  • It would be good to be back in work asap, having a gap in employment been very detrimental for my employability. Getting far few interviews than before for lower level jobs.

    So I need a gap filler. I have sent an email back to Hr asking for confirmation, my hope is that they are reasonable and legally savvy enough to give me an actual trail. I am however worried that with that confrontation they may choice to drop the offer.

    But beyond that, their pension scheme, clocking in and even promotions (pay increases) seem to sign that they are a company that want to pay as little as possible.

  • I did a trial at my last job, took an hour where they had me soldering an old busted PCB and filling paperwork for employment, proof of address, banking details etc etc, which I was happy to do. And this current place that demands physical labour for the role, I'm slim built and assumed they'd see if I could lift and move stock, or use a till, communicate with customers, all this can be condensed down to an hour really and I would happily do that. Free labour though, the company smells rotten.

  • My mistake, trial shift.

  • Adverts are poison for the mind.

  • Capitalism

  • I tend to keep deterministic idea out as they seem harmful but I would love to further read into this, so if you have links send them my way

  • A lot of therapy is about acceptance, which our current society makes a boggy man from mental illness especially NPD and BPD which doesn't help the matter so in essence most therapy is self correcting with guidance.

    But how ever we will frame it, in a classless society people with NPD, or a general lack of empathy will get the help they need.

  • And we should seek to create a society where these people can self correct. Become empathetic.

  • What has he got to worry about, even if his stocks plunged to 0 he would still have a better retirement then the rest of us. Capitalism is a sickness even the capitalist are turned mentally ill by the system.

  • The one with the husband having doubts about his partners infidelity had me feeling sick, not something we need promoted in our media especially when his doubts turned true which could imbolden abusive partners.

  • The Boys. First season had raw charm with some cool punk tracks, then season two sterilised it and it seemed to become another day time TV show. Had a similar experience with Black Mirror once that got the American/Hollywood treatment. Always Sunny lost its charm when the gang went to Ireland. Aweful end to what was otherwise a good series. But I mostly dislike American TV.

  • For that I would go the route of any mini pc with ddwrt's development and an e-ink screen. More io, more affordable and much easier to develop on!

  • Its running an older version of android, 4.4 KitKat and its massively stripped down with system apps. Keeps in lean, but fully functional. As a tinkerer and an enjoyer of digital books, this scratches an itch which jailbreaking didn't.

  • I used the white winter jailbreak, then (guide)Installing android on your (aging) kindle e-reader

    Read the PDF to get I good understanding of the processes involved. Also one of the tools is in Chinese but once a list of text is shown press 8, I saw someone in the thread pressed something else and bricked they're Kindle, but its all covered in the PDF guide.

  • I was pretty content with that too but then with one of the updates I had Amazon asking for registration and network connection every time I powered on. That and defaulting to store screen instead of my library. When I first got the pw3 this wasn't an issue.

  • I would recommend the white winter jailbreak.

  • I don't have gaps on my kindle. And even has limited system apps as it needs to be light for the hardware

  • If I had to buy an ereader I would buy something that is native android but my pw3 had been passed to me from my grandmother, which I cherish the device but I care deeply about privacy and freedom so hackdroid is a great middle ground.

  • My kindle PW3 runs android well. If anything it feels faster as no notifications about logging in, registering.
