Maybe on account of the communities I subscribe to, but I’ve personally not come across right wing extremism on Lemmy. The tankies, though … so prevalent. Anyways, by server blocking hexbear it’s reduced by 90%.

The Korean War was led by the UN. NATO wasn’t involved.

… “and don’t worry about your family back home in North Korea who will be compressed into tinned meal”.

The defection rate will be low I suspect. It’s an automatic TFK (total family kill) to defect and I doubt they’ll send anyone who don’t have family at home in Glorious Motherland!

Server blocking hexbear is the only way to stay sane on Lemmy.

Completely. Give me a light Geländewagen (and I’m talking about the utility version that armies buy, not the blinged up Chelsea tractor version), with triple differential lock and it’ll out-drive these monster trucks any day, on any terrain, pulling the same weight.

Yeah, I agree that might work if the marketing team isn’t that connected to the product. I’ve not worked with a marketing team where that would work, but maybe it will for some. It doesn’t change the “massive customer will only renew if” scenario, though.

What else is a career politician going to do? Join the work force?

This is the way. Don’t let Word confuse you into believing it’s a DTP program.

The challenge is, in a real org of some size, you’ll suddenly get marketing or customer success asking you for commitments that are very far out, because ad slots have to be booked or a very large customer renewal is coming up.

And some of the normal coping mechanism (beta-branch that spins off stable feature to the general release branch) don’t work for all those requests.

Try as you might, you are going to get far off deadlines that you have to work towards. Not for everything but for more than you’d like.

What a cretin.

100% agreed. I’m not condoning Uber. I’m saying taxi companies should be better at copying the convenience of Uber.

In every single way Ubers are more convenient than a taxi. It’s amazing to me that taxi companies can’t see all the little improvements that going by Uber brings.

100% this.

The problem isn’t X. Or Y. Or W.

The problem is A+B+C+D+E+F+G+H+I+J+K+L+M+N+O+P+Q+R+S+T+U+V+W+X+Y+Z+A1+B1 … etc.

We need to change everything. Everything needs a reduction. AND we need to build massive nuclear CO2 extraction facilities that generate synthetic fuels for the places where we need energy density, seeded with carbon captured from the few places where we still release.

And we can do it. It won’t even be that expensive, certainly not as expensive as we fear, once we get going.

But we lack the will. Things need to get a lot worse before we will get our asses in gear.

Lemmy is a very young crowd, to whom anyone over 30 is a boomer.

OK, twerp.

Enig. Meget af det her kommer jo direkte fra USAs husstle-culture. Jeg spurgte engang en amerikansk CEO, hvordan han dog kunne gøre alt det her og samtidigt se sine børn. Han svarede at han havde masser af tid til sine unger, han så dem om morgenen inden de skulle i skole og han var tit hjemme i tid til at putte dem.

Øh, ok…

Dunno about affordable but you can usually find some decently priced 1L Dell Optiplex micro systems. I’ve got one running under my desk 24/7. Great Linux support.

That’s a heretic opinion here on Lemmy.

Through my job I’ve knows two billionaires; one inherited it all through a business his father built, the other acquired it all through a business he built.

Neither seemed any happier than you or me; they travelled in more luxury, for sure, and their clothes cost a bit more; they of course also had multiple houses, which they couldn’t really use at the same time and one of them had an enormous yacht and private jets (plural). It all looked very fancy but I don’t know that their happiness increased commensurately.

I think once you have a roof over your head, food on the table and don’t have to worry about what the next year or two looks like, you’re 97% there. The last 3% is influenced by money, but not determined by it.
