Boy, I’m real hesitant to go to HR. May as well ask to be fired.

It really depends on the business, culture, climate. The better places I’ve worked, this kind of interest is genuine, an attempt to foster better relationships at work. Of course, some people are just nosey Nellies…

Without knowing the environment and culture (and the questions), it’s hard to say what to do.

Best I can say is to make it clear you like to keep your work and private life well separated.

Also OP, if someone else feels insulted, that’s on them. They’ve chosen to feel insulted. Besides, how do you know she feels insulted? If she’s communicating that, then she’s being manipulative, using “emotional blackmail”. Look, I’m not responsible for how you choose to feel, that’s on you.

One trick I’ve used with people who continue with questions is to respond with a non-sequiter, something jarring, and use it all the time, repeatedly. Something like “how about the weather”, or “how about those <insert local sports team>”. Make it your catch phrase for when people continue to pry, and don’t be afraid to repeat it. Keep in mind tone matters, so say it like you mean it, like you walked in on Monday after a team did well, or got their asses beat. You don’t even have to like the sport or the team, in fact it’s kind of funny if you don’t like them.

It’s a bit of re-framing the conversation, while also communicating you aren’t interested in the subject, without being an ass. And if anyone complains, well, you were just talking about a sports team.

They said that they try to reserve their spots for people who specifically fall short of other places.

Sounds like bias.

You, I like you.

Wait, provide no feedback?

Korea is split in 2 courtesy of the Soviet Union and China post-WWII.

And then there’s the whole Cold War, Berlin Wall, gulags, etc.

Lol… (sorry, it’s funny but also makes sense it can suck being on the other side).

To me the question is flabbergasting - I genuinely have no answer. It’s like asking “why do you want the sun to rise in the morning?”.

So what have deadpool

He knows what his music is, makes fun of it.

I decided there simply were not enough docker apps for downloading Youtube videos, and so I made the situation worse :p

You get my upvote for this alone!

Me too. New Word!!

You’re right. Thanks for the reminder. Memory ain’t what it used to be.

One of?

I’m going with the largest, by a huge margin. Unix and it’s descendents run everything. Even MS uses it for some things.

Unix has been around since 1969-ish, that’s 20 years before NT.

And I’ve use NT every day since it came out.

Agreed.

I skimmed through the article, and see no mention of DEC Alpha VMS, which is NT’s predecessor, which is really disappointing. Great read though, very well done.

DOS and Win3.1 really have little to do with NT. A DEC Alpha team was laid off around 1990, MS hired them, and NT is the result. Mark Minasi (I think, may also have been his partner, who’s name I can’t remember) wrote an article about 1998 in Windows Magazine (NT Magazine?) about it, and broke down the components of both NT and Alpha to demonstrate the similarity.

I’ve been looking for the article for a couple years now.

Because they control congress/parliament, etc.

Staggering to me how many people don’t see this, and denigrate populism (not that I think you do, clearly those commenting on this issue see what’s going on).

They get to tax those trillions at an extremely low rate, right?

So it takes you half a second to remove the “m”?

I’ve moved to DivestOS, a fork of Lineage. A bit more restrictive to Google stuff - can run MicroG/GServices isolated.
