What's the dumbest thing you've done to fix a tech issue?

When I worked as an intern in a fancy restaurant I had my workspace in the kitchen below the radio (which was always on when we were prepping). I had braces at the time and the general opinion was, that I was functioning as an extension to the antenna. The radio was only working when I stood at one specific spot (or when I was not present at all).

How screwed are you?

Given the fact that 40k lore goes back to the present day and before that (the emperor as an immortal being exists way before the 21. Century), there's a lot of room between you basically live in the same situation as before (just with a living emperor in your timeline) and you're very much fucked (living in the 41. Millennium)

Apparently Mods are being given automated instructions to "check for violence" for any comments that contain the word "Luigi". Subreddit drama discussed

Well, maybe I was just in the wrong reddit spaces to notice. I didn't see any occasion (or article) that mentioned censorship like it's happening on Twitter. Even things that are commonly censored in social media like posts about death and suicide were not censored. I'd love to know more if this was happening outside my bubble.

I don't know how to meme with the fediverse

I understand what you're saying. Using big ol' American social media, you became dependent to algorithms, that regularly show you similar content that you might be interested in without explicitly requesting it (This is how I found the BuyFromEU sub on reddit that lead me here). The thing is: this is really unhealthy and you're letting a company or network decide what you're interested in. You have to and will get used to it, even if it means you're missing out on things in the beginning. I'm following the suggestion from others and scroll through "all" from time to time, which presented me some cool communities that I follow now. Hang in there!

I'm searching for a source, but I have read that most of his loans, especially a big part of his twitter loan is secured through Tesla. If TSLA falls far enough the banks will order payments and that will make him effectively bankrupt. No matter what his other stocks may be worth.

I agree. I rarely save memes on my phone but I needed to follow the rules. This one was sent to me months back, so this one it is. I'll bring more quality stuff next time.
