TexMexBazooka,

And yet they will still have, compared to the average beyond their age group, significantly higher lead content in their blood.

I’d bet significant money that the ones who are able to fill technical and intellectual roles are the ones who were lucky enough to avoid the worst of the toxic air.

There’s a reason boomers are almost universally fucking dumb.

TexMexBazooka,

Uhhh… no. Gen z has had to deal with and understand changing technology since birth. I have faith in them.

The only thing boomers have proved is they’re able to do is ruin the economy and fuck over their children.

TexMexBazooka,

Ehhh not really. On consumer devices yes, but when you start dealing with automated deployment and group policy and things like that, you can automate disabling telemetry services.

Now if you’re using something like azure or intune, you just have control of the spyware.

TexMexBazooka,

Yeah…. The double edged sword of cloud infrastructure is that you have to rely on them not to fuck it up.

Less of an issue with AWS

TexMexBazooka,

Fuck that. I’m not writing every one of the 1000 jobs I apply for a cover letter, they don’t even have the wherewithal to reply to a resume.

TexMexBazooka,

Nah, bullshit, I’m not unemployed. The entire point of a resume is to give you a clear, concise summary of my abilities. You want more details? Ask questions.

Fuck your cover letter.

Fuck your “one way interviews”

That’s bullshit. I work too. Im looking for opportunities, not companies that design their application processes to cater to the people desperate enough to waste 1hr+ of their time for the chance for an actual interview.

Fuck that and fuck you too.

TexMexBazooka,

I mean…. No. It’s just physics.

TexMexBazooka,

Insurance companies put enormous amounts of resources, time, and manpower into avoiding paying the bills. They’ll find some excuse buried in their 400 page packet, or they’ll deem something not a “medical necessity “ until it’s too late to do anything about it.

TexMexBazooka,

I think you can pull this off with a focusrite Audi interface and some elbow grease

TexMexBazooka,

Kids aren’t for everyone, but mine saved my life. To each their own.

TexMexBazooka,

That’s temporary. Kids grow, they age, they mature. After a while, you start to learn more from them than they do from you.

Then they grow up and leave, they don’t need you anymore. I haven’t gotten there yet, and I’m both excited and afraid. But one day, if you love them, and if you prepare them, they will return the favor. They’ll be there when you grow old. They’ll be there to support you, as you were them.

The “kids suck” mentality is true, I agree, kids suck. But they only suck if you have a very narrow view on your and their lives.

TexMexBazooka,

It’s all arbitrary and stupid and differentiating between Abrahamic faiths is a waste of breath

TexMexBazooka,

Holy fuck bro go to the doctor

TexMexBazooka,

I mean hopefully this clown show that is a Republican congress will hurt them in 2024. They aren’t competent.

TexMexBazooka,

Honest to god, the browser that wins is the one with the least bullshit popping up in my face when I open it

TexMexBazooka,

Yup.

TexMexBazooka,

It wouldn’t be possible for an individual. Video hosting in the scale we see from something like YouTube is built on massive content distribution networks.

TexMexBazooka,

Massive up front investment. Millions of dollars of hardware, distributed to be close to end users to minimize latency, all with their own redundant internet connections.

Petabyte level storage- that’s thousands of terabytes. Video storage takes up a lot of space, and storage drives fail. For every piece of equipment you have to buy a second one to run in parallel, that way if one fails the other can keep the system running. Oh, and you need a third so you can replace the one that failed.

Hosting in general is a very high investment prospect. You can do it Inexpensively using something like plex, but that isn’t very scalable.

TexMexBazooka,

Yeah that’s kind of a smooth brain move on the mods part tbh

TexMexBazooka,

Don’t get a pet if you aren’t able to handle it financially, including vet visits and an emergency fund

TexMexBazooka,

Boss makes a million, I make a buck That’s why we steal the catalytic converter off the company truck

TexMexBazooka,

The system kinda breaks down when normal people stop being able to afford homes

Phishing Mails (lemmy.world)

This will be a quick post. We have received a phishing mail to our [email protected] mail address telling that they are “lemmy.world Security Team”, telling that they will “disconnect” your account from our instance. This is ofc, not us. Do not fall for it! The attached image is how the mail looks like....

TexMexBazooka,

Have you tried telling them you don’t have insurance

TexMexBazooka,

There’s a bit of false equivalency here methinks

TexMexBazooka,

There wan an incident where people were told to evacuate and then the evacuation site was bombed, yes

TexMexBazooka,

Can we agree that “not letting people with Russian passport travel in NATO countries”

And “Slaughtering civilians en masse in retaliation to a terrorist attack”

Are just a wee bit different as far “collective punishment” goes?

TexMexBazooka,

……you’re comparing passports to murdering civilians.

TexMexBazooka,

Smooth brain take

TexMexBazooka,

No. There wasn’t a market and games aren’t free to make

I totally forgot how terrible a non-ad-free YouTube experience is

So I’ve been using youtube ad blockers since pretty much when ad blocker extensions were first available. Lately though I’ve been getting hit more and more with these messages that YT was sending out every 5 or so videos telling me that adblockers aren’t allowed. No problem, just gotta wait 5 seconds to x it out and then...

TexMexBazooka,

I’m subbed to both and it’s awesome. No ads, no algorithm, longer videos with better production values especially over topics that YouTube couldn’t have.

The modern conflict series is my favorite example

TexMexBazooka,

So there’s actually a pretty good video that one of the founders made, I think it was RealLifeLore, that talks about the making of Nebula. It’s a good watch if you want perspective on the service

TexMexBazooka,

That’s the one! I always get them confused for some reason

TexMexBazooka,

Whoa, do you have a source on that? That’s an incredible piece of context

TexMexBazooka,

Your other comment is stupid, and this one is worse

TexMexBazooka,

Religion needs to be eradicated

TexMexBazooka,

I’m a bit of an asshole, but if someone is bringing up religion in public they should be shamed

TexMexBazooka,

See that’s been tried, Abrahamic faiths are inherently expansionist. The only way to get rid of them is eradication of the faith, but we’ve all agreed genocide is a no go.

TexMexBazooka,

Come on over to lemm.ee we don’t defed unless it’s a last resort

TexMexBazooka,

And they still aren’t profitable at sll

TexMexBazooka,

In an ideal world I’d agree, but that’s not what we live in

TexMexBazooka,

What the fuck are you talking about?

Ukraine is in a defensive war right now. Afghanistan was in a defensive war with the US, as was Iraq. WW2 most of Eastern Europe was in a defensive war with Germany.

South Korea was in a defensive war with North Korea.

Like I guess you’re right if you ignore all of history lol.

TexMexBazooka,

Absolute smoothbrain take

TexMexBazooka,

Yeah, that’s the solution. It just fucks over new users who don’t know to block all the spam.

TexMexBazooka,
