tetrapyloctomy posted:I'd love to see what the employee market would look like if we gave everyone medical, prescription, dental, and vision coverage. If people could job-hunt without that hanging over them, employers would have to actually compete rather than being able to rely on people being desperate for any job. The number of people that are only staying in the job they have now for the health insurance is staggering. It is absolutely having an effect on our overall economy's productivity. I've got a couple friends that would go out on their own in entrepreneurial ventures, but the cost/risk of health care for their family is prohibitive.

Darchangel posted:Basics are to knock the gloss off, if glossy. You can sand, or there are liquid products that will do it. Gotta give the paint something to bite into. If it's just unpainted wood (sorry, haven't watched the whole video tour), you're probably ready to go as is. Yep, quick sand to scuff up the surface. Wipe down. Primer and paint. Oil based takes longer to cure and is a pain to clean up, but pays dividends with hardness and longevity.

Rhyno posted:He's a struggling single parent dealing with a rotten ex wife who is blaming the child for her problems. I don't think he meant that in an overly harsh way. IOwnCalculus posted:I'd argue that Tumblr is very much a place where an impressionable sixteen year old would develop extremely unrealistic expectations / have themselves exploited, at the very least mentally if not physically. I don't know how you let your 16 year old go on Tumblr in the first place. If I saw that pop up on my kid's history, we'd be having a discussion, then I'd be blocking the site. Nothing good ever came from Tumblr.

Ether Frenzy posted:16 year olds can drive literal cars to places you can't monitor. People who can drive cars are adults in everything but the difference between which jail they'll go to if they kill someone while doing it. Perhaps you should stop snooping in their internet use at this point. If you're the parent of a 16 year old and do not monitor them to some degree, you're doing parenting wrong. They are legally your responsibility, and morally/ethically your responsibility, too. If you're allowing a side-Tumblr hustle to continue from your 16 year old girl, there is a problem. These things shouldn't be hard to understand.

Ether Frenzy posted:You're correct, I'm not a parent - I only have it from the "I would have been disgusted to find out that my parents' acquaintances were discussing my personal life with a bunch of random strangers and making weird assumptions based on knowing literally nothing about me" angle that I would have had when I was 16. This world isn't what it was 30 years ago. Giving a teenager unfettered access to the internet with zero oversight is reckless, but if you don't have kids, I can understand a lack of comprehension. It really does change your perspective. Ether Frenzy posted:Sorry I think weird patriarchal thoughts about other people's nearly-grown daughters is "a bad thing". And the fact that you think 16 years old is "nearly-grown" punctuates that. Kids of that age are still kids. They have complex thoughts and are just coming to the point of being truly self-aware, but to just say "Hey y'all, just have at that internet and do fetish drawings for whomever you bump into on Tumblr" is asinine. I respect my kid and recognize that he's going to make choices that I may or may not be okay with... but if I see he's routinely camping out on some fringe site, well, that's when you have to parent. FAT32 SHAMER posted:Monitoring in this case mostly means “check in every once in a while” And that's exactly what I do. See what pops up frequently and in general, I don't worry about it, because he's a good kid. But I'll watch to make sure he stays on that track.

Geoj posted:As an IT professional now I get a good laugh at the idea that you could block a website with any degree of efficacy. Sure, it's possible in your home or on a device you control. But when internet connected devices with HD playback capability can be had for a song (say, a three plus year old mid-range smartphone), and finding open internet is as simple as walking a few blocks to the nearest retail establishment (or even within range of a lazy neighbor) I think you'll start to understand how futile this all is. Locks just keep an honest man honest. There's always ways around regulations... whether it's cars or computers or girls. It's a parent's job to put reasonable barriers to the more stupid choices therein. In other news, my cousin just got a new CB300R, and it makes me want a biek.

Del 1355cn here. It's about 6-ish years old and great for a color laser... except the motherfucker goes to sleep on the network and you have to manually wake it, which defeats the whole purpose of having a network printer... it's fully abandoned as far as support/firmware goes, so I don't think there's anything to change. Sad. Edit: quick google search shows that it may just be the printer dropping its dhcp lease and I just need to assign it a permanent address... I may try that.

This S9+ is better than my old 6p in every way, and I really liked the 6p. I tried the S8+ a few months ago, but it wasn't that much better than the 6p... but the 9 really seems to hit the mark. Sure there are a couple annoyances ( keyboard, mostly), but I agree, it's not that much of a detraction.

She scheduled vacation, because she was over the carryover limit. If she doesn't use those hours, she'll lose them. If the government is shut down, that supersedes vacation pay and she'll just lose the time she's banked.

ilkhan posted:The author of MHI (the name of the book series, BTW) is a class 7 FFL, CCW instructor, and a world class shooter. If you read the article he gives far more data and applied experience than I can. Since you obviously didn't read the article, where that experience is laid out in the first couple paragraphs, I called you out for not reading said article. He knows guns and shoots guns and teaches guns. Big loving deal. That has nothing to do with the way guns are handled in a policy or regulation format. And his "support" was other bloggers. Absolutely zero credibility in an academic forum. If that's the type of source you think is reliable and valid well... that explains a lot.
