No one seriously thinks OF is a viable career path do they? Sex work has never been a career thing, at best you get a couple years of good earning and then you get forgotten. At worst, you get a pittance and mental health issues.

Tech has worked out for lots of people, just because some are laid off every so often, doesn't mean the rest aren't doing really well.

Oh, okay, might just risk it then. Paints terrible, but if its just going to be a small bit of sanding, or cleanup should be okay

Do you know how badthe damage to the wood will be? Is it like a small hole I can drill out and patch?

Ah, bummer. They are on the weatherboards, so might have to go. Shame, was happy to leave them be otherwise

Do they damage the wood they are attached to?

I dunno, maybe its time for Dropbox to just slowly decline and eventually exit? I don't see what they could possibly pivot into that isnt already covered by Google, Microsoft, Proton, etc. They had years of first mover advantage they could have pivoted off, but thats long behind them.

That said, if thats their plan, then the C suite needs to have their pay cut to the bone as well. CEOs get the big bucks because they make the big decisions to grow the company. If they arent growing, they should be the first cut.

Anyone had to deal with mud daubers or paper wasps? I have both creating a nest on my house.

Everything I've read suggests they are nonviolent, so my current plan was to leave them be, and then knock off the nests next winter. Its gonna be a zero tolerance policy, if I get bitten once, both are gone.

Am I gonna regret it?

You are describing pickle, but it does come with some serious risks, especially if the file can be modified by a third party.

I'd suggest using protobuf or similar instead, but its a bit more work.

Tangentially related, but when I switched my cat from commercial cat food to a raw chicken (w/ supplements) diet, her poops went from very bulky once a day, to shrivelled poops every-other day.

The amount of water in the chicken, and the lack of bulking ingredients made a huge difference.

Opening a new account should be relatively quick, even if you don't get your card. So create a new account, and transfer most of your money into it. Buy the item with your current card.

Fwiw, even without 3d secure, eBay is pretty safe to use, they are a huge corporation, and they know how to safely do transactions.

Might be a good idea to state your country. AFAIK, PayPal has no fees at all in my country, I assumed it was the same everywhere.

Can you get another bank account and card with no overdraft, and keep its balance near zero when not using it? When you buy, transfer the amount to the card and use it in whatever sketchy site you like. As long as its zero balance the rest of the time its relatively safe.

 

Hi All. I have been watching a lot of House lately, and just started "Extrodinary Attorney Woo". I am curious to know what you all think of their portrails of Autism. Is it pandering? Representation? Romantisation?

Also see "The Good Doctor", "Atypical", "Love on the spectrum" etc.

Cutting Garolite (G10) (programming.dev)
submitted 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

I posted here a while back when my glass bed failed. One of the suggestions was to replace with Garolite or G10. My sheet finally arrived and i set about cutting it down to size.

...

Within 4cm, my basically unused jigsaw blade was worn flat, and by the end of the first cut (20cm), there is basically no more teeth.

For the second side, I tried using a multitool cutter, and within a few millimeters it was visibly blunt (plastic and metal tools). Finished it off with a standard wood hand saw, which seemed to go better.

So warning to anyone considering garolite, dont use power tools, it will fuck them up.

I have a moderately long HDMI cable running to a screen that has worked for quite a while. Recently the screen lost its connection. I replaced the cable with the exact same model of HDMI cable, and its all good. The cables arent frequently inserted or removed, and they are otherwise in good condition. I have no idea how or why this could happen. Any ideas?
