He was charged was wire fraud. That’s basically the Secret Service’s THING.
Don’t do wire fraud. Anything else is pretty fine. The moment the fraud goes over wires, you’re ultrafucked.

This is what you get for having an utterly stupid return policy. Complete assholes come in, asshole the place up, and get their balls slurped by management because ‘DER COOSTERMUR IS ALWAYS ROIT!!!’
Happy to see these idiots (HD management) get fucked over like this. They all deserve it. Management in these stores is uniformly soulless corporate robots or people so beaten down by mediocrity that they can’t be bothered to leave for a company that won’t treat them like shit.
61 stores. This is not one dude being a dick. This is systemic failure on HD’s part. Fuck 'em.
Also fuck that guy because there’s no doubt he was a prick to everyone he encountered.
Because when someone says “COME HERE” they’re making the statement that whatever you’re doing is pointless shit that can be dropped immediately.
I didn’t tolerate that with my parents, and I sure as shit wouldn’t tolerate it with a spouse. If you can’t be bothered to give me a reason to go there, don’t fucking tell me to go there.
“Hey, check this shit out!” - Fine. Implies it’s on my own time. “Could you come in here?” - Fine. A request can be denied. “Come here.” - I’m not your fucking dog.
Or maybe they’re just not the magical pixie dust so many people that don’t own them think they are. Multiple sizes of Mirra and Aeron killed my upper back. As it turns out, having shitty mesh doesn’t actually support your back so much as it just wedges it into a vaguely U shape. I tried “superior office chair” after “OMG AMAZING OFFICE CHAIR” and the only thing that doesn’t leave me reaching for pain pills are good quality gaming chairs, which are typically stiffer.
Because, again, ergonomics is an individual thing and not a fucking marketing point. An “ergonomic” chair is only “ergonomic” if you happen to personally fit that manufacturer’s definition of “ergonomic.”
You’ll have people here recommending specific brands or manufacturers.
Don’t fall victim to this. Brands change. Manufacturers change.
Learn how to recognize a good product from bad.
Currently, right now, I can recommend the first version of the LTT backpack. The construction is solid. Gusseted and reinforced frickin’ everywhere. The straps are solid. They’re attached to the main body of the pack with thick, heavy fabric and not just sewn directly on. They’re also reinforced with rivets. The zippers are solid. The interior has a couple of soft pockets for scratch-prone items. There are multiple laptop/document sleeves. The main compartment is way larger than it first appears. The only issue I’ve had was with the shitty carabiner-style zipper pulls that everyone knew would break. Replaced them with some paracord. Problem solved.
I have no doubt this particular backpack will last me forever. But that’s no guarantee anything they make in the future will.
Do not worry about point of origin. Quality can come from anywhere. Shit can come from anywhere. It’s all down to the what the brand and manufacturer are looking for.
Watch out for “bait and switch” brands that pop up out of nowhere, sell direct only, and initially offer a very well made product. So many times they find some modicum of success and then immediately turn to offering multiple tiers of products, with their initial “good” products skyrocketing in price as they push the margins higher and higher. There are a TON of small shoe brands that fit this bill, unfortunately.
It’s not burned, it’s polymerized. It’s not dangerous because there’s nothing fundamentally dangerous about the oil to begin with.
Working somewhere that had only Herman Miller chairs fucking broke me.
Almost like ergonomics is individual and not a fucking brand name.
I’ve yet to find a “serious office chair” that actually properly supports MY spine the way my supposedly shitty “gaming” chair does.
Mainly because the concept of a “serious office chair” is horseshit. A chair is either good or bad and sucking off one particular name over and over doesn’t change the fact that a well-made uncomfortable piece of shit is still and uncomfortable piece of shit.
Whenever I encounter someone complaining about “spoiled athletes demanding more money” I always ask them how much they think the owner is making.
It never fails that their brain kind of shuts off for a second before rebooting and realizing that one owner is easily raking in what ten or twelve top-tier players make per year.
Owners have never been your friend. That shit MIGHT have been applicable when the owner was the local used car magnate and said used car was a Model T. It hasn’t been the case in my lifetime, or likely anyone reading this.
This is what happens when you allow absolute pedants to make calls. Between this and the idiot calls about home plate “blocking” it’s clear someone in NY is more concerned with rulebook masturbation than they are with making sense.
Every single ump needs to be fired as a warning to the new hires.
Or they can stop letting a hammered Angel Hernandez make calls from New York.
My grandparent’s house was $10,000 in 1959.
When my grandfather passed we sold it for close to $300,000. In a shitty small town in Texas.
This is what happens when housing is sold as an investment and not a place to live.
Here in Texas you’ll see job posts from one clearly triggered right-wing small business owner paying $7.25 an hour, talking about how if you’re working there you’re WORKING there followed by a list of like 400 things you’ll be doing.
This will be next to a job post from an actually sane individual that’s paying more than twice as much for 1/4th of the effort, and you’re still being overworked.
They don’t want employees, they want indentured servants.
…are… you… fucking trolling?
Do you not know what a port is? Are you not aware that numerous modern game engines don’t even need to be ported, they just run on multiple platforms?
Macs being ARM based has FUCKING NOTHING TO DO with there being few games for the platform.
Apple has never courted game developers. They have never been about absolute gaming power. They’re about developers, media production, and general use audiences. They do not build gaming computers. Any gaming capability is ancillary to their actual business model.
If a developer doesn’t see a potential ROI on porting a game to Apple silicon, they won’t. It’s that simple.

I could keep doing this. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of games on Steam that started on mobile.
Not that this matters because the entire fucking point is that NO, Macs aren’t “unable to run games because ARM” when almost all mobile games run on ARM and they get ported to non-ARM processors ALL THE FUCKING TIME.
Are Linux users just unable to think beyond what’s literally in front of them?
What the fuck does any of that have to do with running AAA games?
The Deck is not competing with consoles, genius. Unless you’re so stuck in early 2000’s fashion that you pants are so ginormously huge that you can fit a PS5 and TV in them.
Stay on topic or piss off.

Mosquitoes specifically can all fuck off and die without anything really noticing. Anything that uses them as a food source has other options. They provide no net benefits in the way bees, spiders, worms, or basically anything else does.
The rest of the multi-legged realm is kind of really fucking important.
