I have a window AC unit for the summer. It's the winter and early spring that are the real problems. Window or typical in-wall AC doesn't work once the outside temperature drops below a certain amount. I'd have to buy hyperheat splits if I wanted the AC to operate once it gets cold outside...

I mean, it's a sub 900 sqft house, I'm not investing 13k in an AC system. There's not really any other option for rooms. Yes, getting a different house is a big priority but I've got to pay the USDA back all the subsidy that was applied to this loan from when my parents bought it if I ever...

I have no reason to make this up. I would own a much more powerful PC if I could figure out a decent solution.

The PC room is in the hottest corner of the house because that's where the sun hits all day long. It's a 9x11 room where all my work gear and my PC stuff runs all day. It's always 80+ in there.

It's just not a good solution, small rooms with 1 window don't have enough airflow, I'd have to open the door and then I'd be cooling off the rest of the house...

I agree that the first Saw movie was very good. Found it to be a very compelling "mystery" with lots of clever twists and turns. The rest are completely unwatchable.

I have a window AC in the summer but buying an AC unit that works in the wintertime is huge expense.

This is the biggest growth in our current company. We were primarily telecom, with some networking, and now we're doing all these midsize Cisco UCS, NetApp, Nutanix installs. (We were a Simplivity partner but fuck HP. We're not even doing much Aruba anymore because fuck HP.) I'm not sure I...

PC room gets too hot, even in the winter time.

Permission? Well, I might have to clear the 320W TDP with the fire marshal. Really thinking about just getting the 3070, but the small difference in price it might just be better to underclock the 3080?

Other than the last 5 minutes of the movie does anyone give a shit about the rest of the movie? It's fucking wretched. And Full Metal Jacket is just so boring compared to the other Vietman movies, after the intro in bootcamp.

Underrated: Gremlins 2. Extremely joke-dense movie. Overrated: Requiem for a Dream. The most overproduced afterschool special ever. (Shit I already posted the second one 4 years ago.) Okay, another overrated movie is Full Metal Jacket. Goes to absolute shit after the opening in boot camp.

This happens a lot.

Spaceballs has a better plot than 7/9ths of the main Star Wars movies.

RIP. Diana Rigg was definitely on the list of all-time great TV hotties. Awesome that she got a role she could act the shit out of before her career was over. Her character even got to die before the show turned to complete shit.

I mean, it's about Sand People culture, not really Middle Eastern culture, but yeah I'm sure there's going to be a lot of hot takes just like this one.

Impossible, it didn't have Skyler or Marie in it so it was definitely better than at least half a dozen episodes.

Assuming they have basic internet, Magicjack. Not kidding. (PS: If they have background noise on Verizon, it's probably coming from the inside wiring.)

People complain about the fact that everything feels super generic, so Blizzard gives people meaningful choices and people still complain.

Did you not watch True Detective Season 1? What the fuck.

He talks with his mouth closed, like he's trying way too hard to be serious.

Great visuals indeed, but this will succeed or fail based on the actor playing Paul and I don't have a lot of faith in his acting ability from the trailer.

NHL '94 for Sega Genesis. All other answers are wrong. Argue anyway.

I was pretty happy for about 30-40 minutes every 2 weeks when I was working 90 hours a week.

This was already a piece of shit thread, this is not a derail.

My supervisor doesn't work on the same shift as me. A different "manager" (workflow managers have no direct reports, aren't really managers) assigns me new work on my shift (generally tickets that are breaching that didn't get assigned during the daytime hours) in addition to work I already...

Exactly. Working for a complete clusterfucker shitshow of a company was a net-benefit when I got paid unlimited overtime to compensate for what a clusterfuck it was, and now is a net-detriment now that I'm not, so I'm fucking out. I won't even let them counter offer this time.

Nothing works like that. A) I've met my current supervisor twice and only by accident. He's been fulltime remote the entire time I've worked here. I've been remote since November. B) My supervisor doesn't work on the same shift as me. I work nights and weekends, he works during the normal...

No that's stupid, I'm just waiting for an offer letter for this other job, it's labor day weekend so it should take a few extra days.

Nope, they stopped paying out any overtime to any hourly employees about 3 weeks into the COVID because they were going broke (supposedly, even though revenue is only down 5%.) They gave me a modest raise to offset it, but did not convert me to salary, which just makes them liable to pay me...

Once this other job gets finalized, I'll leave politely, let them cash out all the vacation time they owe me, then once that check clears I'll send a demand letter for the 5200 dollars in back overtime they owe me.

I've been taking some of the days off they still owe me from the past 2 years, but I get assigned so much work that I end up working on my days off, and I end up working 46-48 hour weeks anyway even though my boss rejects my timesheet if it's above 40 hours even if another manager assigned me...

Rogues are just not fantastic in 8.3, other than Assassin in PvP or speed clearing M+ as Outlaw.

Plenty of gyro places like this in the Greater Boston area.

Hey I know that sign!

Breaking Bad (TV Series) (3 episodes) - Ozymandias (2013) - Fifty-One (2012) - Fly (2010) He's not a bad director he just shouldn't be allowed to write Star Wars when I don't think he ever saw a Star Wars movie.

Rian could have been a good director if they had let someone who actually knew something about Star Wars write the screenplay. They should stop putting all of the power in the hands of a single person.

Alright you got me.

I have no heirs, it will all either be donated or go to the state.
