The celebrations when Thatcher died we’re very appropriate

I wasn’t even aware there were any because the client I use (Voyager) doesn’t have them.

My 5D chess move would be:

• Go: ok bet, you wanna shut it down? Your stores are now in immediate administration under some eminent domain law
• In order to mitigate political backlash, make it known that they’re able to sell their business to someone else, or the city, provided that the subsequent owner is bound to either run it, or sell it to the city

Watch them get mad because you haven’t technically seized it, they can still sell the business (maintaining the sacrosanct rights to private property capitalists love so much), you’ve just prevented them from closing it down, and everyone gets to keep their jobs :)

If I were near the equator: is this a joke I’m too 0° lat to understand?

It’s not the multiple partners that are a problem in my opinion (You do you. Polyamory is not for me, but no hate), it’s the many-to-one relationships. Even in cases where an immoral power dynamic doesn’t exist, you’re still setting up for societal shenanigans if it’s consistently many women to men, or vice versa, which seems prudent to avoid.

That being said, monogamy in a legal sense has probably only persisted so long because involving more than 2 people would be a massive headache for the courts lol

Probably only works in countries where one “partner” has more rights than others.

Your boss would be breaking the law in Australia, now explicitly under the new right to disconnect legislation, if they said anything about it.

(Though, could have probably been argued in the past also as unpaid overtime in the past)

Work forced our update and it’s massively slowed down everyone’s computers.

The IT guy gave me this knowing look when I came to ask if I could do anything about it.

Nope.

Bloody ridiculous because in terms of functionality it’s a step backwards in many areas, some decent little improvements in very few areas, and overall trash performance.

Really wish they had paid for extended security updates.

And then there was light!

@gofsckyourself@lemmy.world who art in heaven, save us from this peril

If we know each other, I’d tell you in a heartbeat. On the internet where someone will just vacuum it up into their dataset? Not a chance.

Ah I guess that’s fair

This would be diabolic. No one makes something due at a time ending 59 other than 23:59.

I could totally imagine this happening by mistake, due to 12 hr time error.

I wish people would talking in 24 hour time, even

I haven’t seen it, but the problem is that dairy is consumed to ungodly levels in the US, and even mandatory for school food programs, I believe. The problem with dairy is the myth that it’s vital to a healthy diet, despite like 50% or more of the world not being able to properly digest it.

If it’s addictive, then seems like a bit of an issue if it’s being pushed on kids.

It’s not gonna kill you in moderation, though.

The US really has a weird obsession with cheese, in my opinion. I live in Australia, a western country with the majority having European ancestry. As such cheese is consumed, in large qualities also. But my lordy, the US is on a whole other level with cheese.

The most revolting thing I’ve seen is “gooey” liquid cheese “sauce”.

🤢🤢🤢🤢 Yikes.

Haha, sorry for the rant, kind internet stranger, I am glad you enjoy your cheese, and if it makes you happy, then bless your heart, even if I don’t understand personally

I don’t mind cheese, but I have never understood the obsession with piles of cheese.

Cheese pizza has never made sense to me. Margarita is already plenty of cheese to topping ratio.

Just enough cheese to hold it together. That’s it, that’s the right amount of cheese (my opinion, of course)

I recently came across the question whether cheese or sauce is more fundamental to pizza.

The sauce. It’s 100% the sauce.

I’m going to enjoy this haha

Not Papstmobil?

This is the real answer, what engineer worth their salt is hiding margins in pi?

Clearly define that

Thanks for the response! Still, why would you do this, and not just use pi?

I’m not following what the purpose of rounding pi is

PI() is the function a spreadsheet, if that helps ;)

Please give me peace haha

I finally found you, an engineer actually using π=3 (or 4 as you say), and not just people making fun of it.

I am also an engineer, but I’m going to wager much more recently graduated (worked 3.5 years).

Who hurt you?

Like, I get it, in a world before calculators, but there’s a button on the calculator, in your spreadsheet, in whatever program that approximates pi to many, many, many digits.

Putting in a design/safety margins into pi seems like a strange choice.

Sincerely, an engineer looking for answers on this π=3 meme.

Even if it’s back of the napkin first past approximation. You have a phone calculator. Please use it for our collective peace haha

(All jibes in jest, I’m genuinely curious)
