Standing by your bed while you’re asleep and berating you isn’t manipulative?
Nah, to needs to leave, now. No sense hanging around to see what this escalates to. Not worth putting in the effort for someone who’s demonstrated they need to grow up.
Her standing by your bed and behaving like that is childish and she’s demonstrating manipulative behaviour.
The problem with the new Bond is it takes itself too seriously.
The old ones were tongue-in-cheek, with a wink and a nod.
Archer is more of a successor to the original Bond than the Craig stuff.
Have you seen him in the TV show “The Saint”? It’s basically him as Bond before Bond existed.
Except - it’s impossible to know anything about how a company actually functions internally.
I saw this having worked with dozens of companies as a contractor. What they seem like from the outside is never what they’re actually like.
My response to this stupid question is “I don’t know, why should I want to work for this company?”
But I’ve also walked out of interviews when they started that STAR nonsense - it’s insulting and a waste of my time. How would they feel if I handed them 3 sheets of paper with answers to all the STAR questions?
The mall was dying by the 80’s, there was a sharp decline by then (I recall seeing numerous malls going vacant in the 90’s, around the country).
The things that drove mall popularity (especially things like large, enclosed, air-conditioned space), were no longer novel. Most cars were air-conditioned by then.
I’m sure there are many other factors, like the growth of free-standing single-vendor buildings (so construction and management costs must’ve changed).
Amazon really had nothing to do with it.
And anything going from Apple to another Apple won’t be via RCS.
Gotta use /s to ensure it’s understood.
Text lacks tone.
Plus it’s still tied to a phone number.
Why do I need another shitty messaging app that’s tied to my phone number, in the 21st century, when I’ve had proper hardware-independent network-based, cross-platform, messaging apps on my phone since 2009?
Doesn’t look like it works with other calendar systems yet?
Currently, Notion Calendar integrates and syncs with Google Calendar accounts. Adding support for other calendar providers such as Outlook and iCloud is on our roadmap.
Also it only works with a Notion account? It gives me no other options - just “Login to your Notion account”.
I wouldn’t call Thunderbird “decent”, I’d call it nominally functional.
Performance is terrible, lots of lags, etc. And this on a fairly new, recently rebuilt, 16gb Windows LTSC laptop (so no bloat).
And then there’s the UI stuff - monochromatic so hard to tell where one window/tab starts/ends, etc.
Laugh tracks were extensively used long before the Fran Drescher thing though?
Nearly every show I watched from the 60’s to the early 80’s used them. It was noticeable when there wasn’t a laugh track.
I’ve worked for numerous enterprises since the 90’s.
None of them have been this idiotic. All of them implemented secure channels. Remember SecurID cards for dial up connections?
Guess she’d like to see all her “unencrypted” chats published for the world to see…
Look into your municipality’s recycling process, see how it’s done, what the inputs are, what the total energy use is, etc, etc.
I’d bet a year’s salary it’s far less effective (if at all) than most people think.
“Recycle” was/is a marketing grift developed by the oil industry in the 70’s. It largely isn’t effective.
As someone else mentioned, aluminum (and steel) are very recyclable, and are already extensively recycled in manufacturing (don’t forget that reusing scrap within a factory is considered recycling).
Everything else largely isn’t, yet. Glass is very recyclable, but the transport costs are exorbitant, so I suspect it’s a negative for things like drink bottles, while the energy costs on most plastic recycling makes it not yet viable, from what I’ve read.
Someday, just not today.
If the 3 R’s, Reduce is the one that truly makes a difference.
There were handheld electronic card game players in the 80’s.
You’d be surprised how many phone calls took place at that time.
Mayne talking about a show, or chatting someone up, etc. You were bored, so a phone was great.
Thanks for the reminder of some great movies. Added them to my “need to get” list.
