Most of the time does it suck but sometimes is it a hallelujah moment when they call because they keep asking the same question and it feels like I have explained it in so many ways already that I am starting to wonder if I am the problem. But thankfully does this not happen often and it is usually only ppl who do not work in the same field (aka do not think in the same way and do not have the knowledge).

It made me chuckle a little imaging that you do a full 365 degree spin Infront of Microsoft and then walk away (in an awkward way), instead of 180 degrees to walk the opposite direction haha

Exactly this, they are usually young too and they know their only job is to fire ppl and/or do decisions that will make most if not all unhappy. I have only seen it once my self but a lot of friends went through that at their company.

I might not fully grasp what you said, but from my understanding, they were discussing intersex people. In these cases, it’s not an either/or situation at birth regarding sex characteristics or chromosomes. It could be a mix of various combinations, or sometimes none at all. The Y chromosome might not be fully present, which means a penis might not exist at birth, or it could be very small (and possibly non-functional for urination), but there may still be internal testicles (which I understand is quite common for some “types” of intersex ppl). In your interpretation, does this mean that there are individuals with a Y chromosome and then there is the rest of the population?

So, we have XY, XYY, XXY versus the others, who might have just one X, two Xs, or a partial Y (I think there were other combinations too). That doesn’t seem very binary to me. It’s like saying you’re either a kid (under 18 in most countries) or an adult, which doesn’t cover everyone and doesn’t say much either. But maybe we took your comment too serious.

However, labels have always been a tool to simplify life, and they have never been strictly binary. It’s similar to organizing a home with labels, there is always at least one drawer labeled other/miscellaneous.

There are as many intersex people as there are redheads, and they can have two sets of sex organs, no organs, or a combination of organs. This wide category range is why the person you responded to mentioned the parts, as these visibly influence how one’s sex is documented. Intersex conditions can sometimes make this categorization extremely challenging.

No it is the opposite, this is the first paragraph in the article:

Mastodon announced Monday that it’s shifting its structure over the next six months to become wholly owned by a European nonprofit organization—“affirming the intent that Mastodon should not be owned or controlled by a single individual.”

I have many stories how I either accidentally cut into my fingers or break the bones. But most of them was pretty logical (still stupid tho) why it happened but one time was I going to lift up my friend + the chair they sat on for the lols and my ring fingers bone broke… I don’t know how… Your guess is as good as mine

My cat loves sleeping with his face pressed inside my armpit or as close as possible in the bend of my arm. Sometimes, he can’t breathe that well, so he does the swimmer’s thing where he pulls up his head, takes a deep breath, and then goes back in 😂

Pretty much any jrpg for Gameboy, DS, PSP and PS2 (haven’t tried many newer). I loved them a lot as a kid/teen but now when I try to play them do I get bored very quickly… I think the audience is supposed to be kids and teens so I am not surprised I don’t enjoy them anymore

Yes, I think other types of stores are better at it. But the stores that are only groceries, are there any that use that?

I saw it a bit late, they actually have a number assigned to the sign. Do they use a number system already? Who is it for?

I wish grocery stores (especially those you can also order from online) had a page where you could pick the store (if there are multiple) and then search for the thing you need and it had a number label that would be associated with the section it is in. This weird example from op would be: beer 10, butter 10, wine 10 etc without it being confusing because it isn’t a category anymore and you only need to look in that section instead of looking like a lost kid running around in the whole store. Also filling up that big sign with just a number would be a lot easier to read from far away.

They can keep the categories if they stick to them, like meat, bread, snacks and so on so ppl who do not care about the number system can still kinda guess like today…

I am with you 100%! Instead of buying a mid tier chair did we get a high tier chair for the same price. It is good for the environment, your wallet and your body, big win!

I am with you I never considered that an option and I don’t want to think about it either. But I do think our parents gets/got a lot (depending on how our grandparents lived) more than we will. My grandparents left house and money and even a vacation house so my parents could put the sould houses and furnitures money into building their own house. My mom even gave me and my sister a bit to use to buy our first apartments. It is still money even tho it is pretty sad way to “earn” money… I assume your friends parents lived in rented apartments if there was not much left.

No, but Crandall have it without the headrest for the same price. I am still contemplating if I like the headrest or not.

Crandall seem to have a lot of nice reviews so they seem like a good pick.

Welcome to the worlds of apps, where most files and folders are autogenerated so you need to use an ide made for it (in this case swift) to make sense of it. I work with apps so little now days that I forget the structure and get just as confused as I was the first time I saw it haha

A new chair, I had a gaming chair that killed my butt and back (was cheap and had it for 6 years) now I got a true ergonomic chair, and wow! I didn’t think the difference would be as big as it is. I didn’t want to sit by my computer because of the old chair. This one follows my body movement in the back so I can stretch and move without feeling restricted.

Here is a link to it, but I bought mine from a refurbish store that fix up office furnitures from companies and resell them so I got it for less than half the price and it is like new. https://www.steelcase.com/products/office-chairs/think/

Sound Only - only for media were watching would be boring like video podcasts, unless they hold something up then I look up for a bit. For only visuals - I rarely play mobile games with sounds or any other apps.

Interesting! That sounds a bit like the experiment Roger Sperry did, where multiple pls brains were split and one of the half’s just kept on rationalize everything the other half did even if it didn’t make sense to it.

I laughed a lot when I saw this and I sent it to my parent who laughed too. This is my parents house right now. They want buttons for their lamps but they were forced to get an app for most of them and had to fight the company to put in buttons. They also got a ventilation system without buttons and they could not get buttons except if they payed for a very expensive hub, so they went for the app. But only one person can be connected at a time and you have to unpair before someone else can pair, so the app act as if it is the hub… it is very strange

Understandable, but I can’t really talk for someone else than my self. My example was about me being on time and therefore most do the same because it was something I felt was mutual. I would never tell them that they need to change for my sake, if I would then it would be for our relationships sake. How can I tell someone I wish them to be on time if I am not?

And ofc it is about interest, I want a harmonious relationship regardless what kind of relationship it is, to be respected then I need to respect the person back. It isn’t like I walk around and think about this haha

But you did make me curious and I am still curious, so far can I only assume what you refer to.

I think we are talking about different things. To me is It not meant to be used against someone but to better yourself and understand consequences of your own actions. It is mainly said to kids like you said. But it sounds like you hear it a lot in arguments which is not how I think it should be used.
