I don't like it, but in reality I have 2 choices.

  1. Someone who is supporting awful things around the world, but will (at least temporarily) protect myself and my community. or
  2. Someone who will continue supporting awful things around the world, and will without a doubt persecute and hunt me and my community.

It's a shit choice. But its an easy choice. One candidate is a very real threat to not just myself, but my friends, family, and community. The other is not.

I'd love our magic 3rd option to show up and be viable, but they won't. We all know this.

I’d argue an airfryer is better to leave alone then an oven. They turn off on their own, so if you forget about them, it runs its 20 mins or whatever then turns off.

My oven is on for the weekend if I fuck up haha.

Damn appreciate the details. I’ll def give it a go!

Thank you for mentioning hots, because that’s like the ONE steam game I couldn’t live without. Good to know it’s possible, even if I have to play true full screen vs windowed.

I just got a steam deck, and needed to install FF14 (non steam) so I was mucking around in desktop mode… yeah. I’ll prob be getting a spare drive for my tower now to try out Linux. I’d love nothing more then to cut ties to windows.

You can def export your subs. I did it when I set up freetube originally. So it should just be a question of if the other program will import them.

Oh. They can afford to keep them.

Unless I die tomorrow and never get to use all the money I suffered for now to use later.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s a balancing act. But there’s no promise I’ll even make it to retirement. So I’m going to enjoy my now, just in case.

It’s not bad to be skeptical considering their record. It’s responsible. Yes. It’s good that they are doing something to make things more safe. But yes it’s also good to continue to call attention to the ways this new tech can (and almost certainly will) be abused.

They dug their own hole of skepticism, not us.

I don’t really care if someone’s “tired of hearing ACAB” if people are still losing their lives unjustly to bad cops. Continuing to raise awareness in any little way is better then not being annoying.

Who’s working “maybe” 3 hrs a day… all the programmers I work with every day are on 10 hr days right now…..

But I’ve seen enough of your comments in this thread, so I’m super sure you “know a guy” who will prove little ol me wrong.

Why can’t I make a thread? Why can I only use one emote? Why can I sometimes see a message on my phone but not on the computer? Why is there an “old” and a “new” teams app? Why does each one constantly ask me to use the other one? Why are there god damn Mabalene video filters, but yet my god damn calendar won’t sync properly with outlook. Why when I update my picture, does 1/3 of my team see the new one, 1/3 sees the old one, and 1/3 just sees my initials. I’d continue but my thumbs are tired.

Teams actively makes communicating with my team more difficult and I hope it dies so soon.

Are you aware that slack has a back button? Makes getting back to that original channel a breeze. Even works with thumb buttons on my mouse like pretty much every browser.

Or ctrl + k and you can just type part of the channel name/person name etc to quickly go back to it.

Also just a emote to acknowledge a message without spinning up a thread is my go to. Just a 👍”yep I see this”
