BarrelAgedBoredom,

Have you tried buying the newest product?

9point6, in We thought AI would take over but we forgot about the ants

There’s 4 "and"s in that sentence. For some reason I expected better sentence structure from a librarian.

Klear, (edited )

It’s a perfectly valid stylistic choice for a silly sentence like this.

They’re readers not writers at the end of the day.

BetaDoggo_, in F#€k $pez

Smaller communities aren’t necessarily a bad thing. Compared to reddit I rarely feel like I’m commenting into the void.

icepuncher69,

Ive seen that in reddit shadowbanning is rampant on new accounts, so mayve that has to do with something. Specially if you have been banned before.

ugh,

What’s the easiest way to find communities across different instances? If I could figure that out, I would just forget about reddit.

Grimm,
GardeningSadhu,

Exactly, lemmy needs to grow but if it just continues to grow and grow eventually it will just turn into what reddit is now. I’m happy to have something small to be a part of for now… i don’t think you needed me to tell you this but they say commenting is good for lemmy, so here i am

obinice, in There's some kind of use for this lighter I can't put my finger on...
@obinice@lemmy.world avatar

I genuinely don’t know what market this is for.

Cigarettes don’t benefit from this, and we already have long ones for lighting the stove or wood burner.

What’s this stubby one for?

Snazz,

I actually use one of these for work. It fits comfortably in my pocket and don’t burn my fingers when I have to light up a bunch of sterno burners.

wizzor,

In case you are serious, it’s for lighting pipes.

ji17br,

Do people have issues lighting pipes with normal lighters?

Agrivar,

No.

wizzor,

I have no idea, never tried, but I can imagine it’s easier when your fingers don’t need to be so close…

lugal, in Desperate to afford food

I once had 2 interviews for jobs with different skill sets and the same HR person was there. It felt weird to be passionate about both

marcos,

I’m passionate about quite a lot of things.

A day job isn’t one of those, but it’s not a single-use line.

This is a McD0nblds advertisement for free.

Their “iced cream” is made from diseased rapist AIDS jizz and diarrhea.

Every time you make a joke about McD0nblds “iced cream machine broken” R0nbld McD0bnld knife-rapes a baby girl.

The “here” part of the question changes the entire meaning of the question, rendering the stated answer completely off topic (cause, you know, “here” is not the only place you can earn money for food).

Sabre363,

In this hypothetical situation, it is where we are requesting an adequate sum of the monies to pay for the required sustenance. Any place may do, but this is the place the responded for an interview. And if my experience is anything to go by, then this is the only place to respond out of hundreds of applications.

Fixbeat,

Since you don’t know what it’s like to work there, it’s a dumb question. The only thing you can really comment on is the business side of things. They either do cool stuff or they don’t. If they don’t you have to lie and say how stoked you are to make their boring products.

Companies compete with one another, and that means the conditions of employment tend to be comparable from one employer to another. What the employees get is largely superficial choice, similar to how you get 50 brands of chips that are all basically the same. That’s capitalist relations in a nutshell.

WarmSoda, (edited )

Yes, let’s “acdurrally” a meme.

BCsven, in You liar!

Must be a Welsh machine. I’ll be there now, in a minute.

jonne,

The labelling is in Dutch, so it’s either a Dutch or a Flemish machine.

BCsven,

It was a joke, since the Welsh say “I’ll do it now, straight away” for immediately, but “Now, in a minute” for I’ll do it, but have no estimate of when it will get done.

Kyouki,

to go full circle, it’s a samsung eco bubble of sorts. I have one myself as a dutchy and I think it does time itself based on what’s in there so it’s just an estimation.

BCsven,

Yeah, I have the same machine. it will be saying 1 minute left on the spin cycle for 10 minutes.

Hangglide, in The machine is always broken

By broken, they mean we were too lazy to clean it today.

NuXCOM_90Percent,

It is less about being “lazy” than it is about being understaffed and the ice cream machine having a very labor and time intensive cleaning process.

I know this is The Internet, but could we maybe not shit on overworked and underpaid labor? Since, that is the whole point. Corporate McDonald’s and the companies with contracts to maintenance those machines actively want all of your ire to go to the 19 year old night shift manager rather than actually question the fundamental problems with this setup. And a lot of the issues plaguing this are the same that plague you in your comfortable home.

ifixit.com/…/whats-inside-that-mcdonalds-ice-crea… is a good article on these issues and why it is, like most things, a problem of lobbyists and corporate interests. That you chose to blame on the workers.

sentient_loom,
@sentient_loom@sh.itjust.works avatar

It’s also full of bacteria. People shit themselves when the machine works.

