What?

It said “may not,” not “can not.” The hotel may choose not to move everyone to a new room.

Are there any movies that capture this period in time?

Thank you for posting an old meme that’s not ABOUT old memes.

I have nothing against people that want to use Threads, truly, and I would welcome them to Lemmy. That said, I do draw the line at federating with Threads. I’m here specifically because it’s not part of a big company. If anyone wants to enjoy that content, go for it! Just create an account over there.

There’s an added complication that the left lane on the roundabout is for the A610 only:

The street you’re trying to get to IS the A610, no? So yeah, take the left lane.

Not being snarky, but Google “Embrace, Extend, Extinguish” for some interesting context for what Meta might be trying to do with Threads.

70 isn’t THAT old.

Hey, it worked! Thanks!

Donations, maybe merch. That’s it. I don’t want the actual content of Lemmy to start being influenced by money. If the server is slow because of it, I’ll donate or just deal with it.

Restaurant menus should be on paper, not a QR code.

Well, the truth is, there are “stupid” questions—or at least, there are questions you could have figured out yourself. There are people that will judge you for asking them, and in a certain light, they have a point. Challenging yourself to figure things out is a valuable skill.

HOWEVER, most people don’t feel that way, and your fear of being judged is often much stronger than necessary. You should ask yourself, “would I get more valuable information from asking the question than figuring it out myself”? Be honest, but if the answer is yes, it’s a good question.

The other thing is, the consequences of asking a stupid question are almost always much less than the consequences of doing something wrong as a result. To illustrate that point, take an example from my life. I’m a manager, and I have two employees. One of them has never asked a question the entire time she’s been working with us, despite me explicitly asking her to. She’s determined to figure everything out herself, but the quality of her work is pretty poor. I have another employee who asks questions constantly. When I review his work, there are very few mistakes, because we’ve already discussed any concerns he’s had. Guess which person I’m considering promoting?

That applies just as easily to a class setting. If you take the risk of sounding stupid when you ask questions, chances are not only will your test scores be better, but your classmates will probably appreciate the questions because they have them as well.
