With how wearily often this seems to happen nowadays, I feel like if I was working somewhere like this I’d be looking at new work immediately as soon as I knew it was getting taken over.

Ideally, there should be some kind of way to prevent this happening in the first place.

But it’s easy for me to say this kind of thing from my pedestal. The only opinions that matter are from those who are involved. There’s nothing more depressing and scary than to know you could be jobless at a moment’s notice.

Well it was about that time that I realised Nomecks was about eight stories tall and was a crustacean from the protozoic era!

USB’s are made from pure electrons. They need to rotate 720 degrees before they make a full turn.

Found him. Rain Epler. He was environmental minister until 2021. He’s part of the conservative party.

This is what he looked like in 2017 - a typical conservative type.

Looks exactly like that.

Dude is likely bald, but bald doesn’t get votes unless you’re Mussolini.

So it’s the awkwardly cut women’s wig instead!

I bet he’s got an iron cross or something tattooed to his head.

I’d say there’s also something to be said about an overbearing workload. If everyone is constantly struggling to get things done in time then more staff could be needed. But yeah, if it’s the same ones over and over and only them, then investigating why makes sense.

It’s for real

Just so you know, I was concerned myself about having not pooped this year so I shared your last post with my girlfriend to show that I wasn’t alone in my poopy predicament!

Needless to say, we’ve been awaiting this update 🫡

I’m sure I’ve been hearing this for at least 15 years at this point. I’ll believe it when I see it.

I think I’m Quilbert most days.

Sounds like a guy I worked with once. He asked me to design a webpage for him. I have zero knowledge on any of that, but he insisted on hiring me as I was apparently one of the most tech-savvy people he knew. I sat in his office for several hours cleverly messing around with PowerPoint putting images and text together. Used the programme’s internal hyperlinks to switch from one page to another. Put presentation mode on so it was full screen so he couldn’t tell I was using PowerPoint.

He put £50 in my hand at the end of it. I never heard from him again. Honestly was 4 of the most awkward hours in my life. £12+ per hour back in 2010 wasn’t a horrendous deal, and I get a neat story to tell!

edit: holy shit, I was telling my girlfriend about this and she informed me he actually got accused of fraud! Further digging on my part reveals they were actually cleared of the charges.

I loved Rocket League - it’s my 2nd most played game on Steam - but honestly that game died for me the moment they took the irregular shaped maps out of rotation to appease the whiny eSports players.

Now it’s just the same shit every match with a slightly different skin. They’ve got all these different modifiers (gravity, ball size, shape and bounciness) and game modes (hockey, basketball, dropshot), yet none of it gets integrated into the main game.

I’m aware that might just be me, and given how many years it’s been since that change, I imagine most of the user base is perfectly fine with how it is now, but it definitely lost its quirkiness from the early days.

We’re generally talking humans here, not Time Lords.

Makes it weird that the Doctor generally travels with people 1-2% of his age. Bloody cradle snatcher!
