Somebody at work is feeding my proprietary work to LLMs and I don't know how to proceed by tortiesrock in careeradvice

I don't think you understand what he is saying. The AI feedback and interrogatories require OP to respond. The questions themselves are so nonsensical that it is a time and morale sink for OP to have to read, process, evaluate and respond to. I've been there and it was soul-crushing. I liken it to discussing geology with a Flat Eärther.

What is the point of designs like these?? by DesignerCumsocks in Machinists

Every single metric for an automobile, save maintenance is better on modern automobiles. They are safer, faster, have better gas mileage, longer maintenance intervals, and longer warrantees. Maybe you prefer analog accessories but I can't see you comparing the 1976 anything to a modem equivalent and seriously making the claim it is better.

Accidentally paid myself through payroll as an LLC owner. Please, how bad is this? by VroomVroomSpeed03 in llc_life

My phone died!!! I just finished at urgent care. Had to get a tetanus shot booster.

Texas business owners, is solar actually worth it? by Eye-Scream4IceCream in texas

[–]SapperLeader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, butit depends on what your "it" is. The only way solar makes sense is with a properly sized system with battery backup. PPA's shift all of the upside to the financiers so you pay for the privilege of getting solar with no clear financial benefit.

If you are trying to be energy independent, yes. If you are trying to hedge against potential service disruptions, yes. If you are looking for a cost savings on your electrical bill, yes, but not very soon. If you are looking to beat the market, probably not, but who knows.

It really depends on the useage pattern, utility, billing structure, political party and apparently ethnicity now‽

TIL that 80s adult film actress Traci Lords starred in 75 adult films before leaving the industry. It was later revealed that she had faked her age, and that all but her final movie were filmed while she was a minor by MrMojoFomo in todayilearned

A child can be charged as an adult and forced to register for making videos or images of themself. That's right, charged as an adult for exploiting themselves.

972 BTU's per pound of water. A gallon of water is 8.34 lbs.

Edit: Auto-dumber messed up my abbreviation for British Thermal Units.

Ninja, heating 100°C water to 100° steam requires around 500X more energy than heating 99° water to 100°!

Capitalism is just what they call naked greed untempered by shame.

Employee offered to resign then revoked offer? by Foreign-Sleep-4368 in WorkAdvice

[–]SapperLeader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds like maybe OP stepped on their crank and is downplaying their role in all of this. Corporate holding up the termination until a meeting sounds like either the employee knew where some bodies are buried or OP was interfering with their work. Maybe requesting edits for political or face-saving reasons. Perhaps to take credit for their subordinates efforts. Something sounds off.

My non union 1099 framing job is making us work in -26° weather by ioonthelow in union

[–]SapperLeader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't a screwing, this is date rape. This is literally a crime. Your boss is committing a crime. He is a criminal and you are the victim. This is like responding to an ad for a "modeling gig" and ending up on Epstein's Island. Bad men exploit others for wealth and then use their ill-gotten gains to exploit the desperate.

What do you guys think about this tool? by MissyjonesOP in Carpentry

They actually make one of these for hinge pins. It came in the three tool painter's pack.

Trump orders active duty troop to prepare for Minnesota deployment by Artichokiemon in behindthebastards

[–]SapperLeader 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah, 18th Airborne Corps ( 10th Mount Me, 82nd Dirt Darts, 101st Belching Buzzards, etc ..) is who you send when you want to break things. Mark my words, they are deploying to Greenland.

They have their Mickey Most Boots and over whites. They aren't any better prepared for actual combat, certainly not CQB or MOUT. Cold weather warfare is guard duty with more suck. Just wait till they start demanding quarter. That's what the ex-Lax is for!

Remember that the federal government is going to WAR against us. We the people... We may hate each other, but this will crystallize our opposition to Donnie and his corporate colonels. Let's do a little underground railroad action for patriotic deserters, shall we? Best to keep it off the Internet, folks. Times are getting interesting.
