  • People ought to deny ICE service for a start. Anyone in their vicinity can contribute and nothing is too small.

    If they want anything from you, it's your duty to make sure they can't have it.

    If they order a sandwich, they should be told the sandwich maker is broken today. Every day. If they need a car repair, that part will take six months to arrive. When they pay for electricity, their payment was misplaced. Their garages should be blocked by parked cars. The garbage truck should accidentally drive past their property again this week. Etc.

    Don't be an ICE collaborator.

  • I just think that the head of the brush is a rather arbitrary threshold for when a toilet brush is considered icky or not. The whole thing, including your hands, go into the toilet when you use it. Being able to detach the brush head hand free is a very small but costly improvement. I'd go as far as calling it a false sense of security.

    Also, I wash my butthole when I shower. With my hand.

  • Ja jeg er enig, men det er altså baggrunden for hvorfor det er så ringe.

    Arbejdsgiverne har været vant til slet ikke at tage socialt ansvar, og det er kun blevet indført gradvist i små skridt ved overenskomstforhandlingerne, hvor det jo altså skal accepteres af begge parter.

    Fordelen ved at det er en "frivillig* aftale er at der ikke er de samme krav til det som hvis det var politisk bestemt. Man skal da heldigvis ikke fremvise lægeerklæring.

  • Vi har lige fået barnets 3. sygedag ind i den nye overenskomst. Det er dog kun den første dag som er betalt af arbejdsgiveren. De andre skal betales af fritvalgskontoen.

    Det forventes at man arbejder hjemmefra i det omfang som er muligt, men... når jeg selv skal finansiere 2. og 3. dag, så kan jeg ikke se nogen fidus i at arbejde på de dage. I praksis giver det også fortsat grundlag for ikke at ville holde dem overhovedet eller at det er den partner med bedste vilkår som holder dem.

    Så jo, det er dejligt at have rettigheden, men det ville være bedre hvis det var betalt og fastsat ved lov. Ikke bare for den ansatte, men også for de virksomheder som gerne vil tage ansvar.

    Jeg er ellers mest tilhænger af at løse problemerne gennem overenskomst fremfor lovgivning, men i dette tilfælde vil jeg hellere at der kommer klare linjer. Det er konkurrenceforvridning at de usolidariske virksomheder får en økonomisk fordel. Vi skal ikke belønne virksomheder som ikke tager socialt ansvar.

  • There's a sort of labyrinth called Troy Town labyrinths that supposedly have the effect of solving problems for anyone who walks it. It's obviously pseudo numble jumble, but there might be something to it.

    It's not a labyrinth as such, because there's only one route from the entrance to the center and no choices to be made. It's laid out so that the turns go both left and right and the length varies between turns.

    Walking through it requires very little thinking and is not super exciting, but the changes ln direction at unpredictable times are enough to keep the consciousness occupied so the subconscious mind can get to work.

    Historically they were used for worshipping, which aligns with the idea of getting revelations.

    I'm not sure if it's better or worse than a regular walk in the park, but I think there's a point to it, because it removes all conscious choices and gets you into the zone of just "doing" something, allowing the brain to work without interference.

    Try it, if you can find one.

  • An office is usually divided in different departments that have different functions.

    In no particular order, not exhaustive, and skipping management and IT, typical functions could be:

    Customer service. Pick up the main phone line and check the official mail box, talk to customers, redirect calls to other departments.

    Sales coordinators. Receive orders from customers, through sales representatives or by web etc. They basically ensure that all incoming orders have the proper data to be processed. Keeps track of order confirmations and maybe send data back to the customers.

    Logistics. Arrange shipments from suppliers, to customers and between stock locations. Files all documents for toll and tariffs.

    Debtor controllers. Keeps track of customer payments, outgoing invoices, payment plans, sending reminders and debt collection.

    Creditor controllers. Register incoming invoices. Get approvals from whoever ordered it and pays the bills on time or whenever it makes most sense for discounts and such.

    Finance controllers. Keeps track of the entire balance sheet. Bank reconciliations, cash flow, investments, files and pays taxes. General bookkeeping that doesn't fit in the other departments. Does the financial statements, reporting, monthly, quarterly or annually.

    Purchasing, HR/Payroll and PR/marketing are self-explanatory I think.

    All of these administrative functions are necessary in most companies, but in smaller companies it all could very well be done by a single person, while in large companies they might have several people in each department.

    Many companies have several subsidiaries or other constructions, so tasks or functions can also be spread out like that. For instance, I can be the creditor department in one company while also doing finance in another or payroll in a third. So while the functions are somewhat strictly defined by the tasks, it's only in very large companies that someone does just one function.

    All office functions are constantly being made more efficient. A lot of it is truly boring, so it's in everyone's interest to automate as much as possible. I don't feel sorry for someone losing their office job to an algorithm, no, I'm happy for them not having to do it anymore.

    It's not a stupid question. When I was interviewing for my first office job back in 2001, I literally asked if they could show me what I had to do.

    Seing someone who entered data into a program, I asked if that's it? You really want me to just enter data into that program? OK, I can do that. And so I was hired to put numbers into boxes on the screen and have been doing that ever since. Not the same program of course. I've been around all departments by now and spend most of my work time working on avoiding typing numbers into boxes.

