Did the concept of 9-5 included a 30 minute lunch and two 15 minute breaks?

    I get as many coffee breaks in the office as I want but it's not like I get up, grab a cup and then play on my phone while I drink my coffee for 15 minutes. I get up, grab a cup, maybe say hi to someone as it brews an instant cup, then go back to my desk and drink while I am working. But no one is shadowing down my neck saying I can't leave my desk until 10:15 and I need to be back by 10:30 or my pay is docked. Freedom and responsibility rather than strict time management and punishment.

    The point was that I was hoping they were empty, since carrying two cans full of gas while smoking a cigarette is pretty damn stupid, so I am hoping they are empty.

    Didn't want to judge a photo and say that lady is stupid when I couldn't be sure so I was giving the benefit of the doubt

    Those tanks look pretty new and shiney so I am assuming they are empty, but it still makes for a pretty poor picture to be carrying two Jerry cans while smoking 🤣

    Mosquitos aren't some special niche. Take out mosquitos and something else moves in to replace them, something that doesn't bite.

    There's nothing that solely depends on mosquitos, and wouldn't prefer to eat other things which mosquitos may be suppressing by existing themselves.

    It's a pretty ineffective strategy, but I'm just going off this one photo.

    If it's genetic, and the females can't get a blood meal, then they won't lay any eggs to pass on those genetics and just die.

    Then the ones without that gene will lay all their eggs and the next generation will be unchanged and they have to spend all that money again to do whatever they did which had no effect.

    Getting a rocket like this would probably allow for satellite to be built with materials other than aluminum because the cost goes down per launch since the rocket is reusable and the payload is so high the cargo doesn't have to be built as light as possible.

    If they stop selling it, they stop buying it from suppliers and then the suppliers need to find a way to decrease their costs to make it so stores buy their products again. Otherwise they go out of business, so they will find a way.

    I have a love/hate relationship with workplace safety. I love a safe workplace, but many areas have stupid regulations and requirements just for the sake of looking like they're safe or because they don't want the liability of customizing things for certain situations which just makes things harder/uncomfortable for workers.

    Saw a work crew the other day with hardhats on. Working outdoors, doing survey type work in an area with absolutely nothing overhead. It was completely unnecessary but required to meet "safety" rules.

    That's just one example.

    I may actually get the 13 if it does indeed have wireless charging simply because I don't want to risk the 14 not having wireless charging lol was going to wait for the 14 if this one didn't have wireless. I have too many accessories for it it would be a shame for them to go to waste

    How is it not a legal obligation? Aren't reserves technically federal land under the law? If my landlord didn't provide me with drinkable water I'm pretty sure that would be a legal issue.

  • My PC constantly freezes if I'm not playing a game or have a game running. ✅ If I'm playing a game, it's fine. ✅ If I have a game running in the background while doing other stuff, it's fine. ❌ If I leave my PC while playing a game and the lock screen pops up, it will freeze. ❌ If I do anything other than gaming, such as browsing the web or digital art, PC will freeze. ❌ If PC goes to sleep overnight, it will freeze. The frozen PC will typically show no error code and display will show "no input" until I hard reset. If I hard reset, it often won't successfully turn back on unless I move the mouse while it's resetting, otherwise it will freeze again on the windows loading screen. Sometimes I will actually get a blue screen with the error code of DPC_Watchdog_Error or something like that. Anyone know where I should look first to try and fix this? It's been happening for weeks now and it's driving me crazy. I can't figure it out.

    What the hell is this? Am I missing something?

    Just bought a ROG STRIX 850w PSU and it came with this monstrosity of a cable that I've never seen before. The two ends are entwined between eachother in a way that you can't un-entangle without popping an end piece off Is this an actual real cable design or is it mis-manufactured? It offends my sensibilities.

    Hello, I am looking for some advice to help me out at my job. Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask. So, basically my boss is a complete technophobe and all of our data is stored across multiple excel files in drop box and I'm looking for a way to change that into a centralized database. I know my way around a computer but writing code is not something I have ever been able to grasp well. The main issue with our situation is that our workers are all completely remote, and no I don't mean work from home in the suburbs from a home office. They use little laptops with no data connection and go out gathering data every day from a variety of locations, sometimes not even cell coverage. We need up to 20 people entering data all day long and then updating a centralized database at the end of the day when they get back home and have internet connection. It will generally all be new entries, no one will need to be updating old entries. It would be nice to have some sort of data entry form in drop box and a centralized database on our local server at head office which pulls the data at the end of each day. Field workers would also need access to certain data such as addresses, contact info, maps, photos, historical data, etc. but not all of it. For example the worker in City A only needs access to the historical data from records in and around City A, and workers in City B only need access to records involving City B. Is there any recommended options for software which can achieve this? It needs to be relatively user friendly and simple as our workers are typically biology oriented summer students, not programmers.

If there are no new messages the app crashes. Can make it crash multiple times in a row.

    Hi, me and my cousins had a good thing going for a long time playing Catan but we are looking to shake things up. We have played Catan regularly for over s year, but find that it's getting a little stale. We are looking for a game that requires a lot of strategy, planning, teamwork but also betrayal and backstabbing, yet also not take half an hour to set up and dismantle. In Catan we love that the board changes every game and therefore the strategy, but found that once we got to the castles and knights expansion there was one strategy that beat out all the rest which sort of deflated the fun (first person to get science bonus seemed to win 90% of the time). Any other board games out there for beginners that don't take forever to set up and put away? Not huge into role playing, but never say never I guess.
