Oh, that’s a good way to get them to ring the bell. I tried making them ring the bell other ways, but they never do. Uber Eats has a feature where they need to get a code from you to prove they handed you the food. I had several drivers leave the food at the door and then text me, asking me for the code. Fuck off

Is it actually dangerous to run Firefox as root?

I have a few Linux servers at home that I regularly remote into in order to manage, usually logged into KDE Plasma as root. Usually they just have several command line windows and a file manager open (I personally just find it more convenient to use the command line from a remote desktop instead of directly SSH-ing into the...

Anticorp ,

It’s about as dangerous as using IE in the old days, or Edge in administrator mode.

Anticorp ,

Cancel and demand a refund. Also tell them that they’re poop faces and have poop for faces.

8 was a tragedy of Titanic proportions.

I don’t think you need the “what if” parts

Did you not see the sign Bernie Sanders printed from Twitter and brought into Congress? You gotta print things large when you print them to make a point!

Leather needs to be maintained (oiled or polished), even if you’re not wearing them.

Anticorp ,

Sounds pretty good if you ask me.

Anticorp ,

And that their professionalism is so low they’re comfortable dropping f bombs in texts right after lying.

Anticorp ,

Stop using Facebook products.

Anticorp ,

Unlimited? F’realz?

Anticorp ,

Then it’s not unlimited and I’d rather just know how much time I can take off, than wondering if I’m skirting the limits.

Anticorp ,

Most jobs aren’t going to do that. They can technically fire you whenever they want, since it’s considered at-will employment, but the cost of finding and training a replacement usually lends some stability, even for low-level jobs.

Anticorp ,

It’s completely dependent on the job, and that’s a problem. Good jobs offer ample time off, bad jobs offer the bare legal minimum. Unfortunately the legal minimum is really oppressive and causes a lot of people to go into work sick, getting everyone else sick in the process.

Anticorp ,

I get it. I have friends who won’t use anything, so we’re stuck using basic SMS to text message between iOS and Android. It’s annoying. I hate the ease at which Facebook rolled out messenger and gained mass appeal. It means that people aren’t thinking critically about what they’re doing.

Anticorp ,

You and I have very different standards for how we speak to our bosses then.

Anticorp ,

Wow, I can’t believe I never put that together before.

I guess it depends on where the beach house is located. I stayed at a beach house in San Diego for a week once in my 20’s, and it was fucking amazing! That was one of the most fun weeks of my entire life. The short 2’ wall in-between the beach and the house kept all of the sand out, and there weren’t any seagulls. We sat on the porch drinking beer, BBQing, and inviting people who walked past to join us. It was paradise.

I don’t think anyone has ever considered waiting tables to be unskilled labor. It takes a lot of different skills to be a waiter, and it’s an in-demand job, often highly competitive. Back in college I tried unsuccessfully for years to get a server position at this swanky restaurant that would have meant I’d make $55+k a year, working 12 hours per week in the 90’s. My friend got a job there and was basically rich, working less than half the week.

I’m sorry that happened to you. Hopefully you’re doing better now.

Anticorp ,

Because we have actual torches too. You guys don’t have actual soccers to get confused by. Given the right context we can figure out when you mean flashlight, but said torch.

Anticorp ,

Right, with modern context we can figure it out pretty quickly, after we learn that the term torch is used for flashlight. The first time I saw it i thought they were talking about a cigarette lighter

“Ad enabled”

Anticorp ,

My TV is connected to the Internet and doesn’t do this. There’s a setting to turn it off.

Anticorp ,

So they recognize that the owner of the product is trying to prevent them from collecting data, and actively try to circumvent the owner’s security measures? This shit should be illegal, and carry a huge fine. You paid for the device, and it’s connected to your network, which you control. I’m sick and tired of corporations thinking it’s totally okay to be straight-up spyware and adware. Some supposedly legitimate companies these days make old-school computer viruses look down right respectful.

Anticorp ,

I have an LG OLED too. There’s a setting for recommended content, or something like that. I turned anything off that looked like it meant ads or tracking.

