Across three different organizations, I’ve watched five members of IT fired for their arrogance. If you’re interested in doing this, simply hire an attorney, bring the smart person into the room with the arrogant idiot, and make it clear that someone in that room is not going to work for the organization in two weeks, and then explain the situation.

I don’t understand this. What happens when you do that?

+1 for Bitwarden, wife and I use it and it works well. It lets you securely share passwords for free.

Has anyone tried Ozempic? Like…at least right now it sounds like a miracle.

That looks both fun and painful AF. Kicks are no joke.

As a member of the current media boogeyman group who is facing legal bans from receiving life-saving care: Can we please get our shit together? I get it, it doesn’t feel good to vote for a candidate who does bad things. You know what’s worse? De facto electing someone who does that same shit to a worse degree, who also does literally everything else wrong. I voted Stein in 2016 and have regretted it ever since. It didn’t make anything better. I don’t even feel like I “stuck it to the Dems”. We all just suffered as a result. Please don’t make my mistake.

FYI the bottom link is broken (but it’s easy enough to get there, lol)

Yeah, I feel like it’s heavily skewed towards the beginning of life, but tbf I feel like the cool things you do later in life are harder to quantify? Could add things like:

• I’m trying to think of how to quantify a “Have 0 debt” option but like, post mortgage or something.
• Establish a friend group
• Hang out with at least one member of that friend group for 5 / 10 / 15 years
• Go to an interesting location as part of your job (conventions count)
• See a historical human-made artifact in person
• See a legitimate dinosaur bone in person (not cast)
• Visit your country’s capital
• Create a piece of art and enter it into something that has it be viewed by people outside your family / friends

Do you have any recommendations for a beginners guide?

The convenient thing about the LGBTQ+ community though is that we can pop up anywhere, at any time. The perpetual boogieman.

They can’t exactly answer that honestly.

I don’t think you understand what rural means. There were people who had to travel 1 hr+ by car to get to the local grocery store where I came from. An ebike isn’t appropriate for places where you may need to travel 60+ miles, and/or in snow or bad conditions that might persist for weeks, and/or in ungodly hot / humid conditions that also persist for weeks. All three of those are true for decent swaths of the year in my area.

“Pick me!”

For real, I think I’ve gone through the “It sucks that never came out” -> “They’re still working on that?!” -> “It sucks that never came out” cycle like three times. The first blog post is in 2018 and it states then that it’s been in dev for several years. It’s never going to see the light of day, or if it does, it’s going to be a conceptually outdated, buggy mess that’s barely duct taped together. It’s just so incredibly hard to dev for that long across multiple engines without it turning into a disaster.

I’d love to be proven wrong, though…

Ubuntu was always the answer I gave, but it feels like they’ve fallen out of favor with the whole snap debacle.

Yeah…this is going to be a super unpopular opinion, but there needs to be a designated distro for new users who aren’t sure what to go with. If someone asks “What distro should I-” the rest doesn’t matter. We just agree on one distro and that’s it. Once they have a reason to look for another distro, they’ll have the knowledge to find it themselves.

You have to make the first step easy.

C: Am I a joke to you?

It feels disingenuous at best to lump in people making $60k/year with Jeff Bezos and other billionaires. Just twelve billionaires account for 2,100,000 homes worth of emissions, and that’s only the raw output of their travel and other direct expenses: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/nov/20/twelve-billionaires-climate-emissions-jeff-bezos-bill-gates-elon-musk-carbon-divide

Yes, we can all do our bit to help out, but workers pointing fingers at other workers will only ever benefit the ruling class.
