Hmm well my country had socialism and no one was safe from work either. I mean literally, you were put in jail if you didn’t work

Yes the full story makes sense. I just read the title of the article and I immediately thought of this scene from Shrek 3 and I thought “ok I just have to make this” :)

So the squirrels on meth, do they have an f-droid client? Can’t find it

1,500 Feet = 457.2 Meters

I heard about them and I’d like to give it a try. But from what I heard, I’m afraid I couldn’t use it as my “daily driver”. Banking apps very probably won’t work, nor my country government apps. Also Facebook + Messenger are unfortunately very important where I live. MS Teams + Outlook would also be nice to have for my job.

But the truth is, I’ve never tried Jolla (nor I know anyone who owns one) so I’m not sure how accurate my view is. Maybe those things are possible to run now, I really don’t know

Done:

Windows -> Ubuntu (but that was long time ago)

Google Translate -> Deepl

Google Maps -> Mapy.com

Reddit -> Lemmy (thinking about somehow to switch to Piefed)

Stocard / Klarna -> Catima

Google photos -> Synology photos

In progress:

Gmail -> Mailbox.org

Tried but failed:

Facebook -> Friendica (not enough people, many important communities on Facebook)

Messenger -> Signal / Matrix / whatever (not enough people)

Android -> whatever (no sensible alternative)

Why not 5000% at this point? We all know you’re not gonna stick to your word and change your mind tomorrow morning to whatever crazy idea sparks in your senile brain. So why stop at 50%? Get mad! Sky’s the limit when you don’t give a shit!

Wait so Richard isn’t his direct ancestor? Just that Richard’s great-great grandparents are the same as Cumberbatch’ great-…-great grandparents. Do I understand it right?

I remember I was surprised about that when doing my family tree. I didn’t get to middle ages but even in 1700 - 1800, the common age of my ancestors when they got married was 22 - 23 for women and 25 - 26 for men. I expected much younger ages, like 18 - 19.

Note that all my ancestors were farmers or workers from rural Slavic part of the world so don’t imagine it like 1800 London or something

Hey it’s not just that. We have also many other things like … uhmm … uhmmmm … excuse me for one second

Ahhh Americans and their weeks starting with Sunday …

Omg he’s just one year in the office? How are we going to survive this?

I don’t know man. For the past 6 months we went with approach “Fuck scrum, let’s just work”. It didn’t go well. We were really disorganized, everyone going their own direction, things being overlooked, …

When a new colleague joined recently, he suggested taking more structured (scrum-like) approach. Things improved immediately.

Like I don’t know how you want to call it - scrum, kanban, whatever, I don’t care. But you need some structure in your team and you need some meetings where you talk about status, about looking back at things, about plans for next weeks, …

This is why I find UBI to be naive. At least in the current system

Edit: Actually in any current system when I think about it. Let’s take China or North Korea. If they’d invent robots that can do all the manual jobs, do you think that they’d just let all their citizens to sit on their asses and be fed like a livestock? In a world where every country tries to one-up every other country? And they keep like 1 billion of workforce just sit on their ass?
