It’s always good to be valued, congrats!

Yes, something like that would work. The stock OS would still be on the TV but as long as you don’t connect the TV to WiFi it should be fine.

Congrats! That sounds like actually meaningful work.

That’s awesome news, congrats!

Wow, 2 interviews in 11 months is rough. Last year it took me 5 months, I’d say around 20-30 interviews, and 6 years of experience as a dev. Congrats on the job!

I might as well double down while I’m here, “we don’t take kindly” was too aggressive wording.

I meant something more neutral like “I think y’all are weird”.

That way, the y’all is the problematic part. That was my point.

As for “y’all” or “you all”, I don’t see how it could possibly be interpreted as offensive to any gender.

I think “we don’t take kindly to y’all” to a trans person would likely be offensive. Beyond that though, you’re probably okay.

Maybe it’s what the rest of the world thinks because it’s true?

Wow, you don’t have a single person agreeing with you, that’s really impressive.

It’s mostly thanks to the Wright brothers too, damn, that’s impressive beyond words.

Honestly, everything. Any TV show, movie, documentary, book, or hell even porn that could be deemed as valuable or important in any way as I could see any one of these things becoming outlawed with such a regime. Hell, Canada’s new prime minister (99% chance to win in the next election apparently) is going to try for putting porn behind digital IDs (despite claiming to be against digital IDs before if I remember correctly) which is just going to be a privacy nightmare unfortunately, I’m already having to stockpile porn because of this ridiculous bullshit. We are truly in a doomed timeline.

Canada will do the same once Pierre takes over. I’m already having to stockpile porn because of the fact he has a 99% chance to win and he’s going to implement digital ID bullshit (even though Pierre claimed to be against digital IDs before If I remember correctly) which will end up being a privacy nightmare. I hope to fuck it’s not going to be linked to social insurance numbers because the only way to get a new social insurance number is if there is actively fraud happening with your social insurance number, and then you have to fight to prove that you’re you. We are so fucked.

I mean there’s a 99% chance Pierre wins.

I’m already stockpiling my porn so he can’t take it away from me. Will be horrifying to see whatever digital ID spying system he comes up with. So much for being anti-overreach and pro-freedom.

Also, there were plenty of people who were never going to vote for a woman, no matter what.

I don’t think anyone is, US healthcare is some of the best in the world and he can afford the best doctors. They can easily keep him alive another 4 years.

have you heard that the internet was supposed to bring people together and ends pointless debates

I don’t know why anyone would ever think that.

People are always going to have differing opinions.

Sounds like you’re doing well then. I do the same with contributing to FOSS (and I maintain a couple FOSS projects) and I teach younger devs at work, and have a blog (technically two), so I’m in the same boat.

Not being able to pass anything on - my knowledge and experience

I know this may sound like satire but you can write a blog and share your knowledge and experiences. It may seem weird at first, but it’s an actual option, and people could organically come across your blog, especially if you use the right keywords that they’re looking for.

Well yeah, that’s why some people stay in toxic jobs unfortunately.

Part of being an adult is never getting enough sleep and almost always being tired.
