This guy has been in the store for OVER 2 FUCKING HOURS playing scratch-offs. Thank god we have a vending machine for them, so I don't physically have to stand there pulling them off the rolls over and over again for him. But it's still fucking infuriating that I can't just tell the guy to go fuck off and not come back.

He's clearly a fucking moron. If he wants to throw his money in the trash that's his prerogative, I suppose. But the fact that he's sitting there in the corner doing nothing but playing lottery means I can't actually do my fucking job. I can't leave the counter while there's a customer in the store. So I can't do any cleaning. I can't go stock the coolers. I can't make coffee. I can't check the shelves. I can't even go to the bathroom or smoke a cigarette. I'm literally stuck sitting here staring at the guy and being bored off my fucking ass.

Fuck him. And fuck the lottery. It's a fucked up institution from top to bottom. -_-

It's all about word of mouth. In the past, Myspace was the place where all the good stuff was. We all see how that ended up.


Except that MySpace always sucked, we just literally didn't have any other options.

It's gradual, I should note. It's not a heavy loss of years or even days per se in lump sumps each time you use the power.


Yeah, I know. I age normally within my frame of reference, and they don't age when their time is stopped. So essentially I'm dying early, because I only experience another 20 years according to the world's advancements and such. I might "live" 50 years worth of time personally in that span, but most of it would be me doing stuff alone and nobody else is aware of it. And that sucks.

If it worked so that if I froze time I would stop aging just like everybody else, then it's by far the better power. As it is, it kinda sucks. Plus people are eventually going to start questioning why I look like I'm 80 when I should only be 50.

Meh, it's the fact that I continue to age that really kills the freeze time power. I'd abuse it so much that by the time everyone I know is 20 years older I'd be on my death bed. I mean, no more romance sucks, but dying early sucks even more.

I asked about remuneration rate for this role and he said wasn't able to increase my salary from the what it is now. But there is the potential of it going up before the end of the year.


Point out that he's literally asking you to do more work without being compensated for that extra work. Then tell him that because you like the job and you do trust that the company isn't actively trying to take advantage of you but is genuinely just in a tight spot at the moment you'll take the promotion on the condition that, by the end of the year, you get the pay raise.

When November comes around and you haven't had a raise yet, remind the boss of your agreement.

If it gets to December and you still don't have a raise, remind him again of the agreement and inform him that you'll be putting in your two week notice just before the holiday.

Oh, and somewhat more on-topic, I'd suggest looking into MSi laptops. They've got a pretty wide range of stuff, from more budget-friendly to top-of-the-line gaming rigs. The prices are competitive (unlike Alienware) and they have pretty good build quality too.

The one I just bought is an MSi and it's one of their top-tier models. The thing is built like a tank, hardly any flex on chassis, plenty of ventilation for the built-in cooling even without using any extra laptop cooling pads/fans. And, again, it's got Windows 10 and I haven't had a single issue with it yet.

It was a custom build through GenTechPC.com, and if you're planning to get a custom build instead of just a standardized off-the-shelf laptop, I highly recommend them. It took a couple days longer than their estimate and I hadn't received a shipping notification yet, so I called them up and their service guy was extremely knowledgeable and explained what the holdup was immediately and apologized, promising it would be shipped the next day. Which it was. Turns out a part for my laptop arrived and wasn't the one they had ordered, so it took an extra couple days to get the right one shipped. Not their fault, and the fact that they didn't give me some bullshit excuses, said they were sorry for the delay and they had bumped it up to the top of the priority list so that it was finished immediately when the right part came in, and spoke to me like a reasonable human being puts their customer service far above the vast majority of companies, imo. XD

I could be wrong on this, but I believe the 40 years thing isn't totally accurate. I think the max sentence for each charge is 5 years, which would total 40 years (8 charges * 5 years each), but the standard is generally to serve them concurrently rather than consecutively. So he'd only actually have to go to prison for 5 years.

Two laptops i leased had Windows10 and i had nothing but problems downloading anything and it wouldn't run RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 half the time.


I have a brand new laptop with Windows 10 and have not had a single problem with downloading/playing anything so far.

People had problems with Windows 8 when it came out. And Windows XP. And literally every Windows operating system ever made. They're an extreme minority and making an important decision because of anecdotal evidence of either side is foolish. Windows 10 works fine and the vast majority of people who use it have no issues.

Considering older versions of Windows get less and less support, it only makes sense to go with the newest stable version currently available. At the moment, that would be Windows 10.

Then that's a temporal loop, not time travel.

Time travel is literal travel. The "old version" of himself is still there doing what he did originally, and there is now a second "future version" of him that has traveled backwards in time. They do not inhabit the same body. The "old version" would, at the moment time catches back up to the point where the time travel happened, go ahead and travel backwards in time and live out the actions that the "future version" performed during that same time frame. The "future version" would, at the moment time catches back up to the point where the time travel happened, go on and continue doing whatever it wanted without traveling back in time again.

Bacteria that makes you sick is on the outside of the steak, I believe. The inside (if stored correctly) doesn't develop the same bacteria.

Going further, some Japanese restaurants (Hibachi) will serve raw beef, which is really good. I think Ethiopian restaurants too.


Technically this, but most places will either refuse to cook you a blue steak or make you sign a liability waiver before they'll do so.
