And at least I'm North America there's another Maté relative, Yaupon. Both are holly species.

In this case the bond is because he's appealing a civil judgement that's been reached. This is different from a bail bond. He's not at risk of jail over this unless he gets in contempt of court.

At least in my faang office, there's essentially zero ports to plug into. If you have a desktop, there's a port, but that's the exception. I've never seen anyone plug a laptop in.

They mostly don't even give out desktops to devs these days, everything is in the cloud.

My experience with it on Android had several weird bugs

  • Consumed a lot of battery
  • Crashed on swapping focus to another app
  • Opening the app would get stuck connecting to the game state server (even though the app works fine offline) so I had to use airplane mode to launch the app

These seem resolved now

This is a game I keep coming back to. I love it, and it's got great replayability. I'm glad the phone version works well now.

A lot of us in the US still pay rent in checks. I get them from my bank in books of a hundred, and there's no upper limit on how big they can be.

Anything that risks bouncing requires getting a fancy check (certified) where they take the money out before issuing the check.

It's mostly software engineers, and distributed across almost every team.

Genocide is not an appropriate response to an attack.

It's all bullshit, and you've hit the nail on the head.

The only way out is through each other: change your workplace to be less bullshit. Demand dignity. Maybe bring your friends and make a co-op.

 

I'm out of the loop.
