Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Can I become a writer when this is the quality of my writing? Please be honest.
3·1 month agoGet on Facebook and find the authors supporting authors group. Post it there and see the feedback. Make sure you make it very apparent you did not use Ai.
On the other hand, put this in ChatGPT or something and ask it for its “opinion”

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What wishes you made were granted in a "monkey's paw curls" way but in a positive direction?
141·1 month agoI wished that I could have every single video game ever made
With emulation it is possible to do that.
But you fall out of the video game hobby and you don’t find enjoyment out of playing.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Based on what you think the company you work for spends on salaries, what percentage does that company actually spend on creating value - that is, on the people who actually do the work?
0·1 month agoI used to work for a large corporation. I was on a team of 10 people. My whole job was to run three queries and copy and paste it to excel and send it off on tuesdays. I would do it on Tuesday mornings and it took me about an hour.
My teammates had similar tasks. They were in charge of one report or handout and they would automate so much it would take them about an hour to do.
One day our manager tells us we are getting a new team member because our work load is going to increase substantially.
The new person got their own report. And they messaged me once, “I am done with my report what do I do next?”
I responded, “wait until next week and do the same report”
I was at the company for ten years.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Anyone know yet how to get some of the Trumps 1.7 billion slush fund? I mean I hate fucking Trump. But I could come up with a good yarn how Biden came after me? Plus Lemmy needs new servers.
0·1 month agoA company I worked for was “awarded” several million dollars from Trump. The CEO was awarded a bonus for the same amount they got for the government.
To answer your question, if you have a million dollars, donate it to Trump. Then you can see your million dollar “investment” reap tenfold.

PC Master Race@lemmy.world•Lego Batman Legacy Of The Dark Knight Leaked And Pirated 3 Days Before Release And 7 Hours Before Early AccessEnglish
5·1 month agoI saw Giant Bomb’s quick look and I lost interest.
I thought it was going to be more of Arkham Asylum but instead it is another Lego game.
Glad they included all these Batman references from years past.

Technology@lemmy.world•Ryan Cohen Says He ‘Isn’t Passionate’ About GameStop As He Makes Desperate Bid For eBayEnglish
72·2 months agoGameStop has a certain percentage of eBay stock. Essentially they “own” a relative large percentage of eBay already. They also have a substantial amount of third party funding.
How much is too much? My wife and I smoke a joint at night 7 days a week for the past year. Is that too much?
No I have never heard him talk. He just puts questions in chat and other attendees answer them.
Our 1:1 is via chat.
Yes I’m fully remote. Never met anybody face to face
Video games, 3D printing, and movies/television.
Modern video games are nothing more than a linear hand holding experience with hours of pre-rendered cut scenes. If I am interested in a game, I watch a streamer play it long enough for me to be bored then I read the plot on Wikipedia.
I used to have multiple 3d printers going. But after one broke down, I didn’t have the motivation to fix it.
Movies and television shows are the same slop with tired tropes. I watched Con Air with my son the other day and he was amazed with the difference between the acting and presentation in the 1990s compared to today.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What’s the easiest way to get certified to practice law in the U.S.?
0·2 months agoBecome an LLC.
LLC’s have more rights than citizens.
You start an LLC, name it something lawyer sounding like the last names of your friends but never call it a law firm. Call it civil representation.
Then when you get a customer not a client you can send letters on their behalf.
Most people freak out when they get an official looking letter with a “law name” on it. I’m not talking about the minority of people on here, but the majority of the population.
As long as you disclose your LLC does not practice law and you are simply “representing them” in a very general and broad sense you will be good.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What ever happened to Pizza Hut's Book It program? Where you read a book get a star and if you get five stars you get a free personal pan.
0·2 months agoThey still have it but it is not as common as it once was. Pizza Hut has a book it nonprofit they funnel money into.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Even if we found a feasible way through physics to travel through time, wouldn't it still be impossible due to the evolution of bacteria and our immune systems?
0·2 months agoNobody thinks about that but yes it would. You are not immune to the black plague so you might get that even if you are vaccinated. Plus who knows how many viruses and diseases happened back then.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you think there's too much emphasis in popular media on working your ass off?
0·3 months agoYes. And people just eat it up. I get it. I got caught up in the “hustle and grind” of life. I tried multiple income sources and I was proudly working 80 hours/week while missing my children grow up. But a life altering event caused me to pause and reassess my life. I started working less and spending more time with my family. I worked on myself from being low tempered to be more “go with the flow”