The ice cream is made from worms and diarrhea.

Your brain is leaking out your eye sockets.

I only regret, that I have but one upvote to give this post.

MrVilliam,

It only gets more frustrating when you learn how franchising works too. The pseudo “owner” of a location doesn’t have much say in anything in particular and doesn’t have much of a budget to do the right things with because they spend everything to have the names, logos, ingredients, recipes, and specific equipment, and there are very tight specs to fall within that can get inspected at any time. So it’s clear that the “owner” should hire enough staff and pay them enough to attract good workers who will make it possible for you to buy a mcflurry, but that “owner” probably pulls 60-90 hour weeks for only about double the rate of what their lowest paid employee makes. They tend to get suckered in because it looks so good on paper but it’s so much worse than it seems. They thought they were signing up to be capitalists and instead they just become a slightly different tier of exploited laborer with much higher stress because of personal investment in the failure or success of the location. They’re effectively indentured servants. The standard workers at least have the freedom to say fuck you and go get a different job without actually losing anything.

If a franchise unionizes, I think that it should be collective for all of the laborers to have security against the corporations ratfucking interests. Corporations want us to demonize their proxy lightning rod location “owners” but we should see through that bullshit.

For anyone showing up after it was edited, this post was originally depicting Zelinsky as Scarface in front of a giant pile of cocaine lamenting how he needs more money.

Maybe once NOT_RICHARD ran out of USA oil memes he should’ve moved onto making memes about how quickly Russia will invade neighbouring countries the moment they hear about warm water ports instead of shilling Russian propaganda.

XeroxCool, in You liar!

I much prefer an estimating timer that reliably dries all the clothes rather than a reliable timer that estimates the clothes are dry.

HonoraryMancunian,

Our washer does this too though

XeroxCool,

It might weigh it before washing, then keep doing the spin cycle until the weight gets close enough to the starting weight

HonoraryMancunian,

Good shout. Most of the cycles do their best to get rid of excess moisture

altima_neo, in You liar!
@altima_neo@lemmy.zip avatar

That’s a fancy dryer.

Mines purely mechanical. Old school timer runs the dryer

chris,
@chris@l.roofo.cc avatar

This one might save power because it will only dry as long as it needs to.

WarmSoda,

Opening the door and checking will also make sure it only dries as long as it needs to.

eskimofry,

Not really. You lose all the hot air every time you open it up and then it has to use juice to heat up again.

WarmSoda,

Right. Right. So let’s make it run even longer than it needs to. That’s a great solution.

eskimofry,

It’s certainly more simpler than your dumbass idea that will get the company sued when some shmuck decides to fondle the vent or some bs.

WarmSoda, (edited )

I’m sorry popping open a door for one second is too much for you. You might not be clever enough for a clothes dryer.

And that’s ok. Not everyone has to be good at the very basics. Luckily there’s plenty of companies willing to sell you over priced over engineered crap.

expatriado,

you guys are going in circles with this heated debate

WarmSoda, (edited )

Cycles*

(I don’t have any puns better than yours, unfortunately)

expatriado,

if there was a way to know when to stop…

WarmSoda,

Yup. Old school timer.

eskimofry,

Man i envy your bubble. You haven’t met some truly dumb people.

WarmSoda, (edited )

It’s a clothes dryer.

Edit. I can only assume people downvoting have a difficult time understanding washer and dryers.

So yeah, I guess you’re right.

hemko,

Mate, most people are not interested of following laundry machine spin for 4 hours. Normal people put clothes in, go do something and get the clothes out when they hear a peep. Or 10 hours later whatever.

WarmSoda,

Four hours? Wat

hemko,

My washing machine with drying program takes about 4 hours in Eco mode. But the exact time is irrelevant

WarmSoda, (edited )

That’s crazy.

My washer and dryer combined is at most 3 hours IF it’s heavy. But that’s rare. It takes maybe an hour to two hours for a regular full load.

What is your one machine doing for four hours?

hemko,

Idk it spins, wets, soaps and dries in some kind of order. Laundry machine stuff
