I think I have it in my contract that I don’t have to work longer hours just because the time changed. Basically I start work at 9:00 a.m. (or whatever might start time for that week is) and then I finish 8 hours later. Whatever time 8 hours after the start time is, I go home at that time, regardless of what the clocks currently say.

Daylight savings happens in different countries at different times, so might have been today for some people.

They are sanctioning themselves.

What do you want about? I don’t even know what miracle whip is, I’ve never heard of it, but the picture is of Hellman’s which is definitely mayonnaise and not salad cream or anything else

No idea what that is, but the picture is very much of Hellman’s mayonnaise, which is the most mayonnaise of all the mayonnaises

What? Mayonnaise is absolutely still a thing.

It’s great when you do that and they don’t turn up for a while so you put your head back around the corner and it turns out they wandered off.

Gaver you never seen an outwards opening door?

See I wasn’t really going to kill myself today, but the thought of dialing that long ass number is just to much.

I think he was around when the electron came into existence and the dawn of the universe.

Or just be born into a rich family. Not sure that counts as a skill really.

Been born into a rich family and then murdering your way to your inheritance without getting caught, now that’s a skill.

This is one of those rare occasions where the AI was apparently smarter than the person asking the question. It was smart enough not to remove the white space

Today I had to explain to an a linesman (electrical infrastructure technician) what a website was.

He could not get the concept you could just go to a website and he kept googling stuff which doesn’t work because I wanted him to go to an intranet site

I was reading one of those books to my kid once and there was a pig butcher. I’m not sure how that’s supposed to work in the lore of the book. Was he some halliburlector type or was he actually just a butcher. How deep does the analogue go?

Who,.that’s the next mother’s day gift sorted then.

Don’t worry there’ll be a company in 2095 that still using it. They’re always is someone.

My reading just based on the post above is that none paid versions are sharing by default but can be changed to off. All other versions are off by default but can be changed to on.

I don’t understand what the advantage to the developer is supposed to be to let AI scrape their code.

This is how I feel about Jeremy Corbyn in the UK and his stupidly named political party that will go nowhere.

Obstensively he is fairly radically left wing, he’s just not radically in favour of actually doing anything. Basically he sits on the sidelines and mutters about genocide being bad (hot take I know) but otherwise just sits there. The only reason he’s considered a threat is because his party might actually take votes away from labour but if he won an election nothing would change.

Short of an actual uprising against the corporate elite nothing is going to improve. You can certainly not rely on politicians to be your saviours. That’s true globally not just in the US in the UK.

They have one black friend who they are moderately polite to, but by any real metrics they are acquaintances at best.

The centralists would take offence, but you know, they kind of can’t really.
