A user who hopes a clean install will be necessary after an update?
Back in the WinXP days, I could do a clean install and reinstall all application in 45 minutes. I've done that only three times over the last ten years since Windows Vista.
Man, you bring up that black macbook every single opportunity you have.
It's a legendary Apple product. I get a lot of attention when I bring it into the Apple Store. Most people have heard of the black MacBook but haven't actually seen one since the white MacBook was more common.
I haven't used SuSE since the late 1990's. It was one of my favorite Linux distro. These days I'm using Red Hat Linux as I may study for the certification and Linux Mint on my vintage black MacBook.
Like, maybe, you come across as an obnoxious twat to every hiring manager you meet?
Nope. I wasn't hired because I wasn't working. Discrimination against the unemployed was a huge problem in 2009-10.
So you mean to say that once employers had hired *literally* everybody else they could tolerate more than they could tolerate you, EVEN YOU were able to find a job? That's great!
When the economy turned around in mid-2011, there was fewer working people looking for jobs and employers had to hire unemployed people to fill out the head counts.
Recruiters saying "you're overqualified for these jobs"
Hiring managers were telling me that I was "overqualified" for their minimum wage jobs. Recruiters were telling me I was "unemployable" for anything else. They were wrong. From 2011 to 2013, I worked seven days a week for 30+ short- and long-term assignments.
But you've always had contracts that forbade overtime and limited you to 40 hours a week. So you were working 5-1/2 hours a day then?
I was working for three contracting agencies during that time. A weekday assignment with the prohibition not to work more than 40 hours a week for that contracting agency. A weekend assignment that could start on Friday night from one of the two other contracting agencies.
Like many of my coworkers today, I work 40 hours for my weekday job and another 40 hours for my side business.
No bullshit. There was seven applicants for every job opening when I was out of work for two years. Hiring managers and recruiters would only hire people who had still had a job, writing everyone else off. When I got my full-time job in mid-2011, there was three applicants for every job opening, When hiring managers and recruiters couldn't fill out the head count, they started hiring anyone they could find. I spent the next two years working seven days a week.
Funny you should mentioned that. My apartment complex announced that they have guest apartments available for short-term rentals. I don't think they're doing AirBnB yet.
When Buzz Aldrin spoke at the Silicon Valley Comic Con to promote his book, "No Dream Is Too High: Life Lessons From a Man Who Walked on the Moon," I don't think he mentioned anything about the space station. Then again he read from prepared notes. When it came time for Q&A, he tended to drift off topic and the moderator had to bring him back on topic.
Hiring managers are reluctant to hire higher-skilled people for minimum wage jobs because they know that people will leave when a better opportunity comes along. When I was out of work for two years, hiring managers told me I was overqualified for minimum wage jobs and recruiters told me I was unemployable for everything else. I ended up working for a moving company on the weekends for six months until I found another full-time job.
Maybe within +/-30 or 40%, and at that point, why bother posting them at all?
Because the unwashed masses uses Zillow as a starting point in their discussions about real estate values. If the realtor doesn't know about Zillow, they will find a realtor who does. Zilliow can make or break a realtor.
OMG! The Chinese compromised the venerable 555 chip. I got two dozen spying away in my parts box. I'll have to drown them in flux paste when I get home.
However, as per the Fair Housing Act, if one tenant has breathing problems and another nearby tenant smokes, they can force the smoking tenant to move to another unit and/or move out of the complex entirely.
What the situation could be since the apartment complex is covered by the Fair Housing Act (federal law), CA-legal pot smoking isn't allowed. If the pot smokers have to go outside the gates, the cigarette smokers have to go outside the gates as well.

That must've been for a home/play PC, right?
Correct. With the base OS image installed, updated and saved prior to reinstalling programs.

That's the Slashdot effect. Noticed how some stories are posted repeatedly the same or next day?

Windows 10 Fails Creator
FTFY - V'Ger is pissed. Exterminate all the carbon units!
If you're talking about the Anniversary Update, I had to do a clean install on my Dell laptop. I'm hoping it will be necessary for the next update.

Yeah, we know. Well, we know that is what you tell us. Only you know if it is the truth.
It's on the Internet, so it must be true.
Bullshit.

Do they use them for AirBnB?

I've decided o stop being a dickhead, honest -creimer
FTFY - :P
Dammit man - I was wrong - you did mention one of those things: in a comment to this story.
Everything in that comment was relevant to the discussion at hand.
You have no other IT-related items of information to add to an IT discussion?
That depends on what is being discussed. How many times have the editors posted the same story on the same day or next day?
Maybe within +/-30 or 40%, and at that point, why bother posting them at all?

Amazon interns will have first hand work experience at packing homeless people into boxes for shipment as robots drag them off the streets.
They're exiled Establishment Republicans who didn't support Trump in the 2016 election.

Unless you're with the Government Printing Office. :)
Now I have to bury another body in the Federal Register. :P

Let her tend the petunias, then.
My roommate's mother plucked the petals to make potpourri. I wasn't thrilled to come home find the flower petals in a bowl.
