  • It is interesting that the price has already dropped on the P8 and is expected to continue to drop thru black Friday.

    This is precisely why I never buy new anymore, having been burned by two previous Pixel releases in the past.

    This chip situation doesn’t bode well for my continued Pixel use however.

    Software is important but it isn’t everything, and like the article said raw horsepower does matter. For me. The most important things are battery, life display brightness, and cellular connectivity - something my pixel 6 Pro objectively fails at on all three fronts.

    Combine that with all of the data theft that Google software utilizes, and I think I’m pretty much done.








  • Well, the idea is that there are “levels” to being sick. In CA this shit would never fly.

    I don’t even like calling it “sick” I call out for the day, period. I’m not calling in sick or calling in hung over or calling in for family reasons, I’m fucking NOT AVAILABLE for today.

    This is the bullshit that wfh has brought and of course not all companies are doing this.




  • You actually touched on something that really pisses me off about my 100% work from home job.

    It’s the fact that my boss can somehow justify that you roll yourself out of bed and log in. He literally uses the phrase sometimes “too sick to log in?” As a means of discouragement from calling out sick, or at the very least get some productivity out of you while you’re sick.

    Name a job that would try this shit in real life? When you’ve called out you’ve called out, it doesn’t mean reduced workload because you’re sick ffs.
