My SO was let go 2 weeks before Christmas by the other available ISP (along with hundreds of other higher-tier techs) after working there for nearly 10 years. Their excuse was they needed to “trim the excess”, which they did: after the holidays they hired a bunch of contracted third party techs for minimum wage. We…

Any advice for those of us stuck with draconian age modems that AT&T forces us to rent from them? $7.99+ fee per month and they say the only way we can swap out modems is to bridge it to another (or something along those lines).
My parents are in their mid-60s and are rather healthy and reasonable individuals: they don’t watch Fox News, listen to the likes of Rush Limbaugh, or fall into the tinfoil hat conspiracies. They seem to be aware of the severity of the situation.
My [gullible] asthmatic coworker was describing this nonsense to me this morning. She came to the conclusion that a sauna would have a similar effect.
One of my largest companies has been really pushing umbrella policies lately. Their biggest source for umbrella losses lately? Cyber liability on social media: libel, defamation, bullying, etc. People think they can say what they want without consequence and that’s just not true.
No motorcycle or personal motorized vehicle? That should round it out a bit. ;)
I’m sure he blamed the SUV’s inability on him getting stuck as well. Common sense was not with him in that moment. Haha.
My state return will cover the amount we owed on our federal return... almost to the same dollar amount. That’s with 0 withholding allowances and paying extra into our federal income tax off of each check. Ugh.
Thank you for posting this. I grew up in a household that used cast iron and learned the simple & traditional method of soap-free rinse, scrub, and season. Soap was only used in moderation if something was really stuck on.
I could see this being useful for competent drivers in my area that have to drive through the snow ice storms and freezing rain that coat the roads a few times a year. Snow tires are overkill and not necessary compared to proper know-how and a little practice.
Really surprised that my state started offering this early on. I got my Real ID back in 2017.
“Replace your toaster or toaster oven” —> THIS!
Oops. Not available on my decrepit Moto X4.
My mother’s computer has been affected by this bug as well. I found the following to work in the meantime:
I just took a break from Stardew Valley to focus on finishing up a book series. I may have to delay that last book a little longer after this.
Yes. One of our other neighbors was able to use a ladder and climb the remaining 15+ feet to reach it. I got a text from the owner today: the cat is doing great and has no urge to explore the outdoors again.
Other than that one big spend (yeah... that one), I did pretty good. It’s the last Friday of the month and I still have most of last Friday’s cash on me.
We jokingly refer to them as “Ozark Tumbleweeds”. They can be seen blowing across the landscape, stuck in tree limbs, or drowning in bodies of water.
Perhaps try out something like a diaper genie? /shrug
