Define clean? If there are dishes, you do them yourself. If you make a massive mess you clean it yourself to avoid fees. At the end of the stay you generally do something simple like toss all used bedding into one spot. Sometimes they expect you to start laundry by putting all towels in the washer. So, yeah, sort of, but there’s a massive difference between cleaning up after yourself and starting the laundry compared to sanitizing everything, vacuuming everything, etc.

Let me put it like this. I hate house keeping. It’s the worst. I’ve never viewed the check out requirements at any of the places I stayed as too much. Sure, there’s the occasional nightmare scenario, but hotels have nightmares too.

I think so. I read it a few months back, but I don’t use any apt based systems to check on.

I think you can do apt upgrade --update now.

Rent a house instead of a hotel room. We’ve used that and other services like VRBO to rent cabins in the mountains. There’s nothing really “special” about it and it’s not really different from those other services like VRBO that came before. I think originally the difference was letting people rent a spare room, but I’ve personally never met anyone who has used that functionality (leasing or renting side).

You should take your own advice.

It’s very annoying to have managers say their hands are tied when they very well could go to bat for you with their superiors. I was lucky to have one manager really push for me in the past like that. It’s rare.

Further, if you get code into the kernel, anyone who breaks it needs to fix it. So it seems to me it’s only a problem if you’re trying to do something like maintain a proprietary driver without putting it into the kernel? Or something to that effect?

Yeah, no shit, thank you for repeating what I said. The point being I never cared about the money and didn’t even understand it was only about the money. I only wanted recognition.

I fought for getting a 4/5 rating at an old job and gave lots of examples. Their argument was that I didn’t deserve it because those were just expected. I pointed out my work compared to others in my team and was told that it compares across the company, not the team. I kept causing a fuss about it because I was so angry about it and finally my manager said something about the bonuses has already been communicated and people would be angry to get less. I was confused because I didn’t want more money, I was just offended they said I was performing on average when I was going above and beyond every day. It was also really embarrassing to me. If they’d just said the rating doesn’t affect anything except your bonus I wouldn’t have even cared.

The whole thing is all BS.

I hate cliffhangers. Especially since new seasons aren’t guaranteed.

I am obligated to comment on this due to my profile picture. 💜

That’s me!

It pisses me off that you gotta pay so much money to look at the official ISO 8601.

Fuck HDCP.

Did you ever use Atom?

I used to had linux mint in an old computer and for some reason the wifi didn’t work.

To me this implies it isn’t their primary computer. It’s not “manipulating and humiliating” someone else. It’s just saying, “you’ve been saying you’d fix this but it hasn’t worked, I need to use this computer for something.”

And no need to feel sorry for my wife. We’ve been together over half our lives, married for over a decade, and extremely happy with each other. My wife has done things like this to me. It’s not toxic or manipulative. Sometimes I overestimate my own skills and/or get distracted with other things.

Why? Imagine your house’s door doesn’t work so you have to make a long trip through the back. You keep asking your partner to fix it. They insist they’ll get the door working. Either they can’t or don’t, doesn’t matter, but you have the money and are willing to pay for someone to fix it. Your partner insists they can fix it. I think it’s reasonable to say something like “if it’s not fixed in two weeks I’m paying someone to fix it.”
