The seller also says that the keyboard is unlabelled so 🤷

I'd consider a thinkpad t590 if it had a dGPU, but a laptop with a GTX 1660 Ti priced at $300 is an insane price even if it doesn't come with ram or a hard drive. If I had them install everything then it would cost only $400

Thank you SatansMaggotyCumFart, I'll see if there's a mutual aid community in my city.

I'm homeless (working on it, have a few interviews coming up) and I noticed that there was a mutual aid community located in hexbear. Do I need to make another account or can I use this one to make a post there? Also if there's a loan/borrow community let me know.

It's a remote company, so I doubt it. I was working alongside people based in the Philippines and South Africa.

And I'm not going to tell them I'm homeless or having issues with internet, they'll just hire someone else. It's an entry level position.

I'm homeless and living in a shelter. I had recently attained a remote WFH tech support job which was perfect because I wouldn't have to pay for transportation and they were providing me with the equipment I needed. I was sent a PC and monitor and I had tried setting it up in a semi obscured place in the shelter but the supervisor there informed me that I couldn't continue to work this way because "they don't know what I'm doing on it" which is a load of shit imo because they don't know what anyone is doing on the internet.

I had to be connected to the internet via an Ethernet cable. I tried:

  • going to the library (inaccessible router)
  • going to a cafe
  • going to a local college (company blocked captive portal)
  • using a travel router (company literally blocked the connection once I set it up, called coworkers and they said the same thing)

I was finally able to find someone who was offering a private room just for work but by the time I was set up I had already received a notice of termination in my email.

I'm beyond furious at the shelter staff and I don't know what I could have done to prevent myself from getting fired. I was to move into a place next week contingent on me keeping the job and getting my first paycheck but I had to contact my would be landlord yesterday to let him know that I can't move in. I keep replaying this scenario and I don't know what I could have done to not get fired. I guess I'll go fuck myself.
