I got a 0% raise, at least you got something :/


Sorry friend, hopefully you find a place that values you more soon.


I had a dishwasher at my last place, landlord special and everything. But it was smart, if you did a load of dishes, a little led would turn on saying it's done. The led wouldn't turn back off until the dishwasher was fully closed. So you could open it, be lazy and take a clean fork out, and then close it most of the way, and the clean light would stay on.


It only happened twice, for less than 48 hours


Always gotta remember the people who have to scrape your body off the ground don't work for free


I've really been enjoying Leaf Blower Revolution. it's a very long term game. I've been playing it for maybe 2 or 3 months, checking it every day, and I still have a lot to do. To be fair, it slows down A LOT, but it's still fun.


I have a flat glass electric stovetop, not induction. They seem to be becoming more common from what I've seen.


Oxygen not Included is sorta kinda like this. It's a 2D, from the side colony management game where you have to survive on an asteroid. You have to manage oxygen production, get rid of carbon dioxide and other unbreathable gasses, find water, grow food, keep your base from getting too hot (or too cold) because thermodynamics is a thing in this game.

Mining is just "go mine here" but your colonists can only hold a certain amount of materials so retrieving mined materials can take a while, especially if you're mining far away from your base. Plus you have to worry about the materials being hot, or being affected by germs. You can technically mine out the entire asteroid, but I've never gotten close to that because something always goes wrong and everyone dies. There's only a limited amount of resources after all.


Oh my god, imagine the improvement in traffic for those who do have to leave their house for work.


The effect is compounding too because those people will spend less time driving and idling their engines!


There's some pretty smart people in the field, don't you think if they are forced to come up with a solution that they will?


Thank you for making me laugh, that's a great mental image.
