  • Idk man, I have a federally compliant 1 way pager. So it’s not illegal. We score the highest marks on our DoD security audits every year. Theyre distrubuted from the security office, so I’m sure they do some sort of vetting on each individual one.

    We’re a govt contractor, but our civilian govt counterparts use them too

    People that work in classified environments. You can’t have smart devices (phones, watches, anything that communicates with the outside) while in these controlled spaces. pagers are acceptable because they’re 1 way communication, so there’s no risk of data leaks from the classified space
















  • I’ve lost count of the amount of times I’ve been asked, “you’re from Ohio? Why aren’t you an Ohio state fan?”

    Anecdotally, every bar fight I’ve almost been in has been with ohio state fans. One was when Marcus mariotta got hurt in the championship game and the bar I was at erupted in cheers and I called them out for being dick heads. The other was when a guy in an Ohio state shirt approached me and told me I needed to, “get my bitch on a leash” referring to my wife.

    I actually enjoy watching them play football, their fans just fucking suck so bad
