It's finally fixed. Or at least they've taken the sign down. I haven't had need to stop by after hours this week to see if the lobby is back to being open 24/7.
The United States Postal Service is holding hostage the mail of hundreds of people at the Belle Grove USPS Post Office in Richardson, TX. So right now anyone who has a PO Box and a 9 to 5 job have a slim 3 hour window once a week to get our mail.

I paid for 24x7 access. This is unacceptable.

The USPS still hasn't fixed this.
USPS still holding my mail hostage and narrowing down the window for when I get my mail from whenever I'm not at work to 3 hours a week on Saturday mornings when I'd rather be running errands and working on projects.

It's been this way since at least Labor Day weekend.

Valhalla save me from alpha male developers who won't take instruction from their solution architects.

Folks, if you head a work e-mail with the words "Gentile Reminder", then add an exclamation point and put it in red with bold type, that no longer qualifies as "gentile".

Remember back before SNW S3 when Star Trek had messages, morals and meanings?

Filming with the Virtual Wall has hurt modern Star Trek more than it's helped.
tell me a fandom opinion that you’d defend like this

I think it’s cool how Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is homaging The Original Series by being absolute dogshit in season 3

I have problems watching sitcoms because I hate feeling cringy and I get very cringy when I feel embarrassed for the characters or feel they're doing or saying something exceptionally stupid.

This Strange New Worlds episode makes me cringy.

This is over on Facebook, but I think @trekranks.com might have some competition.

I just heard a new term at work today.

"Weaponized Incompetence"

This is an absolutely true phenomenon.

We started back into the office full time a couple months ago, in a new building with no cell service. They've provided a wireless connection, but blocked all social media sites.

Today I finally got my VPN working on that network. I can't tell you how happy it made me to get on FB & BlueSky again.

Oh South Park... You are awesome.

Pro tip for those looking for office space. If you're thinking about leasing a sublet of a sublet of a sublet, maybe, before signing, ask why the other tenants didn't want to stay.

My desk shakes from the traffic outside and we have to go outside to the west of the building to get a cell signal.

Dear @microsoftwindows11.bsky.social , being able to add formatting to text in notepad defeats the entire point of using notepad.

I need a new description for when "Ready, Build, Plan" does not adequately describe the chaos involved in the project recently dumped in my lap.

Me: Where is the vendor documentation saying we should open a firewall to the huge port range?

Them: There is no documentation, we're getting all our info on it from ChatGPT.

Me: (after a 3 second search) Here is a link to the official manual hosted on the Vendor web site.

People! If I write up extremely detailed and explicit instructions, I've done it so you don't need me to hold your hand while you go through the steps.
