Lemmington Bunnie

I’m only using Chrome for work because the profile switching & syncing is so much smoother and our company is split into two primary brands - my brain handles it better with an individual browser profile for each.

We’re consolidating everything into one next year, meaning I can ditch the second browser!

I’ve tried setting up a second profile but it was just too much effort to get it working and bring everything across from both, then do the same on my laptop for travel, so I’ll just wait for now.

The creator is an awful person and likely to be a future family annihilator. He is truly terrifying.

Good ol’ Spiderface Spez.

It’s also helped me find the names of several books and films that have been rattling around in my mind, some for decades, which actually made me very happy because not remembering that sort of thing drives me a little mad.

I’m stuck on two books that it can’t work out - both absolute trash pulp fiction, one that I stopped reading because it was so terrible and the other that was so bad but I actually wouldn’t mind reading again.

Oh well, can’t have it all.

USB & me: third times the charm!

I’m not disagreeing with your point, but it’s funny; if a result is “sponsored”, my first thought is “what is wrong with it? Is it crap?”.

As someone who used to be so flat in their verbal communication that they were nicknamed Daria (my hero at the time so I wasn’t too upset), and worked really hard to change that so they could function in society, I am certain I would struggle hard with Chinese language if that’s the case.

I’ve been marking these advisor emails as spam in our ticketing software for ages, they set off all my alarm bells and raise all the red flags!

Yes, never sure why people had such an issue with the term.

Example, artificial hair is a broad term, and can span from looking like a straw broom to indistinguishable from real hair, and everything in between.

Lucy Barker from the musical Sweeney Todd.

My old manager once drew on my screen with his pen when pointing out something.

He would also leave his coffee cups on my desk including a nasty ring.

I was so glad when he left, and am even more glad to work from home where people can’t draw on my damn monitor.

I love how people always argue this point, “oh it sucks and can’t replace x”. Computer animation sucked once as well, but look at what can be done with it now.

AI sucks in its current state. It will evolve and improve, and put poor little uneducated admin people like myself completely out of work. I’m learning what I can, but I’m not very bright, and neither is my future!

There are likely so many ways to circumvent these things; it’s so good of these two Lemmings to provide further details so we know how to avoid this in the future!

Just one night of my partner disrupting my sleep with his own sleep issues, and I start to have delirious thoughts that he is a CIA torture agent.

I can’t even begin to imagine what these poor Ottawans must have been going through at the time.

My hairdresser was disassociating due to PTSD and stuck her hand into the mower blade because it was gunked up and not moving. She forgot to turn it off and sliced her hand up, and can no longer do her job.

Should we ban mowers?

My uncle in law came off a motorbike and was sliced apart by a guardrail, and died.

Should we ban motorbikes? Guardrails? Both?

Some things come with risk but bring greater reward. We need to weigh risk vs reward, and in the balance, nuclear comes out much further ahead - as long as it built and maintained to a high standard. It’s also much, much safer and less harmful than the current options like coal.

This is so amusing to me, because I had no idea who this Linus was - I was only somewhat familiar with Linus Torvald of Linux fame. I looked up last night just to check that the old Linux nerd wasn’t running around stealing water coolers and such.

Extra funny to see a comment the next morning that this Linus knows zero about Linux.

Aussie Aussie Aussie! Zone Zone Zone!

We got a Brother laser as well. Only print a few times a year, and the toner is always good to go when it does get switched on. Love my Brother!

Subtext: now that we have the market share, it’s our turn to exploit the users.

It’s sick.

Some people wear a padded bra for comfort, not looks. Ironic that you use the word “pointless”, because the padding helps with… points. So it can actually be quite practical.

Likewise, the numpad can be more about comfort, even for a little ol admin/service person. I use both sets of number keys depending on - well, I’m not sure, just whatever feels right.
