Girl, you thought he was a man
But he was a muffin
He hung around till you found
That he didn’t know nuthin’

Factorio and Project Hail Mary.

…and that’s how the Factorio expansion “Space Age” was born.

That strategy worked well when it was just me and the ~10 articles of clothing I own. But now that I’m in a household of six that approach doesn’t work anymore.

My bachelor strategy was clothes in three categories:

• Clean (in the dryer)
• Dirty (bathroom or laundy room)
• Usable (Bedroom and livingroom)

Sorting and Folding laundry

It’s not a lemmy-wide thing, it’s on a community basis: Once a community has enough mods to require some inter-mod chat, then someone usually takes the initiative to set one up.

This. Most mod discussions (at least the ones I’m in) take place on Matrix

Him, and CathodeRayDude were my immediate thoughts. Both are great, but neither do new stuff.

Scandinavia, provided the banter between the people/cultures remain

I’ve done both. No need to grovel, but you can call me “your excellence”

Disclaimer: I don’t know, and I have no particular k owledge in this field, I’m only reasoning here…

I think those four directions are natural to use regardless of culture, based on our senses and bodies. There are things you can see, and things you can’t, namely in front of you and behind you. And your references to the sides would naturally be your hands, where most people can distinguish right as dominant. These would serve as simple reference points in terms of directions, so the question is, if your bodies were different, for example asymetric, would our directions also be?

Imagine of we had four ears, two forward and two back, could that result in eight basic directions? What would it take for us to have three?

Still four directions, but it’s interesting that they use an absolute point of reference as opposed to the more common relative ones.

You can. But the prefilled one implies they’re already OK with the terms. Adding/changing stuff requires their approval. If both parties agree to the altered version, then there’s no problem.

I doubt they’ll allow a special case just for you, though.

I have returned additions/corrections to employment contracts and had them accepted. My usually go to is to change the overly broad “we own all IPRs developed by you” to “we own all IPRs that come from work related tasks or as a direct furtherance thereof”. If they want to own anything I developed outside work for my own projects then that’s fine, but then they’d have to pay extra.

I like the idea, and might get back into it (restarting), but previous time I started it I was thrown off by the overuse of metaphors. Maybe it’s just an introduction-thing, but I found it very cumbersome to always have to read “The thing was X, like and Y that had undergone Z” instead of just “the thing was worn and green”.

Yes, I know that writers should show rather than tell, but when the reader has to spend most of the reading time parsing metaphors that could’ve instead just been a factual statement, it becomes a very cumbersome read.

But I will give it another go. I like the sci-fi classics, and I suspect I’d like this one too

Thanks for drawing it so I didn’t have to; I got nerd sniped from seeing what seemed like two identical circuits with shared ground

Free except from the drive to get there. But the drive is a lot cheaper than those racks would cost.
