I think there are many others one could point to more accurately, including Yahoo who purchased and then resold tumblr.
While Tumblr has made a lot of changes, some of which were walked back, they are still a well used and beloved site today. There are many now-dead or barely alive behemoth Internet companies that are better examples of “poster child for running a terrible Internet business” imo.
Installing a rootkit on people’s computers in 2005.
Not to downplay the shitty situation with hd2, but uh, got any examples from the last 5 to 10 years instead of pointing to something that happened nearly two decades ago?
Haha, I sleep in a hoodie and my wife is baffled by it, she’s a furnace and couldn’t possibly.
I really enjoy having that hood, feels like I’m strapping into sleep time.
Disagree! Sleeping with the windows cracked open in the winter is amazing.
They work in my town just outside a large metro area in the US.
That said, no one seems to actually use them here and are always crossing traffic at the worst times.
It’s really frustrating to watch people of every age playing chicken with cars daily.
I’m nearly at 7 with my employer and I’ve found the situation to be quite good and I see no sign yet to jump ship. There’s still good gigs out there.
I’m sure the person you are responding to had good reason to stick around 20 years. It’s possible only recently did the math not work out for them.
Yeah, I’m with you. The entitlement around media (games movies TV) is insane to me.
You do realize those are usually exclusive for only a year, right? So EGS pays them out for a year of exclusivity and then the devs are free to launch on steam and others.
The thing is, often if they don’t get that first infusion of cash from a deal with EGS (or another investor) they don’t get to complete or even launch the game at all. So it never would make it to the other markets.
I have a pair of wired ath m50x from 2008. They still work well and on the third set of pads.
Pretty sure folks are referring to streaming sites meaning like Netflix. The person you are responding to said “click and go” referring to services like YouTube and Hulu not sketchy “streaming” sites like what you are describing that require some hoops to go through to make sure.you don’t download a virus.
Uhh it’s not like the UK is actually any better in this situation if it’s true that they are sending random migrants to Rwanda
Could you pull the ladder up behind you any harder?
they almost certainly saw you
Nah, there’s not enough info to know that or even assume it. People are not perfectly aware of their surroundings or others looking at them
And then 34 tomorrow. Lol, lmao.
For me it was when his videos turned into advertisements blatant for paying the bills. He moved to CA, lost the passion for yt (which I don’t blame him, life happens) but then the videos he would make were soulless adverts in his vlog style.
He seems to be “back” now doing videos with passion and vigor. I hope he’s having fun again
Could you elaborate on which? I’ve seen a lot of sketchy reviews recently
FYI, lots of people have different grocery needs so a broad statement like “grocery trips are $N these days” is pretty meaningless without the context of your purchases or needs.
A better example might be “my grocery bills are up 50% this year with no changes to what I buy!!”
My grocery budget has changed the last few years, but from $65 average to now $85 average. That said the supplemental food I buy (occasional orders out, etc) has risen significantly more, probably upwards of +60% at times.
I don’t feel the need to defraud the government and our limited social welfare taxes. I’ll happily tell my employer white lies about family who don’t exist, but never the government.
Surprised you don’t take this sort of detail up to your skip level. Corporations are not entirely blind to issues in all cases. Actually, I bet you have raised these concerns. For all the folks nodding along, talk to your boss’ boss!! You owe it to yourself to try
Maybe try a new non work hobby in this downtime. You don’t have to be a more productive or engaged employee to find joy and excitement in life! Why can’t work be that consistent but dull backdrop that empowers/enables your the rest of your time?
Maybe a mindset shift will help. You don’t have to keep climbing that corporate ladder. Stop and smell the roses! Idk about you, but most above me on that ladder at my company seem pretty overworked and tired
