GroundedGator

I'm an American with some outdated experience from about 25 years ago.

I loved Germany and would love to return. I've even thought about migrating there, though I know this would not be simple.

I was there for about 3 weeks. My last name is very Italian, but apparently the family i was starting with hoped it was Spanish and expressed this with shock when I corrected them.

During my time there I witnessed quite a bit of racism directed at Italians and Turks. As it was explained to me, post WWII Germany encouraged migrants from Italy and Turkey to rebuild the workforce. What I witnessed was that Italians and Turks were looked down on and often held to lower jobs.

It's been 25 years. I hope things have changed.

My university had an entire /8 block and no real centralized IT. A number of departments ran NAT internally but the default was that every computer was assigned a public IP. This included connecting a laptop to the network in the library or in a dorm room. At some point they did require associating your MAC with a student or staff ID in order to acquire an IP.

There was also a pretty robust collection of drives shared on the network. Some were intentional and slightly nefarious, some were accidental and the people didn't even realize they were sharing.

This was over 25 years ago.

Wait till they find out how the elite and powerful view them (and pretty much all of us).

Thanks, now that's in my search history

At the very least to keep the status quo and mitigate irreversible harm. This seems like an order to push forward the agenda of their god king and barrel through with the harm.

And now we have Democrats talking about bills to reopen with a vote in ACA in December. I doubt SNAP will even come back to fill strength if the government opens back up

Through the 90s and visiting various areas of the US, those things were always there but not discussed in the open. People would say disgusting shit to people they thought they were safe saying those things to.

We've come to the point where people will say they aren't racist but will still defend racist views and say racist shit but it's not all brown people, just certain ones.

We're probably about 6 months from having these assholes walk around with armbands.

Just start leaving hot dogs and Italian beefs laying around.

I work on a business communication tool. You know those things you have in your phone that people send messages to and expect you to answer.

When I leave my computer, that's it, I'm done. I don't have the application on my phone. I didn't check email or messages after 5 or 6 and most days I work for a few hours before I check them.

On weekends, I turn off my computer.

I've been doing this for years now. No one notices, or if they do they are smart enough to not bring it up.

I came up in a world where we were the ones introducing Yahoo and AOL into the business world, I had a phone on my desk that was essential, and email was king. I rarely had a laptop and they were quite rare. When you left the office, it was expected that you were some for the day.

The grind culture over the last decade or so is insane. It is insane that people will give over half their time to a company that would show them the door in an instant.

Yes, you should do everything possible to set up your team and colleagues for success when you take your PTO, but that should never require a tether to the office.

I have a friend with a Subaru he didn't drive much. Battery kept dieing on him. He determined that with the car of there was a small drain on the battery. Took quite a bit to figure out that the issue was the old 3g connection for starlink. Even though he hadn't ever paid for the service, the car still kept trying to connect to the cell network. With 3g retired, it had nothing to connect to.

I also have a Subaru with a 3g connection I never replaced, but it's a daily driver. From what I can tell on forums, this only became a problem once there was no longer a 3g network. Just curious that even without the subscription the car was connecting to something and now that there is no connection, it will continuously try to connect.

There is a bypass module that can be purchased, because apparently if you just pull the fuse, you lose Bluetooth and the front speakers. You can keep Bluetooth by having an aftermarket headunit which bypasses the manufacturer Bluetooth.

Sounds like they created the violation in this case. They threatened arrest for disturbing the peace if he didn't comply and remove himself from the train. They are always able to manufacturer reason for detainment and threatening arrest.

Nah, we don't deport people anywhere they might have tires to.
