Nonplussed…that takes me back.

I was educated in a private school for British ex-pats run by a very old and very posh couple. This was the early eighties and they were already in their seventies, so definitely from a different era. Because of this and because of the size of our school (my entire year consisted of nine kids) we ended up quite odd. Up until highschool we had a mild but “poshy” London accent and words like vexing, nonplussed, providential, etc., peppered our vocabulary. Then my family moved to Louisiana followed by Texas and that shit went right out.

Also, the word is aluminium. It is NOT aluminum!

So many resources spent on services that are objectively not great. I have yet to see any output from Gemini or ChatGPT that sells me on the service.

Delicious slime.

Literally on the original post.

Fresh cherries, cherries from a can, or the little jarred cherries they put on ice cream sundaes. I need this information to properly set my levels of revulsion.

I put the lawyers under Oracle since they are the physical manifestation of the corporation. Think of Oracle as “crack” and Oracle Sales as “crack dealers”. Each horrible in their own special way.

The only thing worse than Oracle are Oracle sales people.

September 12, 2001. I accidentally shut down an entire production plant. Management didn’t even get mad. They closed the plant for the day, I kicked off the boot cycle (takes hours for the system to be ready for production again) and everyone went home to be with their families. Nobody’s head was on right that day anyway.

EDIT: A few years later I was testing some BigIP configs on a tertiary unit when suddenly the entire e-commerce site went down. Apparently this unit used to be a primary before being demoted and someone (not me) forgot to disable replication, so when I wiped all the rules from my “test unit” I inadvertently wiped all the rules to the production units. Technically it wasn’t my fault but it was still an “oh fuck” moment.

I get it. I misread the post earlier. If unblurring the background was useful to uncover anyone helping her during an interview then maybe, but it’s not. We do a lot of these and my clients have requirements like what I wrote before (when I misunderstood), but I have never come across someone objecting to a privacy setting like that. It’s fucking weird.

Oops. Thanks for the heads up. I completely misread. That’s what I get for multi-tasking.

EDIT: Misread the post like an idiot.

Can you give me a few examples (links)/to what I should look for if I decide to go through the effort of swapping the old ones out?

Well, this is anecdotal, but I bought an older home (circa 1990’s) with dimmers already built in. We went through a number of LED bulbs and most flickered and some did not.

In my experience some brands of “dimmable” LED lights flicker and some do not. If you problems with flickering lights, try a different brand on that socket as an experiment. It might be the quality or type of components used.

That’s not true at all, for Linux users or vegans. The problem is that there are people some that feel a sense of superiority because they use Linux or are vegan and they just won’t shut the fuck up about it.

That made my month. Thank you for sharing!

If you meant for going bald, then yes.
