ah yes, because providing the opportunity for true work experience in return for pay is such a terrible thing

The problem with how bright they are nowadays is that the downwards angle required to not blind people in regular driving conditions like small slopes is ridiculous and severely restricts how far you can see
they’re just too bright now
- Comment on kya 3 days ago:
It’s the brightness primarily, but yes made worse by the height

I always find it funny when somebody with blinding headlights is driving towards me and I flash them, only for there to be some barely discernible change in their lights that I soon realize was them flashing me back
not that I could fucking tell a difference
- Comment on Why do we still joke about setting up old wooden guillotines? 4 days ago:
that’s just a wood chipper on less of an angle and with the blade shown
and a bigger blade because it doesn’t have the stiffening framework behind
- Comment on Why do we still joke about setting up old wooden guillotines? 4 days ago:
I like your approach here of making a clearly wrong statement just to get more activity on this important topic
I will add yet another comment that guillotines are neither complicated nor require much material. you could make a sturdy one with less than a dozen 2x4s, some screws, a scrap piece of rope, and whatever junk metal you have lying around that’s around 24x8 (which you need regardless of how fancy the frame itself is)
that said, mobile ones seem like they would also have a purpose

I reuse them probably a lot longer than I should. but like, yeah, plastic waste. sure it’s not much, but it’s the principle
keeps me flossing pretty much daily though, and my teeth are better for it. cleaner anyways
- Comment on what's a good answer to placate the c-suite if you're accused of lacking motivation and being unfriendly? 5 days ago:
idk if it’s a good answer or not but I am just brutally honest
I’m good at my job and I exceed expectations and my peers. if somebody has a problem with my lack of attitude on my work, well, I don’t really care, what are they gonna do, get rid of me? poor business decision
- Comment on what's a good answer to placate the c-suite if you're accused of lacking motivation and being unfriendly? 5 days ago:
yeah I intend it to come across that way when I say something like this
there’s not much motivation in my circumstances, and I’m tired of repeating it like a broken record, so now I say less specific things

- Comment on Excel's AI: 20% of the time, it works every time 6 days ago:
yep. it’s the one tool that is incredibly versatile in the workplace and for which I do not have a replacement
are there better tools? quite often. would those tools be able to be used by anybody opening the files you are sharing with them? nope. and keeping things in the same format means it’s very easy to move data across files and link things up.
forms, trackers, calculations, data logging, all easy to reference/transfer to one another and I can expect anybody on my team to be able to work with files I send them without having to teach them how to use a different program

I’m gonna have to “upgrade” at work soon and it’s going to suck
I got a new computer with win11 a year or so ago. I made them buy me a win10 license because I couldn’t do my job anymore. fucking file explorer doesn’t even work on win11. astounding

you wouldn’t? not if the cost and convenience was right? just out of principle, regardless of value?
I could see doing it if I had more time to game

- Comment on Thoughts about responsibility 1 week ago:
I’m also very pro accountability.
I once screwed up and got into a minor fender bender once. just a pushed in plastic panel on the other guys car, and a scrape on mine. immediately owned up to it and said yeah my bad and got his info and paid him back for it after he got a repair quote
nowadays, I would first judge the person in order to determine how I act. do they look like someone that cares about how their actions affect others? if not, then I’m going to treat them how they probably treat me. leave a shopping cart in the middle of the sidewalk? fuck you. have a giant ass car with LED headlights on pointing directly into a restaurant when you’re not even in the car? fuck you. tailgate the shit out of me for no reason? fuck you. blow a stop sign and nearly run me over in the marked crossing? fuck you. have your shit laid out all over the bus and a bunch of people are getting on? fuck you. standing in the middle of the whatever blocking people from going by and you goddamn well know you’re in the way? fuck you.
my point is that I am only going to bother treating other people well so long as they don’t seem like they don’t treat others well. otherwise, I’m just following the golden rule
