  • I remember that the Wicked Witch of the East (the one killed by Dorthy’s house) had enchanted the axe of a man who was a woodcutter named Nick Chopper. The axe would randomly dismember his own body when used. Some guy he knew would replace his body part when that happened, eventually replacing everything, which is how he became the tinman.

    But nobody ever said “Hey buddy, how about maybe buying a new axe since this one keeps chopping off things?”

    30ish. Working for a company that wouldn’t let me move to their QA department because they “needed me more where I was” even though the manager of QA wanted me. The QA department didn’t have anyone that knew how my department worked so they had never done any QA checks on us. Would have been a pay bump and no after hours support rotation. I got another job and they asked what they could do to avoid my leaving, and I said if they had done it then I wouldn’t be leaving.





  • This is the community chalkboard that was built following the 2017 clash of Unite the Right rally protesters and counterprotesters that ended up with a vehicle being driven into a crowd, killing one and causing severe injuries to 35 others, as well as 14 other injuries unrelated to the vehicular attack. 2 state troopers also died in a crash of a helicopter related to the events.





  • It’s absolutely allowed.

    It’s not as good as previous versions but I am running stock android and I have wifi power saving and phone (background) power saving modes available. I just checked and the estimate of time until zero percent battery goes from 22 hours to 28 hours with the node that limits backup processes, and that is with 59% on the battery.

    There was a power save mode on my old phone that made everything grey screen and stuff that was way better. I think I enabled it for a camping trip once and used like 20% battery in 3 days.
