People saw things going up 100% in price from one day to the next, compared to a 2% per year savings account. That’s very enticing for anyone.
And that's the entire problem...by the time things go up in price by 100%, the people that will make money have already made it. Getting in at that point is useless, and will likely lose money.
Last time, I used: “Anybody need anything while I’m out?” and that went over well. May not make it through this surgery on Friday, so I turn to Lemmy for top-notch suggestions for my potential last words!
Yeah, that's a nice idea until I realize I can forget the bags in the car just as easily as I can forget to bring them from home. Fortunately I don't carry a purse, or I'd forget that in the car too.
Not the specifics, but by the mysterious circumstances around his father's death as leader of the club which Jax is obviously destined to take over is foreshadowing.
More complicated, Kbin doesn't propagate downvotes from the Federation as a whole. It only counts the ones made on Kbin. Upvotes do propagate though, and reputation is determined by the ratio you get of upvotes to downvotes. So technically your Kbin reputation is inflated and not entirely accurate.
When I worked for Bell, they had just ended their WFH policy. I was required to be in the office every day. The rest of my team was still under the policy according to their contract, including my boss who was a 10 minute walk from the office, so they all worked from home. And most of my meetings involved teams in 3 different cities, not to mention the fact that it was Bell, so all meetings were over the phone with a screen sharing app. There were some other people that worked in the office, but they worked with different teams so I didn't interact with them beyond saying "hi" in the break room as I was getting coffee. But it was apparently very important that I be in the office.
Some days I really appreciate the fact that I left IT.
You can be offensive and funny at the same time. But it's an extremely fine line, and difficult to pull off. Watch Jimmy Carr if you want to see it done properly.
If you can, always set the title of whatever window you're working on to capital bold letters, preferably red, saying PRODUCTION SERVER - DON'T FUCK IT UP. This has saved my dumbass a few times when I looked up before hitting enter.
