    usually i think it’s cringe when people shit on the linguistics of memes, but this is the most non-pov “pov” post i’ve ever seen. the meaning would be the EXACT same if they just hadn’t included the dumbass “pov:” part. fucking spotify marketing intern ass buzzword

    I do hope when someone reads about a Christian Nationalism lawsuit going on they don’t find out what law office is representing the guy who wants to hurt gay people. Then find the fax number on their site, go get a temp email at all the free sites that provide it, go to a send fax over the Internet site, and send them long faxes.

      An old trick you could do on old physical fax machines was to tape a couple of sheets of black construction paper together, feed them into the machine and tape them into a loop. Dial your special person and burn through all their toner. Of course, now it would just generate a bunch of emails.

        Black fax - such an effective remote physical attack that fax companies had to actually hard-code a defence against it, to not print pages where there would be enough ink or toner dispensed that it could damage the machine or be a fire hazard

      It depends, if the employer doesn’t treat his staff well, they’d give you extra portion.

      That’s incredible.

      Then again, school IT jobs are often given to “my nephew who is good with computers”, because the pay is often half compared to the private sector.

        One teacher told us that once an IT technician at our school built the network, connecting 2 school institutions with ~7 buildings using only hubs. That network was apparently almost unusably slow, which isn’t surprising.

          My brother works for a school with 200 kids PreK-12. He’s a teacher, but he also does IT. He gets a $500/yr stipend, and he calls me at least twice a week with basic questions that are solved 95% of the time by rebooting the computer.

          I’ve told him a number of times the district owes me that stipend lol
