It’s free at Costco, covered by the warranty on the tires they sell. I also just knew the tire had a slow leak, and didn’t know it was a nail until they finished the repair. If they weren’t so busy they would have finished before I finished my shopping.
I recently had a freaking reserved appointment time at a Costco tire center to fix a nail I picked up. I still had to wait 2 hours, despite the appointment.
IT professional for 20 years. C/C++ developer for 10 years prior to that.
My first job out of college was mostly luck. I took a job doing tech support but after a couple of years was able to transition into development work.
Virtually every job since that first one has been thanks to connections I made among coworkers. I got my current job because I knew two employees here. One of them was a co-founder of the company, and somebody I’ve known since the 1990’s and worked with at 3 other companies prior to this.

And just to really cover their tracks, Hegseth also probably ordered some bales of drugs from earlier seizures be dropped in the vicinity of the boat remains.
Starter Villain by the same author (John Scalzi) is a fun read.
Not to mention that it’s trivial to change your IP on most cloud providers. So if a VPN provider is using a cloud service for some of its gateways then it can quickly remember them if necessary.
For when Russia targets Sarah Palins house in Alaska?
Not at all surprising if the claims of quotas of something like 3000 arrests a day are accurate. They’re obviously going after the low hanging fruit given the pressure to fill that daily quota.
Good. The more the Republican voting block is fractured the better.
Reminds me a bit of Theranos. “Pay no attention to the man (or woman) behind the curtain”…
Does anybody else miss Compuserve, Delphi, etc?
Gary Plauche is another person who took justice into his own hands over the kidnapping and rape of his son back in the 1980s.
Plauche learned that the suspect was being flown back to town in police custody, and figured out the flight he was on. He waited at the airport, pretending to be using a pay phone. As the suspect was escorted past him he walked up and shot him in the head at almost point blank range. A local TV station caught it all on camera and I think you can still find it if you search for it.
Plauche was ultimately convicted of manslaughter but was given a suspended sentence, probation, and community service. No jail time.
Patel wants to keep using FBI coffers for perks though. He’s reportedly flying all over the place on FBI jets, made an FBI SWAT team act as a security detail for his girlfriend, etc.

Early reports indicate a Project 1171 landing ship docked at the naval base was also damaged.
Project 1171 apparently refers to Tapir class amphibious landing craft . According to Wikipedia the Russians only have three of them in operation, so if this damage is severe enough then it means yet another resource of theirs is being squeezed hard.
I hope somebody documents every penny Texas wastes on this frivolous crap.
The kid that was killed didn’t want to be there. He was terrified. He only went because rich daddy insisted & paid for him to come along. That’s tragic.
Remember how Putin stole a Super Bowl ring from Bob Kraft? He just asked to look at it then walked out of the room with it. I bet Trump would do exactly the same thing with a Nobel medal if he had the chance.
It’s low enough orbit that a space shuttle mission went to repair it shortly after it was launched.
