Is this where Home Depot gets their 2x4’s ?

Some of their better ones :)

Yeah we’d be lucky to have ones as straight as these! I wind up just going to Rona, even if they’re weird there (Canada)

Heh I’ll take things named Rona that didn’t change their name in 2020 for 500 Alex.

I wonder if Home Depot’s issue is one of individual throughput. When you have a skid coming into a jobsite, you end up with the occasional wonky board here and there but no one is picking them out. That pile inside contains the rejects from full skids since who knows how long. Because they sell so much, They have a larger pile of misshapen boards.

I bet you that’s what it is, just the filtered board detritus after contractors get their pick

This is spectacular. Thank you!

Yooooo! It’s beautiful!!! 😍

IWantToFuckSpez , in Formula 1 Pit Stop 1990 vs 2023

Crazy that the pit crew were just wearing shorts and tees and not even a helmet. They act like collisions and fuel spills have never happened before in the pit lane.

Anything moving faster than them in the pit lane gets vaporized by friction with the air

confusedwiseman , in First Class amenities on Emirates Airlines

So without miles and status, this starts around what, $10,000?

Damizel ,

Pretty much yeah

eran_morad ,

Some cunt I work with booked himself a 20K first class flight on the (nonprofit) company dime.

Unaware7013 ,

How did that get through the accounting department? Any org I've worked for spells out exactly how much they'll cover/reimburse for travel expenses, and it's not nearly that high.

eran_morad ,

It’s just your standard, mundane corruption. Par for the course. That same cunt buys himself personal shit on the company dime, I’ve been told I am no longer to approve those purchases (fucking finally). He has to give us personal checks for that shit nowadays. There’s another cunt who does literally nothing and gets paid $320K/year, been that way for 10 years or so. Another guy “retired” back in 2014 and still gets paid > $120K/year. He’s on the books for 0.2 FTE and basically shows up once in a great while for a meeting or whatever the fuck. It’s all about status and elitism. And the fat fucks at the top not wanting to change the status quo. Why would they? They’re not the ones working for a living. And this is the reason that I do as little work as possible.

Waldowal OP ,

Had something similar at a public company I used to work for. When any C-level exec “retired”, an announcement would go out explaining they would “continue to graciously serve as a consultant for the company” - which always ended up being: We keep paying them exorbitant amounts to not work.

Meanwhile, I can’t get a $1k / year raise for a person on my team because “business is tight”.

eran_morad ,

Same as it ever was.

Azzu , in "Blood falls" in Antarctica. This water contains ferrous iron, which, combining with atmospheric air, oxidizes and forms rust. It gives the waterfall that blood-red colour

I’d like to see non-ferrous iron? lol

Hey, if i’m going to copy it from reddit, I’m a take 'da WHOLE MONTY

But then I put more info and links in the description, so i could have fixed it.

I shall submit myself to the wheel of shame.

Azzu ,

You can leave it for the memes of course, but titles are editable on Lemmy if you didn’t know :)

linearchaos OP ,
@linearchaos@lemmy.world avatar

adding insult to unjury, it was aparently posted there like 4 times in three years, all the others had less AI looking titles

redhydride , in The Crooked Forest

Fascinating! Thank you

classic , in Most amazing photo of Venus

How representative is this to what it would like to the human eye?

NegativeInf ,

Well, this is the dark side as seen in infrared. If you were to stand at the same point in space and look at Venus the same way, you’d be dead.

But seriously, your view would just be generally darkness. But with some heat vision goggles you could see it?

classic ,

Ah, missed the part about it being the dark side. Just saw the pretty image

squid_slime , in Drone footage of Sinuiju City North Korea

This is interesting thanks for shearing especially the photos

LEONHART , in How You Can Spot a Suitcase A-Bomb from Mechanix Illustrated July, 1954

That cover image would fit right at home as a poster tacked up somewhere in a Fallout game.

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I thought it was something like that when I first saw it because I saw it pasted elsewhere with just the cover and no details- something fake anyway. So I researched it and found someone had scanned the article.

TheGrandNagus , (edited ) in Formula 1 Pit Stop 1990 vs 2023

I also enjoyed Merc’s double stack a while ago

And if you wanna see the exact opposite of double stacking masterclass… Look up Ferrari Monaco 2022 lmao

CptEnder ,

Cries in Leclerc fan

Chickenstalker , in First Class amenities on Emirates Airlines

No billionaire or even tensmillionaire will fly first class if they can avoid it. They still have to breathe the same air as the cattle class. True rich people fly in private jets.

@Skoobie@lemmy.film avatar

This is one of those scenarios where I assumed this was a thing but couldn’t have anticipated how vile it gets. Gods, please let open source maintain its culture and not be corrupted by profiteering capitalists.

Confused_Emus , in Most amazing photo of Venus

Don’t lie to me. I know a Palantír when I see one.

requiem , in This is Titan, Saturn's largest Moon captured by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope.

No it’s not. this is not a pipe

TheOctonaut ,

Est-ce que j’ai l’air de savoir ce qu’est un JPEG?
