It's been a long time, but I used to work at a corporate dining place that did a lot of take out business. I once had a man ask for "as much thousand island dressing as possible".

I was going to just give him two portions, but my coworker convinced me to fill a large soda cup instead. Why not? We worked for tips after all.

The customer was pretty bewildered. He clearly didn't really want that much dressing.

I thought we were all looking at the same 10 posts here!

That's how I like to see us too, but I've definitely met some Z hating millennials.

I met a fellow "old millennial" recently who said "we're the last generation to be raised right". I disagree, but hearing it from a guy my age really cemented me in old man status.

Then he told me he had 3 kids. Who's responsible for raising that generation!? Lol.

If I had my way, regulations would require a physical connection for all door handles, and not just that a secondary physical release be available. I don't know how you would go about finding injuries associated with each design as a layperson, but I bet there's a death or two associated with each novel design.

An old man roasted in his Cadillac XLR because the battery was dead and he didn't know where the secondary release was. I think it's under the seat on that car. I don't care how cool that electronic door release was, or if the old man was negligent in not knowing his exits; it wasn't worth his life.

Another thing about automotive (and probably most industries) is that large portions of the labor are contracted through agencies. Even most entry level engineers are contract now. So that figure doesn't include many of the lower paid positions in these facilities.

It's a good reminder of how influenced we are by our surroundings, even when we try to be aware of the effect. Or maybe especially when we try to be aware.

I was staying strong until I saw they were already sundowning windows 10. 10! They just came out with that shit. I have no intention of upgrading to the latest advertising package.

I'm still figuring out Lemmy image posting. This is my SP36 diffuser (and my s2+ diffuser). I'm sure yours will be much more practical.

I think you might have to get more engagement before a BST thread really takes off. Kind of a chicken or the egg thing.

I'd love to see build/mod threads though.

Losing a friend is so hard. It affected me in ways I never expected. Family is easier in some ways.

The kind people are out there, but they're harder to see sometimes, especially on the internet. Hang in there, and be kind to yourself.

Can't go wrong with 519A. 5700K dedomed would be just above 4000K if you're looking for nicer tint.

It certainly creates an incentive to act in ways that please the customer at the expense of the business. But the restaurant controls your access to the customer, so it's best to tread lightly.

So all you have to do is go to your own auction and bid the car well above its value. Once you owe yourself more than you owe the car company, you can file a title 27i to legally remove 50% of your name and transfer that value from the worth of your name contract to settle all remaining debt.

Then you can walk away with the car, and usually, your legal name gets cooler anyway. I used to be JEFFERY POUTINE but now I'm just JEF POUT. It even fits on a standard 7 digit international non-commercial traveling placard!

Lol, that's why I'm here too. I've had enough.

I'm in, thanks for moderating!

This is the first time I've thought about Tucker in months. In a way I'm glad, because it reminded me that he's not often in my life anymore, but if we could all just stop mentioning him until he fades completely that would be great.

I agree! And I like to think that, as he looked over his several bottles worth of dressing in a beverage cup, he did learn to consider his words more carefully.

But I didn't mind the whole experience. It's not my dressing and it made for a pretty funny story.

There are bikes out there with driven front wheels. Jeep and Hummer have even released bikes under their brands with this design. It has a shaft that travels through the downtube to the front wheel.

This is not a design that is taken seriously in performance biking, at least as far as I know. Maybe there's a low speed rock crawling group that I'm unfamiliar with. But if you're looking for something unique that can crawl up tough terrain, you might enjoy it.

I'll leave the serious mountain bike recommendations to everyone else. There are plenty of good ones here already.

They're wheelie bars, to limit how far the front wheels come off the ground when it accelerates.
