i've been on the receiving end of his cunty-ness in person as a lowley tech support minion that he was forced to work with, as well as several other well known pioneers; i can tell through this thread that dessalines is an angel by comparison and i've never met them.

you should watch the video reviews on those cars; they blow american cars out of the water and it makes sense why our automakers would do everything in their power to prevent us from getting access to them.

Every single time I see this type of conversation come up it’s always about the more privileged higher paying white collar work.

this is true and i know i because i'm one of those workers while my siblings aren't and only my pay increases significantly each time while theirs remain stagnant.

on the other hand recruiters hate "job hoppers" and you'll end up with more gate keepers to jobs the more often you do it; while my siblings barely get any questions when they have to switch jobs.

my work experience is almost entirely 2 & 3 year tenures and (anecdotally) companies are making vesting a bigger part of the compensation package and getting rid of pto to counteract people's attempts at improving their livelihoods.

if you see a vesting heavy or "unlimited pto" compensation packages on offer; they don't expect to keep you for very long.

moving every 2 years or so is clearly the best strategy for career advancement.

it's a double edged sword in my experience from to talking to recruiters who seem to have an irrational hatred of "job hoppers" and they're, anecdotally, a majority.

however it is still true that you'll get higher pay as i did; but be sure to spend a LOT of time keeping your connections alive because most recruiters (still anecdotally) will red flag 2 & 3 year tenure-ships; effectively gate keeping you away from many jobs.

if it weren't for being in a relatively lucrative and in demand field (software development); i would be screwed because of those recruiters.

due to the bonkers high tariffs.

and they're winning. the bonkers high tariffs on brand new $10k EV'S have guaranteed that americans and western europeans will never get affordable EV's and only the rich will have them.

i've created my own wifi router & firewall using pci passthrough for the network card to a kvm/libvirt/qemu virtual machine running pfsense hosted on an ubuntu server and it works well enough; but the pci id changes roughly every other reboot.

i was thinking of adding another hack in the form of a bash script to launch the vm and then modify the virtual machine's xml if there's a problem and then attempt another relaunch; but this entire exercise has taught me the hard way that hack-on-top-of-hack-on-top-of-hack is impossible to remember and there will come a point where something will break and i'll spend a couple of days relearning how to build my own router again.

any advice on how to make it all more mindless and/or graceful?
