An easy answer as it is not for a mortal to decide which gods are deserving, rather the gods must decide by whomever survives.

5 day weeks, 6 weeks per months for 30 days each, 12 months in a year, 5-6 days of celebration of the new year.

I love the idea of working 3 days and being off for 2.

I went to a game for the first time a few years ago. I recall the moment where everyone was sitting around and not doing anything because they were waiting for the commercials to finish. It felt like watching actors drop their characters the moment they step out of the spotlight.

Fucken’ hell, man!

• Eating and breathing pathways no longer intersect. This should prevent the bug when food could block the airway and result in death.

Do you think you can throw this knife into the target?

I can handle it.

“Another day in paradise.” “We’re going alright.” “Looking forward to [Quitting time/the weekend/heading home]” “Nothing worth complaining about.”

You know, if you spent your entire life living underground and never saw the sky, you’d never worry about silly little things like asteroids crashing into the planet and killing everyone.

It doesn’t mean you’ll survive any better, you just get to die ignorant.

Oh fuck yeah! So much of my research into new tools is just checking to see if they have a demo, documentation, and price.

When I’m looking for a new tool, I don’t have the time to schedule a “quick” 20 minute call to do introductions and schedule a follow-up hour long meeting followed by a quote sent over in an email days later only to find out the price is so far outside the range there is no way it’s ever going to happen!

I’m not some useless middle manager looking for any excuse to look busy; I don’t have that kind of time to waste!

Split the difference, Lemmy Ask Lemmy.

At one job we had a digital form for new user requests. This existed for auditing purposes, but it also helped to collect all the necessary information for the change. I was always impressed at how people managed to fill it out wrong every single time.

For example, I would get a request to update someone’s name and they would fail to include the former name or the new name or even enter their OWN name for one of the fields.

What I learned is no system is idiot proof, no form will ever be filled out perfectly, and everything will need manual intervention at some point.

Having a dog helps too as you have a plausible excuse to leave and a conversation topic.

Them being adversarial doesn’t really matter. The allies of today are the enemies of tomorrow and the converse, so the who shouldn’t matter. The problem is with anyone collecting data on your citizens because it can be sold, traded, stolen, or abused.

If it was about protecting people, a wide-spread countermeasure would be used instead of a pinpointed assault targeting a single app.

Thank fuck, a simple and clear marking that an average user can understand! I assume displayport compatible ports will still have that symbol, which is fine. Soon I’ll be and to price out laptops that will work with a docking station without needing to read the damn manuals!

Jazzy Chemistry sounds like the title of a textbook that is attempting to be more attractive to students.

Ah, so the answer is just to get high!

Or at least not well.

Just close the lid on that washing machine and set it for a heavy duty wash.

The windows, mirrors, and turn signals are all exposed. They at least made an effort.

Nah, honey was marketed as a coupon tool without mentioning the referral manipulation it did that is its actual business model. Those privacy extensions just need to call out that they remove referral trackers too and everything is fine with them.
