I told them I don’t do weapons. The word “weapon” was said like 8 times in a client meeting.

Do these robots actually physically tend bar? I can’t find video of one pouring a drink or whatever.
God I wish somebody would leave me the fuck behind
My understanding is that they use Google’s index. It’s just that unlike Google, they aren’t motivated to give you shit results to keep you on their page longer.

Humor@lemmy.world•What's the best practical joke you played at work?English
4·1 天前Yeah. WordPress spam. Haven’t touched the blog in a decade, so it kind of ran rampant.
And as I say in the post, we had a history of pranks, and I was ready to replace the keyboard if he didn’t like it.

I too full screen single cells when editing spreadsheets.
But mostly because I can self-host

41·4 天前I just finished Enshitification by Cory Doctorow.
In it, he points out that your right to record what is on TV for your personal use was hard won and completely legal only for it to later be uninvented.
And now we’re back to debating if it’s legal.

16·4 天前Ebikes are heavy, but these people probably drove to the trailhead and lifted their bikes off trailers/racks. Why would a knee-high fence stop them?

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is something that you want but can't justify to do / buy right now ?
16·4 天前I really want to do an electric conversion of a Geo Tracker.
One with a blown engine showed up on Craigslist for $1k two weeks before my daughter’s due date.
Next time.
I once shot a wedding that was scheduled around a full moon. I replaced the moon in the photos with a NASA image, color matched it, and made it like 5x bigger than the original.
Nobody noticed.

Oddly Satisfying@lemmy.world•Look how perfectly my pizza slices fit in my leftovers box!English
3·5 天前When I was in highschool, the cafeteria made pizza by just rolling up the long ends of a rectangle of dough and cutting it into trianges. Same effect as your pizza box.
A much more efficient way to make pizza with approximately the same result.
*looks at reflection*
OP, are you a hammer head shark?

It was in earnest. I’m one of the haters and this got a chuckle out of me.




















All roads in aerospace apparently lead to weapons.
We were working on a jet engine controller for a miniature engine. But turns out the first application this jet engine startup was targeting is cruise missiles.
And my boss still doesn’t consider it defense work because the designs could be used for the other applications the client was pitching like power generation or commercial aircraft.
Except we were targeting features like being able to cold start at 50,000 feet, fitting the electronics inside the engine cowling, and having a total operational lifespan of two minutes.
