Ratman
  • So what does he want to be called? Just a rat? But - there are actual rats, which are already called rats. Unless those don't exist in this universe, "ratman" seems like a pretty reasonable term. He has both rat and humanoid features.

  • You already kinda said it—this is a problem with the relationship with your boss, not with the book.

    With my boss, I can just say, "Honestly, this one was a miss for me. I appreciate the recommendation, and I wanted to give it a chance, but I didn't find much actionable substance in it. What did you get out of it?"

    If you don't feel like you can do that, have a conversation with him about how he likes to receive feedback. If the answer is "he doesn't," it might be time to go boss shopping. But I doubt that will be the case.

  • why are companies trying so hard to have employees back in the office?
  • I wonder this same thing about my company. The only rational theory I've heard - which is completely unconfirmed - is that they aren't willing to sell the building because it's still needed for the IT team and a few other purposes, but need a certain occupancy level to not be penalized on their taxes.

  • If you could plant a single thought in the minds of everyone on Earth simultaneously, what thought would you choose to share?
  • "MothBookkeeper is the dictator of the world, and I completely trust his decisions."

    Nevermind the logistics of that; power lives where people believe it does.

    Then I could make multiple beneficial changes, such as:

    • Heavily taxing the rich
    • Enacting drastic climate policy
    • Banning paper stickers that rip as you try to take them off
    • Sending Mitch McConnell on a rocket into the sun
  • Jiv me a break
  • Right, because Gs are never pronounced with a "J" sound, and acronyms are never pronounced differently than their full terms. Sound logic there; well done. Never mind any of these:

    NASA- National Aeronautics Space Uhdministration

    NATO- North Ayy-tlantic Treaty Organization

    LASER- Light Ayy-mplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation

    SCUBA- Self Contained Oonderwater Breathing Uhpparatus

    FOMO- Fear ohhf missing ohht

    ASAP- Ayys soon ayys possible

    POC- People ohhf solor

    PIN- Personal id-entification number

    BOGO- Buy ohhn get ohhn

    POTUS- President ohhf the Uhhnited States

    YOLO- You only live ohhnce

    AWOL- Ayy-bsent without awfficial leave

    ICE- Eyemmigration and Sustoms Enforcement

    DARE- Drug Ayybuse Resistance Education

    My #1 most wanted feature: Automatically embed content from links.

    In RIF, any time someone posted a YouTube video or a GIF from various GIF hosting sites, that was displayed directly in the feed, rather than needing to open the link. For articles, it would also choose an image from the article and embed that in the feed, so you could quickly get a sense of what the article was about as you were scrolling.

    This is what I'm missing the most from RIF, more so than any button or setting, because it IS the core experience of browsing content in the app. It would open up Lemmy to a whole world of dynamic content, rather than just images and text posts.

    I'm guessing this is also one of the more time consuming features to implement, and to that I say—devs, I don't have the skills to help you with this, but I will pay you for it. Right now, it's a barrier to fully enjoying Lemmy as much as Reddit, and I want to stick it to Reddit that badly. DM me if you're interested.

    PS: All this is built on the assumption that this is a client-side problem. If it's not, I'll welcome a correction.

    Putting an artificial plant near a window makes it seem more realistic.

    Despite it not needing sun.
