Wow that’s a smug mug shot, holy moly.

That’s someone who does NOT think they just got caught saying the quiet part.

Luckily it is not too hard to make my friend! Whip yourself up a batch tonight.

The fact that he was repeatedly moving them away from each other while checking that they were still asleep, plus finally returned drunk??

“They were staying up too late and I wanted to go to bed” my ASS

What if I am too stupid to understand? Can you explain it to my dumb ass?

This article is such a treasure trove. Thank you!

Sent a relatively new and somewhat nervous co-worker a “grandpasimpsonleave.gif” responding to the 8 billionth mutual emergency of the day followed immediately by “I kid, I kid, we’ll fix it! 😉 [Relevant follow up question]?”

Guess which of those two messages was the last one unaffected by the outage? Yep. I got to watch her devolve into a panic as her messages reached me and my responses didn’t get sent to her, and THEN delivered in the worst order/selection possible. Felt like the more critical the message, the less likely to send.

And! She’s on the other side of the continent and all her location’s phones are through teams also! And it was time sensitive.

Rough Friday.

Yeah those fines were a joke. $140k over two years for a place that likely charges that much per year for each of its 170 residents? They don’t care.

It may not be CSI quality, but it is FBI quality! Those EXACT tests and types of matches were how they identified the golden state killer and identify hundreds of John/Jane Does every year these days.

Turi King, who worked on the Richard III identification, has done very great and approachable lectures on those tests and how they’re used in forensic genetics. Highly recommended watch BTW, and several are available on YouTube - she has one on just those tests and how they can be used as well as discussing their strengths and weaknesses with examples.

The “I’m 3.2% Native American” stuff is (mostly) BS, but if it’s identifying specific matches, it’s pretty strong evidence. It’s not definitively HIM until they test him specifically, but it is the exact sort of thing that should put you on a suspect list and warrant him spitting in a cup, yeah.

The only way I could see it NOT being him is if he was using a close relative as the source, but I’m not sure why he wouldn’t say that once challenged. Technically, that would have fulfilled the requirements of “anonymous” and “unknown to the mother” he promised.

There’s a lot of “these allegations will be proven false in court” going on in this article.

My dude, there’s DNA evidence. What allegations are there to disprove??

And why does it matter that it was before he worked at your clinic?? Like if someone had been found to be groping patients or stealing at their last identical job, there’s no reason to be concerned they might have continued to do so while they worked for you?? No ‘we’ll look into this and be sure nothing untoward happened’??

“This was before he worked with us, and now we have safeguards in place, by which we mean we’re aware he’s a pervert and we watch him like a hawk, or whatever legal equivalent will absolve us of any wrongdoing for providing him with a target rich environment in exchange for the prestige.”

Also they were HORRIFICALLY unreliable, to the point where my mechanic’s actual quote was “Folks, I’m not in the habit of talking myself out of a $10,000 paycheck, but this car is not worth it.” 30 minutes before we walked in his door it was working fine, by the time he went to drive it to the bay it wouldn’t start, and never did again.

It wasn’t even paid off yet.

To say nothing of the fact that one had to drop the engine to get to the alternator, the electrical blew itself out twice in the 4 years we owned it, very few of the features worked with any competence, and we just got our 3rd or 4th safety recall for it (or whatever is left of the parts at the scrapyard).

Consumer Reports rated its reliability as a six - not out of ten, but out of ONE HUNDRED.

Absolute lemons.

needing to ask people what 3rd party chat service they prefer

Yeah Signal’s great and all, but my spouse’s family refuses to use anything but WhatsApp, half my family uses FB Messenger while the other half use Discord (and they are feuding about it), the older folks in my hobby group refuse to learn anything but the default text on their phone (that group chat is an unmanageable NIGHTMARE), and anything from work uses teams…except the US folks who use slack, and now my friends want to get me on Signal, too? Relevant XKCD.

The solution to my problem is not yet another messaging app. I just want ONE inbox!

I’ve been pretty happy with Beeper so far. There are some features that aren’t quite as good as using each app natively, yet, but I think they’re off to a great start considering the sheer scale and variety of interfaces they’re working with. It even gives me tools to deal with the hobby chat anarchy, and now I can send default SMS messages from my computer!

To anyone reading the summary, this does not do it justice.

Community ideas???

The No Name ice cream wafers are also the best around, and the cheapest to boot!

We were actually surprised that not only were they just as good at like ⅓ the price, they were WAY better.

You can get a giant pack of them for literally the price of a checkout line candy bar.
