Interesting logic or backstory?

Was just about to just about to write an op-ed on how the perfect cake disaster doesn’t exist. You’ve saved my online reputation. Thank you, Spiderman!
- Comment on Middle-Aged Man Trading Cards Go Viral in Rural Japan Town 1 week ago:
I’d be thrilled to be considered “middle aged” at 81

Fantastic cure for doom scrolling
- Comment on How do you pronounce "centaur" and why? 2 weeks ago:
Correctly, smugly and pretentiously

Microsoft is gonna try to recommission that plant next, aren’t they?
- Comment on I just think skibidibi sounds neat. 1 month ago:
It’s obviously referring to the guy in the background watching them talk
- Comment on Be safe out there 1 month ago:
That’s 12.8 billion bites for NYC alone (the population is 8 million there, right? I can’t be bothered to check)

- Comment on Is the Nintendo Switch 2 the end of innovative consoles? 2 months ago:
The Switch was an iterative improvement on the Wii U and while I wish they called it Nintendo Snap (how I heard the new sound effect) instead of drab numbering, I’d argue there are similar iterative innovations here–some likely to compete with the Steam Deck–without losing what’s working so far

- Comment on I hate when this happens 2 months ago:
This also happens within IT
- Comment on Should I ask my boss for tomorrow off? 2 months ago:
Sounds like you’re salaried. Generally those jobs care about getting your work done more than watching a clock or waiting for phones to ring
If you have a decent boss, explaining what happened and asking if you can just take off a different day this coming week would probably be fine, even if Tuesday isn’t feasible on such short notice. Personally, I’d be gunning for Friday (assuming you have the normal weekend days off)
If that conversation is considered a problem, then it’s time to see if the company’s competitors are hiring for your position

I watched this movie repeatedly as a kid on VHS. What was it about?
Follow-up question: same thing but for The Sound of Music
- Comment on Is it worth investing if I can only contribute $50 a month? 3 months ago:
That’s 600/yr and a long enough horizon that most diverse portfolios are likely to be net positive (I’m seeing about 5,000 gained with 8% growth in a basic savings calculator)
I’d spend those 10 years trying to free up cash flow but time’s a powerful weapon regardless
- Comment on Is there a theoretical limit to profit? 3 months ago:
Theoretically? I’d imagine it’s equal (or close) to the difference between global money supply and global money supply but I don’t think that’s what you’re asking
- Comment on You don't need to answer this 4 months ago:
I work in the insurance industry (though not directly for an insurance company) and while it’s a small sample size, employees there range from apathetic to rolling their eyes at the “poor CEO needing money for his funeral”
- Comment on Is there an obvious technical reason why the major email services (Outlook, gmail, etc) can't seem to limit recipients' from Replying-All? 4 months ago:
At my work we have something in place that prevents somebody from sending to more than 50 recipients but we control our own mail servers and know how many people are in the largest department
Basically, things like this exist but aren’t necessarily intuitive to set up and defaults would require contextual knowledge

Lemmy is my niche community
- Comment on Did the concept of 9-5 included a 30 minute lunch and two 15 minute breaks? 5 months ago:
Different jobs are different
Sorry for rambling
