This is exactly what I use it for. I have to write a lot of justifications for stuff like taking training, buying equipment, going on business travel, etc. - text that will never be seriously read by anyone and is just a check-the-box exercise. The quality and content of the writing is unimportant as long as it contains a few buzz-phrases.

As a man with moobs, I finally feel represented.

I was really hoping I'd find this here.

Went to a foreign country for vacation and bought a whole-ass bale of hay. Most of the dream was me trying to smuggle it home through customs.

What did you DO, Ray?

One of my favorite themes is social commentary in science fiction. The Expanse is a great example: humanity colonizes the solar system, but instead of achieving some kind of utopia, it just becomes a continuation of the same class warfare that has always existed on earth. Even when the alien tech opens up essentially unlimited free real estate, some corporation still gets into a violent conflict with the belters over a lithium mine.

My intrusive thoughts go crazy when I see this.

Often times, one or two large companies employ a significant fraction of the community. In my (rural) hometown we had a university and an industrial battery factory. Almost half of all the families in town had at least one member employed by either the university or the factory.

Bone spurs will do that to you.

So it doesn't slide away. Safety first.

Well, straight girls like dick, and liking dick is gay, so yeah.

The movie caused him to experience feelings he doesn't quite understand.

Came here to say this. If I could get past crippling procrastination, I wouldn't need any other superpowers.

Have you ever noticed, when you hear a word for the first time, you will hear that word again within twenty-four hours?

Until they region-lock your dryer.

It's a solution in search of a problem. May as well start selling home appliance NFTs while they're at it.

I use it for erosion simulations in piping systems. I work in kind of a niche field, and there really aren't any commercial tools that do what I need. With a fair bit of effort, OpenFOAM can be customized to do pretty much anything. It should be able to do a steady flow simulation over a vehicle right out of the box though. The hard part will be generating a mesh. I'd recommend doing that with specialized meshing software.

Sometimes it blows my mind.

I second this. I'm not involved in game development in any way and I still enjoyed it.
