You know, at some point, you gotta assume they'll eventually hire and fire/lose all the usable talent they have access to, and shit like this will prevent them finding new talent. Until some exec "invents" WFH as a perk...

Cheers! I certainly hope it will be. We're traveling the Aussie outback - want my wife and daughter to have a whole bunch of life experiences on this trip.

Awesome. Literally about to leave for a three week caravan trip. This will make a nice addition to the playlist for those relaxing arvos around the campfire.

A lot less VCDs and MP3s downloaded from FTP servers and BBSes.

Not sure if I’d bring it back, but I sure do miss the fun of playing Quake against my mates on public servers.

Hoping someone more in the know can explain this to me. Could commissioning an art piece feasibly mean you've paid for that art to be yours? Are there types of contracts available when commissioning art pieces where, conceivably, the person commissioning the piece gets the rights to use it for other things?

I'm not across the legal and ethical aspects of commissioning art pieces, and neither the article or the DA post gives any additional detail. Just wondering if the "Josh" who the artist named in their DeviantArt post be someone who was involved in the Nerf gun somehow...

No judgement here, and my wife has always said she never judges how anyone gives birth.

Question was asked. I answered. That is all.

Watching her give birth to our daughter. No drugs. Just natural child birth (in a hospital).

Years later, discussing childbirth with her (now) 20yo daughter (my step daughter), when asked why she did it that way for all three of her kids, she simply said it was something she wanted go go through, to feel connected to the experience of having her kids.

Awe and pride don't even begin to explain what I felt (and still feel) for my wife.

Not sure where you're located,but we have https://www.productreview.com.au here in Australia. I've occasionally found it useful.

Entirely self-hosted at home, on Proxmox. My Piped server (as well as many others) can only reach the internet via my Mullvad VPN.

Protesting is a fundamental democratic right

Peaceful protesting, sure. A lot of what we saw today was far from that.

Well, thanks for the fall down that particularly horrifying rabbit hole. I can only imagine the pain these women went through, given this was at a time that predates anaesthesia.

Unfortunately not. I need to park nearby in case I have to go to another one of our work locations out west. Public transport isn’t an option for those locations, and I need my vehicle.
