WORK, WORK, WORK

thawed_caveman,

what? i was quoting rihanna

thawed_caveman,

This is why you keep spare pads or tampons or we.

The one day you don’t have them, that’s when the worse will happen

thawed_caveman,

Found the answer:

But the stigma regarding Android phones is mostly an American phenomenon, at least to the degree to which it affects purchase habits. Worldwide, per the same Statcounter report, Androids represent the significant majority of all smartphones, holding a 71% share of sales compared with Apple’s 28%.

thawed_caveman,

Yeah, my answer to “has the Reddit exodus killed the former Lemmy culture” is “what culture lmao”

Not that i was on Lemmy before, but i was on Mastodon before Elon bought Twitter and it was a ghost town.

thawed_caveman,

I wonder what’s the fastest you could go on tracks? Apparently a record was set in 1979 (121.9 km/h, 75 mph) and never broken since as far as i can tell, or at least Guiness doesn’t seem to know anything about it.

Fellas, we need a tank, a couple V8 engines, and a case of beer

thawed_caveman,

That’s about the most expensive fursuit you can buy, it goes much lower than that. Still low car money though

thawed_caveman,

I haven’t had a normal job since before covid so i’m not super qualified, but:

I think big companies tend to think rationally in terms of cost/benefit

I think they sometimes do, but not always. The reason being that companies are made of people, and people sometimes but not always think rationally.

In this case, my guess is middle management may be fretting about leaving employees unsupervised. What if they play games or browse Twitter on company time? You can’t monitor them when they’re not in the office!

Inspirational wish-wash like “we value the power of working together” strikes me as common corporate wish-wash. It’s sort of along the lines of “we’re a family here”. They’re trying to make employees emotionally invested in the corpo so they’ll put up with more bullshit.

I’ve been helping a Chinese company and it includes getting on the phone at 9am to talk to them right as they’re leaving the office. For an international team there can be time zone issues like that, but if you can find overlap between Europe and China then you can find overlap between anywhere

thawed_caveman,

Oh yeah, power in a corporation goes top down, and it figures that top management likes it that way.

There’s definitely safety to be found in the familiar, i do it a lot, whenever i have to do something unfamiliar i will often let myself get overwhelmed trying to consider all the tiny implications. Eventually though the experience from early adopters will enlighten other companies. It’s a lot easier to take a decision like this when other people have done it and you have data to see what the results were. In the case of work from home, this process is already well underway, it’s been three years since covid and there’s already a lot of data that you can point to.

thawed_caveman,

I’ve been getting my Galaxies from Craigslist

thawed_caveman,

I don’t know, but Mozilla (the org that makes Firefox) also makes a VPN, and you can set it to apply to Firefox only.

thawed_caveman,

Any date format can be unambiguous as long as it’s the one that everyone agrees on, and all date formats will be ambiguous as long as we have several in use.

I kinda gave up, nowadays when i write a date to someone i specify the date format. Like i will send “01/05/2024 (DD/MM/YYYY)” because it’s the only way to be sure

thawed_caveman,

I wonder if they’re old enough to have been there. For people within a pretty narrow age range, it could be interesting to react the way they saw adults react around them, except they’re adults now.

I wouldn’t have much to contribute, i just remember people talking about something i didn’t undersatnd but retrospectively seems to have been 9/11

thawed_caveman,

I’m guilty of this as a mod sometimes. When i remove a comment i don’t want to leave a hole in the thread, because then people will see replies to a deleted comment and wonder what they said; so i remove the replies as well, resulting in this.

It’s pick your poison i guess

thawed_caveman,

This is the only reason i bought crocs, it’s exclusively so i can wear them with socks.

Actually they’re knockoff crocs. They’re super slippery, it rained today and i was risking death with every step

thawed_caveman,

I’ve never worn them, but Crocs would have gotten sued out of existence if they were as slippery as my knockoffs

thawed_caveman,

This is what i came for, i wanted to know what these features are. Thanks for saving me a click

thawed_caveman,

This seems like rage bait. The smug british stereotype is too perfect.

thawed_caveman,

Thanks for sharing your knowledge of ancient Hindu scripture, SexualPolytope.

thawed_caveman,

Physical buttons. Sometimes an app or the OS itself will fuck up and not show you the home or back button for example.

I would miss headphone jacks but any phone worth buying still comes with those… for now

thawed_caveman,

I love that transcription

thawed_caveman,

Aw man, Battlebit is sweaty? That’s surprising and disappointing
