With those hands?
I’ll see myself out
2 years later, somewhere in their sales and marketing departments:
“Hey, you know what would make us even more money?”
“No, but do tell”
“Advertising”
“Genius - how is it nobody has ever thought of this before?”
Roku somehow thinking that the Ferengi rules of acquisition was a how-to guide book.
Jeff Geerling discusses having done the same, in one of his videos.
I have a friend who is graphic designer for a small shop. Customers drop off work at the front desk, and depending on how much effort it works out to be, it can land on his desk.
Some customers insist on explaining to “the designer directly”. They get told/warned that it’s more expensive (hourly) and that the clock starts as soon as he walks up to the counter. And some customers agree to these terms.
It’s always entertaining to hear his stories.

Strong Cable Support Infrastructure?

quaddo@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Marjorie Taylor Greene wants women to stop tempting Christian men5·1 year agoWild. It was only just yesterday that I’d learned of the phrase “caused me to stumble” within a religious context, courtesy of the “in my super-fundamentalist church back in the nineties” guy on IG.

quaddo@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•‘Let’s find out’: shipwreck mysteriously appears on Newfoundland coastEnglish5·1 year agoNow that’s a pretty cool bit of news :)
quaddo@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Proposed CA bill would electronically restrict cars from going 10mph over speed limit51·1 year agoAs a somewhat recent arrival to NZ, I found it interesting — starting with our rental car — that the speed limit is displayed on your dashboard. It changes colour as soon as you go 1 km over the limit.
All very cool. The most notable issue with this is there are sections of roads where this doesn’t work at all.
That said, there is a LOT of traffic calming here.
There’s still the occasional assclown that goes way over the limit. Unsurprisingly, that usually happens on long, straight roads without traffic calming.

Will add that to my mental corkboard, thanks.
quaddo@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•How a Judge in India Prevented Americans From Seeing a Blockbuster ReportEnglish7·1 year agoBut Americans aren’t allowed to read the story anymore — by order of a court in India.
While the article starts out with what seems to be a decidedly “this is targeting Americans” bent, further reading clarifies that it’s a global thing, not specific to Americans at all.
quaddo@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Eisenkot: Key Israeli war leader challenges Netanyahu over Gaza strategyEnglish21·1 year ago🤔
Eisen meaning iron.
And Kot meaning vomit.
The phrase “zum kotzen” got burned into my memory decades ago.
quaddo@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Trump unleashes Truth Social attacks against E Jean Carroll while in court2·1 year agoCompletely random, and nothing to do with anything:
Mice, which stands for “money”, “ideology”, “coercion/compromise” and “ego”.
Oh no!
Anyway, how’s your weekend been going?
