I don't have one. I just slam my door in people's faces, like most others.

Once again I see more warmth and depth of emotion in that low-poly avatar than in the man it's based on.

I've been let down by shock revelations about content creators so many times I'm starting to think they're awful people by default.

There's a reason they say you shouldn't meet your heroes.

I don't see why not. Identical twins are the same age.

kids getting ground up in a mill for playing a prank or getting their thumbs cut off for sucking on them.

That sounds like Struwelpeter. Yeah, quality entertainment there.

Even surrounded by filth you can choose to be clean.

I'm an IT purchaser for a public health system. Get rid of me and my colleagues and the system would keep ticking over for years in some form.

But I'm a small part of something very important.

Quiet spaces. Just sitting and breathing for a while is a valuable activity. It doesn't have to make money to be worth doing.

Surely this time won't be like all the other times.

It's so hard to pick just one. They all have their moments.

...except Miss Piggy, who has always annoyed me beyond measure.

Plus you get to see Anthony Stewart Head sing while mutilating people.

Finance. I sit in an office 40 hours a week to make my foobar number go up. Other people will give me things, but make my foobar number go down. At one point someone gave me a building, but made my number go down to the point where I had less than no foobars. And because I owed the right kind of foobars to the right kind of people, other people were willing to pretend I had foobars.

Damage by weapon rating instead of making a separate damage roll. Yes or no?

I'm working on a personal project that involves calculating the mean, median and mode of word length in a series of poems. I've imported the first into LibreOffice Calc as a CSV, and have about 600 cells of word lengths.

Calc has Average, Median and Mode functions, but they only accept 255 inputs each. I could split the cells into batches of three and then work with those results, but it feels like that would only let me calculate the overall mean, not the other two figures.

So firstly, am I even using the right tool for this? Maybe there's a better way than using a spreadsheet. And secondly, if a spreadsheet is the best tool, is there a way I can do the calculations I need?

Especially if the sinners still need their punishment?

Either all at once, or over a lifetime?

My position is that it's a snack and husband tax must be paid. My wife is arguing that it's a meal or occupies some third food space and it's entirely hers. Who's right, court of Lemmy?

To explain what I mean, I think you can level up a cooking style. For example, pasta. At level 1, you're boiling dried pasta and adding sauce out of a jar. At level 1, you add your own spices. Level 3, switch to fresh pasta. Level 4, make your own sauce. And finally at level 5, make the pasta from scratch.

So with BBQ, I guess level 1 would be cooking the meat so it's neither burnt nor underdone. Maybe level 2 is mixing different meats/cuts that have different heat/time requirements and cooking well. Further levels = ?

Message bullets (lemmy.world)

Picture this: you're working in a large open-plan office and you need to send a message to Steve at the other end of the room. You pull out your messenger handgun, dictate your message (because you paid for the voice recognition feature) and let it engrave your words on a bullet. Then you simply fire it at the target mounted above Steve's cube!

Fast, attention-getting and simple. It's the perfect system.

I'm sharing this because any reduction in unnecessary packaging waste is good for the planet - and because I think laser-etching avocados is funny. 🙂
