Have you tried calling them? It fucking sucks to do, but I find it's an effective way to get off mailing lists. It shouldn't be this way, but until some governing body gets the authority and motivation to fix these shit companies, it's about all we got.

Maybe but everywhere, but it is certainly more common. Perhaps not best for a fire, but I recall the example of a domestic abuse situation where they were effectively trapped with no way to talk without raising suspicion.

Very much this, there was some hubbub a while back where policies got passed the prevented people in education from effectively hiding things from parents such as if a child was trans and hadn't told their parents. It put them in the situation of being an asshole or risking their jobs and careers. They too might be a victim in an oppressive system.

You may also be able to find a handbook posted somewhere that outlines their policies and procedures. If you can find that, you may find your answers without even asking.

A store you can quickly get in and out of with a variety of everyday items at a reasonable price that seems to pay its employees well. What's not too love?

Also, several in my area have implemented self checkouts that don't bitch you out for every single item. I can scan everything from my cart and bag it up later at a counter or my car if the weather's nice.

Birds have a pecker!

We're all time travelers in the one-way lane.

In this case I believe the "sir" part of actually just a polite interjection to get attention. While I an unsure of another polite one, options include:

• Hey
• Oi
• Bitch
• Asshole
• Mate
• 1/2 cup sugar
• Stir well
• Bake 350 for 25 minutes
• Cut and serve

Oh yeah! Fuck that noise too!

I was so happy when I discovered Prism because I did not want to install multiple layers of garbage to get Curse modpacks working like I had to on Windows. I still have friends with Overwolf running in the background!

I did that last year. This year I set up so many filters and block lists to avoid the toxic bullshit. It's really helped to restore my sanity.

• There is no good news
• The news exists to capture your attention
• You cannot fix all of the problems
• Secure your own mask before helping others

I appreciate the idea, but it is fine to just describe the joke instead of using AI to create a mediocre attempt.

I've got a pair of friends who I would regularly get lunch with at a certain buffet, but one would always bring whoever they were hitting on at that time. I started implementing a policy that they had to last past 3 lunches before I would learn their name because the rotation was too damn quick.

From the Lemmy 0.19.15 Patch Notes:

So you may just get your wish.

Scheduled updates always make be feel good. I get excited to see what is new or improved.

And until then, here's the link with it removed.

Sure, if it was a sitcom episode it would be over before the theme song finished playing. (12 seconds)

Well, an American football field is 100 yards not counting the end zones. There's 3 feet in a yard, so 300ft. 2/300 is roughly 0.0066.

Sure are a lot of things to account for with these self driving car things. It would probably be way easier if they were separate from pedestrians and maybe limited on where they can go.

Trains. I want them to just be trains.

I've had a fine experience with Fossify File Manager. I can't recall running into anything I wanted to do that it couldn't handle.

Cleaning, organizing, and documentation are high priorities.

Every job I've worked at has had mountains of "The last guy didn't..." that you walk into and it's always a huge pain in the ass. They didn't throw out useless things, they didn't bother consolidating storage rooms, and they never wrote down any of their processes, procedures, or rationals. I've spent many hours at each job just detangling messes because the other person was to busy or thought it unimportant and didn't bother to spend the time.

Make it a priority, allocate the time, and think long-term.
