There were shadowy conspiracists lurking in the dark alleys of Washington, and hiding from the glaring sun in the High Desert of California, but they were laughably easy prey when the Martian lizard people, the subterranean Vril-empowered mole-men, and the globalist pedophile Commies did show up.

I never played Fallout New Vegas.
It’s sitting unused in my Steam library.
Is it actually any good?
a modguide that makes the game actually playable and performant.
Can you elaborate? How is the game not playable without mods?

In a cold climate, those who preferred “every man for himself” died a long time ago.
It’s DNA from bacteria that live inside you.
It does! If you teach one billionaire a lesson about the power of the working class, blend them and feed them to another billionaire, the other billionaire will have learned the same lesson.
How many does that feed?
Yes, apparently everyone was banging each other in that firm.
I was called in as tech support. On a work PC in a shared office (financial consulting firm), the desktop wallpaper was a full frontal nude of the co-worker sitting across the room.
Very well, thanks for asking.
You take it out of the oven, cut a slice as fast as you can and immediately bite down on it, holding it in your mouth until the cheese has completely fused with the roof of your mouth.
Same boat here. A recruiter gave me the advice that staying at a company for less than 2 or more than 7 years sticks out and makes them suspicious.
If you switched after less than 2 years, how can they rely on you sticking with them?
If you switched after more than 7 years, are you flexible enough? And what actually forced you to switch now?
To be honest, when you continue to work for the same company, your knowledge will also only grow by +2% to +4% per year.
You’ll be the go-to guy for a number of things, all of which you’ve done a thousand times. Doing something else will decrease the team’s efficiency, cause someone else is the go-to guy with the expert knowledge on that.
And you only work within the context of your company, without getting exposed to how other companies do things.
It takes a certain soft skill to break out of one setting and hit the ground running somewhere else, which most don’t have. And after you switch, you bring a valuable outside view into whatever company you enter. That’s part of the reason you can demand more at a new workplace.
Staying for a long time in one place also offers comfort and familiarity, which have value for people, especially with families.
Employers need to pay more to make up for that loss in “value”.
bullshitting other people
But at what cost? The fiscal expense is impossible to calculate. One attempt by the Centre for Strategic and International Studies, a think-tank, estimated that China spent over 1.7% of GDP on industrial policy in 2017-19, which would add up to over $3trn in today’s dollars if sustained for a decade. That money could have been spent on other things, such as health care, which might have better served the public
Or they could have funneled those trillions into the private pockets of a few billionaires.
Protip: Stick the cards on the passenger side rear-view mirror.
That way the driver won’t notice them at first until they want to start driving, and then they have to get out of the car and walk around it to take it off.
It all depends on implementation. If AirDrop reception is disabled by default and you don’t get a notification unless you activate it first, then I guess it’s fine.
When it’s being done by your supervisor at work, whose opinion your livelyhood depends on, then yes.
