Mine is the most original ever: 😐
[First Name][Last Name] at Gmail and Yahoo.
Got the yahoo when they first started offering them, and the Gmail when it was invite only.
Yahoo for 90% of my online correspondence. Gmail for mostly professional / work related stuff.
Mechanical Engineer (union) with 20 years experience, slightly underpaid at $76.33/hr in (just north of the) Seattle area.
Hit up local government auctions. Sometimes they sell 2-4 computers in a lot, sometimes they sell 157. I got 4 Lenovo mini computers for $34 each in an auction a while back. They only needed hard drives.
90% of my meetings are Teams / WebEx. I just get other computer work done on the other screen while I listen to the meeting because there’s only 5-10 minutes of the 1 hour meeting that pertains to me.
Sort emails. Respond to emails. Get CAD modeling done. Place orders for stuff.
Love getting some down time to get stuff done.
Gimme da Sun!!!
If this were ULPT, I would recommend the annoyatron. Hide it well and see how long it takes to break him. https://annoyatron.us/
But it is not, so I think others would have better solutions.
American here, currently sitting in the AFT cafeteria of a Norwegian cruise ship just off the coast of France. Saved for years to go on this once in a lifetime cruise.
I grew up on the edge of poor. Had basics and never went hungry, but our summer vacations were camping because it was cheap. Never went to Disneyland until I was in the Army and could afford it myself.
While I agree that going abroad is definitely eye opening, even traveling to other states increases your open-mindedness. I joined the Army and was stationed in Alabama, Georgia, Alaska and Washington. Going back home and reuniting with friends who never left the state or even left the general area was kind of shocking. Never being exposed to an even slightly different environment really showed in their attitude.
While I was in the Army, I was sent to Missouri and a couple of other states I can’t remember right now for a month or so for training or field problems, and short trips show how even though I was still in the same country, there were definitely societal, geographical and political differences in each place.
Expanding that to traveling other countries was also eye opening. The Army sent me to Thailand for a month. My current job sent me to Australia and S. Korea and a couple of other states for 2-3 weeks at a time. I liked hitting the tourist spots, but I really enjoyed just watching people wherever I am. Once you see that (for the most part) people are people, you start to get that just because someone’s idea is different than yours, doesn’t mean it’s wrong, it’s just different.
Audiograbber with the LAME codec. Actually still have it on my computer. I still buy the random CD now and again and rip it to my media server, and then never touch it again.
And now I need to make a 3D printed mold in a comfortable shape that can be used to easily cast concrete around a lighter.
Maybe a simple cylinder, with the lighter off center so it can easily be flicked?
Maybe I’ll squish some play-doh around one and scan it and use that.
Whatever, it just needs to be too big to “accidentally” end up in someone’s pocket.
Huh, you know maybe knowing the origin of the joke affects how I determine whether it’s derogatory or not?
I did not think about that, but looking back, seems like an easy pitfall.
Good point.
Honesty, I think it would be fairly easy to figure out.
If it is derogatory - homophobe.
If it points out an idiosyncracy, and makes fun of it - queer, or at least not homophobe.
In my experience, bgoted people make jokes that insult and/or demean those people they hate. It is not done primarily to be funny, but to hurt and demean. Making it funny just helps spread it around.
Are we not doing “phrasing” anymore?

There are adjustable for just about every aspect of your interaction with it.
All (well, the two or 3 models we have at work) of the enMotion dispensers have that option. It’s just a switch inside to leave one out or not.
I bought a set of keys for the most common ones, and when I run across paper towel dispensers that spit out the shortest length of paper with the longest delay, I pop them open and flip the switches to give the longest length of paper and shortest delay. And fix jams and misfeeds as well if I run across them.
I learned my lesson about ‘lifetime’ updates with a Tom Tom GPS unit, from the late '90s, maybe early 2000s. After about 4 or 5 years I couldn’t install the latest map updates, so I contacted CS. They said, “Oh yeah, lifetime means the time of the expected life of the unit, which is 4.5 years. We don’t support that model anymore. Any other questions?”
I apologize for not being clear.
[First Name ][Last Name] meant if my name was John Smith, my email would be [email protected]. Actually having it be like what you thought would be awesome though!
