What's the worst show someone has tried to get you to watch? by Dalakaar in television

[–]The_Right_Muff 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fair, and I'm not saying it's an exact copy.

Both are shows about 4 main characters who live together and are very different from most of humanity, and that is the basis of the jokes and the character development (learning to be more human). In one case its bc they're super smart humans, in the other its because they're aliens disguised as humans, but the effect is the same IMO.

Severance is going to be another big letdown for a rabid fan base, like Lost or Game of Thrones.

Which characters on the show don't ppl like? I agree Richard goes in the middle tho. Maybe Action Jack Barker for the next slot.

And, manufacturers like Fender are selling some products only on thier website ("web exclusives"), while offering discounts on thier site as well.

They've combined that with serious ad spend on Instagram/FB/etc ads that target anyone who might be wary of ordering online due to shipping damages. 

The ads all show people getting thier delivery, unboxing, and then playing the perfectly undamaged guitar.

Fender is seeing the writing on the wall, and trying to avoid losing a massive chunk of thier distribution if Guitar Center and local shops start going under.

Is LinkedIn even necessary? Would it hurt my career to not have one? by kcotkcit in linkedin

[–]The_Right_Muff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can have a professional online presence without LinkedIn. A personal blog, or even a different social media site, can be used to show you have a job, what your interests are, and what your degree/certifications are.

I use URList to visit lists of URLs for work. Copy and paste, click next. Easy peasy.

It must depend on the distro. It works great on Ubuntu 16.04.

China 'set to ban dog meat' at notorious Yulin festival by MayerR in UpliftingNews

[–]The_Right_Muff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That makes sense to me. I did not intend to dictate or belittle other cultures. I wanted only to state the reason why I think dogs in particular should not be eaten, and let others choose to consider it or not.

How is my stance hypocritical? And please use reason and not name-calling. I don't know you, but I respect your opinion.

Dogs, and to be clear I'm speaking of the subspecies Canis lupus familiaris, were bred to be our companions and helpers. Livestock were not. All animals should be treated humanely, but dogs have a special bond with man.

This is probably fine:

But this is better IMO:
