Makes sense. In this analogy as well as irl the platform is missing, I think. Youtube / Google wants to make money as well as news media so both let it happen willingly or push it even further. I think journalists should be better than this. Before the Internet no one (or at least no one beyond a very local level) did care about the maniac yapping some random nonsense at the town square. Now those maniacs are news all around the globe. I’m not even from NA but there’s so many news (and I might be biased because I often scroll through c/all) about US politics. Not that it would be much better here. People should really know when not to adapt something from the US.

How people like this are in politics and the media is reporting about them is beyond me.

Straight to the loony bin.

Sadly it’s not even that far off the truth. Looking at Europe where more and more countries lean to the right. And the best idea democratic parties have is to copy right wing talking points in order to win back voters… which obviously doesn’t work.

PayPal is already shitty enough at it is, we don’t need another crappy payment app.

Hello, fellow simpleton.

I made a gradual switch from windows to Arch starting in may. At first I had some issues but since nvidia 555.x drivers launched everything just works. Gsync/VRR? No issues. HDR? No issues. Three monitors, some rotated, with different refresh rates one of them ultra wide? No issues at all. It’s amazing.

Made the full switch about 1,5 months back and deleted all windows partitions two weeks ago. Works for gaming, work and casual browsing without flaw and I’m glad I made the switch.

CEOs and other higher-ups being completely out of touch is nothing new though.

Ofc I can only go by this short description but I’d do it. In my former job I ended up with depression and it took me 1,5 years for recover. I didn’t want to do 1st / 2nd lvl support any more but found a place in another city that I liked and it had the opportunity to opt-out of the support work or keep it to a minimum, once you’re skilled enough to do other work.

Now work doesn’t get less but instead more, colleagues are - on a social level - find and I even made some friends, but they’re so hard to work with. I just came back from a week off because I was sick and after 10 minutes reading my emails and teams chat I’d rather turn the computer back off and go back to bed.

I don’t hat the tech. Hell, I even tinker with it in my free time, made the switch from windows to Linux even though I’m a gamer. I got pihole and home assistant running and I’m planning on a home server / NAS for Jellyfin and other stuff. I like this things… but people man… they drive me literally crazy.

But since I can’t do anything else and I need the money to pay rent and buy food I can’t just start another, badly payed, apprenticeship. I’m feeling stuck in a job that I despise because of the people in and around it. So if you have the change go get away from it and use the computer stuff as a nice hobby, do it.

The hint that we have way to few guillotines at hand.

So I noticed two seams… can you load the wiener both ways? That’d be some kind of celebration.

Had me in the first half.

Fair enough. The wording wasn’t correct.

Struggled with the game because it’s so much to read. Came back after “Final Cut” update with lots of VO. Great, totally underrated game. 9/10

That’s pretty much it. It just assumes what the next word should be.

Same with Idiocracy. Welp.

That took a wild turn. Damn.

Maybe you just know a lot of cute people and their family.

Hey, I got the same by just pressing the middle suggestion. Are you using SwiftKey?
