My fav part of the 90s (in the US) is that the federal government introduced a law that would give significant raises to government employees to keep their compensation on par with other similar positions, however it has literally never been enacted since every single president since its inception has declared a national emergency to prevent it.
They also had RIFs in the 90s where they gutted half a million federal government employees. All while Alan Greenspan idiotically thought we’d never see a crash again (because markets did so well through the decade).
What I am saying is, at least in the US, everything is fucking made-up.
For anyone curious, I think this is that law.
Although FEPCA provides for an automatic formula to determine the annual pay raise, this formula has been ignored due to the cost of implementation. The President has authority under FEPCA to submit an “alternative” pay plan with a lower raise than that called for by the FEPCA formula (or none at all) “if because of national emergency or serious economic conditions affecting the general welfare” [5 U.S.C. §5303(b)(1)].
I’d think HOA suburban American neighborhoods would be a better photo. Every fucking house looks the same and is some kind of white or slightly off white color. Boring as shit.
That’s some bullshit people love to parrot. Its meaningless.
Its not a POV. Its a third-person view.

Strawberry is super confusing with playlists. Out of caution, I have learned to save Playlists multiple times to a file and try to close them all before opening/playing new stuff.
Too many times I’ve experienced selecting something new to play not only replace the currently playing, but replaces the Playlist, and it seems to overwrite it immediately.

My best builds are black towers, great airflow, minimal lights, and barely any noise. I’m focused on the game, not the machine.
The thing needs to be forgotten. It’s not the center of attention. The monitor is.
