My experience before blocking it was that most people there are real honest Marxists that are eager to participate in serious arguments.

They just don’t believe in empiricism, logic, or coherence. They believe in the line.

Anyway, I never managed go be blocked, I just got a series of incredibly weird arguments.

Yep. And the good new is that you can block that one too.

It’s a perfect understanding of the bullshit meaningless names.

Posted from .world…

Have the posts grad is full of bothered you recently? You know, there’s a reason why not.

“Minimum mandatory” is doing some distortion here. There are countries where the vacation days can only be reduced with extra payments.

I believe a much larger share of the world will fall into the last category if you focus on “number of vacation a person can expect to have at no cost if they want it”. The 30 days is kinda of a standard.

Their products are currently better than the competition

If you want just a GPU, no they aren’t really better.

They have some different strengths, so they may fit some use-cases better, but they aren’t out-right better.

Oh, so this is about NVidia and its CEO. Thanks.

Yeah, he has been pissing everybody for quite a long time already. People still buy the things he sells…

I’ve pretty consistently seen the 1st level of management able to understand when you worked hard, and that it is not repeatable. Those problems tend to appear only when they report up what is happening.

What is to say that often (not always), you can be honest with your manager if both of you can keep a secret.

There’s the booty call, a random “snake! snake!”, the “somebody hold me! I’ll kill this guy!”… And the more social ones have quite a lot more.

Not so fast. The idea that “if companies spend that much, they must have a reason” isn’t any good either.

Some ads obviously work, some ads obviously don’t work, and most of them aren’t in either of those categories.

I have the second one, it takes about 2 minutes to make a cup of espresso, most of the time unattended, I’ve had it for 15 years, and yeah, it took some time to learn how to use at first.

I also use Debian, not Gentoo…

I’m not sure I’d even trust a fully local open source one.

The issues about trusting hardware and software development tools all lead to problems here.

It is just the most active posts.

If there is a whoosh moment, it’s this one. But technically, no, I browse by “new”, and that’s what I subscribe to.

About You Tube, yep, it can change in a whim just by clicking on the wrong video and watching the few seconds it takes to discover it’s some crazy piece of shit. Anyway, there’s fun stuff there.

Apparently, a fan recently converting into hating (hating everybody). He posted quite a lot of craziness before filling a car with explosives and trying to blow something up.

Truer words…

Oh, well, actually not, but this is at least as true as anything you can think of.

YT basically just sends me comedy sketches and bad sci-fi shorts. Lemmy basically sends me memes about popular culture and science… And that’s it, those are the feeds that exist, right?

Oh, nice, Windows 11 will fix Teams!

The one problem with that is that I need to know I’m not being told about a meeting to take a print.

Well, my local mail service often has less lag than Teams…

It temporarily deletes my meetings just before they happen, so that I don’t have to attend them!

Of course, when I open it later, the meetings are restored, with the original date, and no trace of the deletion. So not attending them is quite hard to explain to others. But it does save me from attending!
