At what cost?

My surplus labor value at my first job, my second job, a few jobs in between and my current job.

Georgia

Was it officer down?

I find np a worse message when taken literally. If I even have to write an email, it’s at least a little problem. yw allows for a problem you solved for somebody without suggesting that it doesn’t come at the expense of other priorities. Both will be interpreted the same way by almost everyone, of course.

You’re welcome to ask things like that of me. This is within the realm of stuff I will gladly do for you.

“Locally made” makes it sounds like they’re bringing them home from the farmer’s market in a canvas bag.

I think there’s a lot of reflexive red/blue thinking involved. If your state’s red, your state laws are written by team red, but the national laws by red and blue, going back and forth every few years. Wouldn’t you want all red laws? If it’s just your state, that’s what you get, so you win! Blue followed the same thought process, of course. Swing states have relatively low numbers because they’d just trade purple for purple. The numbers not taking a huge dip in the states that would be enclaves if they went through with this indicates that team Yes didn’t think through the decision.

Are mutated earworms normal? Like you hear a song in your head but it significantly differs from the real song. I’m not talking about misheard lyrics – it’s like at one point I forgot all of the song but a fragment and my brain inartfully filled in the missing parts and then hit save on the resulting mess, which became part of the permanent collection and can’t be excised by hearing the original song.

Yeah, I’m not running goatse linux.

Not getting what the kids are saying/wearing/doing is inevitable. Becoming your [general, not aimed at anyone here and apologies if your parents were cool] dorky-ass parents by complaining about it and pretending your generation was better is a choice.

It would take constraints to get me to work at all. I spent 8 months unemployed, and not the stressed kind of unemployed; I was living off of my savings and only interviewing every 3 weeks or so. At no point did I feel any desire to work in any sense of the word. Work isn’t the result of some innate drive nor a source of self-worth for me; it’s just how I provide for me and future me. Once I hit retirement age or when we get to FALGSC, that’s the end of my relationship with work.

It seems like a company that would require employee-purchased headsets would already require employee-purchased laptops. Do you know of any? Honest question; I don’t, but my bubble is pretty small.

It’s a square root of negative one. A sneaky way to get two answers with one question.

The number of times I walked out of the shower without using soap plus i times the number of times I soaped at least twice to avoid that scenario.

At least for DTLA, it seems like too much of a drop to just be that. There are some office buildings, sure, but when I lived there pre-pandemic, you could take a walk and only see a small number of people dressed like they were on lunch break from an office job. Plus, LA having multiple office-zone places, DTLA might actually have a lot of people who were commuting to Culver City and are now working from home.

Is there a baseline of cell phone usage in general? Are more people using wifi instead of connecting to the towers?

Dug further and found that their source has since updated their methodology and LA is now at 83%, which seems a lot more realistic than 65%. Also, they count daily unique devices, so the former Downey-DTLA commuter who now works at home from Downey contributes to LA’s drop, while the former DTLA-Culver City commuter who now works at home from DTLA doesn’t change anything.

When it’s above 100, people who have options for something lower will generally go for them. Similarly for under 0. OK, so as PancakeLegend@mander.xyz pointed out, such sensitivities might be specific to US culture, but theoretically, how much would we have to expand the 0-100 Fahrenheit range so that 0 is too cold for pretty much everyone and 100 is too hot for pretty much everyone? 0 goes to -10, 100 to 140? A new-Fahrenheit degree would still be more precise than a Celsius degree.

I feel like I did, too. Sad thing is how much two meetings with aggravating people on a Friday last workday of the week can wipe out what had been a pretty nice week. I beat Super Mario Wonder! I dipped my toes in the Pacific! But Mr. Just-start-building-without-any-specs still has my BP up.

Car-free Manhattan is just the 78% of households without cars winning out over the 22% with and the daily invaders from out of town. Those percentages are way beyond pro-weed vs. anti-weed and weed has won in a lot of places even without overthrowing capitalism. It’s long overdue there and even the late mayor Koch considered it before I was born.
