  • I’ll repeat this to everyone and it’s not because you’re looking for jobs incorrectly, it’s because you said you lack the “hook-ups”. Professional social sites like LinkedIn are critical for this very thing. So even if you absolutely HATE JOE, you connect because one day Joe will be employed and you might not be and have low enough standards to refer you for that $500 hiring bonus knowing full well you hate his guts.

    So send connections to people in same and higher roles as you work with them like the professional corporate slut LinkedIn wants you to be so that one day that asshat joe willingly sells his soul for $500 and gets you past the first line of interviews and you get a job. But until then, attend local job field events and make new friends.

    Good luck out there to every unemployed person.

    P.s. Fucking joe is a fucking cunt.



  • Tomorrow, i think i’m going to burn my monthly tokens for claude on a website called like theclownhidesitall where we list all the things successfully passed on the 2025 agenda and it’s correlating clown in charge event.

    I’ll make sure to add comments section and ads, but only if you’re in red states so all you ignorant dipshits make me money and can jerk eachother off in comments. We’ll ask claude about ad logic too, to find those secret red assholes by cookies and show them this shit too. The rest of the decent world will just see the same website, with the same facts but no ads and have a link to comment if they want to stir the shit (with suggested replies and prompts).

    If someone knows of a site already, share it. I’ll donate









  • Absolutely insane. If the account was inactive, sure or it was some no name band, ok. But really sucks to see it. I don’t see anything about it, but i hope they were at least compensated.

    I managed to grab a nice 3 letter twitter name that ended up being the name of a company who just had twitter support (before twitter sucked) send me a message and they offered to buy it from me - reasonable price too. I wasn’t holding it for ransom, it also happens to be my initals too, and I just posted family shit, small links, activities, boring shit for friends. I didn’t care and it was still early enough I could get the same 3 letters with 2 numbers after. Walked away with a nice 5k pocket change. Had I declined it might have ended up in court, but this shit looks like the billionaires club just commanded it.





  • Yeah, 20 years ago they weren’t a self paid tracker that reported my every action on the web - tracking was minimal and limited. But now maybe not a forest as much as just limiting what tech I have in my house - for instance last week I bought an analaog scale to replace my 15 year old smart one from Withings that has been without WiFi for years.

    I also limit how much time I have my phone on my person, or total screen time.


  • Reading this thread has taught me that when I have a girl over and she tells me that I am not a normal male, I really had no idea how much I didn’t do as a male that other men do all the time….

    I wear all of my clothes until they show clear signs of being worn out and then determine whether that it should be donated or trashed. And i have one shirt then I’ll probably never throw away and it’s one that I’ve had since the 80s, my goonies shirt.




  • Companies claiming 99.9999 uptime is an absurd goal for a SLA, and wouldn’t even survive a small internet outage like a DDoS attack or Akamai outage. I remember in the 90s selling the idea of 5 9’s - 99.999% on my resume until some manager who Interviewed me asked me to state the expected downtime. I stopped claiming that number because it’s impossible without full active redundancy in different locations and not dependent on external providers like cloudflare ever going down.

    And please don’t argue maintenance windows “cover it” because that’s not how they work in the real world today.

    Downtime per year:

    • 99% ~3.65 days (5,256 min)
    • 99.9% ~8.77 hours (526 min)
    • 99.99% ~52.6 min
    • 99.999% ~5.26 min
    • 99.9999% ~31.5 seconds

    For my home lab I’m happy my stuff is online and content I hardly lose access when there’s a power outage thanks to my ups. But if I tracked I’d be closer to 95%. Good enough but I can’t wait till I just don’t care to run anything.
