This looks incredible. Would go well with my castles and blacksmith

Well I for one am glad you shared

I got bg3 acceptable to me and love it on steam deck. Maybe I have low standards though

Disagree that fun driving is over. Have you driven a tesla?

[–] dom@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

Canada, mid 30. Can, but don't. First car was manual. 2003 Malibu v6

I have an EV now and plan to stay with ev

And yet it still won't solve all the remote work issues. There is no silver bullet

Totally fair in many environments for sure.

I guess it's possible. It just seems a reach for people to think that's the /only/ reason.

Honestly. I think people would be more successful if they actually tried to understand some of the nuance and understand what things are better in person than remote. Then try to solve for those things, rather than just saying "remote is better in every way" like everyone seems to think.

Agreed with this. But that's part of the problem. It takes effort to foster those conversations and "casual working meetings" like you stated. Many managers that push for back to office just don't do that.

We are going through a transition where we need to change how we work top to bottom.

Those who are less adaptable will push for the older way of doing things because the older way is more efficient for THEM. They aren't wrong, they just don't know they would be more successful if they changes how they worked.

Maybe understanding the nuance will help get everyone what they want, rather than talking past each other.

Unless he doesn't believe zoom is intended to solve the problem of remote work.

There's a difference in scale of making a zoom call occasionally to add flexibility and having your entire business run off zoom for its day to day. Some things you'd want to solve for in the second but not the first case: Remote learning, team building events, snack distribution.

Offloading the entire office experience to remote isn't as easy as just using a video conferencing app.

I dont understand this real estate thing. Cancelling contracts or having empty space is still cheaper than everyone back in the office.

More people in the office means more maintenance, more snacks, more hvac needs, etc.
