and not feeling healthy enough to have good expectations of said fluidity elsewhere.
You'd be surprised.
Also - is all that fluidity really worth all the shit you have to deal with? And being severely underpaid (it's gamedev after all)?

So... How about you try to get an interview just for shits and giggles, and only when you get an offer you start weighing all the pros and cons?

is 6 year old jelly still edible if it was sealed?
Potentially. Got some ~35-year-old stuff in store. Don't want to eat it though, not even for experimental purposes; it's blackcurrant.

And suffering acid reflux. Can't seem to lose the weight that would make it go away like last time. Probably because my stress relief drug is Pepsi instead of Marlboro.

It looks like it made it significantly larger without reducing the quality. It didn't increase the quality any, but that technology is only available to forensics labs in Miami.

@error I think you'll also find it in Las Vegas, New York, and "Cyber"

@Magus so yeah after all that, I was told to try something else, so I'm doing that now.

to get quotes from three different vendors
I'll provide you a quote!
That's actually one of the workarounds (I'll not even dare to think about the legality of it): The vendor provides us with the names of two other "resellers" which provide us with the additional two quotes.
Said "resellers" are usually their suppliers.

Another workaround is to find a supplier in another country who'll be willing to say that they'll ship it to you for an exorbitant markup. You know, the usual way of working around stupid “three quotes” rules…

@Zenith Turns out the number I can fit under the bed is 10...if I'd bought 3-inch risers instead of 2-inch risers. There's a second set of legs, which aren't necessarily a problem, but the bars that go across the bed hang down further than the bars that go up and down the side (what I measured against). Literally 1/8 of an inch is in the way so, as-is, I can only fit 6.
Probably going to order taller risers because shoving this stuff under the bed really opened up alot of space. I can almost see the floor again!

One day I'll rotate the cans under my own bed...

It's basically all over but the haggling... Which is. The least enjoyable part of this whole process
I enjoy haggling. Especially when the other party comes out with something much cheaper than my initial piss taking offer was going to be, then I try to go even lower because I don't want to seem like a pushover taking the first offer

My boss is currently looking into how we can deal with that issue.
Like everybody does ... simply create the quote requirements to fit the expected outcome. In a case like this include a compatibility requirement with existing equipment.

The algorithm works so badly because it does exactly what it was told to do.

Status: When you want to hit somebody because, after sending them step-by-step instructions to send a PayPal invoice so you can use just a credit card, they send a money request that requires you to login and use funds linked to your account.
Trying to find a way to say "send me your address so I can mail a money order you imbecile" without the hostility coming through so overtly.

What about just getting a spacer to put under the legs? I'm thinking of those things that are designed to prevent scratching a wood floor - the ones I have are about an 1/8in.

If it's blowing water, could be hard water deposits. I get those in my coffee pot unless I use filtered water. (Speaking as one who knows nothing about cpap machines...)

Yeah, there's a small amount of that in the water basin, but as far as I'm understanding a humidifier is basically a really slow distiller so what is entering the air should be clean water... Will have to research...
