A live action Lorax movie, directed by Tim Burton and starring Johnny Depp as the onceler would be my dream movie

“I’m glad you brought protection”

Person Centered Language

It helps humanize them

Man if only there was an option like --sudoloop to ensure that doesn’t happen

Dayta - it comes from the Latin word Datum which is pronounced day tum. At least that’s what my middle school science teacher would tell us

I’ve only used two nectar collectors, both from the Nectar Collector brand. One analog, one electronic. Definitely preferred the analog for the reasons you’re stating - the E rig just didn’t get hot enough to take those big dabs.

Cleaning doesn’t need to be a tedious task by any means, keep a bin of Q tips and ISO nearby to where you smoke and hit the tip with a bit after every hit. Quick ISO swab and then dry with the other end, the rest of the ISO gets evaporated when you heat it. Prefer titanium tips, as they’re less likely to crack from being heated while damp. YMMV but this is how I’ve kept my dab rigs and nectar collectors clean for a while now

Not just resumes either. I went through 2 interviews for a company, and then was suddenly ghosted after they’d collected the data they needed. They reached out to me, offering a position and when I told them how much I wanted for it (I didn’t realize I’d told them less than they had it listed for, since I hadn’t seen their job openings before being reached out to) they ghosted me and updated their job posting to match my desired pay

For emphasis, read it as if it was all capitalized normally but that one I is bolded

Because doing nothing about it is any better? Lol

I have much the same issue, when I can I like to wear jackets that have inside pockets to deal with it. Barring that, back pocket > front pocket > extra pockets IME

No.

Yes.

Everyone has the time, not everyone has the priorities (this isn’t a dig, it’s a reference to some inspirational speech I heard in high school). 50 hour work week and 56 hours of sleep leaves 62 hours in the week. Probably another 12 hours split across 7 days for cooking, eating, etc. which leaves 50 hours to recover, study, exercise, or do whatever she pleases.

She values using those 50 hours to recover from the 50 working hours more than learning a new concept. That’s not invalid or wrong in any way, everyone has their priorities and values and they’re allowed to do whatever they want with their time.

That being said, everyone has the time they just might not have the mental space. But increasing your human capital by learning something new is often a great way of reducing stress. Learn to handle something in a new way, learn a little about financial theory, learn something that helps you at work. The best weapon you have against the injustice of daily life is knowledge. If you have the mental space, find the time to learn something

ETA: Coming from the perspective of a full time student who spends 6+ hours daily searching for a job because I’ve been down on my luck since quitting a year ago. I grew up poor and watched my mom work full time, put herself through school, raise three kids, and continues to fight every day for the right to live; I know the struggle you’re going through right now. Spend your time better than I did.

I would agree, except for the continue studying. Everyone has at least 20 minutes of downtime that they could put towards learning a new concept every day

I do not expect the Fediverse…

I hate to agree with this but I do. I would love if more people said fuck you to data harvesting and started denying access to everything as best they could; and decentralizing social media would go a long way in that. Unfortunately, too many people have too much faith in corporations

Anecdotally, the majority of people I’ve seen who self host are doing it to replace subscription services. This ranges anywhere from piracy to libre office. So, they’re not gonna pay you a subscription for something they can do themselves.

The audience is niche because you’re aiming at a subset of a subset of a subset of people. You’re looking to sell this to someone who:

1. Doesn’t want to pay for a service they can do by themself (self-hosters)
2. Has the knowledge and desire to handle networking (no amount of preconfiguration will make them not have to set up which ports their services need while allowing freedom)
3. But doesn’t have the time/energy to do it themself
4. Can afford to shell out a rather large amount of money ($150 is a lot to many people, and as the other person brought up; you’ll likely end up selling it for much more than this after manufacturing costs)
5. For a piece of equipment that is eclipsed by a 3 year old desktop computer from eBay

The amount of people who self host anything is already abysmally low - just look at the social media user count. There are more than twice as many people on r/pathofexile (which is already pretty niche) as on r/selfhosted. Obviously reddit isn’t the end-all be-all of representation in that way, but you can definitely get an idea of trends from it.

This screenshot made me long for NMM. Spending hours curating mods to create the perfect look and feel, then spending less than half the time playing the game lol

Fun fact: the “brain is fully developed at 25” thing that everyone refers to is just completely wrong. The study that is being is referenced when it got brought up wasn’t even looking for that. They were studying maturity in people from kindergarten to age 25 and found that people mature at vastly different rates: with some children being more developed than some adults. The 25 number was an arbitrary stopping point because they didn’t want to study people for their whole lives.

Now that being said, kids shouldn’t smoke or drink. But not because of a misunderstood 20 year old study

I have an Onn TV that I quite enjoy. I intend to eventually connect it to an isolated network where it won’t have real Internet access, but for now I just use it as a 4k dumb tv

GPU doesn’t work after being reconfigured

On GNOME extensions crash

“I made modifications to my system and broke it”

Syncing files between devices is always a struggle

Syncthing?

Never know what will break when updating

Read your updates before you do them?

Bluetooth and scaling are not issues I’ve ever run in to, but I can’t say they’re not common.

Basically, this whole post reads as “I messed with things that I didn’t properly understand and I’m blaming my computer for doing what I told it instead of what I wanted”

By creating regulations that apply to the creation of those things? Level 1 AVs exist and as such regulations exist for AVs. These regulations apply to level 4 AVs despite being mostly theoretical.

The other commenter in this thread basically already answered this as well by talking about how manufacturers need to prove the safety of it before it can be green it.
