• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Coming on Lemmy and complaining because there are too many Linux users is like going in to a brothel and complaining that there are too many hookers⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not who you were talking to but most people who have a PC at home aren’t installing an OS on it. They’re using windows cause that’s what came out of the box. Most of us windows users wouldn’t go out of our way to install windows if Linux came preprogrammed. It’s more convenient to not install any damn thing.

  We used goo gone in a facility I once worked in where we had to remove stickers from plastic totes. Nothing got rid of the adhesives as quickly or easily. Theres like half a dozen different solvents in goo gone, I definoverprnot just brand name acetone.

  That’s not even a swastika it’s a 45. It just really feels like it’s a swastika when you see the fanta fascist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is going to happen when AI becomes extremely advanced?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So similar stuff has happened throughout history with the coming of more advanced technology. There use to be entire rooms of secretaries in order to do clerical work that has been replaced by Microsoft Office Suite. Their replacement by technology did not cause a total collapse of society so I don’t see why this would?

  It might make the world worse and drive down the standard of living for many but a total upheaval? If humans made it through the industrial age we’ll likely make it through the second technology age too. We won’t be unscathed but mankind survived the invention of the computer which was probably equally (or maybe more) disruptive.

  You don’t get spousal support because someone was a sperms donor to you or had a short term affair with you. That’s not how spousal support works.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Parfait au pork⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve had one that used baked beans in place of the pork. It was delicious. From the examples I’ve seen the cup started from food trucks where it was more convenient to had out a cup than a plate. Now restaurants are picking up the cup thing cause it’s a “trend”.

  Not the person you were responding too but I’d love to learn more about these toys/tech. Are there some key words that would help me search? I’m having some trouble sifting through the search results.

  Didnt Ben Franklin have a basement filled with bones because of a dissection school he ran? I don’t know that it would have helped his performance in bed but the man definitely had some anatomy lessons along the way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨histories mysteries⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  These devices are rather small and most amphora seem to be much larger. The shape of amphora helped with shipping, so they were typucally larger than a device that can fit in your hand.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨RAW DATA⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Cellulose powder is wood pulp. It doesn’t really have nutritional value and is often used in the production of certain medicine types as well, but it is definitely wood.

  Cellulose Powder

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Users ditch Glassdoor, stunned by site adding real names without consent⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  By Lemmy standards I’m perversely unconcerned with my privacy. But I just updated all my glassdoor info to wildly incorrect stuff (name, location, industry, job title, etc) then deleted it. Even for me this is a bridge too far.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How does employing a rapist not constitute an unsafe work environment for female employees?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Many US based companies also do pre-employment background checks. So either OP works for a company that doesn’t or they work for a “second chance” company that is OK with violent backgrounds. Either way the company is fine with his background and is very unlikely to fire him for something they likely knew about at hire.

  You mean “at-will” states and that functionally means any state but Montana.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨CEOs say generative AI will result in job cuts in 2024⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Some of the autoststems are dead ends too that hang up on you. When i run into those I’ve started just telling them I have a billing issue or that I need to purchase some additional product from them. The phone system will push you to a person really fast if they believe you’re buying something. Then the sales person can transfer you to the department you want to talk to rather than trying to navigate the maze of dead ends in some systems.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is wage theft exactly?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s the most common way I’ve heard it used in business settings. So it’s very audience dependant.

  I knew a guy who worked in wallpaper, he insisted that sales would stay up after 2020 because this was the “new normal”…would not listen to anyone who asked him what would happen when the post-pandemic housing market slowed and the government stimulus checks dried up…he couldn’t even conceive of a market turn, this guy was teaching night classes to college students…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Way to stop drinking⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Did you do this OP? Cause I’ve seen something similar as a joke Christmas gift. It doesn’t seem like a great way to stop someone drinking but it is might be a funny gift. Especially to someone who isn’t very handy and won’t be able to get through the casing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨(Bad) dog owners be like⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I hate when people let their off leash dogs run up to my leashed dogs (we only walk in leash required areas). They always yell “they’re friendly” And I have to yell back “mine arent”. A suprising number of people still just mosey over slowly half-heartedly calling their dog while lm actively backing up and restraining my growling dog. One of my dogs is a rescue and she will fight anything if it charges her, a dog, a bike, a horse - she does not care.

  Some people should not be allowed to have a dog.

  Vin Diesels real name is Mark Sinclair and weve all accepted that too. Marilyn Manson’s name is Brian Warner and Alice Cooper was born Vincent Furnier. Stage names are pretty common with performers

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft exec says OpenAI employees can join with same compensation⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not arguing they are, but that they aren’t relevant at all in this case. They aren’t even designed to address this situation (binding or otherwise).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft exec says OpenAI employees can join with same compensation⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Most non-poaching clauses in non-competes specify that the person signing it can’t recruit employees from their old work, usually for X number of years. Microsoft almost certainly didn’t sign any non-competes and unless Sam Altman is the one making this offer there aren’t any non-compete violations happening.
