Smallest I know of is Lyle, Minnesota (population of 573). The only reason I know that is because I added all of the buildings there to OpenStreetMap - before and after photo on Mastodon.

Can you tell excel sheets which were created using a pirated version of MS Office?

My friend works for a company which requires her to use Microsoft specific application, she didn’t really want to switch to Win 11 and choose to just use Wine Linux package and install a 2016 version of MS office on her Linux laptop. That’s all well and good, but this company she is working for servers other clients at...

I’m in the EU as well and am working for a company in the USA. They make us use our own computers for work - which includes installing time tracking software.

I am actively trying to get out of the company and do not recommend working for a company that makes you use your own device. Since they are only registered in the USA, I have no legal protection from the EU and my country of residence.

Sorry for the tangent, I just think it’s important for others to see as well.

I’m living in the EU and work remotely for a US based company.

I took the job as my I was unemployed. My contract came to an end at my previous company and they weren’t renewing any contracts unfortunately.

This job I’m working now pays $15.50 an hour and they are super strict (micromanagement on a whole other level) about what we do during that time. I posted about it here.

Currently trying to leave. I’ve got a side gig but it’s not bringing in enough to leave this job yet.

governorkeagan ,

I’ve been doing just enough to not raise any flags over the past month or so. A lot of my energy has gone into job hunting and growing my business

governorkeagan ,

I’ve had the same when using a VPN on my PC. Have a look at libredirect, that would probably help with this issue.

governorkeagan ,

I think it’s allowed on paid business accounts

If anyone has any idea on how to explain generative AI to someone from the 1700s, let me know. Maybe we can try explain my job then.

governorkeagan ,

What’s the reason behind not being allowed to laminate it? Asking as a non American

governorkeagan ,

Makes sense, thanks!

governorkeagan OP ,

That would be hilarious 😂

governorkeagan OP ,

I made a post on !ireland to ask the community. I’m not a mod or anything so I don’t want to be making big decisions like this myself, ideally we can get the whole community to move

I find the chaffing to be really bad when it’s hot. Cycling shorts help a lot with that for me. Having said that, I will ride a city bike during summer and wear normal shorts.

governorkeagan ,

Tags for posts would be great!

I’d love to see more country specific instances.

Planning on moving over from Windows 10 to Linux for my Personal Work Station. Can't decide which OS I should switch to.

Windows has been a thorn in my side for years. But ever since I started moved to Linux on my Laptop and swapping my professional software to a cross platform alternative, I’ve been dreaming on removing it from my SSD....

I’m using EndeavourOS and I use DaVinci Resolve. The only issue I’ve had is a strange bug in DaVinci 18.6.x where my footage will start flickering after a few minutes.

I shoot in SLOG3. The flickering looks like my colour grade flashing on and off for a frame or two. It will persist until I turn off all of my colour nodes, save and quit, open Resolve again, and turn on the nodes again.

I haven’t figured out what is causing it yet.

governorkeagan ,

EndeavourOS has been rock solid for me as well!

I’ve installed it both ways. When installing via AUR you will need to download the zip from black magic. The AUR will look at your downloads folder and use the zip as the installer.

Updating is very similar to Windows. You’ll still need to download the new version as a zip and then install it again.

I don’t use fusion too often since my GPU is a little underpowered but I’ve not noticed any worse performance. If anything it’s been the same or better across the board.

governorkeagan OP ,

That looks quite interesting! Unfortunately they only have a limited selection in the UK - I didn’t find an EU store on my phone.

governorkeagan OP ,

That looks brilliant, thank you! Any particular product that you recommend?

governorkeagan OP ,

I work inside all day at the moment (I work fully remote). If I don’t use a moisturiser my skin will get very dry and flakey. During summer I cycle quite a bit so the perspiration can cause some breakouts.

governorkeagan OP ,

I would’ve thought it would leave you feeling sticky?

governorkeagan OP ,

We’ve got loads here in Ireland

governorkeagan ,

Can’t beat a good gin and tonic on a hot summer’s day.

governorkeagan ,

WTF?

governorkeagan ,

To everyone complaining about DDG, what are you using? I’ve been using DDG for years now and it’s been fine for me. I have also been testing out StartPage.

governorkeagan ,

This thread has some people discussing how they feel it isn’t great compared to others.

governorkeagan ,

Are you a native English speaker in an English speaking country looking for English pages?

That is correct. I’ve not experienced the issue you’re facing since I don’t often search DDG in my second language but I’ve heard of people having the issue you mentioned.

governorkeagan ,

I’ve been using it for about 4/5 months and it’s been rock solid for me.

governorkeagan ,

I haven’t noticed any major differences between btrfs and ext4. Having said that, I mostly only play one game on Steam - Red Dead Redemption 2

Work has been a pain and got me working basically 7 days a week to get my hours in. If not I won’t have enough for rent.

I do have a job interview tomorrow which I’m really hoping I get. It’ll be a lot less stressful and the pay should be better.

Edit:

Just had the first of two interviews. Felt like it went well, just waiting for feedback as to whether or not I am going to the second round.

Edit 2: Not sure if anyone is going to read this but I just got the email to say I didn’t progress to the next round.

governorkeagan ,

Thank you! I will update my comment after the interview and once I know more.

I use Instagram mainly for business purposes. I do have a personal account that I occasionally use.

My FB account is deactivated (in theory), the only reason I haven’t closed it yet is because Meta still hasn’t sent me my data that I requested. I don’t want them to use that against me.

governorkeagan OP ,

I’ve tried with a couple different servers but no luck (Proton VPN). I don’t necessarily need the VPN to browse here but I occasionally have it left on from other sites.

governorkeagan OP ,

I might be wrong but I think the site is geo blocked. I’ve sent links to family that live outside of the country and they weren’t able to open them.

governorkeagan OP ,

Adverts.ie

governorkeagan OP ,

My VPN server is located in the same country as the site (Ireland)

governorkeagan OP ,

Took a screenshot and rejected straight away.

governorkeagan OP ,

I pay for it - family plan. The screen after this is about where I want my ads shown in the app…a paying customer shouldn’t be seeing ads.

governorkeagan OP ,

I’m using Proton Mail as my main email. They have an option for forwarding emails from Gmail/Outlook to Proton. I just haven’t done it yet because I almost never use Outlook

governorkeagan ,

I’m reading this in 2025 /s

governorkeagan ,

I’ve been waiting for this! Downloading now, work can wait for me to tinker a little

governorkeagan ,

Same here. Works great! I had to switch back to X11 because the time tracking software my company uses doesn’t want to work with Wayland for some reason - it did previously

governorkeagan ,

I haven’t looked at too deeply yet. I’ll have a look on the weekend.
