Also do you have a way to unlock the door? Not from a privacy breaching point, you shouldn’t do that, but as a you just heard bloody murder and need to get in (or you don’t get any response from them). Don’t let a locked door be a 5 minute difference you’ll regret.

I think you’re going about this the wrong way, You won’t have wake them up if they can never fall asleep listening to every song here all night. Tell them you’ll only turn it of if they set their own alarm.

Right now you’re training them that the obnoxious music will be their alarm.

Also, if your kid has an android I love the alarm app called AMDroid. It is super customizable, (who knew an alarm could have so many options). It can set to do things like send a notification after a few minutes “are you awake?”, if you don’t respond the alarm goes again. You can set various math or word challenges to stop the alarm, you can make it only turn of if you’re close enough to the router, or at a certain light level, and so on.

Hey, don’t do Pig-pen dirty like that.

Adding to that last one;

Are you an antique door knob or cheap one that will fail in 10 years?

privacy.com is great, although they only operate in the US. Not sure what the European alternative is.

You can spin up throw away and merchant locked cards, set limits per card, and pause or delete them anytime without having to deal with bank and getting a new card.

The King Author Company evil? This sounds like some propaganda spread by Foricher.

“Junior level position, 5+years experience required!”

I know what I said :P

That $150 isn’t going straight to the mechanic, they get a fraction of that. Rest goes to the support staff, keeping the lights on, and general profits.

Mechanics, especially at dealership, get what’s called flat rate set by the how long manufactures expects a job to take.

For an oil changes, if the mfq estimates 30min, the mechanic gets paid for 30min regardless if the job takes 10 minutes or 2 hours. Guess what they’re incentivized to do? Rush jobs and finding excuses to do shit that doesn’t need to be done.

Need someone else’s help with something? That person doesn’t get paid for helping you out, so guess who doesn’t want to help/train the new guys.

How about tools? Most mechanics are expected to supply their own tool, minus the big shop wide stuff, so most spend tens of thousands of dollars over the years.

I remember a job add on the radio “guaranteed 60 hours and work on saturdays”.

Realistically I’d love “mandatory tips” to go away all together. People who are hired to a job, do their job and get paid by their employer. Anything on top is extra. Both the mechanic and baritsa should be paid proper wages from the start.

Yes it is, I’ll type out your password and you’ll see its now hashed out on your end

Hmm, that is true.

I always just pressed the shutdown button if I was putting it in a bag. If I was only moving from one place to another, then I wouldn’t want it turn off for just closing it.

Yeah, that’s a cursed setup, must be set to shutdown on lid close, but also it doesn’t hang if there is an unsaved document like every other time?

And no habitual Ctrl+s after every sentence or two? If the kid didn’t wipe her work, a random windows crash or forced update would have.

The second to last kid might be a girl, but that’s just going by the long hair and pink shirt…they’re too far back and we can’t see the face to make any real determination.

Wait until you here about the hidden mesh networks they create with other iot shit

Expectations vs reality

“Grandma why did you wreck your computer??!!”

Oh hey be reasonable now, those jackasses wouldn’t go anywhere near a ball crushing factory in fear of the association with balls turning them gay.

That was 9 years ago!!!

I’ve been through booth, Overall nothing I’d ever plan a trip specifically for, but everyone has their own interests.

Ithaca - the town itself; no. There’s a lot of cool hiking trails, and some water falls/scenic views nearby if you’re into that. Cornell University is also there, if you like exploring old architecture there’s some neat buildings.

Troy also no, unless you want to visit a town that looks like it hasn’t changed since 1980. It is right next to Albany, the state capitol, so there’s that.
