    This Death on the Nile poster has front runners like Armie Hammer, Gal Gadot and Letitia Wright front and center.

    yeah unfortunately it was made a couple three years ago and there have been developments

    I'm still gonna see it. I like Agatha Christie and Kenneth Branangh and the rest of the cast is cool. If someone really wants to take that as an endorsement of eating unvaxxed Palestinian babies, I can't stop them

    exploring net carbs, I encounter reading articles about food and they're like "look how much selenium it has"

    bitch i do not give a fuck about zinc or vitamin B6, just fucking come up with calories/gram or some kind of derived satiation measurement ("this will make you feel full because of fiber / water")

    nobody ever got fucked because they had enough zinc!

    thanks for all the feedback friends. i don't think this is some crucially important career-defining move. my boss is extremely open-door and i think i could eventually change courses here if i wanted (and of course whenever i change jobs.) but we're gaining new customers and our team is meant to be growing so i think this head counting is really important to say- as we grow, how many of our SREs are available to actually be assigned to customers (vs seconded to internal development and product stuff). so for the next however many months it's p important and i think will at least short term have a big impact on my daily job stuff.

    I assume you have business analysts or something to help you create user stories but I genuinely love being able to talk shop with the users directly because my users are sophisticated accountants and I speak that language

    I hereby define a staycation as time off work where you may go somewhere but you still sleep in your own bed at night. Once you book a hotel or something it ceases to be a staycation.

    And you are objectively correct, as one always can be with language

    It really bugged me early Pandemic with all the "here are staycation ideas!" articles that basically implied that if your holidays weren't abroad then you weren't shit and isn't it awful that you might have to go to the Lake District or Cornwall like somebody who can't afford a proper holiday

    So, removing, reinstalling and reconfiguring Samba didn't do anything.

    So, here's where I'm confused about this whole thing.

    My Pi is on the network. I'm using remote desktop to access it. It responds to ping. If I put //raspberrypi into Explorer, I get a 404 error. The Pi does not show up in the Network folder in Windows. I do not understand. Does anyone with Linux/Pi experience have any idea why it wouldn't be accessible from Windows Explorer, but Remote Desktop works, ping works, Plex works, everything works except that one thing?

    my liaison at the customer end is- very variable, in terms of sophistication. sometimes it's just a general 'tech guy' who's meant to handle basically every technical need. this guy is usually stretched thin and overworked. sometimes it's a 'systems administrator' who handles user management and all, but doesn't really have networking expertise. and sometimes it's a networking guy which is best case for me, because that's the data that's most important to my job (making sure our product is effective inside their network and also visible and reachable beyond their configuration and firewalling)

    at my company of 1000 people which is growing, my job description has changed like 3 times in the past year; I don't know if that's normal but yeah, team structure/job descriptions are probably pretty fluid depending on the rate of change of the size of the workforce/number of customers

    yeah I'm not super au fait with her crimes and am not particularly bothered about it. The most visible thing to me is that there was a scene in Wonder Woman '84 involving the character protecting Middle Eastern kids that were being menaced that was kind of ahistorical regarding who was doing the menacing and may have been an ill-advised choice but holy shit I find it impossible to care

    Honk Finally got sick of not having desk drawers to hide junk in, so I'm looking at Ikea stuff. Was also pondering the orb getting a new desk top as well. Product page says it can be delivered home.

    Checkout page says "fuck you, no home delivery". *shrug*

    Lmao

    We ended up ordering a pick-up-at-store in Borlänge in my sister's name, because she was going through the city during Saturday on the way back to Stockholm. So she picked it up for us.

    But that's a very odd workaround for them to not just be able to send a package.

    Hope you find some way to get it.

    It's weird, really. How are they so bad at delivering stuff?

    Product page: "Home delivery, yay!"

    Checkout page: "Fuck off, you can't use either of these three delivery options."

    i found a number of things online criticizing gal gadot- that her statement during the latest israeli-gaza flareup was equivocating, that it was wrong and insulting to use the word 'neighbors' because it trivialized the occupation of palestinians and also demeaned their identity by refusing to explicitly name them, etc

    however you feel about all of that, i found many tweets that just said 'let's not forget that this woman served in the idf' which is like, lol. peak twitter that someone is a shitty person to be canceled for not draft dodging at 18 years old

    Ugh, okay, that's on me

    But what I don't get is

    Why after the reboot my network drive stopped working. Because it did, Windows told me it was inaccessible.

    So I suppose something I did between then and now fixed it, but I managed to make it much worse all on my own. >.>
