  • 174868880 seconds/60 = 2914481.33333333 minutes/60 = 48574.6888888889 hours/24 = 2023.94537037037 days/365 = 5.54505580923389 years

    Using this as the basis

    1y = 31,536,000 seconds

    1m = 2,629,746 seconds

    1w = 604,800 seconds

    1d = 86,400 seconds

    1h = 3,600 seconds

    So 5 years, 6 months, 2 weeks, 2 days, 7 hours, 46 minutes, and 44 seconds.


  • I’ve experienced stuff like this.

    I think the last time I tried being above and beyond type of host, had a bunch of people coming over for a big weekend. I thought I do something really special and make steaks. But this wasn’t just going to be like any grilled steak no no no. These steaks were going to be prepped the night before and then sous vide. But before I even started this plan I reached out to everyone and said what I was planning to do and ask if there were any issues with it, any requests, etc. I describe to everyone and great detail what I was going to make. Not one person said anything other than the “sounds good”.

    If you’re unfamiliar with sous vide the short of it is it takes a long time to cook. Generally it’s measured in hours I’d say. As such I need to cook all of the steaks at the same temperature for the same amount of time I don’t have the setup at home to do individual orders.

    One of the individuals once they got here, asked if I could make them a hamburger instead. Like I was a fucking restaurant.

    And another one slathered it with ketchup without even trying it without. Claimed it was overcooked and dry. 🤨

    Thankfully everyone else thoroughly enjoyed their perfect steaks.

    Other times I would buy up a bunch of stuff so we could have breakfast. Like a proper breakfast, not just a handful of carbs in calling it good. But people would wake up late despite knowing when breakfast was going to be on. And then say they weren’t hungry. And not 30 minutes out the door, talking about picking up something or swinging by somewhere to quick grab a bite.





  • Yep. Having to have requirements that doesn’t flow with people very well and requiring constant updates, people WILL find shortcuts. In the office, I’ve seen sheets of paper with the password written down, I’ve seen sticky notes, I’ve seen people put them in notepad/word so they could just copy paste.

    This is made worse, because you have to go out of your way for a password manager, which means you need to know what that is. And you need a good one because there has been (and I’m going to generalize here) problems with some password managers in the past. And for work, they have to allow a password manager for that to even be an option. Which you then end up with this security theater.

    I think that was more of a security feature. I would strongly believe that all of the eternal dragons can speak/understand all languages. Making it so only a Namekian can make the wish as layer of security given how powerful the dragon balls are. Like the Ancients in Stargate started putting DNA scanners into things to stop other species (like the wraith) from using their tech.
