Federal jobs used to be nice. Stable solid employment for the rest of your life. Nothing glamorous but you wouldn't have to worry while the market goes up and down.

And then last year that completely changed in a bad way

Surprisingly this is the safest time to be in porn. OnlyFans and others allow sex workers to set their own prices and control what they will and won't do.

Jesus what a cheapass criminal. How much was that? Couple of bucks of copper?

Fine should be 1000x what he would have made off of it.

Weirdly a non article, thought he'd give his own story.

Anyone who has worked a corporate gig is completely unsurprised though. Squeaky wheels and all.

Gotta love the artificial obsolescence here. Kindles require basically nothing to run. They don't need heavy processors or ram. EBook formats haven't changed. Its purely "its time you spend more money with us".

Yeah regulations is why. Couldn't possibly be because they're out of money

Hey Jerkface :)

Completely get where you're coming from. I'll admit I like the occasional saucy spicy comic. I'd suggest we start with the allow tagged NSFW, and then see what happens. If it gets to be too much a new community could be spun off.

I moderate a few, and I've seen people too eagerly try to spin off new communities like reddit, but here it takes a long time for any traction to happen. So while I'm for more communities, spinoffs should be once there is a critical mass, like a ton of NSFW comics.

That's not so long! Passover was just a week ago.... Oh... Oh jesus

Hanselman pointed to a Microsoft blog post noting that, starting in October, the company began requiring "mandatory account verification for all partners in the Windows Hardware Program," which also covers certifying software drivers. Last month, the company updated the post to say: "Accounts that did not successfully complete account verification and received a Rejected verification status have been suspended from the Windows Hardware Program, and submissions from these accounts are no longer permitted."

So they didn't hand over their blood and urine samples to Microsoft so they don't get to be developers anymore

 

Please please please don't.

Same as title, looking for the essential hi-vis gear. I don't plan on riding at night but sometimes you're out a bit too late.

 

If you want to try it 1.2 on Experimental

Note that Experimental means NOT STABLE, expect bugs and issues. If you don't like that, stay on the standard stable branch.

Before Switching, BACK UP YOUR SAVES. Saves are incompatible with previous versions so you will not be able to go back, and additionally as with any unstable product it can corrupt your saves.

New Features in 1.2 (Spoilers for Video)

  • Farm Toilets - Spawnable toilets which act as respawn points!
  • Vehicle pathing - Vehicles can now be pathed similar to how trains have tracks, using splines Fluid Trucks & Stations
  • WEATHER - Rain, Window, and Strong Winds! Weather was previously removed due to engine issues, but it's back!
  • NODE RANDOMIZATION - New game modes featuring randomization of name nodes, changing required amounts for space elevators, etc.
  • Daisy Chaining power from one factory to the next
  • Zoop Signs
  • New photo mode features including Selfie mode

I was annoyed enough to write all of this up. I used to go regularly, and the rewards program was genuinely a good deal, and made it worth going to Starbucks. Now, even if I set aside all of the horrible things they're doing, I wanted to show just what an absolute shit program this is, and why there is absolutely no use in trying to "gain starbucks status".
