Your manager can go suck a dick. They are absolutely worth it and worth the out of pocket expense for the exam. The long term benefits (it looks very good on a cv) are absolutely beneficial to your career, not to mention you will learn relevant stuff in the process.
That last statement is absolutely true. My first 5-6 years in IT I kind of languished, because there were very few people around me that made an effort or pushed me to get better or just explained stuff to me. Then I got a call from a recruiter for a system engineer position. While I didn’t get that job, it did lead me to quit my job to go find something better. I then did find an IT system engineer job where I had a great mentor, support and incentives to get IT certificates. I wasn’t there for long due to personal circumstances, but that really launched my career and I’ve been getting better and higher paid jobs since.
I completely forgot I bought that once during a discount, but didn’t even have it installed. Started using it now, thanks.
This is why I decided not to host an instance in the end. Where I live, the laws are such that the hoster is responsible for the content hosted on their servers So if some shitbag posts CP that gets synced to my server and the authorities somehow find out, it would seriously fuck up my life.
All those rich pensioners know exactly what they are voting for and fully approve of it. They don’t mind pulling up the ladder behind them.
Lansweeper uses Belgian beers. Not quite mythological but I think that’s pretty funny.
That would be weirdly secure
Once the lawsuit about illegally lending out books is completely settled, I may consider donating again if they focus on their core activity, namely archiving of websites.
I want to support their archiving activities, not their misplaced piracy.
I’ve watched the first 3 episodes of season 2 with my wife, despite not liking season 1, but hey, it’s a Tolkien show so I will watch it regardless.
Half the time we were on our phones, reading articles or playing some game, because this show is slow and the dialogue is pretty pointless half the time. There are no characters we are really invested in. I guess Durin the younger comes closest, but man, the character building sucks in this show.
I will still watch it, because I’m a Tolkien nerd and I will watch it if only to bash it. I just wish there were fewer reasons to do so.
This redirects me to a porn post…
Edit: in the sync client it redirects me to some porn post. When I copy the link through the menu, it copies the correct link.
It’s the TIL community, not “This is super interesting”. You probably wandered in from the All feed, which is fine, but please do keep in mind the community you are commenting in.
What episode is this from?
He does a years worth of updates in like 3 or 4 weeks and then takes off for like 6 months. For me that’s acceptable. When he does get around to it, he pushes updates like the Flash on speed and fixes nearly all flagged issues in addition to adding new features that have been requested.
Dutch, German, French, English and what starts to become passable Slovak.
I think it means boring.
Wait, Wiz Khalifa is a dude? I always thought it was a woman…
Cross shoulder, right shoulder to left hip. A friend once told me that is how gay people carry their bags, but my self-consciousness is not fragile enough to give up comfort for the odd chance of being considered homosexual. Anyway, that and in summer shorts with a t-, polo- or regular shirt, in winter long trousers (not jeans usually) with sweater and a jacket. Nothing special, really.
I used to have my pockets always filled, but since a couple of years I have a leather bag (i.e. a manpurse or as my wife calls it: the gay bag) in which I have my work phone, keys, wallet, chewing gum, sunglasses, reading glasses, paper tissues and sometimes a drinking bottle. Also occasionally a book.
