I bought a tiny blower to dust my keyboard with, instead of a can of air and it has a warning on it that made me deep dive.
Essentially if it plugs into the wall, it needs UL certification, but if it’s just USB, it doesn’t need any.
Saves a ton and they just subcontract the cube part.
Careful if you ordered one for USB C.
Frequently they won’t update because it would cost money on R&D to redesign the internal components to accommodate the added electrical capacity. So you might burn out the device or start a fire by using a non usb 2.0 cable
"We need all of you to return to office so we can cut down on our IT expenses, in order to allow you all to work from home"
"We are laying off 10% of the workforce because we signed a $1BN contract with Microsoft for Copilot to do those jobs instead"
The math isn't mathing
Seeing an ad for Tiktok on Paramount+ and feeling the need to explain that this is an early Fathers Day/Thank You gift, for having daddy help you buy Warner Bros
I need Survivor to do a “Jeff Probst Cut”.
Every few episodes just drop one episode where you see only the parts with Jeff from the prior 3/4.
So challenges and rewards and tribal council.
Skip all the other stuff
The fight was wild. We put my tailgate down and just watched for a half hour, from a safe distance.
We have a good handful nearby, thanks to a big park with a lake and we affectionately refer to them all as Harriet the Hawk.
This is from my desk too
Any day where Colton Moore takes an L is a good day.
That guy really stinks.
We have one that likes to sit on a powerline near our house, and occasionally it will be over the street. Easily within 10’ before, but straight up.
We also had 4 fighting in our front yard and one was injured on the ground while the other 3 were watching from the trees. That one was REAL close to
Same energy
I would include the stock based comp as part of the total nominal comp as well.
But you are not wrong that there needs to be a tax overhaul that includes them more dramatically.
"Or to see MELANIA! So go watch it!
please. we are begging you. someone needs to or we are all going to get fired and probably sent to Iran in the first wave of the draft"
The thing is, if we did it, we would maximize returns to shareholders, because the first few years of figuring out how to work the loopholes, would just relate in returning obscene amounts of money to the P&L
Adventure Journal and Mountain Gazette are my 2 pieces of subscribed print media still (Atlanta Journal Constitution was on there, until they killed their paper copy on 1/1/2026).
Highly recommend, although it's all about ecology and outdoor adventuring, but with gorgeous photography
Simply increasing the lowest paid worker from $7.25 to $15 (what a lot of states seem to have landed on as a decent level for minimum wage), would increase pay to almost $1M
CEO compensation should be set at a multiple over the lowest paid worker.
I've thrown out 32x before.
At the federal minimum wage of $7.25/hour, this would put a CEO's pay at $482,560, however it is within their power to get a raise!
Give the bottom a raise and you can give yourself one too.
What good is a built in diagnostic feature, if it can't tell you when the appliance is broken?
Currently dealing with a fridge/freezer that is not cooling properly, but the online diagnostic just returns an "everything is good! Maybe don't keep the doors open so long, you idiot" message.
It’s only been a week and a half?!
Can we go back to a time when everyone arguing about a dress color was a driving topic for like 5 straight days?
I would like the rest of the world to chill long enough for that again
Meanwhile, every Harris/Walz voter:
Rick Scott doing his best 😑 face
Is this what the alt-right has been referencing all this time, when they talk about "Safe Spaces"?
Part 1: Why am I going to bed when the sun is still up?
Part 2: Why are we going to school when it's still dark?
Part 3: What do you mean we have to go play outside after dinner?!
Don't your pipes just deliver Southern Comfort out of the "Hot" tap and Hurricanes out of the cold?
That is my recollection of New Orleans. Granted I stayed mostly near Canal St
It's called "now we can go for after dinner walks in safety" time
I’ve got a bunch of Homer buckets full of sand and charcoal ready to go, and a nearby creek. Just need a good archimedes screw or air ram pump and I’m golden.
Now if I could just turn these squirrels decimating my bird feeders into a reasonable stew somehow…
This was one of the best executions of “open world” that I’ve ever seen.
And the soundtrack absolutely slapped
