I've always thought this method was hilarious, but it's a very specific type of work that requires it. There's not much automation to be done since it's different every time. I also had a previous job where some days you'd have to count product in boxes all day long, and hand write the numbers (this was about 3 years ago).

What outdated things at your work do you find amusing?

I found this thought funny. A few years ago everyone was all learn to code so you don't lose your job! Now there wont be any programming jobs in 10 years. But we will need a lot of manual labor still.

I could have titled this as just waste created by living daily, but wanted to focus it down a little more. I feel kind of like im the crazy one that sees this insane waste when eating at restaurants, wrappers, cups, drink carriers going right in the trash, billions per day. Its insanity if you think about it.

I've at least been never using cup lids or straws and never taking drink carriers when theyre offered (what a massive waste of cardboard!). Then most of the waste is at least paper from the bag and wrapper. Still not great. And yes, I know the solution would be "cook at home!" But that also wastes a lot of freshwater from dish washing, and sometimes it's just nice to eat somewhere else.

I wonder if this is just something you notice as you get older. Then again older peiple probably waste the most, but I'm just guessing.

After using VLC for over 15 years, I decided to explore a little more. I had no clue that it comes with thousands of internet radio stations on Icecast, as well as the ability to add all your podcasts into it (just need to find the link to your podcasts hosting service). I no longer use any streaming services (to me, they are criminal, plus they're full of ads and generally getting worse and more expensive every day)

Just wanted to let anyone know who may not know how much VLC can do!

I feel super dumb asking this. But what actually is and how does github (or similar sites) work? Are they all just source files one needs to manually compile? I am always confused when I look at a github page. I know some have directions but they still go way over my head sometimes. Im not a total noob but some of this stuff seems like you need to be in programming and have an IDE just to run a program.

I know it's a joke " oh haha you're 30, everything hurts now cuz you're so old!" But really, is something wrong with me or are backs just this stupid? Not overweight. Decently active although I don't exersize every single day. No genetic issues, doctor always says im in perfect health. But my lower back will randomly act up, sometimes it gets so bad that I about black out from the pain. Thats pretty rare though, usually it's just an ache all day when I move or try to put my socks on. Its not sciatica, as I never feel numbness or pain in my legs. Mild weakness maybe if it hurts really bad.

I feel like any doctor is just going to say welp, you're old it happens, or tell me I need 3.5 million dollar spinal surgery.
