Not in my experience. Idk how it works in the US but as a consultant I worked in public companies around the world and dude, those are the worst. They will need 2/3 people to do the job of 1 because they don’t work like private companies and don’t usually fire people as fast if they don’t have an acceptable performance. A lot of people doing nothing and 1/2 guys keeping everything running. Mind you, with public money
I’m not lgbt but when you witness first hand what people talk about when they say transgender you undertand everything.
My cousing was born in 1990, nobody talked about it and being gay was stil a big no no, specially being the son of one of 5 brothers. I have 18 cousings and only me and 1 other are women, the rest are all men. All of us were raised together in the same way, so much so that I’m very much not girly and only tried makeup for the first time at 18.
All that to say that my cousing was NOT influenciate in any way but he was born pretty much a girl, a LOT more girly than me. He woud sing all the little mairmaids songs, dance like he was Belle, LOVED dolls and being “mommy” etc. Mind you he was 2, 3, 5 yo. His parents put him in 10 different psychiatrists. Nothing worked (obviously). he tried hiding or even toning down but there was no way, the boy was born a princess.
Every time I hear about gender x bio sex I remeber him He never had a “choice”, that’s what he was born as.
I wish he had had the chance to be himself when he was young (he never changed his gender but he finally “came out” to his dad about 5 years ago)
at least we are talking about it. And tbf memes are the News of the young. It’s easyer to communicate things to young people with memes lol. I use them all the time with my neaphew to talk about his depression and it works wonders
I know it sounds posh but it really isn’t, I had a real french chef cook a Duck Confit with asparagus and one other thing that makes this the best ever: yellow cassava (Arracacia) puree. This shit, arracacia, is a root (kind of like cassava or potato) impossible to find. I think you can only get it in south america but it’s soooooo good. You know when you mix 2 things and it’s just magic? That’s arracacia and aspargus. I ate the same dish 3 days in a row and almost cry when I had to come back. Still dream with it
Also, amazon don’t have the same library as spotify. The other day I was searching for a very obscure foreign language old song and spotify was the only one that had ir.
So I got my first ever Swiss Army Knife 2 months ago. It’s a Victorinox Huntsman with 14 tools (the one with the saw). I have not used it extensively yet, but I wipe it clean every time I use it....
Yeah my dad has one of those, super heavy and you wont use half of the tools but he has it for about 30 years and never needed much maintanance apart from the “cleaning after use” rule and the eventual WD40
How do people call you? They may have a “nickname” or a spanish name right? You don’t have ro have a spanish name just a more “western” one. You don’t have to translate you surname either just “americanize”. For exemple Grzegorz Filipowski can be Greg, or Gregor Filipo.
I always think about this when I hear people talk about their ancestors or criticize other people’s ancestors. They were other people. Ppl get “proud” of their ancestors siting in a fucking chair eating doritos. Go do something yourself
Don’t be a dick. Just not being a dick everyday is a great improvement and it will make no only yours but everyones lifes better. In todays society this can be a big chalenge so don’t be a dick tl anyone, not even to a dick
I had to make a presentation for work on a silly topic and decided to test gpt’s powers. That saved me sooo much time! It would take me 3 says to read and research the topic and gpt gave me the whole presenttion in 30 secs. It’s an amazing tool to help you save time with silly stuff but it only worked because i already knew the subject, because I had to present it anyway
It’s not a slice problem, I have a cheap chinese printer that never really worked very well. I think the hot end is broken or something. Do you know when you print something too cold and the layers don’t stick? That’s what always happens. I printed those in 235⁰ and they still came out fragile with the layers breaking so I just glued the legs with some epox and now it’s good. Its just a toy so it doesn’t need to last long, but it is very frustrating for sure
Yes! sometimes is better and sometimes worst! I tried learning how to change the hot end but I’m still really new and have no idea so I though about buying a more popular one, like ender, and then trying to fix this one
Yes I believe the second option is more likely because i have been increasing the temp to get the same results for a while now. It used to print perfect at 190, then I had to up it to 200, 210 and now it will only print something useful at 230 and it has been failing at the begginig, the first layers are now bad and then the rest is good. It wont last much longer.
I never even new lemmy existed until the reddixit and I never went back because I think lemmy is a lot less toxic. Also worth pointing out that this post alone has more than 800 likes When I firsf came around top posts had 100 likes tops
the best advice I got in life regarding social interactions (specially at work) is from the penguins of madagascar. Wave and smile. If you can’t wave, nod. Always agree and say “oh my” “really” “that’s great/horrible”. People love me at the office and that’s all I do
I’m noticing an influx of Reddit users today, maybe revolving around their weird bug they had today. I know this question pops up semi regularly, but for those just getting their foot in the door maybe we can help show them what else is out here on the Fediverse to help them get started....
Even if both were ilegal the democratic political system is still corruptible. Let’s say you want to make a law that’s going to help a lot of people, you still need others from the opposing party to vote for it, (even if there are more than 2 parties) so they also need you to vote in something for them. Even if there is no money in the middle, it is still a corrupt system. Is there a better one today? I don’t think so. But still crap
