I once handed in my two weeks notice less than a week after finally getting an overdue promotion. Was laughing my ass off internally while saying thanks for the raise, I had to wait a few more days for my 401k to fully vest, then bailed
OnlyPhones is the future they want. Walled gardens and highly addictive apps and subscriptions and micro transactions. Freedom and real compute power will be locked away in their servers. And the top of the line phones are already expensive enough that pretty much everyone that has one is on a payment plan for it
It’s the grift that keeps on grifting. How long can it keep going
Only time I’ve seen a full cyber truck was at a ski resort parking lot.
Dude was well studied in his psychological manipulation. I was browsing the files and found a research paper on memory suppression/manipulation of children aged 4-13 or so. Supremely fucked up
Which instance should I join if I just lost half a big toenail? Surely someone’s into that…
The only way I’ve ever gotten significant raises is job hopping. My last job, I finally got an overdue promotion with a solid ~10-15% raise. But it was too late, I already had a job offer in hand, and put in my 2 weeks a few days later for ~30% more
I had to wait a few days so my 401k was 100% vested before I bailed, put in my 2 weeks on the exact day it vested, internally was laughing my ass off while saying thanks for the promotion
Not that I’ve seen. There’s stopdrinking with a daily check in post, but not a ton of activity outside of that.
I literally dropped my jaw and smacked myself on my forehead, not kidding. I’ve also heard it before but never realized haha
Or immich!
I haven’t committed to doing it full time, but I’ve had a GPD Win Max 2 for a few months now. A little 10 inch laptop that actually has solid new AMD internals. Love it so far
I bet it’ll be more like a subscription for an LLM upgrade, since they’re shoving “AI” into the OS, it’ll need a bit of local processing power but then you pay to connect it to a beefier server
We should survey the linux_gaming community. That will give us a larger sample size that’s definitely representative of the broader trends
Sounds like SEE (single event effect) if it’s something fixable by software.
TID (total ionizing dose) is another flavor of radiation effect on components, but that’s a total lifetime effect where it slowly degrades. Using rad hard parts or adding extra shielding is the main fix.
SEEs are transient effects from high energy charged particles that can cause bit flips and latch ups in circuitry depending on where the particle hits and deposits it’s charge in the circuitry. Extra shielding can help prevent these as well, but they can also be mitigated in software, sometimes the fix is just error detection, or power cycling a specific section of circuitry to clear a latchup
I only see pH 1 in the cupboard, guess I’ll just have to chug 14 L of it today
No thanks. I’ve lived in 6 different US states in the past 6 years. I understand I’m an extreme edge case, but I’m a huge fan of renting apartments at this stage in my life.
Now maybe in this hypothetical society with better housing and whatnot, I wouldn’t have felt the need to hustle and grind and work my way up the corporate ladder and move around as much as I did… But for my situation, yea I like renting
Greekus Yogurtius… Yes… Very roman
But they gotta save us from eternal damnation, it’s for our own good, we don’t know any better (/s if it’s really needed)
Not the person you were responding to, but… Did I read the article stuck behind a paywall? No, no I did not
Edit: ah I see the non paywall link now
Tossup between “buy Bitcoin now” and “you are autistic”
The first one, because, obviously. The second one, because I didn’t find out until I was in my 30s. My lemmy account is older than my diagnosis.
