Ah could be hardware/OS, yeah. I believe everyone at our company are on MacBooks (I’m a Linux guy myself, but orgs don’t usually like that).

My personal laptop is a Dell XPS 13 and while I like it for various reasons, it has had plenty of problems with the built-in mic and video (mostly the mic). So it very well could be that.

We have like 250, mostly remote and on Slack all the time. There’s the occasional hiccup here and there, but generally it’s pretty seamless.

I’ve personally never had an issue with Slack, mic/video included. My connection has always been solid, though. Never tried on a shit connection.

Probably.

It’s not the only reason (they’re just truly terrible people across the board), but no one in my family has talked with my grandparents on my dad’s side in many, many years because of this. Rightwing nutjobs with no grip on reality and no idea how shitty they are. I’m pretty sure they don’t even know that they are great grandparents now (technically, anyway).

It’s more of a sexual orientation… Or I guess perversion?

It’s delusional to think he was ever going to do anything but accelerate the genocide.

Pretty sure that would go a long way in Austin.

Incidentally, also terrorist-supporrinf organizations.

I was born in 1990. Fully a '90s kid.

I was born in 1990 and remember lots of stuff.

There won’t be a next time. Congratulations, shit stain. You get to pay yourself on the back for your “morals” while the country burns to the ground.

I say “morals” because fucking obviously the moral thing to do is prevent Nazi Germany 2.0 from happening. But no. You get to pretend like you’re a good person. But you’re not. You let fascists take control and countless people will die at the hand of non-voters like you. You and everyone like you are deplorable in every sense of the word and you have no right to claim moral superiority.

First of all, not all state legislatures are the same. Nebraska has a unicameral system, and despite the issues with the legislature, it’s overall a much better system than a bicameral one. A bicameral state legislature makes even less sense than a federal one. The federal government should be unicameral.

This isn’t 1789. We aren’t some loosely federated collection of colonies anymore. We are one nation, and no citizen should have greater voting power than another. The interest of a state can be effectively represented by that state’s representatives working together towards a common goal.

While that’s true, it doesn’t make it right. All representation should be proportionate.

I agree, but it should also be something people do because they care about doing the right thing and value democracy, irrespective of what social media tells them to do.

Bitch that’s called voting.

God all these TikTok trends are so fucking dumb. I guess if it sways votes to Harris that’s good, but what a sorry state of affairs we have that there are people out there that need to be drip-fed content in order to do their civic responsibility and stop fucking fascism.

You only need 1 tab to OOM if that tab is Jira. I’ve literally had tabs take up more than 10GB.

In my neighborhood, I’ve seen some houses take down their Trump signs. Dunno if it means anything, but I don’t think I had ever seen that before.

Oh I’m sure, wasn’t saying otherwise. The whole thing is a joke.

I believe it’s saying that the drive-thru was open but the restaurant interior was closed.
