As I recall, Boston market had decent bacon, but it’s been forever since I’ve been.
The Baconator uses cheap fast-food/hotel bacon that tastes like air-fried disappointment. I’d rather a shake of bac-o-bits.


I agree, but I didn’t have the vacation days. I had just enough for the driving day and I think 5 or 6 days for an anniversary vacation in April.
What shocked me was there was hardly any discernible lightening of the schedule. I expected the week to be pretty light, but I wound up in 8+ hours worth of meetings and deployments every day except Christmas Day. I was given half of Christmas Eve off, but I’d already put in 8 hours by then anyway.


I always feel like I lose the trail. I barely ever even take lunch. I recently moved to a tech lead role and I barely have time to look at actual code. I still feel like taking time off is hard because I have to keep constant track of everything or I will completely lose the thread of everything that’s going on.
I did get Friday off to drive back home from a working vacation. It felt great. The vacation was stressful as hell because I had family stuff and work stuff intermingled. I literally was in my car fixing an issue with a deployment one minute, boarding an airboat to look at alligators the next, and an hour later I’m in a forgettable meeting in the back seat of the car as someone else drives home.
It wasn’t ideal but the vacation was booked before I had to change jobs and I went from being forced to take that week off to having to cover for 80% of my team. I’m definitely getting too old for this shit, but I enjoy it.
Why, I’d have calories for a lifetime! I would never need eat again.

I’m cis and they give me environmental stress. “Dude, I’m just trying to order lunch. Why are you sharing these inside thoughts with me?”
I wouldn’t trade it, but one bad thing about being an old white guy is assholes think I’m safe to unmask around, and Christ it skeeves me out. No, man, take those fucking thoughts to your grave.
I haven’t heard anyone use “Jap” outside my grandfather’s generation — and he fought a fucking war against them so no surprise he had some big feels there. But he’s also been dead about 25 years and I’ve never heard the word since.
But also I don’t hang out with racists, so what do I know.
What’s someone who doesn’t hate bass, they just hate your bass?


I don’t know about the game more than I’m reading here, but the quote I was responding to is “two real horses fuck.” If that’s not what they mean then, fair.


Wait, I was able to see your point all the way through, but what is wrong with two horses fucking? You can see that on 100 farms within 20 minutes of me. That’s probably the least weird thing I’ve heard about this game.


This is not a problem that has a technical solution. This requires a business solution—stop doing business with that vendor. Whatever service agreement exists between your companies is either not being enforced or was negotiated by a drunken mule.


I’ve had good luck keeping the home partition and just reinstalling the OS. Set it up with the same user name and home directory and you’re done.


Boolean Algebra is one of the few things I learned in electronics that I still apply in programming all the time.