I let some Mormons come in once when I was in my early 20’s because I wanted to confirm some things I had heard about their religion that they usually don’t share with outsiders. We talked for about an hour and then I asked them to leave. They came back the next day with their leader, and we talked some more. Then they came back the next day with their leader, and his leader! At that point I just told them point blank that it was nice talking to them, but I’m never converting to Mormonism, so stop coming back. To their credit, they said okay and left. It was an interesting experience.

Anticorp ,

Mormons seem to walk the walk a lot more than other religions I’ve been exposed to. They generally live by the rules they espouse, and they have a robust support network for their members, including things like discount grocery stores. It’s not for me, but as religious people go, they seem pretty okay.

Anticorp ,

That’s too bad. Apparently their holo lens was really good. But pricing it at $4000 meant most people weren’t interested.

Anticorp ,

Was this spontaneous? What kind of wacky, awesome, gym is this?!

Anticorp ,

Nobody’s afraid of them. This article created its own problem to complain about.

Anticorp ,

Nope!

Anticorp ,

Meta can’t even keep Facebook or Instagram functional. They get worse with literally every single update. New things are broken every time I visit. They need to take care of what they have, not go looking for other things to fucking ruin. Stupid-ass anti-trust pig dogs.

Anticorp ,

Right… because Facebook has never bought out or destroyed competitive platforms.

Anticorp ,

It’s hard to get someone to understand that which they’re paid to not understand. Seems there’s all kinds of Facebook shills up in this thread.

Edit: oh, and would you look at that? Right out of the gate with the exploit stage in full effect .“Threads” has been an internet term for these forum discussions for as long as the internet has been around, but now zuckerfuck wants it all to himself. Now a billion upon billion different forum posts are going to inadvertently mention his stupid-ass platform.

Anticorp ,

I’m thinking it’s a really bad neighborhood. Or maybe there’s a literal jungle out there and tigers will get ya.

My wife makes macha tea with just water. It’s not very tasty.

Anticorp ,

I bought her the best macha I could find. I’m just not a fan of the way it tastes. She drinks it, so she seems to like it just fine.

Anticorp ,

Just kidding around.

Anticorp ,

She entered that room at the end of Enter the Dragon.

If you’re a senior engineer, then you should have a team of juniors doing most of the coding. Your job is to architect, peer review, meet with stakeholders, etc… At least that has been my experience. Unless you are on one of those small teams with all senior engineers and then you have to do all of the above, and the coding too. I’ve had that experience as well.

Anticorp ,

Why are you using Windows for BG3? I’ve been using Pop!_OS and it runs perfectly.

Anticorp ,

Nor do you want them. Windows 10 was pretty amazing when it was released, but now it’s essentially just adware and spyware. They’ve added no new features for the benefit of the consumer, and have added thousands of changes for their snooping and ad-serving.

Anticorp ,

We already saw that with nothing more than two words. Trump started the “fake news” craze, and now 33% of Americans dismiss anything that contradicts their views as fake news, without giving it any thought or evaluation. If a catch phrase is that powerful, imagine how much more powerful video and photography will be. Even in 2019 there was a deep fake floating around of Biden with a Gene Simmons tongue, licking his lips, and I personally know several people who thought it was real.

Anticorp ,

It’s really disgusting. It was a great platform for keeping in touch with long distance friends and family. If you kept your friends list trimmed to people you know, then it was actually a really fun platform. Now it’s like all the worst parts of corporate internet all glommed together on a single site. I see maybe 1-2 of my actual friend’s posts, and the rest is all absolute crap. Hundreds of billions of dollars wasn’t enough for zuck? Nope! He just had to go and squeeze every last cent out of the site, even if it meant burning it to the ground. It’s not even worth visiting anymore. I was still visiting to see my memories, but now he’s slowly breaking that functionality too. Congratulations Facebook, you’re awful.

Anticorp ,

I didn’t say they don’t, I said it’s difficult for people who don’t know how. You have to spend time on education when you go vegan.
