I believe we use the same platform.
I can never remember either. I estimate the lag, go one way, and if it’s worse I go the other way and try to remember while I adjust.

Right, but that’s true for plants as well though

There is no ethical consumption
- Comment on Anon steams up the sauna 2 weeks ago:
A “do you mind if I pour some water on the stones?” Is a good opener. Then you wait for them to engage. If they don’t, so be it.

Isn’t that what they do? They skim all the milk and then put the fat in to various concentration?

At least now you’re sure it won’t reproduce

Legally, yes.
But ask random people and I guarantee most welcome would think it’s the same

So does finding a job.
People spend months looking for a job, full time with no pay, and you’re here complaining that you need to spend a few days interviewing people, for which you’re being paid since it’s your job.

But you need money for therapy
- Comment on Money doesn't solve everything, but it helps. 1 month ago:
It always was.
Money is how we convert human work into convenience. It’s the universal bartering good.
If I don’t want to do something, I exchange time spent doing something else for it. This also lets me specialize in doing a single thing, which is how we progressed as a society.

But in that case it’s more like a technical exam.
- Comment on Take cover 1 month ago:
Do interviews then. Cover letters discourages the real people whereas the"drive bys", as you called them, will just crap something out with AI in 2 seconds.
Asking for interviews also shows you’re as invested in finding a good match for an employee as the employee is in finding a good boss.

Notice how they didn’t say millionnaire though, they said multi-milionnaire.
There’s a difference between being worth a million and ten

I occasionally shave my armpits. Having hair pop out of your shirt sleeves is not a great look, and I find they’re less sweaty when shaved.

It’s unstable and will dissipate on its own when the relative displacement between them will be too great.

You didn’t go retro enough.

- Comment on Philosophy has peaked. Checkmate atheists 2 months ago:
If someone writes in their will that their dick shall be made into a dildo so that their partner can keep having sex with them, they can do that. I find it gross, but not immoral.

So you don’t consider astronomy to be a serious field?

Are you familiar with the justice system at all? Many lawsuits are attempts at bullying.
