I had to test/fix something at work and I set up a Windows VM because it was a bug specific to Windows users. Once I was done, I thought, “Maybe I should keep this VM for something.” but I couldn’t think of anything that wasn’t a game (which probably wouldn’t work well in a VM anyway) or some super specific enterprise...
Right? Maybe a little research would help? I don’t know where she was commuting to, but picking an apartment up in Spring probably wasn’t the best choice

I’m glad you were able to recognize the quality of life imprisonment that work from home brought you and the impact it has on you and your family. With more and more ppl back in the office, WFH has shifted from a safety necessity to another ‘perk’ that companies can offer, like 401k matching or a 4/10 work schedule.
You are doing the right thing by standing your ground, you are indicating to them that they are in danger of losing talent if they do not continue to offer this competitive advantage to their employees, which should be a no-brainer with the work environment you described.
This should not preclude you from raises imo, and you are smart to be preparing your resume and looking for better opportunities. It is always smart to keep your options open. Good luck!
Haha in the rain too. I can see why they are enjoying this season so much though, looks like they are having a lot of fun and getting to see some interesting places
I've really been enjoying Unrated, Jesse Gender, and City Nerd. Unrated is a Nebula exclusive, I think, and Jesse and City Nerd already have pretty big followings elsewhere. I enjoy a variety of videos, so what else should I be watching??
Pretty much the stuff I've been posting here lol. I binged the Steven Bridges poker series as I thought it did a great job showing the life of an advantage blackjack player and how difficult it is today. Unrated is great and I like Lindsey Ellis videos as well. Jet Lag and the TLDR race are great travel competition shows.
The neo series has great visualizations, their video on the Osama raid was eye-opening, I had no idea so many things went sideways
The Federal Trade Commission on Wednesday accused Amazon of tricking millions of people into subscribing to its Amazon Prime service through manipulative tactics known as “dark patterns.”
Good on the FTC for bringing this forward. If I'm paying you ~$150/yr for a service that should be front and center for me to confirm. Not just snuck in because you have my credit card and I've bought an item from your site
I feel like most people who have been playing video games since childhood have one or more of a select few games that they go back and replay every few years....
Spyro Trilogy, since the remaster came out I think I've gone back and 100% all three games twice. Spyro was the first game I got on PS1 and the nostalgia combined with better graphics is amazing
So his explanation was "anyone who is eligible to vote by mail could receive an electronic ballot" which is a terrible reason to veto, and then the article pointed out this was incorrect anyways...

Why YSK: Spotify forces you either to pay, listen to ads or to find unofficial, potentially dangerous versions to use it. It's better to find an alternative, both for your wallet and for your peace of mind....
I think the important thing is to keep Spotify from being the only way you can stream music. While I agree you can buy discs or digital downloads, these are fundamentally different methods of consumption from streaming.
Stopping Spotify purchasing the exclusive rights to stream prevents a monopoly where, if you want to stream, you are 'forced' to use Spotify and pay/listen to ads there. Keeping artists' options open allows the most customer-friendly streaming service to win out as consumers choose which streaming service gives them the best product to listen to who they want
Not sure if this is common knowledge or not. Why YSK it’ll save you the guessing game of which side your gas tank is on when pulling up to a gas station.
Are there any Windows-exclusive programs you use?
