Hurling Subway sandwiches at cops is probably the best use of them. They aren’t fit for human consumption

A friend and I have a saying about femme fatale women: I wouldn’t even try to fix her; I’d let her make me worse

He’s gonna need a big ol’ cable

Millennials losing their minds over this when we used to shout ‘fuck your couch!’ and Rick James, Bitch! all the time, before memes were a thing.

I suppose memes have always been memes, but they were simply auditory before

That’s super shitty dude. No one deserves that.

This is amazing. we’re called dirt sniffers in industry, as we often smell for hydrocarbons to determine if soil is contaminated - or in my case, if the naturally occurring hydrocarbons were present, and should be avoided during soil salvage operations

Hey ma! My little dirt sniffing community made the news!

Howling

My dearest Fossil! Congratulations! Super proud of you dude - that’s not a small feat. My M.Sc. damn near did me in.

out of all the comments in this thread, yours is probably the best thought out. I’ll admit, I’m very much in line with OP, in that the more someone hypes something up, the less I want to do with it. I get increasingly skeptical, and that gets seriously compounded when I see C-suites give nebulous answers on how things will improve with a new invention.

I think it’ll find its niche, but right now, the fucking thing can barely do math, and is at best, a learned pig. There’s really big barriers to making AI actually useful, such as the scalability and energy/water requirements. Until we can get elegant coding and inputs, we’re going to struggle.

The internet is for conveying digital gunshots, and that’s about it. don’t hate the player, hate the game

Atmospheric black and reporting. It’s wonderful writing music

I think your admin can appoint you

You seem to think I, of all people, would post quality content.

If it makes me smirk, it ends up on Lemmy.

Careful, those boys will come after you

Things I said before becoming a dad, go.

This is a valid meme, but garbage in, garbage out. their chicken breast consisted of >50% soy and couldn’t legally be called chicken anymore. Their buns smell awful, and that smell permeates everything. Nothing like biting into one of those bad boys that you ordered at 7 am, at lunch time, after it’s been smushed and jostled around in your cruise vest all day.

For the past 5 years I have been living proof that we do not need to be huddled together in one place to effectively do our jobs. I will die on this hill. Me too, thanks.

I get to enjoy the space I pay for, the way I want to, and as long as that isn’t negatively impacting my ability to do my job, I will not be convinced that it’s somehow not as efficient or as good as working in an office.

don’t forget the flexibility for things like kid drop off etc. If you have to duck out early you can easily make up the time at night or whatever.

IMO, the only reasons we are being forced into returning to the office is for middle management to feel like they’re doing something by literally looking over your shoulder, and so that business owners can justify spending so much money on the property where their office exists. Either they want to keep leasing the space from their fat cat real estate friends, or they need to somehow justify owning a large piece of land because their company is so big and successful, and they can waive their big building around like a dick to impress all the other CEOs.

preach

I agree with everything. I do damn good work, and while they have encouraged/mandated hybrid RTO, I just don’t go. No one calls me out on it other than the occasional ‘hey, it’d be good to see you again here for the next monthly meeting’. I’m happy to go if I NEED to go to the office, to meet a client or what have you, but otherwise, go eat a heaping bag of farts.

no? maybe?
