Haha, tried cancelling Paramount+ after I finished Lower Decks, got offered half-off for next two months. Should I take? Jan 19, 2022 at 3:47 PM

    Having flashbacks of cancelling AOL. Every time I tried to cancel they gave me two months free. I think I got a year of free AOL out of that

    I really liked the first season of discovery, season 2 was off and on, it had its moments, but starting with season 3 it really started going downhill.

    I have a dozen people who have "friended" me who all have these 500+ networks, I've never met them, but it seems like we have common connections so I figure maybe this is just potential networking? or they just spam everyone and it's a numbers game

    ^ Most just trying to boost their numbers, was my experience. Most were in fields so different from mine there'd be no other point having me in their networks.

    I put my LinkedIn URL on my resume so when I apply for a job, I can tell if a recruiter of a certain company looked at my profile.

  Hi purr1n - new forum member, long time lurker. Not sure if this is appropriate channel, but I'm interested in getting in the loop of any Grado RS2x/RS1x loaner program. If that's something that is in the works, can you let me know how to get in? Thanks!

    I don't feel bad for her. I would like some accountability for the investors, tech bros, and all that who talked her company up, called her the next Steve Jobs, etc., when any due diligence at all would have raised serious questions. There's a real culture of bullshit in tech which is basically market manipulation for quick cash.

    She created a $7bln fraud out of whole cloth, with no scientific expertise, then did everything she could to discredit whistleblowers and the press. Sociopath is right. Sympathy she does not deserve.

  Hey, do you have the capacity to measure the capsule I gave you? Doesn't need to be absolute, just need to verify a relative change.

    I'll send you a free replacement if the test breaks the capsule, but I need to verify something externally.

    I suspect it's different this time. We don't have the full picture. However I suspect great internal turmoil. The Evergrande thing could be the start of the shit hitting the fan. The communists have staved off things for so long with centralized state control... but laws of the universe cannot be violated.

Ears validate the measurements, not the other way. Well, sometimes the measurements keep us honest.
