I use Brave with ads, trackers and pop-ups blocked, and it often breaks sites. That's right, once you assert a minimum level of privacy, today's internet doesn't work. Anyway, might be worth trying a different browser with different settings.Quote:

The arms on desk chairs make it impossible to pull the chair in to the desk. And who ever uses their desk chair arms for anything? I'm not fucking Captain Kirk, I have to type on a damn keyboard all day. I removed them on my desk chair at home and it's the platonic ideal of office chairs now, but I'm in a co-working space today wrestling with these dumb chair arms.
Your outrage is justified. Damn our lives :smile:Quote:

How come when I post one thing I get the 45 second error, but if I actually do make another post within 45 seconds, it posts just fine WITH NO FUCKING ERROR MESSAGE!!!
Example--this one.
so weird how these bugs impact different people. I have not once received that 45 second thing, but probably 75% of my posts double post.Quote:

Ditto
I never have these problems. I think it's user error. :tongue:
Customers that don't do things to help themselves annoy me. When they cost themselves money by not hitting free shipping thresholds and then whine about it is fucking frustrating. A couple of times a week... Arrggghhh
This is something I can relate to directly. On the other hand my company started charging a shipping fee on every single delivery so I guess I’m currently more annoyed by my employer than my customersQuote:

I guess we’re lucky the winter moisture was pretty good and the whole state isn’t on fire…knock wood.

Dude you are cursed! I have yet to have one go bad, and they are everywhere in the house. The only place I don't use them is my beacon for some irrational reason. They've been flawless. Ironically I found 2 leaky duracells in my desk drawer yesterday, just sitting there oozing. Never been used.
Seriously, use anything, anything but Duracell or the crappy rebranded Duracells (Kirkland)
The cheap crap that comes stock with remotes, etc. No problem! But Duracell...

FedEx was supposed to deliver today, when I was working from home. They punted to tomorrow. Since I’m on the road now, I tried to reschedule for Thursday, when I’ll be home again. They wanted $5.55 for that. They can suck it, and send a driver to waste his time with a door tag tomorrow.
