all-knight-party, in Should i take my coworker up on his job offer?

He'll only tell you what the job duties are AFTER you're hired and YOU have to pay to be hired? For $10/hr? Even if that wasn't a straight up scam I wouldn't invest time, money, and effort into signing up and doing onboarding if I didn't know what the hell I was doing.

Hard to say exactly what's going on there with that little info, though.

sparky678348,

Exactly we need much more to go on

saigot, (edited ) in Is it just me or is it lemmy shit?

You may experience a lot fewer problems if you switch instances, lemmy.ml is notoriously overloaded.

Not exactly an open question - if anything, this is more of a support question related to hiding what you don’t want to see. If you’d like further support, please check the sidebar for a list of suggestions. Removing under rule #3.

Kierunkowy74, in How familiar were you with the Fediverse before coming here?
@Kierunkowy74@kbin.social avatar

Heard about Diaspora around 2010s. Knew Mastodon probably before 2022 (when there were only two Polish instances, 101010.pl and a left-wing one, remade later into more mainstream pol.social), @Vivaldi brought me here as they integrated Mastodon with their web browser. However, @74 is actually my first fedi account. Learnt about /kbin and made an account there in 2023, when it consisted only of 2 Polish servers, karab.in (flagship) and another one. My account here, on kbin.social exists since 8 of May 2023.

hanamin, in What's some really unpopular opinion you have?

Entering the domain of "What is your most controversial opinion?" is similar to investigating non-conventional viewpoints in Environmental Law Dissertation Topics. Dissertation topics in environmental law explore uncharted legal ground, just as controversial viewpoints question conventional wisdom. Are you prepared to offer your distinct perspectives on contentious beliefs as well as environmental law discussions? Let's celebrate differences in thought and encourage deep conversations! https://thedissertationhelp.co.uk/environmental-law-dissertation-topics/

Treczoks, in What's something you've done that you're proud of?

The main product line of our company is basically all architectured and programmed by me.

Thisfox, in Dear Lemmy, **why** Star Trek??

As others have said, Federation.

I expect it was a random first arrival bias.

Lath, in What's something you've done that you're proud of?

Sorry, I only seem to remember my failures.

Saigonauticon, in What is a term to describe expressing one's opinions with links and memes instead of words?

You could verb meme. They memed. She is memeing. He will meme.

Another descriptive candidate could perhaps be ‘echoing’. It evokes a rapid repetition without processing. Other uses work nicely too – e.g. “the notes of the student echo the notes of the teacher, not having passed through the minds of either”. Or “they simply echoed the meme they had received”.

Saigonauticon, in What's something you've done that you're proud of?

I immigrated to Vietnam. It was… difficult, but I eventually made it work. I am happily married and run a small company.

fubarx, in What's something you've done that you're proud of?

So far, helped raise two solid kids, who look like their heads are screwed on right. Most of the credit goes to my wife, though.

space_of_eights, in What's something you've done that you're proud of?

I insulated my own house despite not being particularly skilled (to say the least) and absolutely loathing DIY.

A bit more context. I live in a house that was built in the early 70s. When I bought it back in 2009, there was hardly any insulation and due to the way it was built it was draughty and cold. A few years ago, I had the walls insulated, which made the major rooms a bit warmer. However, the house was still cold, part of the problem being the crawlspace and concrete floor. Last year, I got all the debris out of my crawlspace and put a thick plastic film on the sandy floor. That had instant effects: not only did the humidity drop (and some occasional musty smells), but we also needed to use less natural gas to heat the house. This year, I finished that project by insulating the bottom of the concrete floor with thick rock wool. That job took me several weeks. First, i had to glue wooden slats to the bottom of the floor and then I had to apply the rock wool.

My DIY skills are poor. I did this alone. It was a hell of a job which I do not intend to do a second time. However, the rewards, both in terms of comfort and savings are great.

Afghaniscran,

Rock wool, ignoring it’s insulating properties, I’m forced to believe was created by the devil himself.

DaCrazyJamez, in why arent guitars made with 3.5mm jacks rather than quarter inch jacket

I cant imagin how many 3.5 cables I’d have ruined onstage…they are simplynot stromg enough.

dlpkl, in What would be a good name for a federated Wikipedia?
