Based on the various draconian terms and conditions I’ve seen on my search for a solution I’d be surprised if this was driven by Etsy. In my opinion this is much more likely to be caused by its payment processor.

Are you turning it the right way?

I’m asking because I’ve seen circumstances where everyone was convinced that it needed to go one way, but many expensive hours later were proven to be wrong.

Also, is there something jammed in the pipe, like say roots or a snake?

On a wing and a prayer striding off to the next free meal…

Interestingly, in my profession the media is saying that they’re screaming for people, my peak association is saying that we should issue Visa’s for international recruitment.

That same peak body is publishing articles saying that our profession is demanding too much pay.

Meanwhile with 40 years experience, I’ve spent the past 30 months looking for the next opportunity, getting ignored or worse, getting told that my application won’t be pursued without any explanation. Demoralising is not strong enough to convey the impact of such a response.

I speak with my peers with similar levels of experience and they’re seeing exactly the same thing.

I hung my shingle out 25 years ago as an independent consultant, been through several downturns across my career, but I’ve never seen anything like this.

I think that we’ve gotten to the point where the free market has broken and government intervention is required.

Presumably there’s a record of the medication, given that someone had to pay for it.

It’s not real.

I think that the missing link for the fediverse is the user interface that most users see.

This is oxymoronic given that the original Reddit looks eerily similar to Lemmy today, but it’s not just looks I’m talking about.

Moderation and usability tools, bots, blocks, filtering and spam control need to go through several iterations before we can actually grow this community.

Search is another issue, as is post deletion. Right now a post vanishes, but all the stuff hanging off it is still there. This makes for a complex user experience.

Finally, Lemmy appears to be run by developers who appear to be interested in their own issues and regularly appear to dismiss issues raised by users. This is not sustainable.

I consider myself a user of the fediverse before I’m a Lemmy or Mastodon user. We have a way to go before this settles down.

At one point, before we virtualised everything, I had a custom desk built in an L-shape. Instead of a desk and a return, I had the refurbishment team put together a desk with two desks instead. It gave me two sets of drawers, two computer cubby holes and the gap was too small for the horrible keyboard adjustable shelf that kept hitting your knees, so they replaced it with a fixed surface instead.

People laughed.

Colleagues sremoveded.

Then they wanted one too.

Now I have a mobile lectern with an iMac clamped to it. Height adjustable, wheels, enough space for keyboard, trackpad and USB hub. I move around my office as the mood or light takes me.

I am part of the Reddit exodus. I’m here because I have no interest in promoting or supporting the atrocious policies that now govern Reddit.

The pace here is different, but the interactions feel more measured.

Based on being online since 1990, I’m comfortable with being an “early adopter”, even though I’ve only been here for a few months and Lemmy is five years old.

Will Lemmy survive? Who knows. The horse and buggy didn’t, neither did Yahoo!, MySpace or Google+, but here we are nonetheless.

I like it here.

Wow…

…okay I’ll try that and see what gives.

So, when you use 40 or so programming languages, your employer needs to supply a mansion…

I’m okay with that.

Now, where is the boss?

That’s interesting.

We bought the new remote because we thought we could use two remotes simultaneously, which turned out to be poor documentation.

The amplifier is not connected via HDMI and does not support CEC.

The ATV is configured to use IR to control the amplifier.

I’m going to answer your points below. Not because I want to tell you to move to Linux, but because the information you state is incorrect. Linux is not for everybody. It works for millions of people and it works for me, but that doesn’t mean it will be what you’re looking for.

In order:

1. There are no .exe files. Neither are there any on MacOS, iOS, Android, or anything else that isn’t Windows/DOS. To start software requires that it’s on the search path in exactly the same way that Windows requires. You can see what that is with the command: echo $PATH. Most Linux distributions have a graphical user interface which features icons and menus, but if you don’t want that, you don’t need to install it.

2. You absolutely can, but it doesn’t work the same way as Windows, because it’s not Windows. You can for example login to Linux because the login manager started at system startup. You see a desktop after logging in because there’s a startup system for your account. The printer works because the software driving the print queue is started.

3. Wine is a tool. It’s not a replacement for Windows. It’s not intended to be. It’s intended to help users and developers make Windows software work better on Linux.

4. LibreOffice is one of many office suites. I have been using it as my productivity software for 25 years in my company and I’m not at all disappointed to have escaped the Microsoft Clippy, Ribbons, Office365 abominations.

5. I have used Libre Calc for most of my numerical analysis processes. I used real tools like R and gnuplot when I was analyzing terabytes of data.

6. The terminal is a tool. I use it daily. At any time there’s a dozen of them open. Not everyone needs a terminal, but there are plenty of things that you can only do in a terminal. A random example, list all the files in your account, group them by extension, then add up how much space each extension takes. In case you’re wondering:

find ~ -type f | egrep -o "\.[a-zA-Z0-9]+$" | sort -u | LC_ALL=C xargs -I '%' find . -type f -name "*%" -exec du -ch {} + -exec echo % \; | egrep "^\.[a-zA-Z0-9]+$|total$" | uniq | paste - -

Linux is not Windows. It never was and it never will be, neither is any other operating system. The community around Linux is helpful, the ecosystem is vibrant and it’s free. If you want to pay for support, you can. If you don’t, there’s plenty of opportunity to do your own thing.

If you want it to be like Windows, you’re going to be very disappointed.

I’m guessing that the “Felix Baumgartner descent” is not available as an option…

Wonder if the Boeing board should have been on that flight instead. “We stand behind our product.” “Excellent, now take a deep breath and jump.”

What does the penalty look like and how will this return the trees to the community?

What’s the LEGO set code … asking … for a friend.

Yes, and some days it even acknowledges that there are humans living outside of New York, or even beyond the United States.

Perhaps you might expand your game “design” team to include people outside those sitting in the same office.

At the rate you’re going, we are enjoying it less every day.

Rule 34 applies…

Also, the word you’re looking for is: “headless”, as in, “headless install”
