Fair enough, still seems silly as hell to me. Windows is perfectly functional for corporate, and even software development use as long as the team managing the image and standard settings at your workplace is competent.
Yeah, being able to customize everything to meet your preferred workflow etc with Linux is preferable.
Odd to use it as part of job hunting though, which is the context in this image.
Sure, but kind of silly for someone who would take a stand against MS to the point of refusing a job to be happy with Google.
Then again, they also expressed they’d be happy with Apple/Mac
They say while using gmail.
The fuck I am.
You’re the one that equivocated military service (and implied killing through it) to simply
[choosing] wellbeing over others’ lives
Choosing wellbeing over others’ lives is the thing almost all of us do almost fucking constantly, and explicitly what I was talking about.
Military service and murdering people is not.
Edit: Draw your line in the sand wherever you want, murder is a perfectly valid line to have and one I agree with.
Just don’t pretend that you don’t choose wellbeing over others’ lives too. If your issue is with military service and murder, stick with that.
The overwhelming majority of people do, and not even for wellbeing, purely for comfort.
Did you consider the workers at foxcon, where suicide is so prevalent they have had to make multiple changes to the building including massive fucking nets outside each window to stop jumpers, when you last bought nearly any bit of tech? Pretty much every device with cell data connectivity sources parts from them, and so do many other pieces of tech. How about all the children in rare materials mines where materials for tech are sourced?
Personally I find this argument highly hypocritical. The basic fact that you’re posting here all but guarantees you have chosen comfort, not even actual wellbeing, over others lives too.
Edit: and to be clear, so do I. I just find it darkly funny when people pretend that their personal line in the sand is a difference of whether or not they do at all rather than simply a difference in degrees of separation. It’s nearly impossible to exist in modern society without doing this sort of thing, so get over yourself.
Cubes are the norm where I work, except for the marketing department because someone high up there cared more about aesthetics than practicality.
There is the (more difficult) option of finding a dev job for an older tech conservative company. My workplace has just barely rolled out access to copilot chat. Our devs are still doing things without the slop.
Look at the more heavily regulated business sectors, they tend to be more resistant to tech fads.
Pretty sure he’s said previously that he often queues up posts in advance and just hits the submit button in batches.
Hearbeat notifications man. “Yes I am online” email once a day or so. Yeah it’s more emails to delete but it can be a lifesaver.
I’m remembering a very not fun discussion my team had about “the monitoring system not sending any alerts doesn’t inherently mean everything is ok” after an outage that was missed by our monitoring system.
You need to make sure you’re monitoring connectivity as well as specific problem states. No data is a problem state often overlooked, and it’s not always considered for every resource type in these systems out of the box.
And you probably want a heartbeat notification. Yes, it’s noise, but if you don’t see anything from monitoring you need to question if monitoring is the thing that broke. It sending out a notification every so often going “yes I am online” is useful.
Make your own comm for this if you absolutely must pour your slop out on lemmy.
My understanding is that it’s not the phone signal, but bluetooth low power mode, which is how many countries did covid exposure tracking.
So not full location triangulation, but more a hypothetical that a business or government could very easily set up bt low power beacons and identify devices that got in range like they did for covid tracking.
Frieren: Journey’s End
Definitely one of the best animes I’ve seen in years. Follows a near immortal elf retracing the steps of her previous journey to defeat the demon king, decades later.
What he said was that training humans takes a lot of water too, in defense of AI. This is a shitpost take on that.
Then the current companies buying it will just buy more. So far there isn’t significant movement in the space to try and do more with less, and the current strategy is to just keep throwing more resources at it.
I’m not sure there’s a point where production could eclipse corporate orders with the current path things appear to be on.
They’re designed for the seat to be sat on. It’s not so much the weight, but where it is, like you said. Not even the properties of the surface you’d be standing on, but that it’s the part not over anything. It’ll cause some rotation-y force the toilet isn’t designed to handle.
If you have a ruler that’s half on a table and half hanging off, it doesn’t matter if you put an empty cup or a cup full of water on the side that’s on the table, it isn’t likely to fall. Likewise, if you put an empty or full cup on the end hanging off the table, the ruler will fall.
No, that’s because the individually wrapped “singles” will congeal together quite quickly if not individually wrapped, and they were developed back when doctors would reccomend smoking.
We just haven’t decided to care enough since to stop. Also, those aren’t actually cheese and in many countries cannot be sold as such.
Hell isn’t bad enough for the people responsible for “American ‘Cheese’ Singles”.
