My Brother B&W laser printer is a beast. I've had it probably eight years now and am only, two months ago, on my 3rd toner cartridge despite my relatively low use. That counts the starter cartridge which I am told isn't full.

My Brother color printer on the other hand is a pain. The yellow toner always runs out first and it won't print without it. Well, it can, if you finagle things, but then it only does for like 3-4 weeks. Annoying as shit.

But, overall, better than any HP or Canon I've ever used.

Probably going to be Lost. I'm 3 episodes in as of 2008 and haven't gone back yet...if I ever do, it will be the longest to get into for me by far.

In seriousness though...As others have said, The Office and Parks & Rec took me about a season to get into.

Arrested Development, I admit, took me a few episodes.

Always Sunny took me about a season...I think just to get into a groove of the style or something, I dunno.

I resemble this...sort of. Except my car is already paid for and I really don't think it's a wise decision to just blow money on another car simply to get out of a current vehicle that more than meets my needs.

Should watch us here in the US. We always vote against our interests and it always turns to shite.

Not voting or voting without knowing what's being voted for are yet another thing we're #1 at.

There are still...I dunno...probably DNS hops, IP, time's of day, browser window size, browser user agent...

And if you access any page with any similar parameters on your phone or another household device on any site with FB tracking, it's over.

It looks like in the last 7 days my phone has cutoff over 150,000 different tracking attempts and that's just catchable ones and on my phone.

Multiple people shared the account and communicated by making draft messages. And apparently notable things were said/left as draft.

3x base salary at least. No-thought commute, so maybe provide transportation for me. I currently live what is about 1.5hrs away each way now and there isn't a public transportation option.

Commute time should count towards my "8 hour work day". No distracting desk drive bys. Provided breakfast and lunch or an optional lunch stipend or whatever to cover if I go somewhere near the office.

Not sounding great for the company? It isn't meant to. It would be nearly impossible to get me to go back to the office, as it should be.

I'm not being unreasonable. I am at least twice as productive since working from home and even simple internal reports can prove that. I'm also 2-3x happier and less stressed, nothing can really replace that.

I actually encountered an issue earlier today where my important wasn't working...and it was because another dev had already added a more specific important.

I deleted their important.

As a tech worker, I do almost jack shit and make deep into the six figures. Honestly, I'd be fine if UPS drivers made more than me, good on them.

Frankly, in terms of total compensation, pay them more.

That's awesome. Also the lack of micro transactions makes me want to support them more. I kinda wish they had a donate button or something.

$20 one time for a well developed app that I use multiple hours a day is inexpensive.

I pay almost as much to multiple streaming services PER MONTH for a shitty experience and sometimes not a completely ad-free experience.

Anyway, in all honesty I chose the $1.99/mo because it gives the dev $24/yr into perpetuity. I also donate to instances. I also use Connect and Jerboa and Liftoff. It's whatever.

I hope it all burns down.
