I’m assuming open houses aren’t a thing in Belgium? In the US, it’s no big deal to walk in to an open house and just tell the agent that you live in the neighborhood, like the house and have always wanted to see the inside. They’re usually pretty chill about that.
Ubuntu 9.04, because of WUBI (anyone remember that?). Unstable as hell, but allowed you to run a near bare metal Linux install without the hassle of setting up dual-booting and a separate partition. Liked Ubuntu it so much that I soon replaced Windows completely. Currently running Debian, so I haven’t strayed far from the family.
For the record, the problem in Norway was that government programs to encourage electric vehicle ownership were too successful and incentivized people to drive instead of use transit. Also, the financial incentives for purchasing electric cars mostly went to people who were already wealthy.
I have this one. It’s hurricane force when turned up all the way. never had a problem pushing anything with it.
I also recently bought an electric hedge trimmer, which I love. Should have bought one years ago, it saves so much time compared to hand clippers.
Leopards eating faces is exactly what this is, though. “Muslim who supports Christian Nationalists because they hate gay people shocked that Christian Nationalists also hate Muslims.”
46 at present. Furry porn sites that weren’t tagged NSFW, memes, shitposting, a number of communities from the h… server (you know the one), tankie communities.
I’m subscribed to a lot of communities, too, but I still use the all feed for discovery.
It’s not that bad, the macros are just front end apps. Our data is housed in a real, enterprise class database.
We do have developers on our team. They write Excel macros :). I work in data integration, so it isn’t as simple as building a more robust tool. We still need infrastructure support or our tool doesn’t do anything.
Another confirmation here. At my previous job, I was they guy who built Access databases and wrote VBA code. While not ideal, it was a very small business (less than 10 employees) and it was fit for purpose.
When I got a new job at a company with almost 3,000 employees, I was like, “Finally, I’ll be working somewhere that has proper IT resources.” Ha! I soon find out that my department runs critical business infrastructure with Excel macros. And we have a proper IT department.
As everyone has already said, if IT resources are in short supply (or the wait is too long, or building projects with IT support is a PITA), then people will build systems with the tools they have at hand. And that’s often MS Office.
Came here to say the same thing. The tone of the debate is not going to improve with the bomb-throwing toddler onstage with the rest of the clown show.
It’s a cult. MAGAts need deprogramming, not negative ads.
And this particular group are not good guys, either.
What did you expect the fine people in his district to do, vote for the Democrat?
The only strategic thinking that McCarthy seems capable of is, “How can I keep my job today?”
He could have been more bipartisan, he could have made deals across the aisle, he could have reigned in some of the clownshow investigations his side of the aisle have been promoting. He might have been able to put together a centrist coalition that would have neutered the Freedumb Caucus. But McCarthy, like most Congressional Republicans, is incapable of complex thought.
And now he’s stuck. If he makes a deal with the Democrats to avert a shutdown he loses his job. If there’s an extended government shutdown a lot of Republicans are going to lose their jobs next year. Not to mention the pain a shutdown will cause to ordinary Americans (as if any Republican cared about that).
Yep, nothing but the best snake oil for the rubes. Republicans love their crooked businessmen.
Now come on, she wasn’t actually on her knees in the theater. Unless there’s some unpublished photos out there (asking for a friend).
The entire Freedumb Caucus is still on board. The “shocking” revelation that Biden hasn’t committed any impeachable acts isn’t going to deter the GQP at all.
Doing my bit to support the open web. Plus, while it’s probably just familiarity, I’ve always felt that Firefox works with me while Chrome works against me.
Trump demands a lot of things.
It will always be Xitter to me, with the X pronounced like an “sh”.
I think Harris could have had a more nuanced answer than, “Fracking, fuck yeah!” But it’s a damn shame that, to win the electoral college you have to be all drill, baby drill.
Although that’s politics… “It’s great to be here in Chicken Fark, Arkansas! I know, in the past, I have been accused by my opponent of being opposed to chicken farking. But I’m here today to tell you that, if elected, I promise to fark more chickens than any president in history!”
Still voting for Harris, obviously.
