GingerPale, to asklemmy in What's a skill that's taken for granted where you live, but is often missing in people moving there from abroad?

And for people who don’t know, black ice isn’t actually black (unless is filthy with dirt). It’s ice clear enough that the black asphalt underneath shows through very clearly. This make it so you’re on ice and don’t know it because it just looks like regular road.

GingerPale, to mildlyinfuriating in Raisin companies..WHY? why these wax type bags almost impossible to open or reseal?

I feel you. These types of bags either don’t tear at all or they rip violently and unexpectedly down instead of across, so while it did, technically, open, it’s now somehow even more useless than it was before.

The tee shirts are probably rolling off the press minutes after the photo was released.

6’3”, 215 my ass. Lolololololol

GingerPale, to news in Lucy Letby will die in prison after receiving 14 whole-life sentences

Baby serial killer? Oh….she’ll die in prison all right.

GingerPale, to asklemmy in What’s one word to prove you lived trough the 90’s?

Whatever.

GingerPale, to asklemmy in What’s one word to prove you lived trough the 90’s?

AS IF!!

This would actually work.

GingerPale, (edited ) to news in Google is charging its employees $99 a night to stay at its on-campus hotel to help "transition to the hybrid workplace."

Corporations do not care about you. They care about money.

GingerPale, (edited ) to linuxmemes in There be 🐇🐰

Also, anyone who says “try this, it’s neat”:

:(){ :|:& };:

Don’t. It’ll lock up your computer. The markdown is adding code to the above. Ignore the “amp;”. It’s just an ampersand.

Also anyone who tells you run level 6 is the best one…

Don’t. It’ll set you in a boot loop.

Basically, Google whatever someone suggests to you just to verify they’re not being a dick. I would say spend a bunch of time in the command line interface (CLI). There’s nothing wrong with the GUI desktop, but the real power of Linux is in the CLI because you can do so much with it. It’ll also get you on the road to scripting, if you’d like. That unleashes the power even more by making your Linux box so cool stuff on its own. Then learn the power of cron tables (crontab) so that you can schedule your computer to do cool things on its own.

Good luck and have fun!

GingerPale, to asklemmy in Lemmy users who feel the heaviness of depression, what issue in your life weighs you down the most?

I feel this so hard. I’m in a great marriage and I have a wonderful relationship with my daughter, but I have almost no friends. I have some in passing, but no one I would feel comfortable calling if things went south. It’s an awful feeling. I reached out to a handful of people on social media to reconnect and didn’t hear back from any of them. Being a middle aged man, myself, it feels like people are very wary of someone my age having not found his “tribe” yet. Like there’s something wrong with me because I don’t have a group. It sucks.

GingerPale, to memes in I actually find this talking point so braindead that, to this day, I still have a hard time believing that people genuinely believe it.

I saw a video from Ronnie-boy who equated Fascism with the left because Fascism is government control and the left wants government control. I’ve found with the most far right, any “-ism” is a leftist idea, except for conservatism. That one’s all about freedom.
