It’s funny people still think this, they just replaced nearly my entire M1 MacBook Pro that was completely fucked because of water damage. Literally everything but the display was replaced, I basically have a new computer at the cost of $300+whatever I paid for AppleCare+ when I bought it ($400, I think?), which is significantly cheaper than buying a new one would have been

The fear of being smashed makes them retract into their safety zone

Some companies in my experience do do exit interviews for people who are fired. This makes more sense when you realize exit interviews are mostly to give the company a heads up if they think you might try to sue them.

Movies and TV shows are absolutely packed full of product placement advertisements.

Tankies aren’t that type of communist, that is, sane. Tankies are auth rights disguised as leftists.

Most of Oklahoma is, but as you get near the edges of the state you encounter some bumpy bits. Looks like Turner Falls is near the Texas border.

They probably actually delete it if you request them to from a country covered by GDPR, but not if you just hit the delete button on your post. This is fairly common.

That’s a bit sad, init?

This is why scammers are so efficient, they adapt to people not knowing things because the people they’re targeting don’t. They say start menu or button that looks like 4 windows
