tetris11 , 3 days ago to Asklemmy in What industry do you work in and what are the LPT the general public should know about it?

King of England. Please don't visit the Palace, there's literally nothing to see.

If you're going to see the show and spot me in a side booth, please don't heckle. Yes she knows. Yes of course she knows. Yes he's a prick. Yes your money is being wasted on us, but we're all you've got in terms of benevolent rich people so live with it.

Can you just check on the camera. Yeah, the blue car. No not that one, the other one.

tetris11 , 3 days ago to Asklemmy in What industry do you work in and what are the LPT the general public should know about it?

Yes, of course. Though your camera light would alert you of the usage, unless of course, your IT guy ordered a camera that can deactivate the light via software (or simply opened the camera and yanked the light)

...what's a CPA?

tetris11 , 4 days ago to Asklemmy in You have 15$. How would you spend it so that you'll be the happiest you can be for 15$ ?

That's very sweet. I guess I'd do something similar: buy a crab bucket and a rope, and head down to the waterfront where I'd swim under piers and see how many people's dangling legs I can hook and pull under with the rope

I was going to write "a decent comic reader", but I've recently discovered Kotatsu and it has literally changed my life.

Every time I pivot away from Trebuchet, I always pivot back. It does what I want; app folders, hidden apps, multiple screens, widgets.

All the alternatives sacrifice something

Kitten huffing

tetris11 , 10 days ago to Asklemmy in What Era was the best and why was it the 90s?

oh, I figured it was just the ideal binding material for broken parts (e.g. limbs, rifle butts) whilst providing comfort and stretch/tightness control.

I really thought that the internet would bring the 1st world and 3rd world together: e.g. I'd be able to videocall a farmer in India.

Instead our attention has been focused "upwards" towards a small minority of people, very few who interact with their followers meaningfully.

Apps that have been powering the gig economy (ridesharing, workrabbit, renting apps) have largely helped employers and landlords coordinate their efforts, and not helped the working class negotiate better conditions.

I'm not sure if optimism is warranted tbh

Me, in my ivory tower: Man, bandages as an art style really seems to be trendy amongst the wastelanders. I wonder why?

I grew up in a small rural village separated by a small stream. To get across, we'd employ all manner of clever tricks - jumping across with a tire swing, old mattresses, dead animals, you name it.

I guess what I'm saying is: how about using a large catapult as a flexible alternative, with the option to launch dead animals at any naysayers?

Campaign donators need some sign that you will bend to their demands, and so having a decent felony record is a good indication that you will play ball.
