Wouldn't this be similar to what dogfish head did with the beer Midus Touch?

I'm more curious why both names have piss in them.

I wish my kid enjoyed some of the things I liked. Sadly this generation has spoiled him and seeing something that old is weird to him. Hoping when he gets a little older he can understand that just because it's old looking doesn't mean it's bad.

As someone who has used a Samsung for the last 10 years, it was shocking to see this when I purchased and setup 2 pixel 8a's that I got for my parents yesterday (couldnt turn down the offer for 2 free phones and cutting $100 a month off their old bill by switching to google fi). It was literally one of the things I kept looking at, and going there has to be a way to remove this, but I also didn't have much time to look into it either. Good to know so I don't have to look back into it. What a terrible UI option...

At least someone's outpacing inflation.

Did something happen to the game that made it broken? I played this for the first few months when it dropped with about 3 other friends, and we never had those issues then. We would get invaded maybe 20% of the time, but 50% we actually would win, so it was fun.

I am not ready to play it due to life stuff, but I absolutely have to because I know my friends will be playing it day 1 just like before, and if I didn't join them I would have missed out on some of the best online gaming I've had in probably 10 years.

Take it one step further, create the new one and turn on forwarding, and just have it forwarded to your primary so you still only need to monitor 1 account. Although I feel like anyone doing this will probably forget it was forwarded and just reply using the NSFW email...

It was always my dream to go to E3 back in the 2000's. I don't care if it would have been terrible. That period was so special, and I miss the days when events like this told the story of what's to come in the next year and everyone tried so hard to put out the best trailer. I think that's why I was so sad when it started to crumble, and I realized it's never going to happen for me. My only backup now is to somehow go to Tokyo Game Show.

I'll admit I use an app to keep me from going idle, but I also was forced to come back 3 days a week and I bust my ass when I am there plus the mornings I work from home and only use it to sit back for a few extra hours in the afternoons when nothing else is pending. Also if anyone reaches out I do answer and hop on to fix or look at issues.

I wish I had a job that had such little work that I could just do whatever most days.

Yup, we were Avaya. Once Covid started, we looked into finally getting WFM and other features like this because we were a place that directly increased call volume due to covid but were unable to keep up with the amount of concurrent calls. We wanted to use the call back feature to help the agents who were overwhelmed and wouldn't be able to get a large increase in help anytime soon. Especially since we knew these levels would only be temporary as well. In the end, it was not approved.

As someone who is also a phone system admin, if you had an older system, that feature was a pretty expensive feature to add on. We never purchased it because to buy what was needed to do it would've costed a ton. We did recently switch to a cloud pbx a few months ago and the one advantage I've seen is most of the high end features seem to be more readily available and cheaper when bundled with their packages so we finally got a lot of these options. RIP are the days of on prem systems.

I guess my point is I would imagine a lot of places still use older systems possibly and will wait as long as possible before upgrading and probably do not have the call back feature.
