Amazed no one else has mentioned The Fifth Element. It was planned at one point I think but got cancelled.

What is up with that title

[–] kyle@lemm.ee 6 points 6 days ago

Random, but I got my first tattoo on the inside of my forearm and my wife loves it because she can see it while I drive. I got it before I even met her, but it worked out in my favor lol.

Definitely pick a spot based on the tattoo you want. Mine fit best horizontally because it's clipped from a Calvin & Hobbes panel. Like others have mentioned, if you're shy about having one, consider something easily covered vs somewhere less painful.

You make a great point, and the title of the article is misleading at best, really just plain wrong IMHO. But the title also doesn't state he isn't invested in the stock market, only that he doesn't own any individual company stock.

Personally, I think this version is the most fair way for politicians. On one hand, any investment for them gives them incentive to put market health (money) over their constituents. On the other hand, investing in a 401k or mutual fund is something everyone should do, how else will you afford retirement?

Instructions unclear, discussed sexual boundaries with my players.

Wonderful! Our monstera stopped making babies recently, but it's become gigantic, practically unmanageable.

So, I work in the call center industry, and sometimes this is true. I've spoken to hundreds of companies over the years about how they do their IVR (the thing you hear before talking to a person).

  • If the IVR is speech enabled and asks an open ended question like "how can I help you", there's likely an option to say agent/representative/supervisor

  • If you get a list of options, there's likely a hidden option to reach an agent, but what you press will vary by company (typically 9, 0, or *) and there's no guarantee you'll get there any faster. It might actually be slower, because you are likely to be put into a "catch all" group and might even be more likely to require getting transferred.

  • Random tip, but # is commonly used as a terminator when typing digits. So if you're typing your date of birth, CC info, or whatever, press # and you won't have to wait the extra few seconds for it to "decide" if you're done. I also press it if I fat finger some digits and need to start over quicker.

The system we deploy (Amazon Connect) is used by the likes of Intuit, Delta Airlines, Capital One, etc. though my company didn't deploy any of those in particular.

But my clickbait articles!

 

Never tried Prairie Fire Pie, but I freaking loved Palace Cafe, delicious food and great service.
