Yo dawg, I heard you like interruptions...

To the victor goes the scholarship.
Then I suppose the question is reduced to how one should select the 5 people! :)
I would suggest getting an ortholinear keyboard. When I first switched to a Kinesis advantage, the FIRST thing I noticed was how many terrible habits I had of hitting a key with the wrong finger (even twisting my hand about, if you can believe that). Having keys in line with actual finger geometry cured that mess up real quick!
Perhaps more important is to have devices start or fall open... if the OEM has lost interest in it, let others support the device. Make ewaste valuable and avoidable.
I assume that is the intended purpose of the wago connector over the hot line.
Even if AI never actually takes someone's job, it's clear that the hype surrounding it can displace workers, and it's use in screening candidates may prevent you from finding another.
Another missed opportunity to bring back the headphone jack.
I hate to make it even weirder, but getting... erm... "unborn"... is not quite the same as being killed. Methinks it would be more like a scifi movie where an alien force absorbs everyone on Earth.
Technically true, proportionally.
Now you can cut your hair and keep it too!
I deal with a lot of VMs for varying purposes, and it seems frequent that my purpose for opening firefox is derailed by some kind of nag. For example, I frequently get the "you haven't used firefox in a while" in vms that I rarely use firefox and have to go disable the "meta refresh" option in the "about:config".
Now, I've started seeing this one... it's not even one of the passive banners but a full-page stop-the-world w/ semi-transparent background and right-click prevention.
Before I invest too much time trying to figure out how to disable these, or templating profile options en-masse, or the like... I thought I might ask... is there a way I can tell firefox that I only want it to only be a web-browser? i.e. an effective tool and not an attention sink or exciting video-game-like challenge of exploration and closing popups and suggestions while trying to remember why I launched it.
Somewhat relatedly, there is some kind of irony with firefox prominently offering to copy a URL without tracking for other sites, but when it is their own ad (however benign it might seem) that they disable right-clicks and load up on the trackers. The above button links to:
write: fstab: no space left on device
dall-e v3 w/ minor post-generation mods. Prompt: A robotic solicitor knocks on a home's closed front door with his right fist knuckles. The robot is dressed in a suit which has a large corporate logo on it and holds a tablet in his left hand.
This is my attempt to recreate an image from one of my friends who is an artist. After generating the image, I modified it in gimp to better capture the feel of the original artwork.
dall-e 3 prompt: A pale human figure abstraction sits atop one of the floating islands hugging his knees facing right. The islands have round tops, crumbling dirt below, green grass on the top, and they float in a spacial void of black, blue, and purple. Some of the other floating islands are also flat-topped with grass, but some are just lifeless asteroids. There are no planets and no sun.
dall-e 3; prompt: "The Linux computer system that every nerd can only dream of owning."
It's possible that I was just doing it entirely wrong, but I seem to recall (from when I tried it years ago) that I would still get interruptions (like phone calls, meetings, and slack messages) but then the timer would go off during those interruptions.
