It upsets me, how many people spell his name wrong.

But Mister Rogers would let it go.

Stop fucking Larry

Eeh, you have a point, but on the other hand, if the word meaning “literally” no longer means “literally” then we need a new definitive term for the concept.

And we don’t have one. We just have a word that is becoming more ambiguous every year

They used to say “one carry-on and one personal item” (which included things like a purse or a backpack). On my shorter trips, I could travel without checking a bag under this policy.

WSL is pretty good these days. Dual boot with Windows is still a pretty risky move with how easily Windows will overwrite your boot loader. I usually recommend you pick one os or the other rather than dual boot, so I’m in favor of WSL or virtualbox. Personally, I have never cared for needing to reboot just to switch operating systems. I tend to stick with one and the second one does nothing but take up disk partition space.

WSL lets you run both simultaneously without rebooting. Virtualbox lets you do the same with extra setup. Virtualbox makes it easier to do GUI setups than WSL does, and the network configuration is a little more obvious.

The best option is to get a second machine so you can run both. If that’s not an option, virtualbox is the better choice for learning. If you just want a Linux environment on your existing setup (similar to using a Mac) then WSL is usually good enough

Tabasco?

I prefer hot sauce on old pizza, not vinegar

You’re arguing opinions and trying to convince someone as if they are facts. There’s plenty to criticize about how AI is used, but it is a valuable tool for those that use it.

The amount of value it provides is very subjective, and even if you don’t find it useful, many others do. You might as well be trying to argue that you don’t like photography because it doesn’t provide the same experience of drawings and paintings. You wouldn’t be wrong to feel that way, but you would be wrong to tell someone else that they need to feel the way you do.

I want an instance already established, very populated, and proven to last long term, so I don’t have to create another account

Back to School, definitely. Well, not really badmouth, but I thought it was fairly mediocre.

But really I meant to praise his standup and say his movies didn’t do him justice. He was just funnier when doing his own material

His standup was definitely better than any of his movies

Reading these comments I feel fortunate to work for a company where this is all uncommon.

There is arguably some drama when layoffs happen or when there are organizational changes, but it’s pretty tame.

All I can think of is I work for a large company in a relatively educated field (I’m a senior software developer for a technology company) in a very corporate environment. Most of my peers are just looking to be professional and foster a productive team dynamic, so they can keep a healthy balance between work and their families

Ah right, the “how about we compromise and just have a little genocide” option

I say we lose the entire Crowder meme format. The “change my mind” bit was from one of his stunts, and this is just keeping it alive longer

There’s still many other meme formats that send the same message, we don’t need to sully Calvin’s image by associating it with a Crowder stunt

While Calvin in a Crowder meme is better than Crowder in a Crowder meme, maybe we just don’t use a Crowder meme at all?

There are several others that convey basically the same message

I feel like I was watching a very different situation than the rest of you were.

First off, the antiwork subreddit didn’t actually accomplish anything. It was mostly people complaining about bad/illegal practices at their jobs, and literally nothing changing.

Second, things didn’t die after that mod appearance. It drew attention to many users that the mods had a different goal than they did, but that didn’t change the atmosphere of the posts for very long. The work_reform sub did become more popular, and antiwork still kept getting just as many people complaining about bad practices.

And neither sub got people organized, neither sub changed attitudes, and neither sub made a difference.

I’m a programmer, which is in a pretty bad spot if you’re looking for work right now.

I was laid off in January and had to start looking again. While it’s important to be able to demonstrate your skills, the only way I got an interview for my new job was by being referred by an old colleague. Turns out maintaining relationships with people who can vouch for your work is a very big part of the process.

You’re excused. Anyone else?

Bro aren’t you on Lemmy.world?

You’re already defederated from Hexbear, you don’t have to ignore it

Why does Man fly in Knight when his car is right beneath him? Is he stupid?

I struggle to understand the people who are angry about this one. I’m not saying it’s a good business move, but it’s not like it hurts the general population

With fast food, you’re already paying a premium to get prepared food on demand. The people who can’t or don’t want to afford it can avoid the premium pricing by planning ahead and packing lunches from home.

This is basic supply and demand economics at this point. If prices go up, demand will go down as people move to other restaurants that are cheaper, or stick with groceries.

Now if it was a grocery store doing this, I would feel differently. But fast food is not a basic human need.
