Hybrid work has been great for this. I can step away from my desk for 5 minutes to toss in laundry or vacuum etc. Dust or unload the dishwasher while on a call. I no longer have to spend half of my Saturday cleaning because my house is just always clean.
There is an incredibly graphic up-close video available. I strongly recommend that no one watches it. I consider myself very desensitized and it still made me sick.
I will provide a description:
Charlie is struck in the neck slightly to the side and his body immediately goes stiff. Blood gushes strongly from his neck - a liter at least. He slumps. It very much appears that he was immediately killed.
I'm confused by the fuck/fight portion. Is it normal to want to fuck or fight every person who maintains eye contact? Have I been unknowingly threatening/coming into all of my work colleagues?
100%. I'm also trialing Copilot at a medium-sized corpo job and it saves me roughly 12-20 hours of work per week.
I use it often in PowerShell scripting. It occasionally hallucinates and makes up commands, so sometimes it takes a bit of back and forth to get it to do what I want, but it's still a hundred times easier than writing from scratch or tweaking+combining similar scripts I find online.
Probably my favorite part is being able to ask it "Where did I leave off with John on x issue last week?" And it will remind me that I'm supposed to do x and John is supposed to do y. Or even, "I helped a user with this specific issue six months ago. How did I fix it?" and it pulls the exact email and Teams chats outlining what we did, and I can click the link to open those messages and ensure it didn't misinterperate. Way easier than digging by hand.
Finally, I absolutely hate making PowerPoints so I've been having it make all of my rough drafts from transcription notes in meetings. Super nice time saver.
Something I'm concerned about and playing with this week is pronoun usage in transcripts. I'm working with our LGBTQ ERG to ensure that we can make Copilot use preferred pronouns for everyone. If it can't, we'll need to pull back certain features.
It's far from perfect but it genuinely makes my job a lot easier and I'd hate to lose it. I think it will only get better from here.
That's a concerning situation. You might want to reach out to parents or friends to get you some help with cleaning. From the picture it looks concerningly dirty and messy - empty bottles, things on the floor, etc.
Agreed, I love the pseudo-retrofuturism that they include to make it feel like the world of the original Alien films was valid. It really sits nicely as a Canon part of the Alien universe. I'm excited to see where it goes.
That's impossible, the term didn't exist until 2010 when Jennifer Allen created it because she wanted a "scientific sounding" term to describe the sensation.
Oof. The headband on mine isn't stock - it came with a bumpy headband that wore down over time. I swapped to this leather headband made from a scrap of recycled leather a few years ago and it has held up perfectly.

Why are you responding to a year and a half old comment? Lol
Oh no. I worked so hard to be able to maintain eye contact in conversations (autistic) and now I'm questioning it.
A simulation could be hacked, and that's really fun to think about

"Transgenders" is not a word. Please use "transgender people" or something similar.
I like it. Is the enemy a vampire or something like that?

Why are you living like this?
Why

Aw ok, much love ❤️

Oh. :( That wasn't very friendly.
For sure, I've replaced the cable on this set a few times due to getting tangled in chair wheels or my kitten chewing on the cord
I got these pads for under $10 on Amazon. You just rotate the pads counter-clockwise and they pop off, no tools needed.

Huh?
