  When I was a teenager, my main source of income was online Usability testing. It was pretty inconsistent, some weeks were 10$, some were 60$, but it took fairly little effort and time. All I had to do was click through a website and narrate how my experience with it was.

  It probably pays way less nowadays, but I remember that usertesting.com was my main website for this back in the day because they paid 10$ per test (even if it’s just 10min) and had plenty of opportunities. If you want to try it, make sure to state your household income/education level/job is a bit more than it actually is. You do get more tests that way

  why is that one on a leash?

  Man, that brought up a childhood memory. As a kid, my siblings and I used to catch this specific species of Russian hoverfly that looks like a wasp on a string like that and walk around with them. Since they could hover, they didn’t even seem to mind it much and just went along with it.

  I went to the midnight release of Avengers Endgame and one guy showed up in full Iron Man Cosplay. Seeing him walk out of that theater at the end of the movie was the highlight of my entire year.

  I never learned about that was/were distinction in English class (I’m in Germany, so English is taught as a foreign language). Does anyone have some pointers on where to read up on this grammatical rule? I definitely questioned it a few weeks back but don’t remember what the context of that was.

  There’s a restaurant chain here in Germany called Frittenwerk, they specialize in Poutine-esque loaded fries. Currently, they’re also offering their usual toppings on baked potatoes instead of the fries and it’s so fucking good

  TL;DR is that it’s completely fine for the first 9 days or so

  Yes, focus on yourself and enjoy the silence is the right answer. Being able to entertain yourself is an important life skill.

  Just because I know there are people who think this meme is just a random combination due to corn being popular at the time: Corn Snakes actually exist! They’re one of the most popular species of pet snake!

  Here is an image of a Corn Snake:

  But they come in many very beautiful colors, so here’s also a link to Cornsnake listings on Morphmarket.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Devs gripe about having AI shoved down their throats⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because it’s not fun. Coming up with algorithms and elegant code is the most fun part about programming for me, and debugging pages of sloppy code is the least fun. AI makes the parts I like less fun and increases the amount of sloppy bullshit code I have to debug.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Devs gripe about having AI shoved down their throats⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been refusing to use any AI tools at all and luckily my manager respects that, even if he uses AI for basically everything he does. If the company ever decides to mandate it I’ll just have the AI write all my code and commit it with no checks. With the worker’s rights here, it’ll take several months to fire me anyways.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why isn't it considered vegan to harvest animals who die naturally?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Really depends on which lens of veganism you view it through. I usually judge things by the economic lens, where veganism is the response to capitalism incentivising the exploitation of animals. It’s probably one of the easiest ways to think about it, but essentially it goes like “As long as you don’t pay money for exploitation, you’re fine”
  So roadkill would be fine. Saving food that would be thrown out is fine. Shoplifting is fine. Served the wrong thing at the restaurant- Complain and get your money back. Second hand down jacket from a relative who would have thrown it away otherwise - gross but fine. Stealing chickens from a factory farm and eating some of their eggs- fine. Et cetera.

  I don’t think that sort of logical line can be applied to anything but individuals though. I still wouldn’t be buying leather from a company that claims to only use roadkill, as my money would still be a financial incentive to expand the operation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨*Yawn*⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Can confirm, I do struggle with empathy (more in the autism way than the socio/psychopath way though) and don’t really catch yawns from anyone. I will still pretend to yawn when someone else does though, because I know that not doing that will make them subconsciously wary of me

  Those slippery bugs really are hard to deal with

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First snake to be covered in vegan butter?!?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s really chill! I wouldn’t let her crawl around freely, because it’s way too cold in my apartment (she needs constant ambient temps of around 26-28°C during the day and 22-26°C at night). I just sometimes let her hang out on my desk or in my plant shelf supervised.
  She only bites food, and even that not very keenly. Royal pythons do have a reputation for being like “I don’t like how that rat smells/it’s got the wrong temperature/ it moves weirdly ->I’m not eating it”. She did bite my finger once because I was wiggling it around in front of her face in a spot that smelled like rat, but that’s fully on me haha. Not that the bite was bad though, (non venomous) snake bites are a total joke. They got very little bite force because their lower jaw isn’t solid, and their teeth do basically no damage because they aren’t evolved for chewing, just for holding on.
  I don’t think she minded the butter, but she wasn’t very thrilled about washing the butter off after haha. I was wiping her down with a wet towel and she didn’t like the wetness I think. Forgot all about it within 5 minutes though and happily climbed back into her house when I set her down.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First snake to be covered in vegan butter?!?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh you’d be surprised, snakes are notoriously derpy. Mine especially loves climbing as high as she can at night and falling down with a loud thump 🥲

  I mean, if you gotta transport your snake in a pinch and don’t have a heated box, body temperature might be a decent enough solution. Maybe not in the pants, but having them in a pillow case under your jacket seems perfectly fine.
