“Show your employee ID to take advantage of your employee benefits” or smth like that

Oh boy. I should proof read before posting lmao.

Fixed

I’m curious how many menus deep the car wash mode is too

I’ve been running HA for two years and barely understand YAML, let alone the main YAML config, which is keeping me from accomplishing a few things I want to do, like taking better control of my air filter.

Thanks. It’s a tough time to be unemployed but I have a good network of folks that want to help. 3.5 months in I am starting to lose hope and am looking at backup plans (unemployment runs out after 6 months), but I finally got a positive result from a role that I’m actually pretty interested in with the University of Washington. It would be a very solid job and up to a 20% pay increase depending on what I could negotiate. Fingers crossed.

I got laid off in December and haven’t had a single god damn good lead since then. I’m looking forward to this question in any interviews I manage to land, hopefully within the next 10 fucking years.

I feel personally attacked right now

Exactly. That’s who his advice is for, but he markets himself as a guru to the poor and they gobble his bullshit right up and spend all their money on his financial peace university that’s just a book full of anecdotes of wealthy people learning how to do what the poors have been forced to do all along.

I 100% use GPT to write every cover letter. I’m searching for a job and don’t have the capacity to write a unique cover letter for every role. So I’ve got a huge thread with all my work history, resumes, writing examples, achievements, and a whole litany of other things about me that I go to and tell GPT to write my cover letters with. I proofread them, make edits, and send.

Yea. I have managed to never carried debt. Without that, what’s this guy got to offer me? In fact, the only thing the guy has to offer is the simplest financial advice there is: spend less than you earn.

But then a poor person comes along and says they can’t and his only advice is ‘earn more money’. Because it’s that easy, obv.

The guy is an out of touch chode who had some privileged upper middle class kid think he was the financial messiah once for saying ‘use a budget’ and let that go to his head.

ADHD, major depressive disorder, and bipolar 2.

Yea. Tired. All the time.

I’ve been dabbling with Ubuntu for my home assistant and my Plex media server and every damn time I find myself asking ‘why isn’t there a GUI for that?!’

I’m dead

I get where you’re coming from I think. I disagree that it’s less secure but I’m not here to argue, just to understand.

Without speaking for you, is it the fact that it could be triggered accidentally (though rather unlikely) that makes you feel it’s less secure?

As far as the technology goes, it’s the same as using Apple Pay from your phone which is pretty secure. So the only difference I see is the lack of biometric with each instance of using your watch, though it does require your PIN or phones biometric each time it needs to be unlocked, it just effectively keeps that token until the watch is removed from your wrist.

Just curious to know which watch has that laborious of a process. No judgement here.

My Apple Watch is a double click and my default card pops right up. Ezpz.

What watch do you use?

I double click my power button and Apple Pay is there. Way more convenient for me than to pull my wallet out of my purse, pull my card out, wave or insert it, put it back in the wallet, and put the wallet back in my purse.

It’s not for everyone, but I definitely find it more convenient.

Using your debit card to pay is convenient, but it can also mean you spend more is, I believe, a sentiment that was passed around when cards started being widely accepted.
