I had no idea! So you use the phone in tether mode and get it hooked up on a router ethernet port and it works like that? Did you have to change any settings on your router to make it work?

You don’t need an ethernet adapter to use your phone as a cabled hotspot for a computer. Just a regular usb cabe works just fine, I’ve done it before when our home internet was down.

The idea itself is fine, but in practice it wouldn’t work. The kind of people you are trying to screen out in the process would just study do give the responses of a passing assessment, probably with the help of heavily paid mental health professionals.

Psicology is hard to test and prove, most of the things you are looking to test would not be visible in bloodwork or brainscans.

I didn’t actually mean the fist option, it was meant as a joke. I clarified it in another comment, maybe I should just edit the original one.

As far as I understood the problem here is OP’s boss, so I don’t think that would be a feasible solution in this situation

Just be be clear, I wasn’t advising OP to do the first idea. It was more of a joke. It has potential to be traced back and get him into trouble.

All my teeth falling off (I wore braces as a teen, I don’t know if it made a difference). Also since a cousin died in a car crash I dream about car accidents, always in the driver seat. In the first year after the accident I even woke up trying to press the breaks sometimes.

The most chaotic good thing to do would be to use the known security issues to hack into your boss’ computer in the most scarry looking but harmless way. That would possibly scare them into upgrading.

With that said, you should create a paper trail on how you warned your boss, and either wash your hands of the issue or kick it up the chain, depending on how much you care.

EDIT: since it seems some people didn’t get it, I meant the first option as a joke. My actual advice is the second paragraph

It did not, it’s just that sarcasm/irony is common on the internet, and tone is hard to convey just from written text. I was not offended at all, but thanks for being a nice person on the internet and apologizing anyways!

Me and my dad are the same, on the left and right problem, never knew anyone else that had that problem, or that it had a name! I thought we were just weirdos :p

Not sure if you’re joking, but blinking is fine. It’s blinking one at a time that’s the problem

I can’t wink. Other people make it seem so easy, the best I can do is a scrunched up face with a sliver of one eye open enough to see

I agree with the basic maintenance thing being a chore, but I understand where OP is coming from. So if one person out of the pair decides with previous warning that they want to plant a bunch of stuff then it’s their responsability to take care of them.

In my situation for example, I live with my partner in an apartment, and the vases are his to maintain and take care of. We’ve talked about where we would live next and my parter wants a yard and I don’t. So I’ve forewarned him that if we have a yard in a future house it belongs to him, and any decisions to move to a house with a yard come with that agreement. This is all very different situation to living in a house with a yard already, or not having the choice when moving for some reason.

IIRC, the Sims sometimes check their phones in the Sims 4. Sometimes even while walking somewhere.

I feel the same, but one big thing I miss from reddit are the more niche hobby communities. Back when I spent time on reddit I’d interact more with those kinds of communities because they were smaller and I actually had some good information to give to other people with the same interest. In lemmy getting those kinds of communities is practically impossible, there is not enough people here to make more niche stuff more than a few individuals, and thats not enough to keep a community alive.

I bought a refurbished galaxy watch 4 and I love it. I use it mostly for reminders and timers and it works really well for me. I put it in the charger while I shower and that basically the only time I’m not wearing it. I understand it’s a pretty unusual use case, I don’t really care about the fitness aspect of it, I just want a voice assistant on my wrist.

Is you’re open to not white noise options, I always recommend Nothing much happens podcast. I’ve been a big fan since 2019, I recommend it to anyone to at least try a couple of times

In my parents’ house similar to what you said, knifes and forks adjacent and spoons to one side (I don’t remember the exact order). When I moved in with my now husband he said it made more sense to him to have spoons in the middle and I didn’t care that much about it, so we have it like that. I have to say though, I do see an advantage to having the fork, spoon, knife order: when grabbing several pairs (fork and knife) it’s easy to just take each with one with different hands and count them out. And it’s easier once you have knives on the right hand and forks on the left to set a big table with one on each side of the plate.

Nerdstalgic, CinemaStix, CGY, Corridor Crew, captainmidnight are some of my favorites. Some of these focus on TV series too, up to you if you’re into that

I very rarely do. But I use it to get a general idea of the price of items that come up later and I haven’t tracked that early.
