I heard some grocery chain was experimenting with rfid chips on all their products so you can just load up and leave and sensors at the door detect what you’re carrying and charge you the appropriate amount automatically. Personally I’d rather pull up to a register and have it show me a list of what’s in my cart and the total price rather than automatically charging, but otherwise it’s not a bad idea.
Ooh, that sounds good too. Mm, now I’m hungry. :P
Ah, fair enough, thanks! // Yeah I looked into Hexbear briefly and it didn’t seem like my jam, but I’ll check out slrpnk and dbzer0.
Yeah, they’re too busy handwringing, crying about how little power they have, and bitching because their constituents keep expecting them to stand up against bullshit like this.
Man I don’t even like cabbage and that still looks amazing.
The obvious choice here is to get vaccinated if you’re not.
No, what would be better is if that guy got a bad case of my backhand across his mouth every time he opens it.
I mean, do you know how to tell which server in an 8’ tall rack full of them is the one that isn’t working? Do you know where the power button is on that server? Do you know if there are any special procedures required to cycle power on it? Sure, it’s often the big obvious one, but not always, and that doesn’t always help you anyway.
Seems like an opportunity to lose users. The whole instance thing is already kinda confusing for new people (source: just joined yesterday), but making every instance only connect to a select few instances would mean having to make an account on multiple different instances if you wanted to see a disparate selection of content. As much as I enjoy debating politics and religion I wouldn’t join a server that only showed those communities because I also like videos of huskies being sassy, battletech memes, etc.
What’s hilarious is that my perma-ban got lifted on appeal, I can post and shit now, but the message they sent me said it was denied and would stay in place. They are so goddamnned confused over there.
Haha, viva la revolucion!
Thanks, that ought to get me started.
Oh yeah, agreed, it’s definitely a problem. I once had to drive 4 hours on short notice because we had 3 guys covering the entire state of New Mexico, one was on a long call and the other was out sick. The on-site guy kept insisting that the outage was some arcane server issue he couldn’t suss out himself, so I hit the road. But when I pulled up in the parking lot there was a fucking backhoe not 300’ from the building that had clearly been digging where our fiber ran, and about 15 people standing around it scratching their heads. Worse, guy could see it from his fucking office window, and just… never bothered to look outside I guess. I just took a picture of it that also showed the sign in front of the building, fired it off to him with a lengthy rant about his obliviousness, and went home. I had a list of incidents like this in my internal email signature and they still refused to hire anyone else.
What struck me as weird is that it’s not a smooth curve like you would expect from lens distortion or whatever, it’s straight for 6 windows, then angled from #7 on, which is what made me wonder if the building was subtly angled or something.
The message about my perma-ban was actually 11 hours older than the message about my temp-ban being lifted, so they perma-banned me and then un-temp-banned me, which is… kinda fucky.
I haven’t used it in a couple years now, so maybe they’ve gotten better. shrug Also never tried it on my phone, I use duckduckgo’s browser.
Two reasons.
I’m new myself, thanks for the recommendations. While you’re at it, do you happen to know of any good political/religion debate … subs? what are they called here? I’m going to call them subs for now. Maybe some Anarchist and non-tankie Communist subs?
Yeah, it’s still set as my default for handling PDFs, so I keep opening them in there and then copying the address over to chrome by hand because I’m too lazy to go find the default app settings.
