When you say export, is there a tool for that for, like, mass exporting your subs? Or do I have to manually search each one and sub again?

I ask because I’ve been meaning to switch to my alt, but I made a point of subbing to as many communities as possible to make Lemmy more fun to use for me, and good lord, it’s a lot to do.

I’ve seen grocery stores with digital price thingies on the shelf in front of the items before. They’ll probably switch to that it it ever became a legal issue. Some people, not me, would suggest, though I would never, that breaking those and shoplifting would be good and ethical responses to such activity. In theory. I’d never suggest that, though. All that businesses do is good, and a hundred quantbrillion lifted out of poverty and blah blah blah flag waving gif

Question. I am a computer dumb. Is this scary for me? Lol.

10 years ago me and my mom worked jobs from home. I did CenturyLink (phone company) and HSN and QVC. She did dish network, directv and Eddie Bauer. It was easier then to find wfh jobs than it is now. Then it was unusual, but no stigma. Now it’s like you’re an evil clown bent on molesting the village’s sheep if you even suggest it. -_-

But an excellent band name. Imagine “chemo for the soul” by Living Drugs, feat. 4skin

I don’t have an ew response here. There’s a long history of preserving body parts. There are books in libraries bound in human skin. Y’all will sit bare assed on a leather couch but get grossed out by this? I mean, I guess I understand it, but I just don’t have that reaction.

I do want to know why they chose those three tattoos to showcase, because there had to be something better…

Are you in college, or do you have a friend who is? Often you can sign in through your college’s library for access.

IC.org is pretty good, and it allows searching with filters. Pretty easy to spot the cults.

Also, if anyone is interested in doing a land trust cooperative in East TN, lemme know. 6 acres.

It’s not being jaded. It’s a reality. The employers base interest is creating wealth for the company, the employees base interest is generating income for themselves. These two conditions are fundamentally at odds. That’s why we speak about “negotiations” when it comes to wages. We are attempting to balance the two sides. The employer wants the employee to perform the most amount of labor for the smallest possible compensation, the employee wants the largest compensation for the least amount of labor.

I’m not suggesting all employers are bad people, or that there aren’t people who are employers who are friends with their employees. I am saying the employer, in their role as employer, is not a friend to the employee. Their interests do not align, and if they did, either you have a masochistic boot licking employee, or an employer who is going to fail and take their business down with them.

My mom ran a successful business for 25 years, was good friends with her employees outside of work, but in her role as the employer occasionally had to do things that went against her nature, by the simple fact that her business needed to survive more than her friendship did.

I ran a successful business for 5 years before illness took it from, and likewise, in my role as employer, I could not make the decisions I wished I could have. Had I known about worker’s cooperatives at the time, I likely would have transitioned it to that to save the company when we were no longer able to do the work in the same way. C’est la vie.

This isn’t about being jaded, it’s about understanding how our economic system works at it’s core. A small, but significantly powerful group on one side, a large but mostly powerless group on the other. Each has their own interest, and the balancing act is figuring out how to get the most out of the other.

Employers are not your friends. Employers are people who want you to do as much as possible for as little as possible. Regardless of one’s political views, employers are not friends. It is an uneasy alliance at best and an outright war at the best of times. Wanna be friends? Help me unionize this workplace, bro.

My brother had a 3 year gap, and when he applied for his current job (civil service job, even) and they asked about the gap, his response was “I signed an NDA about that, I can tell you in 2052,” and just refused to speak further on it. Complete bullshit, but even a job with the US federal government just let it go.

There’s an excellent video by technology connections in which he mentions this. Turns out, sort of not true. That said, in the modern day, that 100% is gonna be the case, IMHO. Porn flows like wine anymore, and people aren’t going to want to adopt some weird pornless tech.

I’m not a power user or anything, and don’t understand most of the things in computing. I’m a basic user with mostly basic needs. But the only thing that ever gets me back on windows is when my college requires a program specific to a class. Linux is just freaking better, even at the very basic, mostly doing browser based shit level.

Yes. But smaller, and with a screen where the keyboard should be, and no bezel between the screens. Media consumption device, not something for any real productivity. Very lightweight, good for watching youtube or hulu, but clamshell so it protects the screen.

Same! I had the LG v60 dual screen case, and loved it. Thats the farthest I’m willing to go, though. It was unwieldy, and almost impossible to use a popsocket with, no way to use a wallet case, et cetera. It’s not worth that price tag for less options just for the occasional use of a bigger screen.

Now, foldable tablet? That’s something I’d be down for (in theory. I am poor.). Closes up small enough for a pocket, folds out when you use it. Only screen on one side, so it can tossed in a bag without worrying about it, because it’s closed up and the screen is protected.

No, licking boots can have a fun kink angle. Supporting the cops is just being a shit person.

In some places, you pay for utilities before using them, and they shut you fuck off right in the middle of the month if you’ve used it up. :/

All hail the Tiny pizza!
