Not like they really have a say. Record companies own the rights to their music

My sister doesn't talk specifically about patients by name, but she'll say things about what she told someone to do that they didn't, and the consequence was exactly what she told them. Stuff like that.
That's how they become doctors in the first place. I teach 30 premeds per semester
Excel can be it's own kind of awful, but using it with other people makes me want to jump off a bridge onto a rusty bed of nails. They move cells around, change the labels on columns, color cells with no benefit, change half a sheet to comic sans, they fucking send you back "bullshit-v1.0-good.xlsx” then ”garbage name v0.3_gooder.csv". Jesus fuck. The shitty thing has built in version control you ignorant fuck!
Probably not the answer you want to hear, but I just use steam and proton db. If something doesn't work or I can't fix it, it's the cost of freedom and I do without.
Bonus points you can be a moralistic douche when your friends give you a hard time. (You'll have to do without friends too.)
You know you are fucked with kindest regards
Idk what there is to complained about. They put 4 bus stops at one intersection
I always wondered how much of a difference the strap made. It's still top heavy AF.
Also the mandatory vcr shelf 🤣
No I have a full time position with insurance etc
Dude. Those stories all suck and make. To explain mine sounds like complaining about nothing, but I started the thread, so I'll tell it.
It's not exactly being laid off. I am a Visiting Assistant Professor at a liberal arts college. Our duties are primarily teach, and we work on one year contracts. I went into my chair's office to show her an online homework system I deployed on a 15 year old optiplex, because fuck the publisher. She was really impressed but that was when she gave me the news.
Now I've not had my contract renewed before (fucking assholes gas lit me about it last time), but this is where it becomes a layoff. The college didn't renew ANY of the VAP contracts.
The part that sucks about this is I love my department. Typically VAPs teach only intro courses, but they let me teach a junior level computational physics class. They understood I had a lot offer, and they gave me a shot. I love this department and it sucks to go.
I have one more shot. The provost really wants an interdisciplinary data analytics program. The head of it contacted me to teach a course. I emailed him telling I would but can't do it. Here's the kicker. As far as I know, I'm the only one who has done computational work with the humanities. I pitched him on creating a different position, he seemed interested, but this was last week.
I have my fingers crossed, but am not holding out hope. It's also worth mentioning. All of this comes from the buisiness and finance division. Academic affairs (the faculty) is pissed about it. The two have been feuding for a long time anf academic affairs almost always loses. I think it is a general lack of leadership from all levels and just generally paying too much to their own research, but that is another post haha
Humans have mouse movement that, on August 8, 2024, are very hard to reproduce. But just like regular captchas we are just teaching computers to do the same thing.
