Military Says It Will ‘Continuously’ Monitor Bathrooms to Comply With Anti-Trans Order
  • I've reached a point where I refuse any longer to hold any reverence or respect for current military. Just like cops. The military cocktail worship of parades, holidays, and discounts everywhere needs to go away.

    How about discounts for teachers, or road workers, or social workers.

  • Yes Facebook is a dumpster fire, but this is always interesting if you are on there.
  • That's a 2 way street. I will say from experience that not using social media like Facebook dramatically dwindled who will reciprocate by text or email.

    Fine by me for my life, but I saw the difference as they all used it more and more and I did not.

  • What are you all using for game/library tracking, on Steamdeck?
  • I use custom categories for my games, both to categorized the style of game and also mark completed ones. You can add to multiple categories.

    I also use the hell out of Steam Notes per game, which supports markdown by the way. I use it to note things I've played elsewhere, or unique notes about setting up a game to play, custom settings, or stuff to remember if I don't come back to play for months or something.

    They generally sync between my Deck and PC too.

  • Thoughts??
  • I learned how to do a fucking LOT of statistical shit in my degree. I also learned to get REALLY good at all kinds of shit in Excel.

    Guess which helped my career on an actual practical way the most? Guess which made people seek me out at work for help with things?

    Sometimes Excel is what's available. Sometimes it's just faster to do it that way rather than code up some ridiculously overdone solution in some programming language. Having both skills is best, but don't shit on opening an excel and just fucking getting it done, whatever it is.

    If used right, it can also be a great equalizer with those less technically skilled in your workplace. You can quickly format and tune things and even layer a little bit of vba to make their lives easier without having to get into the complexity of an entire bespoke coded solution.


    Also, a reminder for those in the back. For most of us, we aren't in college to learn a specific skill so much as we are there to learn how to be taught. To prove we are capable of taking instructions and producing results as requested.

    If you never understand this, then you'll never understand later why you fail to land a high quality job.

  • Is it just me, or does crime documentaries have a biased "pro-cop" vibe to it?
  • You're being disingenuous. I think what OP is getting at might be both that cops are never in the wrong, and that the guilty is always clear.

    At this point, I'm tired of glorification of police. They get it wrong. A fucking lot.

    There's a good reason Brooklyn 99 ended. At least that had the balls to do it.

  • Our parents promised us we would feel like fools for thinking we were smarter than them as kids. When exactly does that start?
  • My narcissistic, selfish, and abusive parents abused things like "because I said so," "you'll understand when you're older," and "you'll understand when you have kids" among other things.

    I now understand. They were shitheads that never wanted to actually explain things or be held accountable for their fucking abuse. I understand that it literally took EFFORT for them to be so goddamn angry and verbally/physically abusive to us, and it takes a serious level of hate to sprinkle in the emotional neglect and somehow be okay with treating your child like that.

    I can't fathom doing half the shit they did.

  • Paradise Slaves - With Hell in his Eyes

    For those who were fans of 36 Crazyfists, this is Brock's new band. Released in May, the entire album is incredible. But I think the title track in particular goes hard lyrically, and I feel like it makes sense if you know Brock's history, especially the stories behind Left Hand Charity and Time and Trauma from 36CF.

    > Misery > You were the only friend to me > And the long hard stare > Down the barrel of despair
