Everything will be fine unless someone shows him an active torrent of The Apprentice and explains he doesn’t get paid residuals if people watch it that way.

“How impressed everybody is” is the basis of money, law, self-worth and our models of reality.

Can you expand on that some? On the surface, it doesn’t match my experience at all.

First post the post, I guess. I’m told all the other options are too difficult for people to understand, apparently.

You got sentenced because a tree branch fell and damaged a fence? Sentenced to what? By whom?

You just gave me opinions I didn’t know I held.

I looked into this a while back and gave up.

I didn’t find any (good) models I wouldn’t have to pay for, but some of the paid STL sites had sets available for really reasonable prices, so that wasn’t really a blocker.

But FDM is basically incapable of printing any interesting models. Even if you’re printing good layers, most interesting models aren’t geometrically compatible with how an FDM model prints. You can print with supports, but removing supports from such thin, fragile bits of a model is nigh impossible without doing damage.

I went as far as shopping around for a resin printer, but I didn’t like all the ventilation cautions I read. Adding a printer is one thing, but having a well ventilated area that overlaps with where I’d want a printer was an unsolveable problem in my home.

If you just want to give it a try, grab a model off Thingiverse and see how your printer does. If you can get a piece you’d be happy to proceed with painting, that might be worth a few more iterations to see if it’s workable for your setup.

It sounds like you’re in an ideal position since you’re leaving anyway.

Option 1: fuck em. Tell them nothing. Remain professional and curt until your last day and never look back. Don’t bother with the exit interview.

Option 2: say nothing to your manager. During the exit interview (assuming it’s not just your manager in attendance), tell them your manager constantly pressures you to engage in social activity outside your work scope. You didn’t want to do that because there’s already so much pettiness and politics and you don’t see how more social exposure to your coworkers would improve that.

Option 3: sit down with your manager right now and explain that you don’t want to make friends with your coworkers. You’re perfectly happy getting along with them and doing good work, but you keep your social life separated from your work life. You find constant non-work chatter as a distraction and it keeps you from concentrating on and delivering good work.

Option 4: quit now. Unless you really need a reference from this company in the future, every shift you remain there is just doing them a favour. Write a letter to the CEO outlining why you’re leaving and why you don’t see any possibility of the company culture improving under its current management.

Quite frankly, the fact that she used the word “family” suggests she’s too out to lunch and can’t be reasoned with. She didn’t become a manager through any sort of training and doesn’t possess the mindset to empathize where people are coming from if they aren’t exactly like her.

You need to rotate your pc case if the VGA port isn’t vertical. The ground pins always need to be on top so all those grounding electrons weigh down the other conductors to make the data flow more quickly.

You’re an adult and can make your own decisions.

Hopefully, anyway. I’m an adult and can barely make any decisions, but I hope I’m an outlier.

I don’t think I’ve added to the list in months.

I haven’t noticed that at all. Whenever I see an argument made in good faith, there’s frequently contrary responses that delve into the actual issues and discuss some of the nuance around them. I found Reddit far worse (especially the default subs).

On Reddit, any comment reply I got was usually someone telling me to kill myself or correcting some boring pedantic thing. On Lemmy they usually make me think about the issue some more, and they’re never frothing-at-the-mouth aggressive.

But it might also depend a lot on what communities you spend time in, what instance you’re on, and what instances you have blocked.

If I’m understanding what you want to hear, you should totally just buy Aldi’s taquitos. Maybe a drink if you’re feeling fancy.

This is expected Canadian source code:

// cache the colour in case we need it later for the neighbour
color = fetchColor();
neighbor.color = color;

When language keywords are all written in American English it’s foolish to try to author your code in a different language. But comments are fair game.

I was coming around a bend on a really wide, “gentle“ road behind a business park. It had no cars parked on the street and was wide open with little traffic.

Come around the corner and see, right in the middle of the road, a driving school car flipped on its roof. No other cars around, no hazards. Just a perfectly placed car on its head, even pointed down the road as though some movie prop guys had installed it.

Standing beside it was a very bored and sad looking cop directing traffic. I think he was tired of every passing car taking a picture as they drove by.

My apartment complex has a Facebook group that serves the same purpose. It’s kind of a mess.

Last week someone posted their security camera footage showing some homeless guy (in his-vis) casing their patio. The neighborhood watch quickly confirmed this scumbag had been poking around the property for days. A police report was created. People went out looking for him.

A couple hours later, the maintenance guy replies to the thread saying the guy is a contractor fixing damaged decks. There are signs up everywhere about it. People got email notifications. And yet they still found a way to create a panic and also waste the cops’ time.

Any time there’s a “popular” thread in that group, it’s always something like that.

My advice is to never join any online community with your neighbors. It’ll just scare you by how fucking stupid the average person is.

What if I watched the entire porn spoof?

Never have I ever seen Titanic.

Not exactly what you’re asking, but it’s also worth checking your local library. Some of them grant their cardholders access to external sources that might overlap with what you’re after.
