That sucks.

If the college won’t fix their infrastructure, path of least resistance is to get out of the dorms at the first available chance. Likely next semester or next year.

As the other commenter said, he needs to hook up to the ethernet jack in his room. The Wifi generally sucks in dorms, too crowded.

This isn’t a problem on Lemmy. You can see the exact up and downvote counts.

I appreciate this quite a bit, as a comment that has 200 up votes, 200 down votes is a much more interesting comment than one with 1 up, 1 down. The former is a hotly debated comment, and the latter just means the conversation partner downvoted their other half. These are both ‘zero votes’.

Going to add one more: Steam.

Steam has a built-in voice chat and chat channels for your friends.

I’m not sure about the hood height part, but CAFE (US fuel economy standards) loosen the MPG requirements as vehicles get larger. The curve is poorly made and it is simply easier to increase the size of the vehicle and hit the looser fuel economy requirements. The regulation with the goal to increase fuel economy…encourages larger vehicles with worse fuel economy.

It’s also turned out to not be true.

Thank you, I appreciate the suggestions! I’ll look more into a few of those. Swapped over to Linux about a year ago and the Microsoft toolchain no longer fully exists (like Visual Studio). It’s to be expected, but, mostly just means I need to find other tool chains.

What is a good language to code in for Linux if one is used to C#? I didn’t realize this limitation and am considering writing some basic Linux tools for myself.

There are two standards as it allows one to make a crossover cable. (Do B on one side and A on the other)

I also find crossover cables completely useless and refuse to own one less it gets mixed into the pile. Everyone has a router/switch, which negates the need completely.

Am I the only one to call them ‘light orange’ instead of ‘orange-stripe’? I know they aren’t that color, yet whenever I’m crimping a cable and have to repeat the colors to get them in order…

Practical effects are more informative than theoretical readings. Study the countries that implemented it and how things ran. That gives the most practical and unbiased view.

With how strong AA and Indy game studios are, I’m not worried. Good riddance to the AAA studios sucking up oxygen.

Husband?

Not sure why you are getting down-voted. It isn’t like Disney shows are essential to life or that piracy doesn’t exist.

Netflix was the last streaming service I paid for, until I realized I was paying for 1080p and they would only send 720p because I don’t have the right monitor, OS, and browser.

Absolutely, that monitor isn’t even plugged in. (No, seriously, look at it!)

Note Putin’s monitor isn’t even plugged in. Just, A+.

I don’t believe a functioning FBI wouldn’t be able to make exceptions for agents that would be qualified if not for conditions far outside their control as children.

The entire point of the article is that there was exactly that limitation and the rules are now coming into line with your prior expectation of how the rules should work.

From the article:

multiple individuals have been disqualified from applying for the agency because they were victims of human-trafficking-related bestiality.

the FBI has had a number of applicants in previous years who suffered sexual abuse in their past, causing questions about prostitution, bestiality, or other similar issues to affect their background check process through zero fault of their own. Previously, those applicants would be barred from consideration. Now they can be considered.

“Applicants who have engaged in bestiality means they were victims of bestiality because they were forced to do so,” replied Patel. “At this FBI we are not going to criminalize and prevent victims from serving.”

The article repeatedly states this is about sexual victims. It doesn’t use the word ‘felon’ a single time. Not only that, it even points out that those convicted of such crimes are still not eligible for employment.

new FBI hiring standards are aimed at protecting “victims of bestiality.”

“Applicants who have engaged in bestiality means they were victims of bestiality because they were forced to do so,” replied Patel. “At this FBI we are not going to criminalize and prevent victims from serving.”

It is false to suggest criminal behavior like this is no longer disqualifying at the FBI—any applicant who has engaged in criminal sexual acts like those referenced would of course not be eligible for employment, and it is ridiculous to suggest otherwise.

The body is talking about no longer barring trafficking victims who were forced against their will to perform sexual acts with animals. It’s pretty obvious one should not bar the victim from a job.

The only ‘not the onion’ part of this article is the title which does not make the facts clear.
