I hate when leftists get into some bragging and shaming about suffering nonsense ... I had one once try and get on my case for literally just flying with my family to go have Christmas on a beach because they couldn't afford to fly and didn't have family. Like ... I'm sorry? But me making memories with the family I have isn't about you?

Hey people with privilege,
It's okay to lean on your privilege from time to time.

Acknowledge your privilege, don't use it to harm others, but it's okay. Take a (non crazy extravagant) vacation. Buy some reasonably priced luxuries. Take advantage of the support your friends, family, class, career, whatever else offers you.

Again, why is this being treated as an either-or?

I see high speed rail as some combination of:

It sounds cool so some people will choose to ride it simply because of the cool factor

By having the infrastructure to support high speed says something about the passenger rail network itself, and is going to imply the high speed trains have right of way on the tracks

It expands the distance that it becomes as fast or faster to take the train over taking a plane. Trains are city center--> city center and no security, they are oftentimes faster than a plane for medium distance trips. By having high speed trains, it means there's even more distance before it becomes faster to take a plane.

@beecycling @geekysteven Why not both?

Can I pet your dog?

Mild take:

If it's an open world game, don't put unique items as something you can permanently miss if you don't find them in a storyline mission...

My spicy take of the day:

Bring.
Back.
Administrative Assistants.

For fucks sake, have people in the office who are literally professionals in drafting and editing memos, scheduling meetings, figuring out travel, coordination with other folks, hell, making a good cup of coffee. It's IMPORTANT WORK!

Okay, I could give them a battle of wills. Can I give enough spicy takes to break their will before they break me.

Just to confirm with all y'all - are there any mod managers that actually work on Linux? Steam Deck particularly? If so I haven't been able to find any yet, and I'm tired of trying to fuck around with managing mods manually.

Every time I go to someone's house who actually... Like ... Decorates and has matching furniture and shit. Then I go back to my place and see my random hodge podge of old, free, and cheap Ikea shit...

Back in my day, every single new TV show was streamed right into your house, 100% free.

If you want as close to an A/B test in misogyny in industry as you can get, talk to trans women. Legit the same exact person before and after, and many many of us watch our careers stall out. I've seen my raises and bonuses halt entirely for the last 5 years while team members get raises and bonuses. I had a great grand boss directly interfering with my work and bashing my communication styles when I asked many of my colleagues and they said they saw nothing different in how I communicated than a great many of my men colleagues.

Now I daily consider how much longer I'll make it in tech.
@baldur

Okay, now I'm even more angry. What the fuck is this shit?

> The unit of measurement varies by region: a United States liquid tablespoon is approximately 14.8 mL, exactly 1⁄2 US fluid ounce; about 0.52 imperial fluid ounce. A British tablespoon is approximately 14.2 mL, exactly 1⁄2 imperial fluid ounce; about 0.48 US fluid ounce.[2]

> An international metric tablespoon is exactly 15 mL, about 0.53 imperial fluid ounce or 0.51 US fluid ounce.[3] An Australian metric tablespoon is 20 mL, about 0.7 imperial fluid ounce or 0.68 US fluid ounce.

Okay Brits, explain yourself.

I got a British cookbook, and why the hell are there measurements in grams, milliliters, but ALSO tablespoons and teaspoons? For fucks sake. Be consistent...

5 ml and 15 ml are right there.

Fediverse is not even a difficult concept to explain to normies.

It's basically what if thousands of twitters, but also, you can follow and talk to anyone from any other Twitter.

@TheBreadmonkey

@p4pa @pathunstrom They're fascists when they act like fascists. I refuse to make some formal criteria, because fascists are the worst at bad faith arguing "but I didn't ACTUALLY break any rules, I was just asking questions and posing hypotheticals!"

Besides. Even if I block someone who isn't ACTUALLY a fascist, they're still someone being an ass, and I don't need that noise in my life.

@saraislet feed it MBA textbooks, Wall Street Journal, and LinkedIn garbage, and get back your quarterly goals.

@saraislet Then can we skip the greedy meat sacks and just have Agentic Management? It'd probably not do all that much worse, and cost 100,000,000x less

@saraislet on top of vibe coding, we've got vibe management
