I’ve never seen a business where managers are above execs in the pecking order. Is this specific to some industry?

While I mostly agree, there is a difference. In Spotify, you can play a song and it highlights the lyrics as they are sung

Do you have the space and tools to do a tire swap? The difference is pretty big. If you can, you might want to try dual sport tires. Be careful out there, smooth tires on a trail can be dangerous. Even gravel. Plus, knobbier tires will make the whole experience more fun and you’ll be able to deal with slightly rougher terrain overall.

Awesome. Do you find it tricky to ride trails without off-road tires?

Years ago, when projectors were common in conference rooms. Someone was giving a practice presentation before the real deal in front of 80+ audience members. It was just our team of 8 or so the room for the dry run. In the middle of the presentation, there was a terrifyingly loud POP sound as the bulb blew out in the projector. It scared the shit out of everyone in the room. We all laughed after the initial shock wore off.

One of my coworkers stepped up on a table to take a look at it. I was near him and I waited for silence in the room while he was fucking with the thing, and clapped my hands together very loudly, simulating the previous scare. He let out a shriek of terror and clutched his chest. Everyone laughed. Eventually he laughed as well, but said something like “damn, that scared me.” Within a week he had a legit heart attack.

He was ultimately okay, but I still think about it. I know I didn’t cause it, but for a long time I couldn’t shake the guilty feeling that I contributed to it. Oops. Sorry Ken.

I agree wholeheartedly and as her manager, I intend to defend her position. In the meantime, we’re working together to upskill her in other areas to prepare. These are very technical documents, so we have some time. I would hate to lose her because she is smart, dedicated, and compassionate

Yes. I have a document translator on my team that’s being slowly replaced by AI. Her job is “more efficient” for now because she has AI translation tools available to her, but the technology is getting good fast and it’s not long before they essentially replace her

Aneurysm posting. Maybe chill out on the drugs for a while?

I’m curious, how does it work?

Counterpoint: Considering the scale of Lemmy compared to reddit, it’s hard to strike a chord. Suspend your doubt and keep making music jokes on a regular cadence. Someday you’ll hit the right tempo and and reach harmony with other users who recognize it as your signature style.

lol

Yeah, totally. As someone who used reddit for 10 years and had comment karma in the several hundreds of thousands, it still pisses me off that it was ruined in the way it was

Phonetically, it’s exactly right, but It visually reads like the name of a Vulcan side character from an episode of star trek

Woah, there’s still a community for GW?! I played many, many hours way back when it was new and pretty well after that, but I had no idea it was still chugging along

I’ve awarded you Lemmy gold 🪙. It’s buried 8 feet down in your backyard located at this exact coordinate: 37.78499221801758,-122.3960189819336

It’s the same for me too. I went last night and there were maybe 20 other people in the theater with us. I live in a very densely populated area. RIP theaters I guess

I really do hope you’re right

There was zero plan as usual. The thing is, imagine what’s going to happen after Trump. Imagine someone who is actually charismatic and smart in Trump’s place who tows the same basic line. That’s what really scares me

That’s because it’s a toxic community
