I was not expecting a King Missile reference in 2026. Thank you.

It’s made by US Robotics, so it must be a positronic brain.

You are thinking only of the modern G rating. Go back in time a bit to find G rated movies like:

• 2001: A Space Odyssey
• Planet of the Apes
• The Secret of NIMH
• many John Wayne movies including True Grit

Just like society’s thoughts on what is generally acceptable, the mpaa rating system has changed quite a lot over the years.

It’s even worse if they’re using “criminal record” the same way the FBI has historically (arrested but not necessarily convicted on a felony charge).

I don’t have up to date numbers, but c.2016 the FBI considered ~29% of Americans to have a criminal record.

Of course they should. Where else would I get my snilk from?

The thousand injuries of Fascists I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge.

I don’t hate sales as a concept. I just dislike the sociopaths who tend to work there.

Looks like it does, at least in “private spaces”

(I’m assuming that CA means California and not Canada)

Illinois requires two party consent for recording in-person conversations at least.

Most app devs fuck it up (especially the lazy bastards that just throw everything in /opt and call it a day). I like being the dev who won’t let my code ship until everything fits nicely into FHS 3.0.

There’s dozens of us.

Hell, R was being used in colleges in 2000. Unfortunately, whether it was SPSS for the soft sciences or forcing stats work in Matlab for the engineers, professors always seemed bad at promoting the right tool for the job.

There’s no place like home

And water

We’re all secretly longing for the macbook wheel that was leaked over 15 years ago:

Fred Rogers (of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood). For my generation, he helped to shape our views on kindness and compassion for humankind. He fought for public access funding in the United States. He helped break color barriers on television. He helped us enjoy jazz.

I have not encountered another media personality who was so genuinely invested in making sure that kids had the tools they needed to deal with the emotional parts of existence. I’m tearing up again thinking about how much he did for us.

Off the top of my head, vi came out in the late 70s (though it might have been a little while later before you could start editing directly through vi)

I’m hoping this is partly a Porno for Pyros reference.

Seminal fluid.

If you’re in a union already, that is not something that can generally be asked about by management, both at hiring or during your employment. Being in a union is not the same as being in a unionized workplace.

When employees of a store/factory/etc decide to unionize, there’s a point at which a specific larger union can be chosen to represent them (AFL-CIO, IBEW, Teamsters, etc). If successful, this is what allows for collective bargaining led by a union representative.
