They often have no damn clue what they're selling and clearly just make up prices on the spot. I've flipped a few things for a 500%+ profit from the super-ultra-Jesus-ey thrift stores. Computer hardware in particular is something they just don't grasp the value of. If you ever need a managed switch or a spare monitor, check the thrift stores.

I can tell this is old because the tip selection doesn't go up to 30%+.

Seriously, tipping is getting out of hand. I compromised by going above 15% to begin with, I'll be cold and dead in the ground before I go above 20% and I will die on this hill.

That article was full of such blatantly misleading crap. Headline talks about record number of adblocker uninstalls, but the actual data says it was an uptick in both installs and uninstalls. In other words it was people cycling through different adblockers trying to find one that still worked.

Swag. The more we show up in search, the more people will be asking "what the heck is Lemmy?" Some of 'em will join.

Well then. Here. We. Go.

This is why they can pry my ability to work from home from my cold, dead hands.

Don't even get me started on the ones who try to argue that "North Korea is more free and democratic than the US".

Pretty sure this is a bug. Gboard can freak out after an update and stop working. Sometimes you need to reinstall Gboard, sometimes switching your language to English makes it work again, sometimes it's the TV freaking out over some USB device that needs to be unplugged and replugged.

They'd just need to check for him at the base of any gradual incline without a handrail.

Your government sites for renewing your drivers license or scheduling hard refuse pickup?

As a government programmer, let me assure you that we're so goddamn far behind modern tech we've only just stopped supporting IE6.

I can hardly wait for someone to find a vulnerability in their blockchain implementation that allows community points to execute arbitrary code.
