I remember this one from that one episode of House.

So there are situations where it wouldn’t be appropriate to be openly vulnerable. Like in the middle of class, standing up and telling everyone your past trauma. That’s not an appropriate time to share.

But if the people you were with just didn’t want you to be open and vulnerable, that’s on the people, not you. It’s better to be surrounded by people who accept you and are willing to hear your truth.

I think this is why it’s a baconator, specifically.

Millennials are older than Gen Z. Why would a Gen Z’er be sitting in an armchair reading a newspaper? Gen Z would be born between 1997 and 2012, these people basically grew up online.

The NLRB General Counsel is seeking an order for offers of re-employment for affected employees and reimbursement for loss of pay, along with the stores reopening for business.

The goal is that they reopen with the same unionized employees, plus back pay. That would be a huge win for the union.

So when you do a French braid in hair, you start off with three small sections. Every time you fold over the outer sections, you incorporate more hair into those sections. This differs from a normal braid, which doesn’t increase the size of the three parts of the braid as you go along.

French braiding flesh would require a lot more flesh. Also it wouldn’t look nearly as tidy because the other ends of the flesh (those not in the braid) are not attached to anything (i.e. a scalp) so it would be a loose tangled mess.

There’s easier ways to make something grotesque and cursed.

I work in the US but at my company, team lunch is always paid for. Not only the food, but the time we eat is paid time (for hourly employees.) Mandatory “fun” should be on the clock and paid for by the company.

Definitely not the case for every company here, of course. But personally, I’d refuse to attend if the company weren’t paying for it.

Gatekeeping the evolution of language: the type of internet comment everyone loves the most.

(This comment is sarcasm. Your gatekeeping adds nothing of value to the conversation.)

Yeah, don’t tell us what to do!

When my vitamin D levels were tested low, the doc told me to take 2,000 IBU daily.

~7000/day seems quite high to me. But I’m not a doctor.

I would consider if the cost of purchasing all this vitamin D - a lot of of which your body may be excreting rather than absorbing - is a worthwhile financial investment in your health. I don’t know anything about you, maybe it is.

This reads like a Rimworld post.

I don’t think there’s a Rimworld community on Lemmy and I’m not going on Reddit anymore so I’ll just throw this comment into the void and hope some fans are out there. 👋

Also in Rimworld terms the answer is corn (if monoculture) and send everyone to harvest at the first sign of blight.

But in both Rimworld and real life, a monoculture strategy isn’t sustainable. Diversifying via multiple food sources reduces your risk of disaster leading to starvation.

This is hilarious.

My husband runs our Lemmy instance, and he’s subscribed to the Linux community, which is one of the most active on Lemmy (I probably don’t need to tell you that.) I’m basically just here for memes and I ultimately blocked the Linux community because it was all over my feed. I’m a normie and I just don’t care about Linux whatsoever, not enough for every other post to be about it anyway.

Hey, I work in QA (not in the video game field though.) However, I can tell you there is a difference between “QA missed” and “deadlines required prioritizing other fixes.”

One implies that the employees are bad at their job. Which is almost certainly not the case. I haven’t played Starfield (or even clicked through to your link lol) but presumably this is something blatantly obvious. And I’m sure the QA team was frustrated letting a glaring known issue through.

QA finds issues but it’s up to development teams to fix them, and strict deadlines will always hamper delivering a flawless product. But deadlines are driven by management and until the industry changes (i.e. don’t preorder games) we’re going to keep seeing these problems.

But as a QA professional, please don’t blame us ✌️
