   Seems odd that logging in always fails the first time and succeeds the second after they "fixed" this thing.

     No, today's update did not fix.
     
     Not a big deal, but it wastes my time.

   Hmm. I've noticed that no one ever seems to have a positive impression of #IA. I've worked for months at a time in some neighboring states ( #NE, #MO, #KS ) and never had a similar impression about them. What's especially bad about Iowa?
   
   (I've also worked in #MS and #LA, so I might just have a rosier view.)

   @dude @mangeurdenuage@loadaverage.org I've never been a fan of these FCC bandwidth auctions. The #FCC was created to steward radio frequencies and other electronic communications for the benefit of the nation and its people, but auctions distract them from that duty by making them seek to sell more and more frequency allocations to the highest bidding corporations. In this way,…

   The #Minnesota sad tears are always a bit eye-rolly for me. The Kings haven't won in 66 years, and that's just looking at the #NBA. However, I guess if you just look at pro sports, and you just look at the city level. #Minneapolis - #StPaul is pretty close to the bottom, and two of the ones below are Canadian (though I guess other than the NFL, all of the US major team sports h…

     So it looks like there is still a Sacramento Kings NBA team. The arena I drove past looked abandoned, so either they really need to do some work or they have another one.

     that was a typo in the reply. You'll notice I mentioned the Kings in the second sentence of my original post.
     
     The point of my reply was that the website had left Sacramento off the list despite the Kings. I don't know if they left any other cities else off, or why they would choose to do that, but it's funny that the one team I decided to highlight was at least one of the teams they left off.

   $EMPLOYER's internal training programs are pretty poor, so individual TechTeam members write training guides and distribute them to the people they've worked with (currently or in the past).

   I was telling @bthall / @bthall@nulled.red how tough it is that the kid ( #sonTwo, current 32 years old ) who called almost every day for the past sixteen years is working so much that we're not talking more than once every week or two.

      @silkevicious @mangeurdenuage In the US, we often call that "under the table work", and it is very illegal. (I won't pretend it is enforced often, but when it is, the penalties can be onerous.)
      
      I assume most countries frown on that, because governments love their taxes.

    Getting way too aggravated about people pushing their preferred distros and desktops on a Linux newbie. They're going to tell this kid to do something and he'll eff up the machine he uses for schoolwork. No one is nearby, so none of his advisors will be able to help.

      @mangeurdenuage Updating #Gentoo daily or even monthly should not cause problems, but six months, nine months, a year and now you may have problems.
