That works so excellently for the military. You’re technically able to be called back in at any time, but you’re also allowed to drink when you could reasonably expect to have that time off.
And the clincher; you’re not allowed to be drunk on duty, so they can’t even say “no worries, I’ll pick you up” without implicating whoever ordered you in
Can somebody seriously fit that entire thing inside them? That seems like it would cause internal organ damage to genuinely fit it all in :/
I’ve always heard it’s intelligence that tells us tomatoes are fruit, but wisdom tells to use it like a vegetable in cooking
I believe this meme qualifies as taking a shot back
I’m going to my second session in a few hours :)
After a few years in jobs where violence is expected and treated as “bad ass”, I’m finally seeing how my exposure to it has frayed my sense of self.
To be clear, I think they were asking about streaming torrents. Stremio with torrentio addon, for example.
Interesting that it specifically says each phone was supposed to get one alert, and that it can tell if your phone is set to see English or Spanish and send the appropriate language. I just got two alerts a few minutes apart, in English and Spanish
I’ve always assumed the issue is that I don’t need my chest and arms to walk around around all day. If they’re sore, I’m not constantly reminded :P
1980 was 43 years ago :P
Don’t pay at all, use sponsorblock and revanced
I had to install a network adapter driver the other day. Had to use my wife’s computer to download into a flash drive and bring it over to my computer with zero network connectivity.
Granted, this only happened because my network card was broken.
Thermonuclear take; the kind of work it takes to perform well in school is exactly the kind of work society is preparing kids for, so good school performance can still be a strong indication they’ll be good employees.
Wether or not our society and schools are right for that is a much more interesting topic of debate. Kids who crush it in school (and continue to crush it all the way through college) will go on to make their companies loads of money for cheap.
Depends on a lot of things. I started an apprenticeship machining, and now I want to turn my garage into a machine shop.
I think the important thing is that you make sure you keep some of it for you.
If I did turn my garage into a machine shop, it would be tempting to start taking orders. That’s where my hobby would turn into more work, having to meet orders and timelines.
Music streaming is just … Objectively better for everybody. Small bands can be heard, hence the indy scene booming so hard, consumers can access their content anywhere there’s internet.
I think you miss the ritual around getting physical media and having a session where you just sit back and listen to the album for the first time. You could try to replicate it, but I think child-like wonder was the main ingredient ;)
That’s what I keep saying. I keep getting told I’m wrong though, that Lemmy needs to be easier to join, and hit critical mass and become the reddit killer because that’s the only way we can exist.
Like, no thank you. I’m happy with Lemmy NOW, I don’t need it to keep growing!
That’s how I feel right now. I don’t need the Fediverse to replace reddit and Twitter, I want it to be a refuge from the commercialized crap! The people who can’t be bothered to figure out Lemmy or Mastodon can stay right where they are!
I have always wondered what the virgin-ness means, anybody know?
Interesting, I’ve read / heard that cats heal themselves through purring but even that was just a guess with the next leading theory being that they’ll purr when in pain to comfort themselves.
