Then it’d be time to put those 2A to use.

That’s it, the last box in this lineup:

Ballot -> Soap -> Jury -> Ammo

So if it comes to it y’all are going to have to be willing to use it, unless you’d rather live under a King.

As an engineer I would like to second this motion to get “Mach Yeet” adopted as an IEC standard technical term.

I know Discovery is a bit hokey, but do you not even find the charm and generally upbeat tone of SNW more alike to TOS?

I gritted my teeth through discovery mostly because I was watching it with my housemate, but SNW really felt like I was a kid again watching TOS with my uncle who passed away 15 years ago.

All of that perfectly marbled meat 🍖

Dog Soldiers.

It is known as the British Predator. You can see the low budget on the screen, but my god it’s excellent. Do not watch the trailer, it’s shit and will give you a bad impression of the film.

With a username like that I can only assume a level of expertise I cannot reach as I am follicle-ly challenged. I shall take your advice on board 😊

When I started getting nose hairs. Now I pluck those suckers and they bring anything else out with them.

I should also point out that when I get my hair cut, the barber also does a wax removal.

Yes. So LET’S FUCKING SEE IT!

Well she is from Doncaster so that explains a lot of her delusional thinking.

I use multiple browsers for different things:

Vivaldi - for work or personal projects because the workspaces and tab stacking allows me to keep an “L1 cache” of all the sites relevant to parts of projects I’m working on. Then when I’m done with that work the useful ones get bookmarked for future use.

Firefox - personal browsing i.e. watching stuff, shopping, etc. because I wanted off chrome so I could continue to use adblockers.

Brave - research purposes.

Opera - for the occasional use of a VPN for getting around geoblocking.

We all are Ralph, we all are… (Slaps knees) Aaanyway, just got to get on with life (stands up and walks off stage left)

I think this is more a comment on the particular strain of misogyny that pervades Japanese society and not being surprised that a country which has women only metro carriages out of necessity to prevent sexual harassment is also having a problem with AI generated deep fakes. Though the latter is also a problem in many other countries which have access to these image models.

So… repeat the policies without the racism and sexism then?

Counter point: KiCAD

Yes I know it’s schematic capture and PCB layout, but I’m giving it as an example for two reasons:

1. The UX is genuinely really good and easy to use even for a novice following YouTube tutorials because it follows the norms of a schematic/PCB software package you’d expect to pay for (OrCAD, Altium, etc.)

2. It’s open source and used in industry so GIMP and Inkscape have ZERO excuses for their horrific UX which is the prime reason industry professionals don’t want to spend an age re-learning all of their workflows.

There I said it, I’ll get down off this soapbox now.

cough Inkscape cough …

Why are y’all looking at me like that?

This guy gets invited to parties?

Well even in that condition a Ford Something is better than a Ford Nothing.

Jesus Christ, look at the SIZE of those Pythons! Descartes could detonate watermelons between them!

UK, 25 days as standard (not including paid bank holidays) plus my employer has the option to buy/sell up to 5 days so I usually buy 5 extra. Also, if you have left over holiday days, you can carry over 5 to the next financial year.

Additionally, the standard legal of 9 months maternity leave.

Also, unlimited paid sick days providing you don’t take the piss; longer than 3 days you should ask for a note from the GP. Longer than 2 weeks you should arrange a meeting to discuss the situation and what (if any) adjustments can be made.

I will also point out that mental conditions must be treated the same as physical conditions so if you need to take a mental health day then you can.

Also my job is very flexible about working arrangements.

The standard is hybrid working, 2 out of 5 days in the office. But depending on what your job is you could be fully WFH or full-time in the office.

If you feel you can only work part-time and your manager agrees then you can.

And the contracted hours are 37.5 per week and flexible start so you must be available between the core hours of 10am to 12pm and from 2pm to 4pm, and as it’s the UK Fridays you can finish at 12. Providing you’ve logged enough hours for the week, if you want to finish early you can or take a longer lunch break to run an errand.

Oh and the cherry on top is the company tries to match annual pay rises with inflation and give a very good reason if they can’t fully match it. That’s not very common in the UK and one of the main reasons, aside from the fact that it’s a nice place to work, why I’ve stayed with them because I don’t feel pressured to move jobs to stop my pay getting eroded by inflation.
