Plenty of love for muscle chicks to go around IRL!

Didn't work for Klinger

Edit: did work for the enby in the movie Stonewall, though, IIRC

What has helped you improve your ability to get along well with others in the work place or professional settings? in c/autism@lemmy.world

If you go to a country where you don't speak the language a smile and the local word for 'hello' is a good way to defuse tension over them encountering a foreigner ... same goes with people who think differently to you :-)

Protip - check out trousers made for rock climbing. Good pockets, full range of motion, tough material that lasts, pretty colours :-)

Yup, my ex is literally a professional singer. Take her to kareoke and it's like strangling a cat. On purpose, because she doesn't want to be a dick.

Meanwhile I mumble while keeping the mic as far from me as possible, because I suck at singing in an entirely organic manner

Agreed!

(Not saying this just because I'm horny right now, but because I will also be horny later ...)

Mom gets embarrassed by Dad's awesomeness in c/relationshipmemes@lemmyis.fun
[–] SharkWeek@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 3 days ago

More likely embarrassed due to ingrained racist feelings that might not even be recognised ... my last girlfriend wasn't keen on us being together around her extended family, in case they thought that either I was taking advantage or that she was a gold digger simply because I'm white

Chinese tourists can now pay in yuan via Alipay in Vietnam in c/world@lemmy.world
[–] SharkWeek@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 4 days ago

Makes sense!

I'm also a foreigner in Vietnam, but not in an area where there's tourists (it's not unusual for me to be the first white person someone has met) ... I guess things work differently in places that have more foreigners around

A Chinese character for non-binary gender is being added to Unicode, ≈ X也 - CNN (www.cnn.com)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/37638260

Non-binary people have been using the existing character"也"with a thing that looks like a Latin X on the side, so they're going with that.

Legit studies regarding the negatives of AI in business? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

Does anyone have links to proper research or statistics regarding the negative impacts or poor quality of AI in business processes?

My sister in law, who is an accountant and doesn't understand computing outside of Excel (in other words, not at all), has been put in charge of a project to offload as much work onto AI as possible.

She's been sent on a course regarding how to set up an AI instance, and has no idea where to go with it ... I'm not sure if she's being set up for failure, or if the upper management are incompetent, or if they're going through the motions to keep stock prices up. Since this is a large multinational, it could be all three at the same time.

I'd like to help her manage expectations of those above, so that she doesn't get burned when it all inevitably fails, hence asking for links to studies :-)

Drive my commute for fun & profit! (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

About a year ago I picked up a copy of Dirt 4 for very little money and put it on the side to play later (it appears that rally games drop in price when they no longer feature the latest cars).

One of the environments it features is Tarragona in Spain, which is where I live. Having actually started playing it I can say that the modeling and course design for my home stages is absolutely spot on - I live in a small village halfway up a small mountain which is often used for the WRC, and the stages really do feel like my daily commute.

The car handling, progression, team management stuff, etc, is good - with the variable difficulty settings it's very accessible to casuals like me :-)

At about 3/4 completion I'd give it top marks, and I'm enjoying it a lot more than the more simulation oriented rally games.

Hi, Iḿ not in the US, but earlier this year had the opportunity to try shooting firearms of various sorts for the first time, and it's something I'd like expand my knowledge about ... when I go on youtube the videos I've seen have been American with a right-wing lean which range from comedic, through surreal, and into creepy.

It would be nice to see content from people who are vaguely normal.

(Edit: especially if it has to do with revolvers!)
