It's an automated system, I doubt anyone actually cares like that.

Which is part of the problem.

Same, but at least you can have an account? I got the perma for the stupidest reason possible and I can't use the site. Somehow the system always figures out it's me. I would probably have to get a new computer IP and phone.

For context I have (had) an alt account that was banned from r/news years ago. I read the frontpage exclusively. r/news shows up there a lot. I forgot about this alt account and commented there. Then a few months after that ban I did the same thing.

I am clearly a despicable human being and shouldn't be allowed to use the only universal forum humans currently have.

So hard for people to understand lol. "But they said they were communists!" "And you believed them?"

Do you ever just pause before in your life and go "shit, maybe I don't really know jack about this after all"

Now would be a great time to start.

Yeah whatever, everyone collects it now. Since it gets stored by a fascist state either way, who gives a fuck?

Your uh... $1000 gaming PC? Isn't that pretty much all it can play? (assuming the game is released today)

Using those specific examples, you must be naive to not think 100% of people reading this would see you as a moron.

Forget Chrome and use Edge. It's honestly the best chromium browser now.

Two badgers in my asshole says leadership is a quality we've lost. I just wanted to say two badgers in my asshole and don't know where I was going with this.

 

But even with a decade of experience every time I've approached an American company it's been a complete non-starter. Is it because they know they couldn't pay me peanuts like the other guys?

There's even two visa lotteries this year. Guess I'll just look on wistfully while various nameless east-asian countries game the system 🙃

I probably unwittingly chose the worst time in known history to switch jobs.

If anybody has an open senior SRE position at work, that either sponsors or has a Canadian subsidary, let me know!

 

I want a resource like this, you want a resource like this, subscribe! and maybe it'll get somewhere.

Not self-promotion since I'm hoping to hand this off asap if it ever gets going. Sorry if this breaks the rules.

 

I have a 21:9 and I'd like things to be able to use that real estate. Is there a chromium plugin that could achieve this that you know of? I couldn't find one specifically for Lemmy
