That’s why I feel old. I don’t want case windows, or RGB. It’s all about the framerate and the score.

I usually don’t keep boxes past the retail return window.

However, I am keeping the box for my ultrawide monitor until such time that I no longer have said ultrawide.

Even home warranties won’t defray much cost, or often have combined limits for annual reimbursement that are lower than you would imagine.

trickled can help, but it can hit some issues when you get processes that fork other processes. Definitely test your use cases thoroughly - if you find it’s not catching a forked process then just post here with more details. There may just be a configuration change needed in trickled.conf to catch your scenario.

There’s a big chunk of sites that have WP running but are mostly just static content, confusingly. If you update the content once a month and disable all comments, maybe another tool could fit better there. ¯\(ツ)

Sometimes those positions are meant for promoting internal candidates, who obviously sat in, conducting the same interviews in the past. So the difficulty is dialed up to “I am Death incarnate!” levels and they then have scoring data to support their selection of the internal candidate. At a friend’s workplace, they’d opened up a 2-3yr exp position to convert a great intern, and had some great 10+yr exp people apply. My friend said that was a little awkward. Even if Mark Russinovich or Linus Torvalds applied for that job, they still had no chance at getting it. I joked that I might put a resume in his manager’s pile for the creator of the tech stack they were interviewing for, just to hear how that reaction was.

That’s probably not representing even… 5% of these gauntlets, but it might make you feel better. Sometimes, it’s the hiring manager fulfilling the letter but not the spirit of some process, but it means they are frustratingly hard on candidates in the process.

And perhaps, ultimately, you have dodged some bullets.

I am in a similar position. I used to post or engage in meaningful discussions on reddit almost every day. I was already reading reddit prior to the digg exodus, but I truly jumped to reddit when digg v4 landed. I never went back to digg to participate.

Oh well. I’ll be on instances here I guess.

All of these and then some.

A small part is that I’m supporting the underdog.

It’s not created by a company that sells ads.

That’s pretty impressive! I hope they can keep up the momentum at Asahi.
