memes@lemmy.world•Sometimes I wonder if I should call and help troubleshoot…
4·25 days agoFWIW, this is a bug of some sort in Steam. My wife and I play together and I see her spam like this all the time, and her game is working perfectly.
Our setups are the same, and I apparently never spam her. The one diff is my comp is on ethernet, and hers is on wifi due to it’s location.
Wonder if it has to do with connection.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL about the bicolored-spined porcupine which has yellow spines at the base and a fully prehensile tailEnglish

Uh, false. So called “serving” class jobs (wait staff, hotel maids and a few others) have a lower minimum wage in many of the provinces. In Quebec, their sales for their shifts are even tracked an proactively taxed for the expected tips they should receive. Which is why you get stink eye from servers in Quebec, they get taxed on expected tip output even if they don’t get tipped.
I see they have removed the “service” terms held over from slave nomenclature and now call it a “minimum tipped wage”.

Pro Tip is not Pro Working.
Pro living wage, pro profit sharing, pro median income for CEOs… These are pro-working views.
Tip economy is part of the very class war problem we find ourselves in.

15·2 months agoI think the word drink was originally only an action, until someone started to refer to all drinkable items as “drinks” and the language adapted.
A similar thing is happening now, as people call things that can be eaten, “eats”. So you can " eat an eat"
This one?

9·6 months agoSeriously. Neurodivergent folks like myself stand an iota of a chance of being successful with a cubicle. Open floor plans are an assault on our senses and the wet dream of micromanagers. They are awful and the reason I exclusively work from home.
I would rather walk for six months than spend 5 hours squished into modern aircraft.
Not only would I be far more comfortable, I would have life experiences other than dealing with people I would rather be as far away from as possible, and I would be in better shape, and would likely make friends along the way.
Anyone contributing to open source either does it:
- on their companies dime, which means they work for a rare company building open source solutions
- at the end of their day, on their weekend, or during their vacation
Most FOSS devs are in position two. By a large margin. They could be relaxing, or earning more money doing freelancing to make ends meet, but instead they are trying to build something they want to see happen. That requires focusing on the important tasks and that often means not having time to spend on poorly reported bugs that are actually users just not RTFM and opening issues. It wastes the devs time, and projects with too much of this have development stagnate and are frequently shuttered.
And devs that just do this to get a better job stop contributions once their new job takes over their life, and then the project suffers.
Users need to appreciate FOSS devs more because some of the most important projects we need in 2025 are developed only because they want to see them happen.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Clock but we saved DB space by just returning the index of the array of DigitNamesEnglish
6·9 months agoAnd then you added 1, right?
…right?
This is me, though I figured out a while ago it’s better if I just ignore Daylight Savings.
My inner clock doesn’t “switch”. There’s no change. There’s just half the year where I’m up an hour earlier and forcing myself to bed earlier and it completely fucks my energy cycle.

The modding momentum is picking up quite a bit and as a game engine its far better than Minecraft.

42·9 months agoAI is opening so many security HOLES. Its not solving shit. AI browsers and MCP connectors are wild west security nightmares. And that’s before you even trust any code these things write.
