The new airpods pro will support live translation.
- Comment on [deleted] 13 hours ago:
Ask her parents why they want their daughter to get married to the devil. Kidding aside, you obviously do not want a relationship with the girl, so that’s already a given. Also, if you marry her, you’re also marrying her parents. Look how they treat you now, then imagine how they will treat you once you’re their “son”-in-law.
- Comment on I member when this happened LMBO! 2 days ago:
There’s also a documentary about it on netflix. I wasn’t aware there was a lot of legal drama behind it.

That’s also the same reaction I have when I suddenly stand up and a sharp pain on my lower back hits.

Oh that pasta when through the 9 circles of hell alright.
- Comment on AT&T tracked employee attendance to find 'freeloaders.' Now, it admits the system is driving workers to the 'brink of frustration.' 3 days ago:
the system doesn't just log badge swipes at the entrance or exit; the presence report uses laptop network connections and mobile device location data to infer the hours an employee was at their assigned office.
"I now understand the level of anxiety that this report has created," Kenny said. "I also now understand how the fact that it is inaccurate is driving people to the brink of frustration, and it's creating distrust."
Imagine being a C-level and just now understanding that breathing down an employee's neck their entire workday is terrible.

Somone hit me with one fact please, I want to learn something new today.
- Comment on Microsoft mandates a return to office, 3 days per week 1 week ago:
It’s not about having zero benefits in the office, it’s about giving people the choice to do what works for them. Some people like working in the office, then go ahead. Some people prefer to work at home, let them. The problem is companies forcing everyone to do one thing when everyone works differently.
I’m fully remote but I voluntarily go to the office once a week (as much as possible) primarily to socialize with coworkers and maybe do some in-person meetings if the timing is right. I would hate it if I was mandated to go once a week, because I prefer the flexibility.

- Comment on A goodbye to kbin ... 1 week ago:
I fully moved to piefed.zip from lemmy.zip. It’s great! Prior to .zip, I was on lemm.ee. I specifically chose .zip when .ee closed down because they have similar policies.

Only thing I can think of is a deep fried spring roll can be pretty sharp at the edges and can tear the delicate skin there.
- Comment on [Episode] DAN DA DAN Season 2 • Dandadan 2nd Season - Episode 10 discussion 1 week ago:
Wow that new is annoying lol. I’m sure his character will develop later on, but that first introduction did him no favors.
Also, can someone confirm - the flashbacks end in the unintentional kiss right?
- Comment on Loops - short form video with ActivityPub - is now open source! 1 week ago:
Good to know it’s still moving forward. I thought the project died because I’ve never really heard anything since the initial promotion of it a couple of months back.
- Comment on Nexar Turns Dashcams into ‘Virtual CCTV Cameras.’ Then Hackers Got In 1 week ago:
Welp, I was planning to buy a Nexar dual-cam (front and cabin-facing). I didn't know their cameras could transmit data and aren't local only. Time to look for another option.
- Comment on It's efficient. 2 weeks ago:
I need to figure out how to mix in lactase drops into a dense dessert like a blizzard, because mixing the entire contents of the cup makes it soft faster.
- Comment on Let us celebrate our mutual experience of close proximity by touching our multi-fingered appendages to one another's - Person who invented the handshake, probably. 2 weeks ago:
One silver lining from the pandemic was that fist bumps became more common in lieu of handshakes. Some people's hands can be filthy.
- Comment on "Wait, was that shampoo? Yeah.. Welp, I guess we're washing our body with shampoo today." 2 weeks ago:
Also to add: Even shampoo can dry your hair out because it still strips the oil from your hair/scalp to clean it. Conditioner will help replenish it.
- Comment on Charmin bear knows he's getting a pink slip soon 2 weeks ago:
There are actual portable bidet products you can buy online.
- Comment on Simple solutions rule 2 weeks ago:
Berserk would probably be at that level as well.
- Comment on Imgur's Community Is In Full Revolt Against Its Owner 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, I only found out maybe last year that there's a whole community underneath it. Up until then I thought it was simply just an image hosting site.
- Comment on Taco Bell Says 'No Más' to AI Drive-Thru Experiment 2 weeks ago:
working a drive thru is actually quite complex and difficult
Especially in the US where you can customize and substitute almost everything in your order. If it was a simple fixed menu where you can’t really do anything else but pick whatever is listed, maybe AI can somewhat work.

What’s the smart nerve taking a detour one?

That’s actually cool!
- Comment on Let's put ice in the wine and chocolate in the hummus 3 weeks ago:
Chocolate flavored hummus is actually pretty great. Makes a great dessert dip.
- Comment on LPT: Go get a shot, now. 3 weeks ago:
Supposed to be released very soon (as in days, not weeks). The real LPT is to wait for the new version first.
- Comment on Seems legit. 3 weeks ago:
To be fair, heat does cause it to hang low and stretch the skin, therefore reducing the wrinkles.
- Comment on Become irreplaceable 3 weeks ago:
I thought it was some kind of steampunk samurai until I read the caption.
- Comment on Is it realistic to hope that lemmy grows to the size of the bigger social media platforms? 3 weeks ago:
I don’t think so. The barrier to entry is pretty low but the average internet user still can’t get over it, so I don’t think it will ever become mainstream.
- Comment on Uncanny likenesses 3 weeks ago:
Yeah I’m aware how lacking the animated versions are.
- Comment on OpenMower: Let's upgrade cheap off-the-shelf robotic mowers to modern, smart RTK GPS based lawn mowing robots! 3 weeks ago:
I just bought a Mammotion robot mower 2 months ago. It’s been working well and I only have minor complaints. I definitely would’ve looked into this if I hadn’t gotten my mower yet. Note that so far the author can only guarantee it works on only one model, the one they tested it on.
