  • She waited 72 hours. The last living rescue was less than 24 hours after the flood.

    We don’t pay government to provide services, we pay government to support political functionaries and their appointed staff in their role as thieves of our taxes.

    Small government for ®'s is no spending on services. Small government for (D)'s is no limits on spending for things we all agree we need (with all of the overhead of the R’s).

    I guess I would rather have the one where I get some basic level of service from my government but I can’t claim to like it.








  • My best friend at work is a dyed-in-the-wool conservative. He will never not be - and I rush to profess that he is not an asshole…he just thinks conservitave/republican is the side he needs to support probably because that’s what daddy did, dunno. We see eye-eye on most other things.

    We do not agree on anything political except that everyone is way too heated up over everything. We are still friends, regardless.

    My point in responding is that his gay daughter disconnected from him after Trump v.1 - would not take a call or interact in any way. This is painful for my friend and he has been confused by it but does not realize why his daughter won’t engage. I think she is offended that his political choice doesn’t allow for her right to exist and, frankly I agree with her.

    I think my friend has lost his daughter forever because he is a stubborn man. I hope your dad can open his heart to accept you.





  • You list an education qualification in your post which has nothing to do with your stated intention. Yes, you’re learned and probably smart but why do you want to be a sysadmin?

    Have you ever coded anything? Do you want to learn that? Do you want to use your humanities degree to be a caring supporter of stupid system users? Are you even aware of the credo of the bastard operator from hell?

    Sorry…saw your post and just wanted to take a piss…you’ll be fine if you want to do that but it’s probably not just like “installing linux” on a computer.







  • I wrote it to automate my workflow - I’m in sales. I enter site details at the customer location and my app crunches the numbers to pre-fill all relevant documents (contract, financing, etc) in PDF form. I also use it as a presentation device to explain service and product details/specs using pictures, videos and PDF documents.

    No more paper, no more fiddling around with calculator and rate-cards. I do a little data entry and basically my job is done.
