How often do you get existential dread?
I’m pushing half a century in an industry that is not kind to old guys. I try to fend it off but every now and then it hits me. I’m pretty sure this is not unique to my life experience, or it wouldn’t have a term :-)
If bullshit jobs are *really* bullshit, how do businesses justify the expense?
Businesses are in it for the money, employees tend to be one of the larger expenses, so maintaining some bullshit positions that would cost them money doesn’t make fiscal sense, so what’s up?
How do you feel about pizza?

What is the maximum number of active users on an instance before the financial burden gets too high for the admins?

Wireless Shower Head
If you were to make a wireless shower head, would it have hydrogen molecules and suck in the oxygen from the air to create water? Would you have to recharge it with hydrogen?
Backwards compatibility is the best feature of Xbox, and I don't understand why Sony is so far behind on this
When I got the XSX recently, it was so I can play Starfield when it comes out. That was basically the only reason. I did not realize the extensive backwards compatibility that this thing has. But since getting it, I’ve been playing FF13 trilogy, Fable games, Dragon Age series, Lost Odyssey, etc. Basically all games of note...

I'm sick of nsfwlemmy.com content popping up in my feed
For the most part it’s borderline child porn or stable diffusion spam. There should be an option to opt out of content from specific instances on account level.
Finally coming around to using Linux. How's it on a tablet?
I’m 43 and not really starting using Linux. I’ve dabbled with distros on and off over the years, but I never made the full switch because work always had some program or policy that just wouldn’t play nice with Linux. With all the crappy Microsoft decisions, bloatware, and ads I decided to try and use Linux exclusively on...
Checkmate
What's the most alarming experience you've had with a stranger?
If you could take a single character out of a piece of media (book, film, TV show, video game, etc) who would it be?
They would lose any magical powers they may have had in the book, but anything they are, rather than can do, will stay. For example people from the His Dark Materials world would keep their daemons. You can take them out at any time in the story’s plot, but for all other people consuming the media, it will be shown that the...
Besides lemmy, what's another good reddit alternative?
Hi! Recently exiled reddit user, here. I’m curious what other alternatives to reddit there are, besides Lemmy, and Raddle, of course. Also, imho, Phuks is a good alternative, there’s no hate-speech (that I’m aware of) and people are pretty respectful. Anyways, let’s hear your suggestions! Thank you!
Life gave me some lemons. What should I do?

I saw the trailer for “American society of magical Negroes” and it looked kinda funny in the first 20 seconds, then the trailer went on to show what I’m pretty sure was literally everything in the movie....

Tea drinkers of Lemmy how do you brew your cuppa?
I’ve been drinking iced Earl Grey with no sweetener for years. How do you do your brew?
Why in Sci-Fi they always use Marine or Naval terminology and structure instead of Aviation for the spaceship structure, navigation and military ranks?
I don’t really know how to structure this question, but yeah, why is always Naval and never Aviation?
