Honestly, it’s still a real job even if they feel it isn’t anymore.
They scripted some collection of mindnumbing stupid tasks, while everything works it’s all fine and they have lots of free time to “think about optimising other things in the organisation” (or in reality do whatever they like for private projects).
But when SHTF (and it always will at some point), this person is the one that can fix it all in a few hours max (and possible optimise thing further), while some external firm would struggle for weeks. That can worth keeping them on the payroll, even if the bosses are aware of the situation.
This is exactly the kind of job that should be rewarded. The person doing the exact same paper pushing for 40h a week without questioning how dumb the task is and how it could be optimised is the real resources drain.

everything you
useownConsumer already paid for the damn vehicle. At least market that ad-bullshit as the cheaper freemium rental version and offer a no ads purchase version… They are not at all thinking about the consumer, only about filling their ever growing pockets.

- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 1 month ago:
Depends how that happens. I’ld see them sell off lots of high tech gear to highest bidding crazy people for a quick cash grab. Same amount of weapons, less controlled.

Trump is the first very televised idiot for this list… Tho the people are even less sane for REelecting him
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 1 month ago:
It’s still a shitty situation. Really what’s a shitty situation with an extra 20 kg of coffee in your basement, but still a shitty situation? The prepper fortress is a very unrealistic thing to try to strive for anyhow for anyone living in a city, majority of people. It’s the widespread doomsday mentality and the downward spiral of the conspiracy nutheads that got the USA where it is today anyhow… Good luck hanging on in your basement for 10 years. That’s easily how long it can take if it goes full fascist. Even then, hard to compare, the implosion of a nuclear armed superpower has only happened once before in history (Soviet Union), and that shit ain’t over yet either, Ukraine is a direct continuation of the process. So they’re like 35-ish years in, where USA seems to be heading now. Abandoning NATO is the equivalent of the implosion of the Warsaw Pact.

- Comment on Coincidence of 2 album suggestions next to eachother 2 months ago:
Usually involves scarcely clothed women on cover. The music itself is usually some quite loungy slow towards jazz music thing or very light electro. King of erotic lounge for me is Fausto Papetti, bonus points for lots of Saxophone… I got like 8 LPs from him out of which 6 have topless women on the cover

Only in a two-party system. Locked in a two party system is the death of it. At least introduce multiple rounds, two democratically elect the 2 contestants in the final round…

This looks very promising. Thanks for linking to it here. I hope it gets launched soon.
- Comment on Is land inclination included in area calculation? 8 months ago:
even the little bits of grass around the peaks in foreground could actually be used. I’m amazed how risky cows behaviour is regarding to the abyss, and goats somehow are just completely not afraid of heights at all and hop around on 400 meter cliffs like a walk in the park. So you can grow food (meat+milk) on mountain sides during summer

- Comment on And they don't fold well either 8 months ago:
Exactly what I’m looking for! I’ld like back sleeping but with a slightly tilted, side supported head. Lean head all the way = neck pain. Head straight = can’t fall asleep. I’ve tried stuff with backsleeping+ side support for leaning the head, but the extra pillow on the head side isn’t strong enough (doesn’t last) and it all gets too hot around the head.
- Comment on Youtube is broken, again 8 months ago:
you make me think i might, who knows. It looks and feels as a half-blocked element by something tho. The lay-over pop-up thing is getting thru, it’s content is not. Now I found out that I can “click” some of the whiteness (turns into a hand), but don’t know what I’ld be agreeing to.
First there’s this: which the only option is “review options”. There is no “close it for now” or whatever. It’s not a choice but a command.
Some Google services are not linked Choose whether to share your data across YouTube and other Google services
Review choices
If clicking the review choices, I get a blank window with some “ghost elements” and when I inspect some of these it for example says “yes, link”. But I’ld rather not. Tried turning off all my extensions and refreshing but that still didn’t render it readable to me. Image

Yeah i used to do that. Then i got hooked by how easy it became to just stream all the time. Local made me feel like i got stuck on the same music after a while a bit too much, and getting new music required effort. I became lazy.
- Comment on Youtube is broken, again 9 months ago:
I honestly don’t care if it’s a user issue or a platform issue. It’s annoying af.
- Comment on Youtube is broken, again 9 months ago:
Yes, EU, they probably have to. Thing is i can’t see a thing on that pop-up, something somewhere is blocking it. Turned off ublock, still not showing, turned off i don’t care about cookies, still shows nothing. So it’s a white, empty pop-up on which i can’t click a thing and can’t get beyond it.

i think it’s whoever made the playlist i dunno. It’s mildly infuriating to me anyhow that someone would post a “full album …” and compose it with videos which all together do not form the album they claim it is in the title of the playlist.

- Comment on Steam Summer Sale - Top Deals 9 months ago:
Played it pirated years ago. Not really looking to play again tbh because it’s so sad, but I’ll buy it discounted for supporting, I back then liked the very original angle of playing with trapped victims instead of army.
- Comment on Anon wants to ride a zeppelin 10 months ago:
Better in many regards but for sure not all. Airships could run a lot more quietly for example, that has some value. Until they explode ofcourse, that’s rather loud.

Some solar panels on top of the balloon, nowadays you can even create your H on the go from the H2O in the air!
- Comment on It is very therapeutic to garden, though. 11 months ago:
There’s still different approaches to it though. The default industrial gigantic monocultures with massive aquifer drilling is for sure missing a few delayed, less visible costs in the equation. “Improve industrial farming, adjust it back to a more normal scale and add some diversity between the fields and rotate crops!” just isn’t a very catchy slogan I guess.

Dunno what you might expect with obscure or niche, but if you’re fishing for random non algorithm suggestions on something you could watch, I’ll give you this: Fantastic Planet (1973)
