They are all breads. Waffles have a higher fat content. American pancakes should have butter milk in them and must have baking powder so they rise. American pancakes usually don’t have savory versions like crepes or Asian onion pancakes. I’

Are they gray market services? Do they try to sell themselves as legitimate? Like a service to take down the photos your ex posted or are they straightforward about what they’re up to?

What does any of this have to do with theft? In most lawful places, if you dump source code and documents to take with you it’s not going to end well. https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2020/08/04/anthony-levandows

Get a DLP system in place for god sakes. I’ve even seen off shore people work from VMs only where they can’t download or store any file locally, much less dump everything to a USB stick.

Office layoffs are weird too. A friend worked for Oculus. One day they went to lunch and the manager muttered something quietly about the whole team being laid off then ran off. A team of like 10-15 people had to stand outside and wait for

I thought companies were doing this for old but useful chips? There are chip manufactures who buy old fabs and then do runs for chips that go in automobiles/boats/whatever. At least, it was my assumption.

Why pay your house off early? I stopped a while back and save the money instead. My wife and I both “pay” the full mortgage each but we save the other half for investments at the moment. We could pay off 80% of our house this year but I fee

You don’t have to turn off your phone 9-5 if you’re working on in a government facility. You aren’t going to be flagged as a terrorist because you turn your phone off.

Not true. I know folks who worked at an aircraft manufacturer with similar requirements and classifications. They had a locker they would put it in somewhere. Some people would grab them at lunch, leave, and put them back. They said it was

How realistic are the trucking sims? Do you actually get gas and unload? Highway stuff and regular driving sounds good but backing a trailer up to Walmart video game style sounds frightening.

Why do you have to specify a gender? In the US I would assume anyone could apply and capable candidates would be considered. Doesn’t mean you would get a job if they were really seeking a female or male. Not trying to go into a gender or

Why would you go through the trouble? Most people I worked with in restaurants would just find someone’s name/ssn to use, put they had 10 children, and never ever file taxes. I think there was a shady underground way to match illegal i

Agreed. I opened the Facebook website on my phone last weekend to search for a pic on a kayak fishing group. It was impossible to navigate my feed, it was all sponsored content, ads, and Facebook’s ads for its own content.

No one is breaking frameless windows unless they yank the door extremely hard when the battery is dead or I guess if you let it freeze over and don’t chip ice away. Never heard of it ever happening on the BMW forums. Only some random Canadi

My e46 BMW had frameless windows and it was built in 1999. I prefer frameless windows after having that car. My newer cars don’t, the windows are harder to clean and don’t look as good.

A ton of coupes, especially German cars, have the window roll down a slight bit when you open the door. It’s not just a Tesla issue. Paint issue are pretty common on Tesla but is a lot better on newer model years.

BMW makes an PHEV X5 with 40 miles of range and the normal straight 6 B58 motor. No small underwhelming I4 in a transverse FWD config. It’s between the Model X/Y in price. I have a kayak/bike trailer I use in the warm months. For
