For a minute I thought you meant seasonal shapes, like mixing boxes of Paw Patrol mac with Thanksgiving turkey-shaped pasta.

I was all over that until the raisins. Disgustayn!

I’ve never had a download tagged as SuccessfulCrab that wasn’t malware. I don’t know enough about them to know if that’s their fault or the indexers’.

Same here. I wasn’t great before, but I’m actually super fast at anything below 45 now.

Quick mafs

Something I realized while reading this is that I can’t think of any quotes from it. Besides “Bazinga”, but that was designed to be intentionally annoying and then was used to mock the show.

I can think of references to basically every other sitcom I’ve seen, and I can vaguely remember some scenes from BBT, but nothing quotable. My spouse liked it, so I’ve seen every episode at least once, but it was honestly pretty forgettable.

My verdict was originally “not bad”. But maybe being forgettable was it’s best quality.

I promised a number of hours under any sane estimate and delivered four days over the estimate. Success.

I figured they were talking about 1 Man 1 Jar. The fact that there were more interpretations I forgot about is very disheartening.

Managers subscribe to rigid, family-like hierarchies. They view their manager as superior, like their father or mother. Therefore they view you as a subordinate child. Which means they don’t feel like they are doing their job unless they treat you like a child. Babysitting is tough over Teams and Skype.

On the flip side, I ordered something on eBay specifically to avoid Amazon and I still got a package from Amazon. Some people are basically just using an automated eBay account as a front for Amazon and pocketing the tiny margins.

I have the same question except it’s a Pi B+ from 2014. It doesn’t seem powerful enough for most Pi recommendations I see online.

Yeah, I gotta admit I definitely assumed most of those things would be true. I knew it could be messy, but I didn’t realize it was such a loosely bound garbage heap.

What do you do with the used oil? When I was a kid my family would dump it in big barrels, then we’d bury them once they got full. Obviously not something I want to do now. But I’ve asked the oil change places around here and they charge a fee to take the used oil.

I shed a tear and sing In the Arms of an Angel by Heather McLachlan every time I do this. Even for a single noodle.

It’s definitely not required, but ever since we got one I’ve grown to like it. If you have a ceramic sink it helps prevent scratches. It also helps dishes stay put, like pot lids that normally slide around. Most of all I like it when I put a strainer down. I know the strained liquid won’t touch the sink and flow back into the food, even if the risk was low before.

Ripped off the brand-ad, some would say.

I wish! It’s more of a loose collection of random business softwares in various states of abandonment. D365 CE is a platform for Sales teams to organize and track leads, quotes, contracts, etc. D365 BC is an ERP platform born out of the ashes of NAV, the core of which Microsoft bought decades ago. D365 F&O, D365 S&M, and others are various flavors of AX, another ERP platform Microsoft bought over a decade ago. They are direct competitors to D365 BC for some reason. None of these softwares can communicate directly with each other, and none allow direct access to the Azure SQL. Occasionally Microsoft will throw a bone towards integration stuff like DualWrite or Synapse or Fabric, but they can never seem to commit and eventually abandon those too.

I would actually be much happier if it was just crummy databases instead of an archipelago of rotting digital islands.

Against every developer’s advice, management has moved our entire stack to Microsoft Dynamics 365. It took over a year of prep, millions in ISV consulting charges, and it performs like trash. Now management is constantly complaining about outages, Microsoft nickles and dimes us for tens of thousands more than the estimates, and they are constantly jerking us around to half-baked tech by removing support for anything that actually works. “Want data out of F&O? We’re killing everything except Synapse Link. You spent months migrating yet it drops data? That’s not surprising since we fired everyone working on it. You should be on Fabric! No, that’s not finished either, but we need to test it on someone!”

I’m very bitter.

I have a couple patches of apple mint in my yard, which doesn’t seem to spread much. It legitimately does smell amazing while I’m mowing and has always grown back by the next time I mow.
