  • Ads when you’re pumping gas

    Jump

  • Well, sure, but not on our gas pumps. Only on TV and radio. And in magazines and movies and at ball games, on buses and milk cartons and T-shirts and bananas and written on the sky. But not on gas pumps. No, sir-ee!

  • How amazing is the udder? Multiple boobs shaped like wieners. Genius.

  • Month-long awareness celebrations

  • And May was the month of Mary!

  • What are some tips for a job interview?

    Jump

  • Search for interview questions online. I think Glassdoor used to have a place for interview questions. If it's a national/multinational corporation, there is a fair chance the standard interview questions are already out there.

    Even if that specific set of interview questions isn't posted online, interview questions for that kind of job have been. If it's a small company, the hiring manager may doing the same web search to find questions to ask you.

    In the worst case, you've found a set of questions to start the thought process.

    Lastly, near they end of the interview, when they ask if you have questions, ask the interviewer why they like working there. At good places to work, they will have no problem coming up with reasons. An interviewer who struggles to answer the question is a red flag. Either way, you look prepared and look like you've given thought to the interview.

  • Is their any evolutionary benefit to the sneezing reflex when looking at a bright light source, or is it just an evolutionary glitch with no purpose?

  • Come visit Disney with my family this fall. You'll see me and my kid both sneeze every time we step into the Florida sun after leaving a slightly darkened show build.

  • Does anyone here know about any FOSS office suite for android?

    Jump

  • I started switching over to plaintext files with Markdown a few years ago. It's been great for interoperability. I don't need to use a heavy program on my desktop or phone. I can view, edit, whatever I need as long as I have terminal access.

  • Outstanding work

    Jump

  • Wait... Is this detrimentum?

  • I saw this odd looking dude trying to blend in during the news announcing the new pope.

    Jump

  • That's easy. It's Mykola Bychok. He's from one of the Eastern Rite churches.

  • Anyone?

  • I'm not going to tell you how long I looked at this, expecting to find loss or Saddam Hussein.

  • This is brilliant!

  • This is exactly what I thought, and in the same order.

  • HP agrees million-dollar settlement over "false advertising" on PCs, keyboards

  • They were just very good friends.

  • Is it not the same software they heard about in 2010?

  • One might say it's been a long road...

    Jump

  • No they're not gonna change my mind

  • Why do we even do mens vs womens sizes for clothes?

    Jump

  • I worked for a clothing store in college. I leaned that each store / clothing producer has an ideal body shape they cut the clothes for, with some variation. The higher end store you shop at, the fewer variations.

    Higher end shops usually cater to a specific body shape and size. Those clothes will fit a handful of people extremely well. Big box stores will have clothes that fit everyone, but that fit will be so-so for everyone.

  • Can the Internet Archive claim that it's developing it's own AI and should have rights to scan everything and serve it to "customers?"

  • McDonald’s Customers Will Get Their Meals With a Side of AI

    Jump

  • A certain alabaster fortress near me encourages you to use an AI when ordering at the drive thru. It's terrible. It had the hardest time decoding my order of "a number one with cheese." I hate that this is the direction the industry is moving.
