They made fun of Trump for damn near 3 seasons, the fuck you talking about?

Yep, updated Sunday night after I pushed off the notifications for months. I feel like they punish you for making them do it too, because it turned my alarm off and I was late to work because of it. Funny how my last phone, an S8 never had the issue of me having to unlock my phone to initialize start up after restart.

Surprisingly, some of the most vocal Republicans are against this. MTG and Tucker Carlson have both come out against it. I saw that Tucker interviewed Ted Cruz yesterday about the Iran situation and I had to listen to it. I really can't stand Tucker but I have to admit he grilled Cruz in a way I really admired, making a fool out of him simply by asking to explain the reasoning behind his viewpoints. Thoroughly entertaining, highly reccomend.

Christian Bale is my go to lead actor, just a phenomenal actor with a crazy range. Dude played Batman, Ken Miles, and Dick Fucking Cheney.

Favorite secondary actor goes to Walton Goggins by far. He just elevates every show or movie he's in. Uncle Baby Billy is one of the best characters to come out of this century.

Actress is probably Emma Stone, wasn't a huge fan of Poor Things but she was great in it. I mainly like her for some of her older comedy movies.

Whole heartedly agree.

His Black Mirror episode was also probably the most fucked up episode, and not in the fucked up way I want my Black Mirror episodes.

Once you start learning about some newer iterations of Christianity like Mormonism and Seventh Day Adventism, where there are actual accounts of their prophets, you do realize how these people were either really good con artists or just insane.

Alright can someone explain how to get to this level. I've been playing for like a month and have gotten up to black stake on a few decks. How the hell do you get 44 spectral cards or even 44 consumable slots, not to mention almost 150 cards in your deck. Seems like I'm missing something cause this doesn't even seem possible.

Add The HU to that lineup and thank me later.

 

So recently my work, a mid sized engineering firm, decided to start upgrading their IT security. The rumor is that we have potential DOD work coming our way. Over the past few months there has been multiple company decided changes to our 2 factor authentication mobile app. I willingly installed the app on my phone over a year ago because without it I could no longer use my laptop out of office and couldn't use Microsoft teams or outlook on my phone.

So about 2 months ago my company updated the 2FA policy and because of that, my phone is no longer compliant on the basis of it being to old. The initial consequences were that I lost access to email and teams on my phone, not a big deal because I prefer not to think about work on my off hours. Fortunately, I could still use a txt message to 2FA into my laptop incase I did need to work from home.

Fast forward to last Friday, our IT director sent out an email saying they were again making changes to the 2FA policy over the weekend. Among other things, the changes included removing the txt 2FA option, meaning I could no longer access anything work related as soon as I step out of my office building. Sounds like a dream right, and a good excuse to fall back on.

Come Monday, I find out that I need to use the 2FA app to access our payroll software to fill out my timesheet, even when I am inside the office sitting at my desk. Luckily, I filled out my previous weeks timesheet on Friday. So next Monday, as far as I'm aware, I will not be able to fill out my timesheet to get paid.

My situation: I will admit I am stubborn about buying new electronics, my phone is a Samsung S8 that I bought in 2017 when it was brand new. I currently see no benefits of anything the new phones have to offer but the day my phone decides to die, I will gladly walk into a store and buy a brand new android phone. My work does not provide cell phones and has refused my request to compensate me for my work related phone usage. I have been very vocal to my manager and bosses that they cannot force me to buy a new phone just to continue doing my job efficiently, and now it seems doing my job at all. The responses I have recieved were very indirect and not at all helpful to my situation. Really, I just want them to give me an ultimatum or some other option. I am not willing to lose my job over this but I dont want to give in and buy a new phone just so I can click OK on an 2FA app.

So Lemmy, how should I approach this ticking time bomb?
