I have an active job. I still need to add some sort of exercise to my routine.

Yes, but the drop off in replies to new comments is early and sudden.

The extra-specific ask communities where great! Ask science fiction was one of my favorites

Interaction on posts that have been up for more than 8 hours

Maybe the supply of old furniture will dry up, and demand would rise enough to make actual quality furniture feasible again

Fully considered any idea I brought up in earnest, and explained out loud his thought process on why the idea would or would not be helpful.

Gave me enough autonomy to get things done, and he would occasionally check in and was always available for support whenever I hit a roadblock.

Edit to add

He would always say there are about a hundred ways to do most things, and most of those ways would produce an acceptable result in an acceptable time.

I have read this headline so so many times.

Oh definitely. It's naturally easier to give preference to a pretty, smiling face.

I like driving. My commute is not so busy that I have to deal with slowdowns, I can listen to whatever while I go to and from work. It's a nice little break where I decide what is happening. A manual transmission would add to the sense of control, but alas, I haven't bought one of those. Also strictly enforced speed limits limit the enjoyment.

In any law targeting people with that amount of power, the consistent enforcement part is the hardest part.

My guess is, a CEO would take it almost as hard to find out they've lost 100% of their power because the entity they were in charge of no longer exists vs finding out their lives are about to end.

Especially if the CEO in question was legally blocked from being in charge of any other company ever. They can work, they can earn a living, they'd just be blocked from ever climbing the corporate ladder again.

I believe that if it were thoroughly enforced, this fate would seem as bad as death to the awful CEO's of the world.

Unavoidable pain and suffering, sure. This is about contrived, otherwise unnecessary suffering to "prove a point" or pay it forward in a negative way.

Strongly agree. Someone has to break the cycle of abuse, it's wrong to contribute to the cycle so that it can continue harming others in the future.

Edit, one example that comes to mind is the extremely long shifts in the medical field in America. One guy who was really good at being a doctor happened to be someone who voluntarily took on very long hours. Now there is this persistent mindset that every medical worker must accept long hours and double shifts without notice and without complaints.

There are a few cases where it benefits the patient to avoid handing off the case to another doctor, but generally it just limits the pool of people who are willing to go into the medical field, and limits the career length and lifespan of the people who do go for it.

I just like Lemmy more. I could go back and post, I just don't want to add anything to give them more value. I thought I'd look back at what I've posted and commented more often, but I haven't much at all.

It sounds like shooting yourself in the foot, hoping that the people who are no longer in your life will feel the pain.

So no, don't create so much extra work for yourself

Using some of the incoming power to run the AC seems reasonable. Especially when the battery is above 75% charged. It would be interesting if the AC would go harder for more minutes per hour as the charge level gets higher.

Haha, that's awesome!

Has anyone found the places where the navigators work to see how it goes? Has a navigator shared their experience on the web somewhere?

I am very curious as to what they are asked to do and for how many cars And for how much money

Packaging the job as a video game side quest is genius. Make so the gamer has to do several simulated runs before they connect to an actual car, and give in-game expensive consequences for messing it up

I'd want to help out with developing new equipment and vehicles or working on new modifications to existing equipment. Research and Development with goals and limitations kind of stuff.
