  • For me the "shoot her" scene at the start was the scariest. How quickly it flips from "hehe gotcha, you thought it was a dinosaur but it was just a crate" to utter human terror as they try to save someone from an unseen monster

  • When musk hired ex NASA or VW employees 👍

    When other companies hire ex twitter / Tesla staff 😡😤😡

  • why are they blue!!!

    Literally chose not to buy a powerbank because the power button flashed blue as bright as possible. my PC has blue LED's on the front for status indicators, and i put some black nail polish over them to block out about 80% of the light.

  • Don't feel too bad. Whatever the occasion it is acceptable to wear trousers. We can wear the same thing 50 times to 50 events and society won't care

    Proper fitting ones are also very comfortable. While the range of men's clothing at supermarkets and bigger clothes stores is generally a lot less than women's clothes, specialised men's clothes shops and tailoring is much more common for men than women.

    It just takes men a much longer time tomdoscover clothes that fit. Late 20's when I discovered it, and early 30's I have found what fits, and dye it to suit what colour I want!

  • Yes that is the famous Rainbow Sketch which leaked. It was very similar to that, but with alien characters from an advert Argos (UK catalogue store) was launching for Christmas 2012

  • This dude is the only good thing about coffee.

  • There is an unreleased and un-leaked version of the 2012 ARGOS Christmas advert, not dissimilar to the infamous "rainbow for adults" sketch which leaked many years ago.

    To watch it we had all our phones taken away from us, and there was a pretty thorough "OK you all saw it, funny hey, time to destroy the CD"

  • I miss the range of content on Reddit, and the weirdness. But I don't miss the people. Never believed friends how toxic reddit was until i joined Lemmy and realise dhow lovely the people here are.

  • Fusion 360: we have unnecessarily decided to force you to use the cloud for this product

    Also Fusion 360: *Noooo all you free users are using up too much of our server space, you will have to pay.

    Here is an idea, let me run it on my PC and it won't use any of your servers

  • Counter shower thought, I'm not even close to dating Lemmy. I spent 2 years getting to know Reddit, it will take me as long, if not longer due to Lemmy not being as mature as resdit was.

    Right now, lemmy is the stranger at the train station asking why I am crying. It might turn into something, or I may just lean into Facebook / Instagram / YouTube / discord more.

  • He really cared. He was then transferred to another store (even further from home) to try and improve their performance, and I heard about half the staff quit when he went. There was another manager from another branch who would visit a lot to cover for him, and everyone expected she would be the replacement.... and she wasn't. She was also really good. An unexpectedly good management team that actually cared and helped. The real "its super busy, I will take my suit jacket off and join you on the shop floor" kinda team.

  • "Darkstar one" on Xbox 360. It was the only game that actually ran at 60FPS. when i eventually went to sell it (as i got it on PC) neither of the 2 game stores (GAME and CEX) would buy it off me as it didn't register on their system.

    Now one that people probably know about, especially as it has a lot of HD re-releases, but when Okami came out, basically no-one knew it. A real shame, as it was a gem of a game.

  • A series of fortunate events. 3 year course at university doing Product design. then about a year in and out of retail jobs. then i saw in a news paper a listing for a job which required a designer. At the time the store i was working at was very happy with my work, but the boss was an amazing person. They drove me to the first interview, as it was very close to their house.

    3 Interviews later they called me saying I got the job, and it has been that way ever since. I feel lucky that my current career is a similar path to where i wanted to go. It was either an IT role or a design role, and my teachers at my school heavily encouraged me to take the design route.

  • Appreciate that these updates use the yyyy-mm-dd format :D

  • I always print slow with it. The tiny heated bed uses so little power, maybe only 5p per hour to run, Vs my rating which was costing me 20-30p per hour :|
