  Not sure, let me ask the folks who... oh, nevermind.

  As cold as the bottom of the North Atlantic.

  Cankles!

  "Sometimes Excel is what's available."

  I worked for a Big Company that was cutting back and dropped their Oracle contracts, forcing all the DBAs to work in Access. Then they fired all the DBAs, forcing everyone to either try to figure out Access or switch to Excel. Guess which way they went.

  In my last job at that company, my department had built an Excel spreadsheet (database) so large and full of calculations they had to request money to update our machines to 64-bit Windows and 16GB RAM just to run it.

  So stupid it's brilliant.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can a Russian pls confirm⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It was fairly common in the US decades ago, but you don't hear it as much now. You're more likely to hear it with "business" instead of "beeswax" when you do.

  Definitely not an alien invasion.

  I laughed but it still bothers me a little.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨meal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh gawd, the smell!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  When we were looking for a house, we put an offer in on one and the seller replied that they thought the offer was "insulting". We thought that was rude but it was nothing compared to this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨cooking question⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I'm trying not to imagine how awful that must smell.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨pants⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A time saver, really.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Air Jordens⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There's way more detail in the butt than seems necessary.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨And if so, one or both?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If they fits, they sits.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨:-)⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The logic is sound, but the math doesn't check out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WhatsApp is officially getting ads⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Meta has been running ads claiming no one can read your WhatsApp messages, including them. For some reason, I'm not 100% sure about this. It's hard to imagine they can resist grabbing all that data for their AI somehow.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cultural differences⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I've seen that Simpsons episode, don't do it!!!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can shoes be made in the US without cheap labour?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Can you make [fill in the blank] in the US? The answer is "yes", though depending on the product, there may be significant startup costs due to a lack of existing infrastructure and tooling.

  Can you make [fill in the blank] in the US at a competitive price? For high margin items, certainly. But for most consumer goods, it's at best "maybe".

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta rolled back protections. Now hate is surging.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Working as intended then?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Been a good couple of years⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was one of the foolish ones who hoped it wouldn't happen.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dyson Has Killed Its Bizarre Zone Air-Purifying Headphones⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Dyson has inhaled too much ozone from electric motors.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Been a good couple of years⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I joined when Apollo went silent. Coincidentally, I'm wearing my Clipollo t-shirt as I type this.
