The lunchables seems like a dystopian food stuff created by a team of psychopaths.

What if we made all of the food crappy, added extra preservatives and maybe a little bit of lead?

The Romans added led to their drinks it must have been delicious or something! ~Kraft food scientists probably

Careful, if you get bitten by a radioactive donut it turns you into a Simpson!

…and the NBA is supported by the taxpayer.

The entire business model of professional sports requires socializing the cost of infrastructure through subsidizing the transportation, location, and logistics and exempting every one of these monopoly wealth getting schemes from labor laws, antitrust, and public review.

The NBA, NFL, MLB, etc are a scam And they need to learn how to pay their own bills.

Do you know the difference between subsidized and self sufficient?

And how much of The profitability of that industry is owed to state sponsorship, tax breaks, and Monopoly exceptions?

Professional sports needs to learn how to pay its own bills before it can be used as an example of why women’s sports aren’t profitable.

Let’s drop the state sponsorship of professional men’s sports and sporting arenas down to the level that we give to the women’s teams and see how those salaries look in a couple of years…

Straight to the top of the thread for you.

I’ve worked in 2 different schools in the IT department and 4 others as a volunteer lecturer (I got a name tag that said Technology Evangelist) I found that putting an analog clock on the screen saver of computers in the classroom was more likely to result in the clock actually being on time.

Too many clocks in classrooms are very old or even battery powered but neglected.

I don’t think kids are dumb just they aren’t getting a world that is properly maintained by competent people that care about their work and are adequately resourced to do the whole job.

You are awesome.

Lemmy is better for you being here. Thanks for the reading material!

I’m just going to assume those 4 dollar words are real and you aren’t just misspelling normal words to fuck with us.

Non surjective free magma? What about the doblastic amortized basalt?

Nice.

When I was in high school and I replied to the appearance of an army recruiter in my social studies class I objected to his presence there with the phrase, “surely you don’t think it’s appropriate for you to be here recruiting impressionable youth to bomb brown people in the name of fascism?” My teacher made me stand in the hallway and gave me a “0” on the days quiz. There was no fucking quiz.

The series has a very satisfying conclusion.

It’s one of the coolest fucking things we watched this last year.

My hourly rate for tutoring is actually about 50% higher than my hourly rate for on call support which is about 100% higher than my hourly rate for work.

I’m trying to afford groceries here, It’s not 90 days payable It’s pay-per-play. I’m tired of trying to finance an inhaler while the boss’s favorite child can’t decide on a font color and thinks that 5 minute phone calls at 7:30 on a friday are free.

Am the grammar an spelling part of joke?

If it weren’t for the water fountain, this could look like an unexplored floor of the backrooms.

The luddites were a labor movement. They fought for the rights of skilled workers to make a living.

Somehow you have fallen for the myth that machines make art.

I’ve done that before but one time my boss insisted on sending his son to come pick me up and bring me into the office.

“I think perhaps my coherence on the phone has given you the impression that I would probably be able to make teeth right now, but I don’t really feel like holding a bard parker knife or putting my face that close to the flame right now… My breath might be flammable”

“You don’t need to carve wax, We need someone to reprogram the ovens, We got a new investment we want to try”

I’m not sure why having a piss drunk technician program porcelain ovens at 4:00 p.m. on a Saturday seemed like it was urgent, but I got a free lunch out of it and 4 hours so I won’t complain.

My boss also bought me an nice bottle of knob Creek later in the week to thank me for coming in on a weekend.

We have stopped sending weapons to Ukraine but have continued sending weapons to Israel.

Nothing about what you describe as is cut and dry as you are describing it. The easiest way to protect global trade from pirates would be to stop using global trade to arm psychopaths.

A friend of mine won the top of the line omen model in a gaming tournament. We went through three of them before we just accepted the thing doesn’t fucking work for shit and demoted it to a Super Gengear 64 Station boy advance and stuffed it under the TV.

My father used to make fun of me for saying that I could hear the TV on even if it was muted, or that I could hear the furnace ‘scream’ before it came on.

One year, I got as a gift for Christmas, a handheld recorder and a fancy microphone from my stepfather a university music professor And that recorder could actually record the sound which he was able to show me on the computer.

That was like 25 years ago, I’ve been working with computers ever since, and now I am familiar with many many many devices that make high pitch whines.
