I would love to know how much of a roll that meme played in her choice of degree. Like, in the parallel universe where everything is identical up to this fire, but this picture wasn’t taken (ie, the camera didn’t work or something), did she still choose that degree?

I mean, OP provided a source link.

That’s an absolutely fair point.

Nevertheless, my overall point stands. Each fast food place I worked at had their own chain specific jargon. Nobody used, or cared about, sit-down restaurant jargon.

I mean, the guy who used the restaurant term was giving directions directly to a restaurant.

A “fast food joint” is not a restaurant in that sense. Nobody with any common sense would expect a bunch of kids working their (likely) first job for spending money to be up on, or care about, restaurant jargon.

In the third paragraph you mentioned “tux” but I’m guessing that you meant “tmux”. Just a clarification for readers not familiar with it and want to look it up.

True story, about 20-25 years ago, a radio station in my home town was playing ads for some new local business doing web design.

After hearing the ad on my drive to work for the umpteen billionth time I finally got curious and went to check out their own website (I they’re charging people to build websites, they’re own website must be a pretty awesome demonstration of their skills, right?)

The website looked like absolute garbage and, upon viewing the source, the meta tags clearly betrayed the fact that it was created in Word.

I can only imagine how much money they were paying to run those ads. I even considered the possibility I was being pranked somehow.

No, it just prevents banks, etc from checking your credit score/rating, which prevents anyone from opening a new account under your name. When YOU want to open an account, you temporarily unfreeze it for a couple days so that the institution you’re opening an account at can check, and then refreeze it.

The credit agencies will continue monitoring how much credit you have and how well you pay your bills and adjust your score accordingly. Freezing has no effect on that.

The best time to have frozen your credit reports at all three agencies was many many years ago. The second best time is right now. Not tomorrow. Now.

They want to use the public space for that.

Re #3; Yeah, that’s the “heart warming human interest story” part of the orphan crushing machine.

Wait. Am I reading this right? Their punishment for doing something that they weren’t supposed to be doing is just to stop doing it?

I often say, “Free Speech doesn’t mean other people are required to provide you with a soap box and megaphone.”

Server admins are just people, generously running a server, for you. This costs them time and money to do. If they don’t want their server amplifying the content from some other server that they see as problematic, they absolutely should have that option.

I vow from this point forward to always pronounce it, BEE-ka-chefs.
