Elon’s?

I’ll have to ask, she worked as a COBOL contractor for multiple banks historically so it might be one of those “who you know” type things. I’ll circle back and reply here if I hear anything.

Oh I see what you’re saying.

Dang, maybe I should learn PHP…

Like, 70% or more of the web runs on PHP. That’s also not going anywhere anytime soon.

My friend’s mom gets called back for COBOL stints at major US banks all the time. I don’t know how long it’ll last, but apparently the list of people to select from and bring in is ridiculously short.

Ohhhhh, haha okay.

When did a Pennsylvania McDonald’s get involved before?

Jesus christ that’s…amazing.

I mean, make fun of me if you want, but I saw The Beekeeper in theaters. Maybe not super original but it wasn’t explicitly marketed as a remake or rehash or whatever.

No, I didn’t have a free ticket or voucher or anything, I paid full price for the ticket.

Yes, I snuck in alcohol (they don’t serve).

As a popcorn flick, I enjoyed my 1.5 hours or whatever.

Yes, I paid a stupid amount of money for popcorn, it’s a local theater not tied to any mega corps.

Oh, wow, genuine thanks because that is absolutely what I thought 😬

edit: …and was also not at all surprised…

I know you’re joking, but semi-related, I highly recommend the Kuhn Rikon peelers.

I sense ADHD (source: am ADHD)

I used to get job offers almost monthly, I haven’t had one in about six months. But I think it’s more due to the current economy and it being an election year than it drying up. I anticipate a bounce back Q1 or Q2 of next year.

The few cyber security people I’ve known…to work a good enough job that doesn’t pay shit, also means that due to the nature of their job they end up with clients that require drug testing or working at jobs that require it. Not an every case, but just something to be aware of.

I’ve been using Kagi since February and it’s been superb. I typically find what I need in the first 5 results and the ability to customize it is really nice.

It costs a little money, but honestly it’s saved me so much time over the 12,000 or so searches I’ve conducted that it’s worth it. Previously I’d sometimes have to hit up some combination of Google, Bing, DDG, Brave, etc. just to get somewhere.

Hope they’re ready to see me naked all day.

Oh, it tastes fine, I’m saying like…energy-wise and sugar-crash-wise I feel bad. Just wondering if I’m missing something.

Serious question, if I live off just that, I end up feeling like absolute garbage. That’s even with supplementing it with greens like spinach and some other veggies and vitamin supplements. What am I missing?

Like, macro-wise, I can replace meat and other things, but it doesn’t seem to hit the same?

I’ve lived in 3 and had the luxury of them being fantastic and doing more than I expected, above and beyond and never being more than like…$50/mo. Included gym and pool access and stuff.

BUT, I have a family member who lives in one where basically everybody got hit with a roof repair bill of $30k partly due to previous management embezzlement, and it ended up being taken to the courts and crap and eventually got reduced but not eliminated. I think like half the residents sold and left in the year following.

So…it can be a crapshoot but I hear more stories that are bad than good.

Christianity.
