Is it socially acceptable to drink Irish coffee in the morning?

So windows updates strike again.
I ran this :
Open regedit.exe

HKeyLocalMachine\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\system\

Add 32-bit DWORD Value: LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy with a value of 1

Terminals started connecting as soon as we add that DWORD

and site started working properly as soon as it was saved.

Who's to say you just don't like your coffee with a lot of cream.

And who's to ask what type of cream you add to your coffee.

So yeah, no it's fine.

You mean your cat doesn't want to just chew on everything so they put the cat to sleep to clean its teeth.

Weirdo's

And the issue I have most with this is the way this is stated.

interest free 12 month loan for a new laptop

So if he fails to pay this back in 12 months is there a fee or rate hike?

I'm assuming the payback would be through payroll deduction - so there is no risk to the employer - that would be part of the signed agreement if he went this route.

Yeah payroll deductions. . . fun.

@WrCombs don't go this route.

Payroll deductions, I pay a percentage of the total amount. if I get a new job, they will take the remainder of what I owe out of my last check.

So you are beholden to the company and they are in fact making withholdings against your paycheck so they can get paid first.

This is loan-shark 101. I get paid first, screw you needing food, rent money or literally anything else.

Call it what you will - many companies offer this. If you aren't good enough in your fiances to the point where you're going to starve - well, that's really on you.

in this case you're trading the 'flexibility' of not paying the loan for getting an interest free loan.

As much as it may be interest free it isn't without a cost.

The supposed freedom to be able to skip paying if you find yourself needing some extra cash?
