I’m thinking of keeping timer next to me for all the time I waste literally waiting for Windows 11 to load the bloody right click menu (and other things) at work.

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

I typically hear people say it at my company because we’re all busy as hell and time in meetings is time spent not doing tasks (which are a mix of necessary and not).

We’re “getting back” the time to work, not relax

I absolutely hated it when I first watched, but it grew on me so much that by the end of the series it was by far my most favourite intro. None of the others come anywhere close.

The most recent ones are an absolute snooze fest only good for skipping

Probably whoever was writing this in plain text didn’t know about the superscript numbers in unicode ³.

Somehow I’ve seen it written as cum multiple times in my line of, and never registered it haha

Context is a hell of a drug

I’d suspect it’s a water safety thing, not wanting to drink stagnant water right next to their “kill”. The cats I’ve had have always preferred drinking running water in the bath

This is but a hypothesis, though

Me looking on from the provinces: did sum real “our dear leader” shit.

I know we won’t, but I really hope we can diversify our security partners somewhat (Australia).

Not sure if you have seen this person religiously commenting better quality versions of comics and pictures on other people’s posts, this is extremely high praise!

You’ve gained a medal from a Lemmy staple

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)

The election wasn’t rigged (in the sense you’re hoping for, or that MAGAs were alleging for the 2020 election). On a federal level it’s deeply broken because of state administration, voter suppression, loopholes allowing for billionaires to fund election campaigns and first past the post.

On a state level from what I can tell it’s much the same with a few exceptions.

I kinda doubt Musk had to do anything illegal to influence the election.

What a tease!

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.

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.

💀

If the only consequences is that they can be removed from office, that’s not really a consequence in my opinion

Ah I guess that’s fair

I’ve always hated “incompressible” when talking about fluids. It’s just shorthand for: doesn’t compress much under pressure.

In engineering unless you’re dealing with insane pressures, when something is “incompressible”, assuming it is is good enough.

But it’s still misleading so I don’t like it haha

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
