Same here. There’s a few set hours of the day we have to be there but otherwise so long as you get your 40 hours in over the course of the week you’re alright. In all the office jobs I’ve worked there wasn’t really such a thing as “being late” or even being late back from lunch

I’m glad it’s back, but I really wish they’d hand the reins over to someone new. RTD’s writing has been really poor the past two series.

I love mine. It’s pretty unobtrusive but there’s a ton of open-source applications available on the store. Probably the most similar to the original Pebble (besides the new pebbles of course) right down to the MIP display. Tried a pinetime but it’s very limited by comparison and an IPS screen on a smartwatch is a terrible idea.

I don’t think this place is big enough yet for my conspiracy theory to make any sense, but if I was the CEO of a company like Reddit and I wanted to prevent users moving to Lemmy I would make a bunch of accounts on here and spark as much drama and infighting as possible. And there’s been so much of it lately, whether it be callout posts on different instances or people concern trolling under posts, that it does feel so inorganic. When you come on here hoping for a better place and you see users writing mini manifestos calling out another user’s character flaws, it is extremely offputting.

This is why I need to have a room set aside as an office when I next move house. Having the work laptop in my living room means I can be doing something at the weekend or on a day off and get a pang of panic that I need to be back at my laptop.

I’ve gotten more aggressive with blocks lately. Feels like there’s been a lot more arguing and drama on here lately than usual, and I haven’t been on as much because of it. Blocking at least drowns a lot of that out.

Number 18 is the only one that really threw me…I thought there was something weird about the glasses and cutlerly in the 2nd photo but the first one just had more of the general AI vibe. And it ended up I should have trusted my eyes over vibes

I said it’s not a cow. Steak generally refers to cow meat but if we can use it for fish, why not plant-based foods too?

Editing to add, OP seems to just be trolling everyone in the comments on the other threads so I’m just gonna block and move on .

I understand it for terms that are unequivocally an animal product, like eggs and pork. But burgers and sausages can be made from so many things that it makes it really clear this is just a bribe for animal farmers. Even steak isn’t necessarily from cows since you can have things like tuna steak, so why would a plant steak be any different?

Ours was “{town} Free Wi-Fi” when we lived in the town centre for a while, just to confuse tourists. It was more of a getting stabbed area than a fun SSID name area though.

I much prefer my powder inhaler because I can feel the difference much faster, but yeah it wouldn’t be great in an asthma attack situation. It’s not something you can take a quick puff of, and the lever mechanicism on most of them would be impossible to operate in quick succession while struggling to breathe. My local practice doesn’t like to give out reliever inhalers anymore, as they believe if you need a reliever then really it’s your preventative inhaler that needs to be increased in dosage, and it just means if I’m sick with the cold or something then I’m totally reliant on the slower powder inhaler to get air into my lungs. There’s a cruel irony to the fact that climate change has caused an increase in asthma and now we’re being blamed for causing it with our evil lifesaving medication.

Definitely. I think likewise with snakes & ladders, the concept was good but because of the placement of Phil and Ania’s snakes & ladders it was over too quickly for four of them. It probably would have worked better for them each to do someone else’s board design, rather than all five on the one board.

Are we just copying the ‘free speech zones’ from the US during the Iraq war now?

I really don’t like this route the UK has went down the past few years. The Tories cracking down on protests, people being arrested for holding “not my king” signs or even just blank pieces of paper in the vicinity of the king, and now all this bullshit from Labour to crack down on pro-Palestinian protestors.
