I always keep Lunch in my backpack at my desk or eat in a cafeteria. The best way to be chill about a problem is to avoid having the problem.

Do you have a recipe? While I’m a fan of great slaw, I’ve never been able to make it myself. The recipes I’ve tried are bland mayo mush not worth eating

It’s not a Rueben but it does make an excellent sandwich!

Oh shit, how have I not tried that? And I have plenty of slow-smoked pulled pork left over from this weekend!

I only had pickles on pulled pork sandwiches, pulled pork breakfast burritos, pulled pork mac&cheese ….

Maybe kids are too short sighted to see the risk, but who says they don’t do that? Among the stupid things I did as a kid was try to turn any tube into a gun/cannon/firework mortar, and hold it in my hands to aim and launch. We even had the benefit of my grandfather losing a couple fingers as a cautionary tale, that we completely ignored. If something happened, could you really call that an accident?

Or the time we were playing with fireworks …. In a barn full of dry hay? I don’t know how my grandfather let us live after that one

…… but there’s a threshold of stupidity where you really can’t call it an accident. I’m happy to have survived in one piece all too many bouts of stupidity but the adult me wouldn’t call it an accident if something happened

She’s off to a great start! Most non-programmers starting off with python that I’ve seen are confused by the soaring and indexing rules, so can never get copy-pasted code to work

My older son always rebelled against programming, mostly because i thought he’d be great at it, but finally had to pick up some for a college class, I don’t know, stats or something. He became the programmer genius getting half the class to succeed, just because I drilled him on spacing and indenting

As a grandmom, my Mom has decided on boxes for really lame gifts that might make you wonder if she has dementia, for gift cards.

If you don’t give her sufficient ideas for her to buy you something you enjoy, you’re a Scrooge and deserve this box of instant jello …… containing a gift card so you can get it yourself

Too old to understand why you’re asking about American Sign Language

Jet fuel never had lead

Don’t wait. Come talk to us. Yeah things are hectic with demands flooding in from all directions but we want to make your job easier and better

For newbies to home automation, it’s finally getting to the point where we should recommend Matter/Thread.

I mean, I won’t use it yet because I have mature Zigbee and Z-wave meshes, and use Home Assistant, but they want to run HomeKit and don’t seem to want to do their homework

Stand in awe at a replica of Michaelangelo’s David.

Admittedly staring at a statue of a naked guy, but come on

I don’t know how yu do this when so much school funding is local. I’ve always lived in areas that valued education agiin and we’re willing to pay for it. However no matter how much my taxes increase, it won’t help those kids in places with less money or not willing to invest in it.

It’s a much bigger ask to turn school funding into a national thing.

I used to find it surprisingly good, but entirely stopped after the previous redesign where they added ads, removed choices to only look at things without extra cost, and in general made the dashboard less usable.

Then they wanted extra money to not insert commercials? Fuck that. Let me help you save money by not using it

Maybe even let you filter by genre in a meaningful way, instead of each returning the same list

Interesting timing …. I just blocked a user for the first time. I never did that in all my years atReddit and it’s predecessors.

So the people. Maybe it was just the huge numbers that I never got targeted by someone who wanted to keep arguing no matter what, but it didn’t happen at Reddit.

And I do miss number of communities Lemmy just doesn’t have the user base to support

Depends on what they’re doing.

• Simply drowning out valid signals is usually illegal so it would be interesting how they justify violating FCC
• However you can also just block communication with things like a flood of connection requests. They’re not interfering with the signal, just with your router’s ability to send data back and forth

…. and display/video

D’Oh!

I always tried to prefer hard wiring where possible, so this shouldn’t block my cameras. However it just hit me reading this that all my displays are wireless. I’ll get the video but won’t be able to see it

wtf, I bet it would work equally well for thousands of dollars less if their jammer didn’t come with a robot dog.

That mid-level manager also has the conflicting responsibility to ensure the necessary process is happening to reliably release, and that a release can’t happen unless that process happened. They goofed, as did their manager who prized cheapness and quickness over quality

Let them all from the CEO down suffer the consequences that a free market supposedly deals
