I love mine, it’s so gentle and civilized.
I wish they made a modern version with the adjustable slice width thing, it’d be perfect.

Works from SJW.
My old school “upgraded” it when we left… by asphalting around it.

This toaster:
Might as well link the Technology Connections video already.
Yes, it’s an 18 minutes video on a 1950s toaster, you can thank me later.
Even if it was, employers have all kinds of software running on employee workstations, some including keyloggers and screenshots, etc

Cold pizza breakfast hits in all the right spots.
The PSU is sketch but likely fine. I’m more worried about the expansion slot cover that’s barely hanging.
I have an old pic somewhere of an old Frankenstein PC with the case cut with tin snips to fit a bigger GPU. It also had an external PSU for a while, although I did add a ground wire between the PSU and case. I’ll see if I can find it.
I would suggest to either remove the expansion slot cover or screw it back properly. As it is, it could probably fall and short something.
the PSU box
Aye, forget the dust, this whole rig with the PSU hanging out is sketchy af. Also, the barely hanging expansion slot cover, waiting to short something with the slightest bump is also a nice touch.
I’m fairly sure that kid would have done this regardless of said sign though.

The same applies to pictures of hikes. Sure you can take a nice panorama but that doesn’t do justice to actually being there.
I hear ya.
I get 1-6 meetings in the same time slot, people don’t care to check so I don’t care to show.
I decide which meetings are important for actually moving stuff forward and screw the rest.
There’s only ever one guy who complained to my boss…
I didn’t show up for a meeting for a Friday 7pm, invite sent at like 4:58pm the same day for some inane and absolutely not urgent subject.
I saw that invite come in, chuckled, closed my laptop, went home and ignored it.
Later that night, the guy went nuts and CC’d everyone’s bosses because he had wasted the full hour and obviously no one showed up to his meeting “even though I made sure to check everyone’s calendar and everyone was available and you’re all unprofessional”.
I don’t do emails notifications on phones as a rule unless you wanna pay my rate 24/7, but I had forgotten to do my time sheet so I was logged in doing that…
I dabble in a bit of passive aggressiveness in the face of corporate bullshit, so I finished my timesheet and hit propose new time… Sunday 3:21 am…
“Checked your calendar and it was available. Sorry for the inconvenience.”
Closed my laptop and fucked off.
The guy went nuclear over several emails.
Sent a quick email to my boss “Just a heads-up, I think I angered someone by not attending their 7pm meeting they sent at 4:58pm and proposing an equally ridiculous time”
Never heard from the guy again and the next week he wasn’t in the company AD anymore.
Probably went full tilt cookie monster in the coke jar or something.
Pfff, there’s barely any double-booking in that calendar.

Right, everyone knows telnet makes you gay.
It’s all detailed in the RFC854 for the telnet protocol by J. Reynolds and J. Postel. (Gay was pronounced with a J back then, like gifs)
That’s why they later invented SSH to uh… secure you from… the… gay packets…?

Sorry your mom sucks.
Not my parents, but I’ve had a narcissist work colleague pester me about my partner and I not wanting to have kids, trying to convince us I guess, using her ultimate argument…
Her: But… you need to have kids so they take care of you when you’re old!
Me: So… wait. Is that the reason you had kids?
Her: Well yea! (like that’s the only logical answer, duh)
Me: … wow …
Fast forward. Her kids are all grown up now, they’ve since cut all contact and she hasn’t seen them nor her grandkids in years. I run into them once in a while and I’ve helped them out with a handful of times with things like moving or maintenance or tax reports or whatever. There’s a few things they never really got to learn growing up and anything they could ever do was never good enough for her, even though she’s terrible at most things.
Now and then, she’d still complain about them being ungrateful and I’d just ignore her… she’s never once come even close to the self-awareness that she drove them away by being a narcissist asshole.
She’s retired now, so neither of us have to deal with her now.
Great fucking plan, having kids to guilt trip them into caring for you…
They had the guts to move on and I’m proud of them.
I was probably the first to tell them so, some random passerby.
Fuck narcissists.
We know, we just have tons of more meaningful criticism than his looks.
