csfirecracker,

Some loans do have cost penalties for that, though

csfirecracker,

There’s a fork of openboard that you can add the DLL for google swipe typing to. I’m currently using it and the swipe works as well as gboard

csfirecracker,

Not classical but a piece of music everyone knows nut few can name is Green Onions by Booker T and the MGs: youtu.be/_bpS-cOBK6Q?feature=shared

csfirecracker,

I believe they are referring to the Challenger lunar launch that exploded. What they believe it came down to was a tolerance issue in the O-Rings they were using which if I remember right was a concern already placed by the engineers.

csfirecracker,

lmao needing caffeine apparently. Leaving it up because I’d love shuttles to go that far one day :P

csfirecracker,

There are dozens of us! Dozens!

csfirecracker,

I’m with you on the bahn mi, every time I have it I’m like “Why do I not eat this more often!?”

csfirecracker,

It’s a mat where you jump… to conclusions!

csfirecracker,

I like the university sweaters. I too graduated from scribble U

csfirecracker,

The original image has something along the lines of “I hate this system” and the smug guy in the well is saying “Ah, and yet you participate in said system!” as a gotcha. I think the purpose in this one is just carrying over the smugness with which people post the XKCD when any new possible technological standard is proposed (whether or not it has any merits)

csfirecracker,

I think they’re arguing that unless you make yourself easily replaceable, you don’t have to make it a negotiation. They aren’t arguing the law, they’re just talking power dynamics.

csfirecracker,

Your point regarding the legalities of the situation wasn’t missed. I agree with you that we need rights, but the point on the other side is while they can indeed say no, they cannot compel you to come in through means other than threatening firing you. They can say no and attempt to intimidate you, but firing and retraining for most non-entry level roles is a lot of work and often not worth the time and effort compared to letting an employee have a week off.

So while it is formally a request, we as employees can present it as an ultimatum and often if you aren’t terrible at your job, the power-tripping boss will realize it is easier for them to acquiesce and let you have your vacation than it is to go through the hiring process.

csfirecracker,

You can drag the line in the middle back and forth to show the whole place before or after.

csfirecracker,

Ready for a rollthrough into guard

csfirecracker,

Right now that is a bit of a sticking point with Lemmy. Right now, as far as I can tell, none of the apps for lemmy really do discovery.

If you are on an instance with a large amount of people, the easiest way is probably your instance’s communities list. This can be found by going to your lemmy instances web domain (in your case programming.dev) and log in. On desktop it will just show a little “communities” link in the top left you can click on, on the mobile site you have to tap trending -> explore communities.

What this “communities” list does is list every community that anyone on your instance has subscribed to. Subscriber and daily active user numbers may not be accurate as they as far as I can tell only count your instance’s users.

What I did when I first started lemmy was go through this list and subscribe to any community that remotely interested me.

The place where you will be able to see the absolute most number of communities is a lemmy indexer like lemmyverse.net which lists almost all instances and has all of their communities listed.

Other than that, though, I think discoverability is something actively being developed on the lemmy platform.

Hope this was helpful and you enjoy your time here o7

csfirecracker,

But most of all… I’M LOOSE

csfirecracker,

On the internet, nobody knows you’re really a frog

csfirecracker,

Sometimes I dream aboute cheese.

csfirecracker,

Thats the bessacarr I’ve ever seen!

csfirecracker,

Presentation != deliciousness. This looks great, no need to make it fancy plating if it is only for yourself

csfirecracker,

I’m in Canada but I would definitely say the scooters in the bike lane are no more trouble than a slower cyclist. Scoot a away!

csfirecracker,

I recently moved closer to work, so now my commute is a 10-15 minute ebike ride. I really enjoy the ride, and (along with a small dose of caffeine) it really serves to wake me up in the morning. Basically my only complaint is that when it gets cold and rainy it can be hard to bring up the motivation to get on and ride. Honestly though, it’s nothing that can’t be overcome by some good rain gear. Honestly, I highly recommend going out and taking a nice ebike for a ride if anyone is on the fence about it. I was convinced pretty quickly.

csfirecracker,

+1 to tumbleweed! I hopped between popOS, Kubuntu, and others before finding the I really enjoy the customizability and the file system of openSUSE. Any time I break anything I can just roll back!

Canada is the only G7 country without a national school food program. Advocates say it's time (www.cbc.ca)

Canada is the only country in the G7 that doesn't have a national school food program. Researchers say that as high inflation affects food prices, more children need access to these programs — but community groups say they need stable funding from the federal government to keep everyone fed.

csfirecracker,

The same in BC, as far as I’m aware.

csfirecracker,

Don’t know how to solve your problem but I too recently made the switch from gnome to KDE and I really do love everything they do design-wise. Everything being so round in gnome for some reason makes me feel like I’m in a childrens playspace haha

csfirecracker,

I think the person you’re replying to confused loons and canada geese. Canada geese are the assholes that will bully small children because they can lol

csfirecracker,

That’s actually what the tab heading says if you open it in browser. “Google Graveyard - Killed by Google”

csfirecracker,

I often wonder how many of my “Aha!” moments are related to background data I didn’t notice consciously at first

csfirecracker,

This demonstrates in a really layman-understandable way some of the shortcomings of LLMs as a whole, I think.

csfirecracker,

Thank you for putting it far more eloquently than I could have

csfirecracker,

I didn’t mean to argue against the usefulness of LLMs entirely, they absolutely have their place. I was moreso referring to how everyone and their dog are making AI assistants for tasks that need accurate data without addressing how easy it is for them to present you bad data with total confidence.

Was there anyone who was force "immune"?

Basically what the title says. There’s always discussions about someone being force sensitive and how they could use the force or not sensitive to it at all, but has anyone ever been completely immune to it? Like if Vader was doing a force choke and the person was just like “why are you holding your hand up like that? What...

csfirecracker,

I always thought that was playing on the “mind tricks only work on the weak-minded” thing. And thats why he was having none of Qui-Gon’s nonsense

csfirecracker,

I was ready for it to be loss but I’m glad it was something else

csfirecracker,

We wanted 60fps mode for other systems, but a switch port is most definitely going to be the opposite of a 60fps mode was the point I think.

csfirecracker,

At first I read it too fast and read he was getting top surgery. Would have been more newsworthy.

[help] can only connect dualshock 3

I’m using Ubuntu 22.04 with a Bluetooth dongle that should be Bluetooth 4.0 but the only controller that will connect is my dualshock 3 . Ubuntu does not seem to detect my dualshock 4 or dualsense controllers through usb or Bluetooth. Every where I check online says it should just work out of the box . Any trouble shooting...

csfirecracker,

Looking at the products website the dongle you are using only has driver support for Windows 10. Unfortunately, you need to make sure to get a dongle that supports Linux as far as I know. As for USB connection, that I’m not sure. Controllers have always worked out of the box for me on Ubuntu wired. Are you sure the usb cable your connection is capable of data passthrough? Some usb cables are power only.

csfirecracker,

It sort of came off to me as you were considering primary-residence homeowners to be investors, and it seemed framed in a negative light

csfirecracker,

+1 on darn tough. Only socks I own that I dont destroy in a week

csfirecracker,

I use it one-handed. My pinky supports the bottom of the phone, rest of the fingers support the back, I navigate with my thumb. If I need to type for an extended period of time I use both thumbs to type more quickly. I use the Galaxy Note 10+ which I think is well into being considered a large phone

csfirecracker,

Assuming we ever find a way to get the plastic out of everything

csfirecracker,

Absolutely, I’ll just get it on sale when the modding scene is mature.

csfirecracker,

You’ve got it right. English just sucks lol. It’s pokey
