I’m attending an all day workshop tomorrow with a bunch of leaders at my job and I expect this is a better summary of the upcoming proceedings than anything else in existence.

Seriously. Can we stop this ridiculous obsession with “generational” comparisons, please, and the click bait that goes with it? Let’s instead start learning empathy and stop trying to force fit everything into an arbitrary category. Can we really not, collectively, as a species, grasp nuance and the eternally changing state of everything?
Probably not, but here’s to hoping.
Put your salami in that and it’s gonna come out looking like chorizo
Pure poetry. Your words have convinced me to keep my junk outta exotic fruits.
Absolutely. Nothing suffered or died to produce it so I wouldn’t consider it unethical. I realize most people wouldn’t be able to get past the “human” label.
Edit: not actually a vegan so not sure my vote counts in this thread.
Genuinely the best thread on Lemmy in a fortnite. Thank you.
Best of luck, friend. Hope everything works out for you.
Had a plumber friend joke that what he learned in plumbing school was, “Shit flows downhill and payday is Friday.” As an adult I think plumbers really earn their money when the shit is flowing the wrong direction. Here’s to a great career filled with… Interesting challenges.
Is your farm specialty growing plants or animals? Or both?
My family has dabbled in chickens, horses, and goats. But we can’t grow a plant that isn’t a weed.
You deserve a raise! On Lemmy, at least.
If you work for a large-ish company you should look into getting ergonomic accomodations sooner than later. In the US anyway many companies want to avoid the workman’s comp claims from repetitive stress injuries like carpal tunnel and whatever debilitating circulation issues sitting in a crap chair 8 hours daily causes.
First, good on you. As a corpo wage slave who would not be good at either dressing up or removing said dressing, color me envious.
Second, any particular fandom pay the bills better than others?
Now that I’m asking I realize I probably don’t actually want to know.
I love the vagueness! Could be many things and sets the imagination whirring.
I also love this comment because it implies the existence of an “unhelpful professional” which is a wonderful distinction.
Your money or someone else’s?
I taught myself to weld (poorly, of course) but I love the satisfaction of joining two pieces of metal well, and getting in the zone and laying down a clean bead to be proud of.
I often wondered but don’t know any welders to ask personally… Does doing it professionally take the fun out of it?
It has been a minute but I want to say maybe BNA Nashville Airport had them.
Regardless, it looked like this.
I have seen these in airport parking garages - green when the spot is empty, red when occupied and visible from the end of the aisle.
What really blew my mind was seeing the exact same functionality for stalls in the restroom.
That’s either stupid as hell or utterly brilliant. Either way, I want it.
It is a DIY setup. We had one of those bottle setups like you describe. For my big dogs all it did was slowly become more slobber than water. I realized the problem wasn’t more water but getting rid of the slobber.
Post above describes what I did if you’re interested.
It is a DIY setup. Basically is a sink bowl with the logic of a sump pump with high/low floats (couple of relays and sensors), a fountain pump to drain to a nearby sink, and a valve to fill. The timer drains the water every hour and the fill part is essentially a cheap shower head aimed at an angle so when it is draining and filling at the same time the water is swirling, making it (mostly) self-cleaning. I wipe the inside and outside every week or so just to make sure it is working and isn’t growing anything.
Biggest worry since it is DIY is that something will fail and flood my house. I have a separate high level sensor that closes the valve, starts the pump, and sounds an alarm to help with that, and one of those cheap, warbling 9v water sensors nearby just in case.
Just finished restoring an old Jeep and had the brand new fuel pump give up within the first tank of regular gas. Everyone I talked to the first thing they asked was, “Did you use ethanol free gas?” Like it was some street smarts thing I should have known.
I would have thought by now any component built in the last decade would be built to withstand modern gasoline mixes. Joke’s on me.
