The person's injuries will still compound quickly, but once thet have a grip of a squirrel, it wouldn't be especially hard to lethally injure.

Personally I wouldn't plan on gripping them at all. That's asking for a bite. Unless you plan to just trade hits with them until you win? I'm thinking more of a stomping/kicking/striking strategy to do some crowd control and try to keep them off as much as possible.

While you can “auto match” a bit, employers need a moment to look at the whole picture you’re representing, and they can have 100+ pictures to look at. No sane company is letting candidates control their calendar.

As the applicant, I think I should get the whole picture as well. Pay (range, at least), WFH, flexibility of hours - I should know what I'm applying for, not waste mine and the company's time to find out in an interview. Regarding the calendar, if they're interviewing qualified candidates anyway, what difference should it make to let those qualified get the interviews on a first come first serve basis? The ones who really want that job will be all over it. The company can still reserve timeslots to interview hand-picked candidates if they want. The whole runaround of waiting for a response to then set an appointment for the interview is a pain imo.

Not sure what you mean by “notifications”, I’m overrun. Maybe give us options to dial our interests in a bit? Sick of bullshit emails for “installer” or, FFS, “sales rep”.

Emails, or a little bell icon on the website, somewhere you can check and see "here are some jobs that fit your filter, and your qualifications are a match, click one to book an interview". I agree, I am overrun with emails about job postings since I started looking. I would say less than half are of any interest to me at all, and many of them don't have those important details that we should know about (the pay, WFH etc).

For the points I made, I noticed Indeed has some of these capabilities, but it's still half-baked and full of junk listings. Their "Apply Easily" autofill thing is great, when the poster has set up the application that way, but many don't. I also notice a lot of postings seem to be scams and it can be hard to tell if I'm applying for an actual job or giving away personal info to a scammer. There's no accountability on Indeed to vet the postings afaik. Anyway, I'm not sure what I'm asking for is realistic for OP, but figured I would brainstorm with a real-life example to their question. Good luck in your search, it's ridiculous out there!

Job hunting.

Standardize the application process so you don't have to reformat what's on your resume for some shitty website for each job application.

Standardize the details like pay and remote work and make it mandatory in the listing - no guessing or negotiating, no bullshit.

Auto-match jobs and candidates - if your qualifications match, you can schedule your interview via click calendar. No "wait and see".

Notifications for jobs you're qualified for, with the pay and details listed in plain sight, so even if you are already employed you always know what other opportunities there are at a glance.

History channel has Forged in Fire where, for about 30 seconds per episode, they give a quick lesson about the historic weapon the contestants will make.

But yeah, TV is bullshit. Fuck commercials.

The developer is talented but lacks the confidence to complete their work. Out of desperation they resort to the 'easy way out' and develop demos to scam supporters with no intention of shipping a finished game. Can one supporter whose belief in them/blackmail be enough to change their ways and finish what will undoubtedly be a smash hit?

I sure don't feel safe just ignoring it, considering the frequency.

My Linux Mint Cinnamon won't boot up. It's getting stuck on this screen and I don't know what to do to proceed. Before this screen appears it shows the LM logo for a moment.

I'm a total noob and just been using this for a month or two. Did not make any recent changes that I can recall.

I'm learning as I go. Proud of getting some interaction with the environment working. Still lots of bugs to sort out, especially player and camera movement!

I always wanted to try this game when I was a kid. When checking out reviews on Steam I noticed someone mention that Sega was giving it away for free for their 60th anniversary (a few years ago), and that website is still up and running. Long story short, I tried it and it works. Replacing the localhost part of the URL was necessary as the screenshot mentions.

Among some friends I seem to be the odd one out who doesn't like heat and the sun. To me an overcast fall day, 10C is perfect. Rain is welcome if it does not overstay its welcome.

What do you mean men are growing beards "again"? I haven't noticed any trend between clean shaven / bearded. Some do, some don't.
