So, so American!

Well, I went through a recruitment process for a Ponzi scheme company. It was wild, but the first filter was an interview by some “hot” woman (sorry, I was like 21) so, I guess I was nervous and passed to the next part of the recruitment process. This third part (the first was only a couple of documents) was frankly nauseous for my kind of education, in this phase, a proper brainwash about how unions, worker rights and health insurance are just obstacles between us and real success in life and some other nonsense, happened to a group of applicants clearly infiltrated. At that exact moment I wanted to go home, but somehow I was feeling unsafe surrounded by the staff (people, I guess, already in the Ponzi scheme). They wanted us to come back the next day to sell perfumes for free or to buy them perfumes to sell by ourselves or something. Of course, I didn’t come back, but it was traumatizing.

Oh, actually, /u/bobbyfiend, already mentioned the same kind of “business”, except this is Mexico. It’s not rare to find these “ideas” being deployed in several countries, like Scientology.

Well, you bet me to it, but what can I say? That’s my answer, too.

See, OP is not saying we should “just drop red meat”, and this is probably why you get that kind of reactions.

This is appreciated. As a hobbyist, I feel like my setup is hold by pins.

EDIT: I rely on Nextcloud, BTW.

Well, I love my good old Redmi Note 4 Pro (mido) running postmarketOS. Granted, it’s not a daily driver. But yeah, I’m excited enough to install Plasma OS.

both got it eventually

Yeah, this is the way.

My first was a rare CPU, but not that old. It was my first PC and was fanless, which I used to think was normal until years later. It was a VIA Cyrix III, maybe 32 MB RAM. Another interesting thing about this CPU was its overclock capabilities. I don’t know how it did survive my overclocking, since I genuinely didn’t have a clue, except that if I raised the numbers, KDE could run, but if I didn’t, well, Xfce was also cool.

Ah, yes, the WEP key passphrase era. I was a student then, and you could find me on the roof trying to get a stable signal to inject and capture data packets. Otherwise, no internet for me.

Of course they do, they also want to keep some sanity or, you know, keep breathing.

Same here. Aamof I just try watching it last year. Visually, it was cool to come back to those years, but I don’t think I finished season 1.

Did you read the season 3 in comic books? I was surprised about the following they’ve got as I was reading that Wikipedia entry.

Not a film, but a TV series? It’s called Jericho, and the synopsis in the Wikipedia reads:

Jericho is an American post-apocalyptic action drama television series, which centers on the residents of the fictional city of Jericho, Kansas, in the aftermath of a nuclear attack on 23 major cities in the contiguous United States.

But yeah, the execution is mediocre at best. Both the action and the drama are unbearably flimsy and cliche, even the argument flops as metal.

It’s not just a name. It’s policy, it’s discourse. If it was just one isolated case, Mexico would have let it go, wait for Trump to loose another election and negotiate, but this is not an isolated case, so, it makes sense to fight back and keep Trump with full hands. Also, Google are assholes.

Civilization at its peak.

I wish I could take credit, but tbh, it wasn’t intended. It’s still staying.

You must have been av very popular kid in your neighborhood.

It’s a miracle.

Mandrake was the first distro I was looking for in a small city, in the third world in the 90s. Couldn’t put my hands on those CDs, not even in the one university with some sort of computational engineering career there. I first installed Slackware.
