Among my millennial friends the majority do not own their own home, gave up family ideas, and are basically just fucked. Major reason I have a house is because when I was younger I killed a bunch of strangers for the government. Now even that isn’t enough for an increasing part of the country. Fuck, replacing my roof is going to be thousands of dollars which I only have part of right now.
no need to burn them down, just focus on the chillers. if they use evaporative coolers a water balloon partially filled with oil and soap will fuck that entire system.
also better to cripple then destroy as they get a full insurance payout where just drastically degrading facility performance is harder to prove the monetary value.
This is fascinating. Most of those are indeed elder millennial double spaces after the punctuation but the inconsistency is odd. Also I don’t see them on my computer.
I am not seeing a problem so I suspect its an elder millenial/xennial thing?
Other possibility is I am on piefed, you are lemmy, and the formatting has gotten bjorked between them?
edit: I am curious now, can you send me a screenshot?
They just can’t help themselves. All of these techbro fuckers jumped the gun on this being “THE” AI wave but instead have bet everything on the equivalent of the self checkout kiosk at the grocery store. That was touted as the way to save money, lower the chances of unionism, and make the checkout process more efficient. Instead it has been a money pit that introverts and morally flexible people love! AI slop is flooding Youtube, drowning the tech industry in biblical sized code commits and hallucinated security threats, while continuing to be the greatest theft in the history of our species (after that mother fucker Thog stole my ancestors shiny rock).
Trying to recover my old account but supposedly “TrustMeBroThisIsSuperSecure” is not sufficient. Fucks sake, even I would have trouble just typing that in.
indeed! The open source community should adopt LLM powered mailing list filters. Basically new age version of “protection money” as you pay AI firms to stop other AI firms from drowning your organization.
Joking aside, the dead Internet theory is unfortunately looking pretty accurate.
kinda like an anglerfish in that you are lured into a false sense of security which makes the straight to the jugular scathing responses even more effective.
I’ve been using some variation of Linux since the mid 90’s but never been able to fully switch over. That said I am on my longest and perhaps permanent switch over with KDE EndevourOS (Arch based). I don’t believe this is what you are hoping for but I do believe it is close so perhaps something to keep an eye on for the future.
I have gotten Teams to run once for a about an hour before it crashed and now I can’t figure out what proton/wine voodoo witch doctor recipe I used.
No idea what luck you will have with RDP or RustDesk.
KDE plasma’s window tiling manager is really damn cool but has no documentation. Still you can do neat stuff with it like having a floating window tile on top of another tile (basically an always on top state but on steroids) with distinct tiling arrangements for each virtual desk space.
Scaling has been good but font support is still at the “almost but still not perfect”. A graphics designer might be in trouble.
Drivers - This is where Arch’s pacman (software package manager) and pkgbuild really shine. If it can compile and is available as a git repo, an rpm, or deb file then there is a good chance you can get it working. That said there are still an unfortunate mountain of unsupported stuff.
Otherwise, with all the improvements to Wine via proton and the other forks, it is getting easier to run a lot more Window’s applications.
Like I said, EndevourOS/Arch with KDE is getting pretty close to being an easy jump from Windows but not 100% perfect.
They can’t make it to obvious this is the bad place.
“Alright so this system is called ‘testing’ but you need to get two seniors to sign off plus a good reason to push an update.”
/What about this system?/
“Oh, that’s where we do all are actual testing, just be careful not to break it too much.”
/Alright, what is it called?/
“Uhm, I think its called prod or something like that. The root password is written on a sticky note on the upper right corner of John’s monitor.”
/Who is John, the senior dev or something?/
“What? Hahaha no, John is just the summer intern.”
I have no artistic skills so freebie: Arch is like Russian roulette where the odds are good but there is still a non-zero chance some update is going to shit the bed. I don’t even know how to convey that in meme form either.
