Brackets in a quote denote a change to what was actually said. In a perfect world, with quality journalism, they’re used to summarize or make the quote flow better in the piece without changing the intent or meaning of the quote

In this case, they very well could’ve changed “won’t be” to “will be”

I don’t expect that to be the case here, but it’s possible.

Also, using an ellipsis inside brackets like this: “[…]” Is an intentional omission by the author of the piece.

A lot of service workers don’t get New Years Day off, despite it being a federal holiday in the US.

The dollars must flow, or something like that.

You should post this to the Sbubby community

I’ve told the wife I can’t watch these shows because of how bad the tech always is, and I can’t stop myself from losing suspension of disbelief when something like this happens

Middle bottom takes your medicine for themselves and simultaneously tries pushing more MLM shit

This picture has been jpeg-ified so many times that the details are illegible now

I’m pretty sure it was a Cisco if I’m not mistaken, but I could be remembering wrong

As a teen in the 2010s, my first GPU was an Nvidia 680m in a Sager (Clevo) laptop.

That thing could power through just about anything I’d throw at it. Good times.

Lucky you lmao

I still see them once every so often

In fact, I went onsite to a customer who wanted a new PC set up because the old one “wouldn’t boot”. Sure enough the cable was sticking out of the monitor at about a 15deg angle. I pushed the VGA cable in a bit extra hard and it came right back.

I was out of there in about 30min.

Thanks, I hate it

100%

You never quit RS, you just take a break

Oh to start OSRS blind again like I was a kid (just RS at the time)

Good luck with the new account!

Denver to St Louis through KS and MI is up there

Doesn’t help that getting from West to East on i70 through Kansas City is a nightmare after driving that long.

Spoiler: i70 doesn’t just run through the city like one would think.

Nothing in the right quantity, I use it in my own cooking when I need more umami in a dish.

There are old studies out there that said it was a problem ingredient (hence “no MSG” labels all over different foods), but those have been largely debunked due to racial bias.

In excess, the MSG flavor tends to linger, which can be annoying sometimes.

Mmm MSG fries

(Don’t get me wrong I like them too but let’s be honest here, they almost have as much MSG as KFC fries)

Tossed $6 your way on Buy Me A Coffee yesterday!

Excited to get into the beta

This is actually an insane take

Furries at large don’t care about the e2ee or security features

They care that:

1. their friends are the platform

2. custom stickers of their fursonas are easy to make and import

That’s basically it. Telegram has become entirely ubiquitous in the fandom. No one group/ideology claims it as their own.

Sincerely,

a progressive leftist furry who uses TG

The furry community is in absolute shambles

Valid, I’m just not a fan of them personally

Too bad fresca uses artificial sweeteners

I used to like the old fresca, too

“learned some things like Linux, command line, docker, and networking/pfsense” “I don’t consider myself technical”

Don’t sell yourself short, I work in IT and have colleagues on our helpdesk who would struggle endlessly with those concepts.

I hereby dub you a tech person, like it or not, those skills can and do pay the bills.
