How do you pronounce gift?

Calling a restaurant, in this economy?

Yep! Huge red flag.

so how would a smart person react to this?

I would just start working the same way they do. If you’re the only one with that work ethic and picking up their slack you’re probably enabling them to be lazy because they know it will get done. If things stop getting done in a timely manner someone higher up may notice and do something about it then hopefully everyone will have to start contributing again. Also might be worth talking to your boss about it.

I’m not sure how common this situation is, but I’d assume different places have different work cultures. Looking for another job is a good idea, hopefully you’ll find a place that’s a better fit.

Interesting. I come from a family that wasn’t very physically affectionate, and I hug most of my friends every time I see them.

I started going to raves shortly after high school in the late 90s. The culture is all about love. I hug all of my friends (male or female) when I see them. I tell them as often as possible that I love them too.

It’s a quote about investing but applies to software too.

I have some friends in Australia and I always send them pictures of squirrels when I see them. Got TONS where I live.

Are you using the YouTube Music app, or the YouTube app and loading the music section? I’ve never seen anything you’re describing.

I was just kind of shocked that their conscription age was so high considering the US draft age ends at their new low end. When I first read the headline I assumed they were going to start drafting 16 year olds.

Zelensky signed several laws on mobilization on April 2, one of which lowered the minimum age of compulsory military service from 27 to 25, making men eligible for the draft from age 25.

The current draft age in the USA is 18-25.

OK, Boomer.

Hear me out…

Fun fact, all it took to make a floppy disk double sided was a hole punch.

I’ve used Plex to run a media server from my home in the past, been a few years though. I believe you can still do that with the free version. Then you just need to set up Plex to wake on LAN so the computer you’re using for the media server will wake up when you want to watch something. This does require that the device is hardwired as WiFi doesn’t offer wake options.
