is doing my timesheets and updating weekly status, but when the weather's good I do that from my hammock with a cold beer in hand which makes it suck less.

I'm salaried so I don't have a lunch break. I work from home so I basically set my own hours as long as I can be contacted from about 10am to 3pm and go to any meetings I have scheduled.

When I need to do stupid tasks like timesheets and emails I unplug. The lack of screen space means I don't get distracted.
When I need to do hard work I dock my system and use my dual 4Ks to maximize visual bandwidth.

I bet the LGBTQ+ movement has done wonders for recruiting.
"Ve have footage of you haffink gay sex."
"Yes, I'm gay. That's my husband. The kids were finally gone for an hour so we had some fun."
"Blyat."

President Biden’s campaign spokesman said Trump’s conviction shows “no one is above the law.” “There is still only one way to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval Office: at the ballot box,”

You dodged three bullets, bro. If a woman gets turned off by asking then she's either not into you or she wants you to chase her, and both should be deal-breakers.

Carl Sagan co-wrote a paper about what we would expect to find if there had been aliens in the ancient past. Erik von Danniken took this and added a bunch of racism to create Chariots of the Gods.
Carl Sagan, to his credit, was regretful for writing the paper and sparking this ridiculousness.

I'd think it would be common sense not to be driving when you have a court appearance. I'd put on at least a collared shirt and a tie and take the call from a quiet place where there's nothing else going on.

Southern country-themed restaurant chain Cracker Barrel, with over 660 locations nationwide, has seen a significant decline in customers, losing more than 16 per cent in just four years
I wonder how much COVID contributed to that.

I heard an interview with the creator of KSP1 and it made me even sadder about the death of this game. His next plan was basically Kerbal Aeronautics Program, where you'd build progressively bigger and faster airplanes to accomplish missions. I could see it growing into a game franchise, kind of like how SimCity had a bunch of similar simulator games with different premises.
Anyways, I've gotta go rescue Jeb again.

We can't have pop-up headlights because of pedestrian safety, but you can buy a 5,000 pound vehicle that does 0-60 in three seconds and has a hood level with most people's heads because that's totally safe for pedestrians.

I've been to three local grocery chains and all of them have frozen turkey breast, but no turkeys.
I mean, it's nearly June so I understand why, but I have a hankering for turkey and need to go to an actual butcher shop.

I would like to primary him. Not because I think I'd win - I definitely wouldn't - but because I want to ask him what the fuck happened to him. Like, dude, you used to be cool.
I have an actual cold for the first time in about four years. What are some of your favorite remedies?

Greetings from the other side! I'm working on improving my Windows knowledge, and I'd like to replicate something I can do in Linux with Windows servers: Spinning up an EC2 instance and installing and configuring MySQL. I haven't been able to find any way to automate this down to one command. What I'm trying to avoid is spending a lot of time rebuilding my environment while I'm testing things out. If anybody has some batch files (I think that's what you call shell scripts here) or tips I'd appreciate it.
