I just started reading the dune series, after watching the movies, and I'm having a great time with it! Somehow the books do a better job of detailing the conversations between all the different characters, and setting the stage for movie 2.

Reading this thread, i think lemmy has a real problem. There sre a few comments that appear centrist or left-leaning, but the majority of comments are extremely left.

I'm not asking for neo-nazis or far right, just more centrist opinions like in this thread

I think there are some conservative opinions that are worth discussing. For one example, I've seen conservatives talk frequently about protecting children from an increasingly secular world. Comparitvely, that topic rarely comes up in normal lemmy topics.

Truth be told, I generally am progressive on this, but I sometimes wish I could discuss this with someone whom I may disagree with, so I could better understand where I would stand

This is bad for the health of lemmy though, I think. A discussion board/framework should be politically neutral, while still employing rules on hate speech based on the voice of the masses.

If you want to talk hate speech, I've seen numerous accounts on lemmy instances of people advocating for murder or other violence against "billionaires" or anyone with a significant wealth. Or same with right-wing ideals, I've seen users advocating similar broad calls for violence based on pretty poor assumptions against the entire right-wing USA block.

I relate to this style more than the other comments in this thread, this seems more typical of a large company.

You need to define clear needs out of your request: start with your end goal, the processes you need, the mechanical details of the processes you need to write, how much detail you are comfortable with, and the format in which you want it . and take all of that to the senior or director level of whatever department manages those systems. They may or may not know the exact information you need, but it should be their job to delegate and translate the request such that their reports can collate what you need in the form that you need it. And because it's the director delegating, the engineers have inherent CYA and will be a lot more comfortable giving you what you need.

Unfortunately this adds to the bureaucracy, but it really is the most effictive way of translating business needs to engineering needs. It's not a straightforward process, and accurately defining the steps that need to happen for a job to get done, takes someone with a lot of experience and training.

If you're in a startup or smaller company, then I think the other comments that prioritize asking and listing to what the engineers recommend, is the best approach.

Chiming in, Michigan has variables rates depending on time of day, and range from $0.12-$0.18 per kWh

I've never actually tasted soap, so i have no idea if i actually like the cilantro flavor or the soap flavor

And the work-life balance is atrocious.

When I started, my advisor told me to not think of myself as an employee, but as a "researcher". IE I don't get to clock out, my life revolved around learning/reseaching

I've been wanting to try warthunder but I've been turned off the the micro-transaction model. Would you still recommend?

I've played other milsims like arma, was wanting something with better air vehicle usage

Whic TCG? I sold some old pokemon cards at a shop, was surprised to learn that anime cards were very popular now

1. A4

That game made my head hurt but I so wish I could play it again for the first time. It was so fun

I've been playing a LOT of arma 3 rpg's. So fun trying to smuggle drugs across the map before the police figure out what's going on.

Next year I'll probably move over to a larger playbase game with similar gameplay loop, maybe EVE online

I just finished my thesis last semester, it's a huge milestone. Good luck on yours!

End the workaholic streak and get back to my hobbies, maybe even make new friends via hobbies

I am struggling to find a source, but the tradeoff between road and railways scales with congestion. The infrastructure needed for moving 1000 trucks per hour on a road is much more expensive than 1 truck per hour. Rails, however, scale much more easily, as the freightline is typically closely managed already.

God I wish

I think this is the best one. It's a real, enjoyable gift recommendation that doesn't sidestep the parent's concerns about their kid

I'm really glad to see peograms like this, I didn't even know that was a thing. Is there an umbrella organization that is organizing awareness for these crisis responders?
