I was gonna say, this is a leopardsatemyface and selfawarewolves crossover episode!

They’re ribbing you a little bit for making such a weird post. They were worried that fewer users on Lemmy would mean less interesting and unique posts, but here you are, making the most unusual content most of us have seen all day (or week).

Yes everyone, you’re very clever. This is not a real story. But it’s very in-theme for the community and is pretty entertaining so

This is so outrageous that it feels like satire.

Please tell me it’s satire.

Looks like it

I know this is just a meme, but I’ll share something I recently learned since I find it fascinating.

The oceans started out as freshwater! Water evaporated from them, rained down as freshwater and formed into rivers and streams, and the process of flowing picked up trace amounts of salt from the ground and riverbeds. These rivers eventually dumped their ever-so-slightly salty water into the ocean. Then, the tiny tiny tiny bit salty ocean evaporated some pure water out, leaving less water - meaning the remaining water just got a little bit saltier in comparison. This process repeated for millions of years and those tiny increments resulted in the very salty oceans we have now.

What I really don’t get with these sort of theories is: If something as unethical and outlandish as harvesting organs from a healthy, living person were occurring like this, you really think they’re going to look at a little checkbox on your driver’s license and be like “ah dang no permission for evil today, guess this fucker gets to live”

There are better ways to manage your anxiety than with nicotine. You’re anxious about your parents finding out because you know they’ll be upset, and they’ll be upset because of the negative impact you’re having on yourself by vaping. Maybe you should consider why they would feel that way.

I have no advice for you, as I live in a very humid place without very much risk of static shocks. I just want to say this question and post are hilarious.

I’m with you, it’s confusing. But I think what it means is this:

The study ran for 90 days. Non-sterol bees had stopped doing bee sex by then. Sterol bees were doin it all the way up to the end of the 90 days - and then the study ended. We can therefore assume they wanted to continue having freaky beedsm sex for even longer.

I’m constipated and sober so this sounds like a win-win to me

Wait, but cooking for one sucks. Cooking for 10 sucks harder, but cooking for 2-4 is better than for 1 imo, unless you want to eat the same dinner a few nights in a row

Ugh guys come on, don’t let perfect be the enemy of good (or better). We cannot snap our fingers and fix everything. Incremental steps are necessary.

My real guess is water. You have a flash flood river dumping several tons of water at those doors and I bet it crumples them just like that

Painful read, as it resonates with me. I think I’m pretty hot shit but was humbled by the interview processes a few years back.

But in a different vein, found myself laughing at this reply in the comments:

Peter Lindberg 9 months ago

This reminds me about the time I almost got fired. I was at work, playing an intense round of table tennis, when the CEO burst out of his office. "This is it everybody!" he yelled, running over to the Big Wheel. He gave the wheel a spin, and then hurriedly explained "I've got a linked list and I need to know if it contains a cycle!"

I watched the wheel slow to a stop and panic set in as I realized the pointer was on my name. All eyes were on me as the whole team rushed into the Coding Room. I opened our communal laptop and started up notepad, which was the only application it was capable of running. The CIO loved to brag how he had cut 1% of costs by eliminating laptop and IDE purchases.

Everyone watched intently as I started to implement a linked list in C, which I needed to do before starting on the actual problem. I was pretty sure I knew how to solve this problem, so I started banging out some code. Then I hit a mental block. Someone behind me said meekly "couldn't we just google this?" The crowd had barely begun to gasp and murmur at this suggestion when the CEO shouted "No! That's not how we do it!"

I began to sweat. "How much time do I have left?" I said. "Five minutes!" was the panicked reply from one of my teammates. Suddenly I remembered the final part of the solution and frantically began to type again. "What happens if he runs out of time?" someone whispered. "Nobody knows... But do you really want to find out?" someone else said. I knew I'd be fired at the very least.

"Done!" I said confidently, and the CEO peered over my shoulder at the screen. After a few seconds, his eyes narrowed. "Ssssyntax error" he hissed. My heart raced as I scanned the code for the error. I found it just in time! A missing semicolon. Everyone sighed in relief and resumed their ping-pong and foosball games. I chuckled to myself and thought "this is why they pay us the big bucks!"

We're not actually sure what the company's product is. Whatever it is though, it relies exclusively on things like sorting and searching algorithms, and somehow doesn't need data storage, infrastructure, networking, apis, or any of that amateur stuff.

Honestly guys I think we should just let her have this one. I think she needs it.
