  Yes, but those also went extinct.

  God made wizards and God made muggles, but Samuel Colt made them equal.

  This had me in stitches

  I’m kind of with your family on this one, but if you are going through with it I would just verify with the doctor performing the procedure whether it can be reversed in case you change your mind later on.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m pretty sure most of the top posts in AITA are AI generated. They all have a similar pattern, are lengthy and always have a similar pity angle.

  I sometimes read them to see if the pattern has changed, but not last time I checked.

  Ok, sure. I do want to point out that I simply answered the question. I don’t deny my state of luxury yet also don’t feel that this bout of whataboutism is entirely warranted.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you reconcile staying sane while keeping yourself up-to-date with the news?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  By looking at it from a larger perspective. You can always get worked up about things but if you zoom out, you see that most of it is just a temporary trend. Some things trend well, some trend poorly, but these tend to be blips in the span of a lifetime.

  Especially when comparing with the past you will see that things really aren’t all that bad in general.

  In Düsseldorf, after the full body scan and scan of my bags, I still had to take of my shoes, put them in a box, they scanned said box with shoes and after as I was putting on my shoes, using the metal seat to lift my feet, they complained about that because people sit there. Which is a fair point, but holy shit was I pissed off at the time. I hate that airport.

  They can call it New Flevoland

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everything is a problem⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s why I use mail relays.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everything is a problem⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I want everything as dumb as possible. I will register whatever I buy with the manufacturer for warranty purposes, but other than that: dumb toaster, dumb fridge, dumb washing machine, dumb robot vacuum cleaner, dumb doorbell, dumb locks, etc…

  If it doesn’t need internet to function, it’s not getting any.

  A friend of mine is a professor in anthropology and he told me that he stayed in academia because he was afraid of change and academia was something he knew well.

  Supplier supplies replacement and spare parts to customer. Shocking

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨suckcess⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe it’s a cultural thing? I’ve only ever worked for Belgian and Dutch companies (and one Austrian one, but that was a project of only a couple of months).

  All those companies were meritocratic and had an active agenda of nurturing talent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨suckcess⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is how I work too tbh. Yes, you get more work, but then if it really becomes too much, they will just assign others to help you out (at least, that’s how it always went with me) and then you start delegating. You drill them, they become good, you delegate more. That frees up time for you to actually improve and automate stuff, freeing up more time for the delegates, allowing you to focus even more on making their and your life easier.

  I’m in IT, so this might not work in every job type, but I’ve done this in every position I was in and it always worked so far.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨we are creators⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I always thought those scifi stories where companies basically rule everything were overblown, but you just see it changing to that in real time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Corporations are saving the planet!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s an EU regulation, not a corporate measure. And it has drastically decreased the amount of littered bottle caps, so a good thing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Great plan⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  There are not many employers that allow that in my experience.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Proof that fashion is cyclical, even in nature.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Dolphins will get high on poisonous fish and pass those around like a blunt.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨RIP Thomas⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  We have blackbirds in our garden and I swear that I have seen the females shout at their lazy ass husband several times. They will tweet angrily, fly after them, hop after them, pull feathers from their tails and whatnot. True drama every time.

  4 as my shoulder and neck hurt a bit.
