That’s not wefwef—that’s on lemmy.world; it’s not keeping up.

Most contracts are through contract companies, who then employs (ala W2) the workers.

I could see all tech workers that work for these companies forming a union—that could make a real, honest change in the tech workforce overall.

Bring back big Usenet!

I already learned my lesson when I signed up to the big Mastodon instance hosted on the other side of the world—found the second largest US-based server I could find, signed up there, rock solid so far.

That’s how I wound up on lemm.ee—US hosted, not the biggest one, with admins that seem to give a damn was good enough for me.

UESP is one of the best parts of Elder Scrolls games; forever may it reign

Task failed successfully

I would if I could get anyone to fill my fucking prescription

I don’t trust Google with a goddamn thing, and Microsoft couldn’t get its shit together.

She’s very very safe here in Seattle, I can tell you that.

I was working on the Jungle Cruise at Walt Disney World, and had a VIP group get on my boat with one instruction: no Brazilian guests could share the boat. Nice enough dude, built, good lookin’ dude.

As we moved down the dock to load the rest of the guests, a Brazilian tour group saw who was there and COMPLETELY LOST THEIR MINDS. Americans, including me, had no idea who it was.

All the more reason to not reuse passwords, use a password manager, and turn on 2FA.

Pre-Eternal September.

Well, they caught an instance admin in the net, so they went digging for gold and struck plutonium basically.

This has 0 to do with intra/extraversion, that’s plain ol’ anxiety

I can tell you that at least for stuff I work on, every single comment entered into those little dialogs is read by a human that actually works in a meaningful role on the product.

Comments that curse and complain with no topic in mind are useless, and easily ignored. Take two seconds and tell them exactly what is bothering you and what you’d rather see, and things might actually get better.

Anyone that gives anyone in the service industry less than a 10 on those support/delivery surveys is a cop.

I’m convinced that it’s been trained on top of the essays of middle and high school students that have gone their whole lives without proper education on vocabulary, grammar, and the like. So when asked to evaluate something written properly, it’s flagged as AI.

Garbage in, garbage out. Same as is ever was.

I won’t be sideloading anything onto my device that I can’t build myself from opensource and understand what it’s doing.

The risk is too damn high otherwise.
