  • Oh, you're a mod. I assume if I reported your post for obviously, blatantly being off-topic based on the rules as written, I'd get banned?

  • A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.

    WHERE MEME?

    Why do so many fellow Americans not want to hear anything about the Iran war or oil crisis?

  • Congrats, now you know the situation in Russia regarding the Ukraine war.People feel powerless, are swamped by trying to make a living (which is by design), and at the same time feel like this is all wrong and someone ought to do something about it, which leads to a sense of guilt and shame.So they shield themselves from it and wait for it to pass.

  • It would be impossible to find a picture that both shows daily life, and also has proof in the picture that it's actually from Labrador. But this is true for any sparsely populated place. And especially in cold climates, daily life just doesn't happen outside a lot anyway.

  • If you created a simulation that resulted in the creation of countless intelligent beings would it be unethical to end the simulation?

  • Why are there two different creation stories in the Bible? If Cain and Abel were the first sons of Adam and Eve, how could Cain come upon a city while he was wandering the earth? Why are there two conflicting versions of the Ten Commandments? Etc. Etc.

  • Fun fact: The guy who invented leaded gasoline later went on to invent fridges that use CFCs as coolant (Thomas Midgley Jr). Probably the person who single-handedly had the worst impact on the environment in all of history.

  • My cat uses her cat bed, but only if I put a worn T-Shirt in it. It has to smell like me.Otherwise she'll snuggle up in bed with me instead.(I haven't put a worn T-Shirt in her cat bed in years. )

  • Fedora Project Leader Suggests Linux Distros Could Adopt Apple's Age Verification API

  • I'm not talking about the age verification, I'm talking about hanging people who support it. Y'all need to get a sense of perspective.

  • Fuck age verification, but the fact that this comment gets even a single upvote seriously worries me.

  • I've done IT consulting work for a company that had switched to an open source software stack and were forced to go back to MS because they literally couldn't fill necessary positions and it was threatening to kill the business.And this was at a time where there was a surplus of applicants for every position. They just all noped out when they were told they'd have to learn to use different software.

    I've worked for dozens of companies as MSP and now I'm leading the in-house IT of a company with 300 employees. The picture is the same everywhere: Most office workers have simply memorized the exact steps needed for their role. Take away the tools they're used to and their productivity drops to zero.

  • The issue is that a lot of processes need to be understood by people who have no IT background. Your basic office drones need to be able to use it, enter data, and make changes. Every applicant in an office job will be relatively proficient in Excel.If you move your process to another solution, the majority of your employees will have to be re-trained.

  • Inside the Systemd Age Verification Debate: Developer Responds to Criticism

  • Yeah, really easy, just all employees suddenly work for a foreign organisation which pays salary in foreign currency, while they're still living and expected to pay income tax in the US. Transfers of money and tech are now cross-border and subject to Trump's Truthed tariffs. All servers have to be transferred to different hosts, all SPF records need to be changed, all contact info updated.Nothing difficult at all, it's all really easy.

    But hey, they avoided putting an empty data field in their OS, and with their 1% market share they sure sent a strong signal that'll get lawmakers who have never even heard of Linux to reconsider.

  • The donations for Debian, Arch and a dozen others are collected and distributed by a non-profit that sits in the US, which also represents them legally. If they're sued into oblivion, the distros have no more money for hosting their repos.
