Man, what a joke. It's child's play... you got people who actually kill someone and they're out in four years if they play their cards right and stay on everyone's good side, but for a poor guy like me, it's a lifetime ban. Just unfair.

My esteemed and highly quoted colleague Douglas, sorry, James is just the one delivering the bad news from headquarters.

Thanks everyone for the support, and a huge shoutout to my good friend James Chavez91 for putting in the work 👍

What can I even say? Honestly, maybe the best way to put this is to take a page out of the book of that legendary mathematician Alan Turing: 21 8 14 30 21 8 5 8 22 26 (shift right 1) ☕

Thanks, man, I appreciate you, my friend

Hey there, mod team and supermod squad

So, I've been stuck with this "partial" status over in the Men's Corner for about four years now... any chance we could finally get that cleared up?

Thanks!

you're gonna need to get that new version of the software installed (like synesis and whatever else is running)

Susan Nguyen4 said:Hey there, I couldn't find an existing thread about this so I figured I'd start my own...
I'm on the hunt for a new router—something that lets me run two distinct Wi-Fi networks. I need one for my private home use and a separate one specifically for guests staying at my rental property. Ideally, I want total isolation; nothing on the guest network should be able to "see" or access any of my personal devices. My current AT&T router actually has an option for two networks, but I haven't quite wrapped my head around what it actually does. From what I can tell, the only difference is a different SSID.
On top of that, I really need the ability to cap the bandwidth on the guest network, since my internet speed is honestly pretty abysmal as it is. Or, if capping isn't an option, at least something that allows me to set traffic priorities...
So, I’m wondering what kind of gear I should actually be looking to buy? I'm open to any and all suggestions. To recap, these two features are my non-negotiables: complete network separation and bandwidth limiting.🙂

See, this is the absolute dealbreaker right here, but everyone just jumped straight to obsessing over the download speeds...

Hey there

Is it possible to go from a quark to a strange quark? (just to clarify: I mean the elementary particle kind, you know, like up, down, charm, strange, top, and bottom)

Thx

Yeah, you can. Check out this Nica link for more info on this post.

Man, dude... that is some heavy stuff right there... I'm actually still shaking a little bit

So basically, yesterday I'm heading out, all geared up as usual—got my smokes, my laptop, the whole nine yards... just sitting there reading some article when everything goes sideways. And why does it go sideways? Because I didn't bother to shred my business into tiny little pieces first. You know, makes it easier to flush down the drain and honestly, just more satisfying while you're doing your business...
And then... bam. Right in the middle of it, my wife starts pounding on the door, yelling that she's desperate to pee and telling me to hurry up because she's about to lose it in her pants
And what am I supposed to do? Use logic? Like, why should I waste water when she’s just gonna come in and pee anyway? It's way more efficient to wash the mess away with hot water than cold, right? So I step outside, and she's standing there looking absolutely unhinged, practically screaming at me like I'm some kind of idiot. Everything stinks, there's smoke everywhere, it's a total disaster zone
And then I try to explain to her that we really need to be conserving resources, and that she actually did me a favor by rushing me so I could finish faster... yeah, right. As if she'd care about that one bit 🤦

Women, man... they are seriously wasteful with the most precious resource of all: water...

Hey, neoncrane64, I saw that thing you posted about the noise levels jumping up at the scrap yard... honestly, makes me think I should probably spill what went down with my car yesterday. 🤦

man, I'm the complete opposite of that... I just wanna get from A to B without any extra walking involved.

coastalwolf87 said:--just walking on the skin

Listen, my lovely colleague coastalwolf87, if I may jump in here for a sec. See, when someone goes for a walk, they aren't just "walking on their skin," they're moving their whole body—which includes the entire skin as part of the organism, not just some tiny little surface layer.

I remember this one time I was basically dancing on the edge of what's legal

There’s actually a bunch of different ways you can go about walking:
- just pacing back and forth
- wandering around with zero plans
- strolling along with your hands tucked behind your back
- or, you know, floating through outer space

loneskipper77 said:Is everyone here just unemployed or what? Like, does nobody actually have a job?
Hmm... sounds like a lot of people around here are chasing that classic American dream of doing absolutely nothing. ☕

I'm still grinding away at my job, for what it's worth. 🤦

Man, you're actually more useful than I am when I'm just staring at the washing machine waiting for a cycle to end 🙏

So my boss calls me the other day, right? Tells me I gotta be there at the crack of dawn tomorrow because apparently everything else is "all set." Like, okay, thanks for the heads up... she says the furniture, the armchairs, even those big decorative planters are all sorted. Honestly, I thought I had my part done, just waiting to get on site and knock it out. But nope. Now I have to head back in tomorrow to finish up the network wiring and the IP phone setup, which pushes the whole schedule back a day. Just my luck, right? Right before Christmas, when everyone is already losing their minds and everything is going sideways everywhere.

unpacked an entire office's worth of IT gear
loaded it all up in the van
dragged everything out at the new spot
got it all set up and ready to go
only to realize the IT guy from the service company never actually showed up, so there's zero internet
called the guy back
and absolutely lost my mind on him, just went off on him big time

rapidtrucker78 said:I mean, what’s even wrong with clones?

honestly, the mods would probably just shut 'em down immediately... plus, they look a little washed out, you know? kinda lacking color.

Are you trolling me or are you actually being serious right now?

So... look, after buying and selling a few times (once working with RE/MAX and once just doing my own thing), I've come to the conclusion that the market basically levels itself out. A house is going to sell—or be bought—at its actual value regardless. All those prices you see on Zillow are just people's wishful thinking, not what's actually happening in the real world.

thanks, lady 👍
