I tried kagi a year or so ago and and instantly cancelled my sub and asked for a refund, which they granted. The results for every search was jammed with AI and "listicles" and all this shit that made the results essentially impossible to parse for me, and I'm supposed to pay for the pleasure. Hard pass.

What day do you think it is?

Graduated with a 1.7 GPA and a 32 on the ACT. My parents were a little dismayed.

IANAL but I don't think you can invoke the two party consent laws regarding noises loud enough to be disruptive to other people through walls and such. The recording consent laws typically apply to things like phone calls I believe.

Cool idea but from personal experience it's probably not worth much. I'm lucky enough to live on the top floor apartment and I've had multiple issues with multiple neighbors over the years. Maybe the leasing office where I live is worse than others, but they basically just ignore complaints.

I came home from a holiday a few years ago and woke up to a dog howling at 7:00am. This was new. This new dog (a husky, lol) would completely lose it's mind any time the owner, my downstairs neighbor, would leave it alone for any amount of time. Like the moment he shut the door. I work from home so it was difficult to focus while this dog would scream it's lungs out for hours at a time during the day. I complained to the office and left a note on the neighbor's door and got no response from either. After a few weeks I decided to handle it, stayed up to 3:00am, walked into my bedroom (directly above his bedroom) and jumped up and down as hard as I could for as long as I could. I bruised my heel on the floor but in the morning there was no barking and it stopped completely, which means it could have ended any time, they just didn't care. I have several other stories that all ended more or less the same way. No one gives a fuck until they are personally affected. You must fight fire with fire.

I quit my job a little over a year ago and it's been the best year of my life. Not sure if I'll ever be able to go back to daily stand up meetings.

It seems like you're unable to follow or understand the thread. Several posts up is this post:

>It is more like if you have to worry about masked goons breaking into your house and trying to kidnap you or your family members then maybe you can't trust the government either.

Referring to agencies such as ICE, I believe. Then the post I replied to said that it's not about trust, it's about effectiveness. Now you're telling me it's not about the government at all, but essentially for general purpose self defense, which still seems hypocritical coming from the gun control crowd. Also I'm not sure what an "artificially posed" question is.

vor 8 Monatendiscuss

The argument of their hypocracy stands though, doesn't it? If someone argues that people don't need guns because they would be ineffective against their government, it's strange that that person would buy a gun precisely to use against their government, right?

Ya I babel all sorts of things. I have sql queries saved in my notes for things like creating a user after I reset the project locally. Common rest queries. I create an orgmode heading for every ticket I pick up and often end up with rest and/or sql queries littered in the notes for testing and development and I can run them right from the notes and when I'm done with the ticket I can just copy/paste them into the pull request description to fill out the manual test steps for those reviewing.

vor 9 Monatendiscuss

I use emacs restclient all the time. I have requests saved in my orgmode notes that I can run with a simple C-c C-c. It's great.

When I said "bypass", I meant I ditched my kindle for a kobo and stopped buying books on amazon entirely.

There is a library built into the kobo you can purchase from, which I do for newer books. However, I've been on a classics kick and I pirate them tbh. Dumas doesn't mind.

vor 9 Monatendiscuss

I believe so, haven't tried it myself.

I bypassed it by buying a Kobo.
