I would start to suspect my employers of bank robbery.

Organize, O toilers, come organize your might;
Then we’ll sing one song of the workers’ commonwealth
Full of beauty, full of love and health.

I’ve seen an elderly man working at the HEB I frequent. He looks frail. I wouldn’t want to be bagging groceries at his age.

Have you shopped eBay for used switches?

It’s WA when it’s used as a particle and HA when not used as a particle. The Japanese government attempted to standardize WA sounds to わ after WWII, and was mostly successful, but the は particle stuck around, seemingly due to inertia. Lots of languages have little oddities in pronunciation that aren’t reflected in spelling, or vice versa. Where do the British get the F in lieutenant?

I might accept the premise that inflation is higher than officially reported, but I don’t accept the relevance of your evidence in support of that premise.

A lot of cases end in a financial settlement where the company doesn’t admit guilt.

Every company always claims they did nothing wrong. Is it even necessary for journalists to ask for a statement from a company? Just take it as read they deny whatever they’re accused of. You think a CEO is going to make an evil cackle, twirl their mustache, and admit everything?

Also look back on the history of the French Revolution and how many aristocrats literally lost their heads.

Roger, at Cornell University they have an incredible piece of scientific equipment known as the tunneling electron microscope. Now, this microscope is so powerful that by firing electrons you can actually see images of the atom, the infinitesimally minute building blocks of our universe. Roger, if I were using that microscope right now… I still wouldn’t be able to locate my interest in [Intuit’s] problem.

The danger is that places that don’t get cold often get hot. And don’t forget about climate change with regard to heat. Some homeless around Houston die every summer when they don’t have access to air conditioning.

It doesn’t have to be the main GPU. I’m not even sure it would be possible to pass through integrated graphics. But if all you need is HDMI output, you can use the absolute cheapest GPU you can find (assuming there’s an open PCIe slot). PCIe pass-through does require CPU support (Intel VT-d or AMD-Vi) on the host and may need to be enabled in the BIOS/UEFI. I have an NVIDIA Telsa card passed through to a VM on my Proxmox server, but I’m only using it for compute; my card doesn’t even have a video output.

Won’t someone please think of the corporate real estate market!?

I hired a professional to do my 2022 taxes. I had finally gotten access to an IRA that I inherited from my mother. She passed in 2014. Reading through the rules on inheriting IRAs, I knew I had missed RMD withdrawals, but I couldn’t find satisfactory answers on how much I needed to pay. The pros were able to calculate that for me and told me the amount to withdraw. They also drafted a letter to the IRS explaining the situation and asking that I be excused the penalty for missed RMDs. I got a letter back from the IRS in February accepting the explanation.
