I’m unsure if his response is more on the policing language side or more on the advisory, watch out, if you’re going to work for a government agency that is funded by politicians there’s a certain expectation for public decorum that has to be maintained so some congressman looking to score points doesn’t use you as a reason to cut funding. My guess, given he tried to help reinstate the internship, is that it was the latter.

It’s THE Homer Hickam?

I remember as a child my cousin’s siblings would sometimes call her “lizard breath” instead of Elizabeth

I wonder if it was more effective in his era, late 19th century? Leisure travel wasn’t as much of a thing then, especially to other countries/continents, and the tourism industry didn’t exist nearly as much

Oh. How’s it taste?

What if the secret ingredient in Slurm is people?

Having worked in TV news, I’ve long thought the way arrested politicians or whoever that are trying to avoid being filmed leaving a courthouse by holding a folder or coat in front of their face should instead just hold both middle fingers up right in front of their face. The image won’t be used, and if it is, it will make it very clear how they feel about the citizens.

Once a long time ago I had some problems after upgrading a computer from Windows 7 to Windows 8. I got on a chat with someone from Microsoft support and eventually started a remote session with them. The first thing he did was go into the chat app from my side and give himself 5-star ratings across the board and pasted in some feedback about being diligent and responsive. That whole part took less than 30 seconds.

At the end of the day he couldn’t resolve the issues and we ultimately downgraded back to Windows 7.

Is this also drawn by KC Green?

I haven’t seen one of these in a long time

Is it still illegal in Edmonton somehow even though it was legalized in Canada nationally?

Is that Willem Dafoe on the right?

Not specifically for restaurant menus, but more generally if you’d like to contribute to Open Street Map while out and about, depending on your area there may not be complete information for a lot of businesses. You can use an app like Go Map!! on iOS or Street Complete on Android (or many other OSM apps) to add information like business hours, website, phone number, and other useful information.

You’re right, I haven’t seen that in a while. The about page for the community has a link to the bot’s source code on GitHub, but it’s giving me a 404 error.

I don’t even know what icon is on the right

Reminds me a lot of the Heceta Head Light in Oregon, except that it’s disconnected from the shore.

Did he still throw rock against you? Was he beaten by @june@lemmy.world?

This might be the first time the red circle actually helped
