  1. This is exactly it. It will just be exchanged for one of the "meaningless" holidays. I'm betting MLK ("they already got one") or Memorial Day so that they can make that eternity after the new year without a paid holiday seem even longer.
  2. Chances of your employer giving you a day free of labor to commemorate the end of free labor? Like 0%.
  3. I wasn't able to watch the Xbox showcase until now. Disappointed that there is still no Elder Scrolls VI anything. They teased that what? Two, three years ago now? Sigh. Halo Infinite looks great though. Very excited for that.
  4. We're going 90s baby. Has to open with a scene of her rescuing somebody in an arcade while deflecting bullet-speed Blockbuster Video cases flung at her by Silver Swan for some reason. And as long as it's Gal Gadot as WW I'll be there no matter what.
  5. Actually, instead maybe they should have their empty units taxed heavily if it's unoccupied. Not sure if they'd rather be eaten or taxed, but go with whichever one they like the least.
  6. Utah, like a lot of the west, is experiencing drought. 84% of the state's water goes to agriculture. We live in a fucking desert. Half of that 84% goes to one crop: Alfalfa hay. Most which is sent to China. Probably not noteworthy: Governor Cox was an Alfalfa farmer before he was Lt. governor and then governor. He's also frequently touted as one of the "good" conservatives or whatever. No such thing but you know.
  7. No. He was working from home. Which I'll be doing too if I'm hired. And I'm currently working from home.
  8. Yeah I was unimpressed with the way they handled it last time. But it sounds like there will be more benefits for me than just more money if they end up offering me a position. Right now I work on a team with 4 other people that do what I do and I report up to a guy who has a ton of experience doing what I do. But at this company I would be the only person. So pretty much calling the shots and building things out the way I think is best.
  9. I started a new job for a lot more money two months or so ago. At the same time I was interviewing with this current company I was interviewing with another company. They ghosted me and went with somebody else. They reached out to me again yesterday and asked if I was still interested. I told them it will take more than they were offering last time and they still asked me to interview again. Okay. Had the first interview today. I found out that they're interested in me again because the guy they hired instead of me died. From Covid.
  10. A local ISP finally came to my neighborhood and I was able to ditch Comcast and its joke upload speeds and data caps for a gigabit fiber connection with no data cap. I frequently exceeded Comcast's data cap. So, even though it's only 500 MB tops I would still be upset with that counting against my data cap.
  11. Cheaper than the gas powered model? Doesn't look like an ass clown designed it? Sold.
  12. In the religion of my youth sexual sin was viewed as "second only to [murder]". I think it's a stretch to say the Bible doesn't specifically say "masturbation" therefore it's not a sin. Its message is pretty clear as it relates to lust and adultery. That being said I don't believe in that stuff as divine anymore. Don't worry about it. The psychology and biology are pretty clear that masturbation is normal and even healthy.
