"Would U.S. tech workers join a union?" survey average: 67% likely
  • Would a union be able to repeal this lame IT overtime pay expectation? This dumb rule was the $27.63 over ten years ago too. I once worked at a place and a co-worker was told by his staffing agency that they didn't have to pay overtime.

  • Removing Windows. Choosing a new daily driver for a gaming PC
  • I have been using Linux forever. I've used Red hat, SUSE, Debian, Slackware, Mandrake, Ubuntu and now Arch with KDE. Part of the fun is trying different distros.

    I've currently settled with vanilla Arch with KDE (Gnome get it together) and a bunch of flatpaks for user software stuff. I really like rolling releases these days. Just keep the core install minimal and tight.

    Also the Arch forum community is top notch.

    With that said I would start with package manager and desktop GUI you like and then go from there.

  • Surgeon general's warning: Parenting may be hazardous to your health
  • Yep all true. It's tough and parents are expected to just make it happen. A couple years ago the kid tax credit went up to help familes and instantly the daycare montly rate when up, so it didnt amount to anything.

  • Grocery stores promoting gas discounts are not helping the transition away from gas vehicles

    Large grocery stores around here offer cheaper gas if you shop at there store. This can be up to a dollar a gallon off.

    I decided to have a green tea because it's healthier than soda. It's healthier, right?

    Retro stores: Please price your games.

    Not labeling and dynamically changing the price of games sucks the fun out of buying. And just makes me want to buy online. Grumpy grump grump.