  • The relevant video on poison pilling audio: https://youtu.be/xMYm2d9bmEA

    For text, I suppose it's similar to writring nonsense in background color instead of spaces or by using an invisible font. AI could probably figure it out and filter it.

    The reason it works for music is that AI doesn't really understand the "grammar" of music, so it just treats it like an image.

    Valg af mørtel til reparation af murværk?

    Jeg skal reparere murværk omkring en yderdør i en kælder. Tømreren som lavede døren har slået ret store stykker af muren af omkring hele murhullet, så det er lidt mere end en tynd pudsning som skal til.

    Jeg vil ikke bygge en lysning af træ/gips men bare mure op, pudse og male. Det passer bedst med resten af kælderen hvor det hele bare er gammelt murværk og puds.

    Jeg tænker på at lave midlertidige støtter af brædder for at få det nogenlunde lige, særligt i toppen, men det bliver alligevel nogle dybe ujævnheder som skal udfyldes. Jeg er derfor i tvivl om det kan gøres med "universal mørtel" som måske kun er egnet til tynd pudsning eller om der skal bruges noget mere cement-agtigt som kan holde til større dybde. Altså, jeg vil hellere lave en god solid fyldning end at skulle vente på at 10 lag af tynd puds tørrer. Jeg kan ikke rigtigt finde sådan et produkt?

    Skal/kan man evt. fylde op med mindre stykker mursten eller andet undervejs?

    Hvordan gør man?

    question about online tabs and fonts

    How do I best view tabs from pages like ultimate guitar and others on a phone browser, so that the chords and lyrics match up? I know on pc they usually show up fine in notepad or with ASCII fixed sys font, but I can't quite figure out how to set it up for easy browsing on an android phone. I tried copying it to other apps but none of them have a fixed width font.

    How do you do it?

    Nicky Guerrero - hand plant

    A local skatepark held an official opening inviting Rune Glifberg and Nicky Guerrero to do a demo. The weather was tricky, but in between rain they managed to pull off a few tricks in the deep end. I didn't get a good photo of Rune.

    Old chest (solved)

    I am restoring an old chest and while removing a cover under the lid I found this label. As you can see, it's completely undecipherable except for "***halle & co." However there's another label underneath it. I wonder if I can separate them by putting it in water (like stamps off an envelope), but I'm afraid of destroying it if it has any value whatsoever.

    The chest is made of wood and metal, but it's in a horrible state. Hinges and screws have been replaced prior to my owning, and the wood is damaged. I plan on restoring it, but would like to know it's history. Judging by materials and the label, I recon this is from 1900-1940s and American.

    Optifine won't install on Linux Cinnamon

    I'm trying to install Optifine on a Linux Mint Cinnamon laptop. Minecraft Java edition of course.

    The game works and has been launched in version 1.20.1, but the Optifine installer keeps saying that I need run version 1.20.1 first.

    Also, the installer is already pointing at the correct directory as default, but when I browse the location from the installer, I can't see or set the .minecraft directory manually.

    What to do?

    blur - wembley

    Now, I've been to many concerts and even several blur concerts, but this one felt .. special. Even better than the Hyde park concerts 10+ years ago. Anyone else there?

    To me it was like watching their proudest achievement and also delivering on it. Maybe I'm just in awe of the brimfull Wembley stadium shouting along on Park Life, but it definitely felt like this was the final grand stadium concert. I've seen Aerosmith, Green Day, Guns'n'Roses and other larger bands on a full arenas before, but those didn't even come close to this. Despite everything being extremely professionally and on time, they managed to break the wall between the stage and the 90000 in audience.

    I'm not even a blur fan as such, but I do acknowledge that their contribution to music is way way underappreciated, or maybe it actually isn't?

    The warm-ups sucked, but I think those were a local thing, but the main band really came across brilliantly. I dunno..this was beyond just great, and I have no hopes of e

    et lille tip til hækklipning

    Jeg vil gerne dele et tip, fordi jeg kan se at mange her i nabolaget åbenbart ikke kender det.

    De fleste gør sådan: Hækken klippes, affaldet rives sammen, bunkerne læsses på trillebør og trillebøren tømmes på traileren, og til sidst skal traileren tømmes med rive, kost og skovl på genbrugspladsen.

    Nej nej nej, prøv lige at høre her:

    Det vigtigste redskab til hækklipning er ... 2 stk. presseninger. De billige fra Harald Nyborg kan fint bruges.

    Den ene pressening lægges i traileren. Den skal bare ligge der.

    Den anden lægges under hækken der hvor du klipper. På den måde falder affaldet direkte ned på presseningen. Når den er godt fuld, så løfter man lige alle hjørner og slæber den over på traileren. Hvis der meget så kan man lige vende den og fortsætte med næste del af hækken. Alternativt kan man købe flere presseninger og bare smide dem alle på traileren.

    Ellers, når traileren er fuld, så køres der til genbrugspladsen hvor hele læsset kan trækkes ud med trailer-presseningen o
