  • Whichever editor let them post "100 thousand" should be spanked one 100 times with the severed hand of whatever asshole wrote it in the first place.

  • Yeah but if they don't show which is which I ask them to show too.

    Almost everyone gets screw turning right, it just weeds out a few people who say the right things in emails.

  • I did actually make the mistake of asking just "which way do you turn a screw" once and the person had the sense to ask "to tighten or loosen it?"

  • I've just started doing practical interviews. I basically get really young people with little overall experience and I just want to know if they can do common technical tasks.

    So one question is to literally have them explain how to tighten a bolt. One person failed.

  • It's censeless.

  • Are they networked? Mine are somehow connected and the one that beeps doesn't always seem to be the one that detected the issue.

  • Just Stop Oil targets culturally significant objects to highlight that the viewer's outrage at direct attacks on those objects is greater than the viewer's outrage at the same attacks against those objects by the creators of climate change.

    If throwing washable paint on Stonehenge pisses you off, you should be even more angry at big oil for progressively destroying the entire planet. Any call for the arrest and immediate punishment of Just Stop Oil members should also match calls for the immediate punishment of big oil execs.

    It's juvenile, but it's pointed.

  • Even if they did damage anything their message is that anyone getting mad about damaging works of art or heritage sites through direct action should be just as mad about people destroying the actual entire planet indirectly and calling for their immediate imprisonment too.

    As annoying as I find them and as much as I want to preserve these things, they're exactly right that paintings and rocks mean fuckall if we ruin our only home.

  • If you've seen the film, it will do all the swinging for you.

  • Isn't that kind of the point of Donnie Darko? Comparing it to The Count of Monte Cristo which did that for me, the Count seems like an amazing badass as a kid but just kind of an ass as an adult; he literally says so at the end of the story, but you gloss over it as a kid. Bringing that back to Donnie Darko, he comes to the conclusion the world is better off without him.

  • I'd prefer an empty can of beets.

  • No. It says when they raised their prices according to something other than supply and demand people stopped buying from them.

    Because prices are controlled by supply and demand. Not costs.

    The fact that they also don't understand that doesn't mean you do.

  • Your response is to cite an article proving my point and not understand that?

  • The cost would not increase. That is not how supply and demand works.

    It is extremely unlikely this has not been explained to you before.

  • Ignoring whatever semantic arguments about socialism and communism, it's easier to just point out that statement isn't true.

    Employee-owned businesses are socialist - in the actual definition of socialism where capital is owned by the workers. They work fine, maybe even better than capitalist businesses.

    Fire departments are socialist - in a slightly different definition where a non-capital resource is owned by a community. They definitely work better than the capitalist versions that used to exist.

    The problem with saying anything communist always fails is that they only call it communism when it fails. When it succeeds they just call it something else.

  • "What does error code XYZ mean on my 40 year old limited run old-tech device from a company that stopped existing 39 years ago and never made a manual"

    Vs

    "Is Earth round"

  • Is that a pun on l'inverse?

  • There is a vast resource of nearly all of humanity's collective knowledge that you can tap to learn why a govt doing something doesn't mean it's not capitalism.

  • You could tell she was beautiful even with the prosthetics.
