psud,

Gen x got MASH reruns and internalised the theme song “suicide is painless”

psud,

Skilled programmers can see that Linus is an expert. It works in tech. It probably works in any professional environment - anywhere where skilled people are picking someone highly skilled.

For the average person, we have clearly seen average people suck at picking expert leaders, though it works fine in small groups

psud,

That was my dad in the Navy in the '60s. The rules were you could have facial hair, but if you wanted to go from clean shaven to facial hair you needed permission and you had two weeks to grow it - if it wasn’t good enough you had to shave.

He couldn’t grow a beard in a fortnight. I can’t grow a beard in a fortnight.

So he applied right before going on leave so he would have 4 weeks of leave + 2 weeks to grow the beard, which was sufficient

psud,

I grew a bushy beard over 2020, then when masks were recommended I shaved to a moustache

My wife wanted the beard back “sorry hon, that stops the mask working”

Now 2024, still mo. I like it

psud,

I give a few apps background location access, and for a couple of weeks after enabling each android would occasionally ask if the app still needs background data

psud,

Weather wants your location so you can get weather for where you are

psud,

Back when I was 6, in 1983, my uncle who worked in the oil industry told me about global warming.

I could totally have been a real radical environmentalist, but I was 6.

A second time around that talk would have an impact, and with some foresight for the next 40 years. I think no one would be surprised if I devoted everything to fixing global warming - they might be surprised at my success in the stock market.

psud,

These “would you rather” memes are mind poison when both sides are impossible fantasies

psud,

They just need to not be critical to the creation of lemmy

psud,

I’ll grant they’re fun

psud,

There’s no way you could follow the same path. There are too many narrow chances. I would start again just for the chance to not fuck up my health for 40 years. I feel like the cost would be many of my friends

Jeffrey Combses

You use the other form for titles

“There were three directors general”

psud,

This is what that looks like to me, in case it’s not deliberate https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/52d94fb7-1b49-4b79-8ada-98018cdbbbf0.png

psud,

:'( is crying

psud,

Most modern 4 cyl cars are better than old ones. The engines are more powerful and the car lighter

psud,

Because weather is simple, right?

psud,

It may well have been that his crime was acting like he knew how to do it while being 8. I had old people like that around when I was a kid. And I was a very respectful kid

psud,

For the cyclist to stand on when performing various BMX stunts

psud,

Fuck pants have a fly or undoable back/crotch depending on whether they’re for the fucker or the fuckee

psud,

…Normal

psud,

Try 30 hour week. It’s superior to 4 “days” of random length. I had a couple of Philippines based contractors on my team who had 4 day weeks, but they still needed to work 40 hours

psud,

So they can up their investment income from $1B to $1.0001B

psud,

There’s a song 6.66 (1/100th of the number of the beast)

But nothing for 6.6.6

psud,

I live in Australia near our mountain pastures. The meat supply is a mix of local grass fed and finished beef and lamb, and grain finished beef from up north

The grass finished meat has a healthier fat balance and tastes better

I always ask butchers where my meat was raised and how it was finished as that affects the ethics and flavour. I agree with you that meat raised on grain is wasteful.

Where’s the waste in what I buy? They drink from mountain streams, they eat grass. Most of their meat goes to human food, most of the rest goes to pet food, the skin becomes leather

When I cook more meat than I can eat, the extra goes in the fridge and I eat it for the next meal

On the relevant subreddit (which hasn’t moved to Lemmy) I have heard it’s easy to get grass finished beef in the US too
