That’s a wild take.
I think you have it the wrong way around: the movies are for everyone, the comics are for the super fans. Not much more to it than that, but getting this worked up about a fictional universe is not healthy.
Also, watch your slurs, most people don’t like ableism around these parts.
I really appreciate it when colleagues check in right before a meeting via chat just to make sure at least one person has something they actually need to talk about. If not, we skip it and go back to our work. Some teams do this as a habit, others meet anyway just to shoot the shit if there’s nothing work-related to discuss. My team is the former, thankfully.
Nope, you’ve described it the way I understand it. That’s the only way to get the draft back, which almost never works for me. I’m pretty much never able to find the original post, especially after an app crash. So when I come back to the app and see that recovery message, I’m pissed because it tells me the text is saved but it really isn’t if I can’t find it.
I posted about this a month ago, hopefully the devs will catch on that we really need a drafts folder or something.
Your ignorance is genuinely terrifying to me. I opened this post because your question is mostly legit. I have an undergrad and a masters degree, and while I don’t regret getting them, I will be in debt for the rest of my life. There are a lot of institutional and structural issues with higher education in the US, but most of them boil down to it being a profit business and not strictly a knowledge business. That fact has a lot of knock-on effects, many of which aren’t super obvious unless you’re entrenched in academia. But importantly, that doesn’t mean the knowledge isn’t still valuable or worthwhile.
Your comment might as well be an advertisement for why higher education (or really any education) is critically important for a functional society. You’re so fundamentally wrong about all of it, and it sure seems like you’re stubbornly unwilling to learn about the nature of reality, so I don’t think college would be a good fit for you.
This is a great question, I’ll be watching the replies. I had a similar thought this morning as I was checking how my very humble ETF investments were looking, and I remembered that NVIDIA is a chunk of one of them…
I don’t have much disposable income to invest, but I like to put a little bit in non-fossil fuel ETFs, and I feel like they’ll get super risky once the bubble pops (which I agree, it will).
Yeah, even with little issue like this, Voyager is still the best Lemmy app out there imo, but there are bugs/quirks like this that are super annoying.
No, definitely not. It happens to me constantly, and is super frustrating. I’ve posted about it a couple times, and it seems to consistently bother a lot of people. I still haven’t found the time to search for a GitHub board or better way to put this in front of the devs, but it happens to me multiple times a day.
I’m not a dev, but I work with a lot of them, and I do a fair amount of bug testing and reporting for them. Devs do so much: they usually deploy and maintain the infrastructure (servers, virtual machines, databases etc.) upon which they build stuff, they write code in a bunch of different languages, connect things up to external APIs to add more functionality, process and combine datasets to use in the things they build, and plan/track all of that wok as granularly as possible using a variety of project management tools like GitHub or Jira.
Actually writing code from scratch is probably only 15 or 20% of what they do, at least at my relatively small company. And that’s usually spread out among a few different devs who have their own specialities.
I feel this. A few weeks ago I was having problems with the headset I normally use for meetings, so I had to dial into the call on my phone while still watching the screenshare on my computer. When the meeting was over, I forgot I was still connected to the audio call on my phone, and I made a huge loud sigh followed by “ugggghhhh fuck this shit.” Everyone heard me and cracked up. I passed it off as me cursing out a different technical issue, but the people that knew, knew.
I’ve had a Brother HL-L2300D laser printer since 2021, and I haven’t even needed to replace the starter toner cartridge that came with it. I use it verrrrry lightly and infrequently, but it’s solid and reliable, plug and play. I’m pretty sure the starter toner doesn’t even have nearly the capacity as a new cartridge would, so for light use this thing will basically last forever.
Neighbors at my old apartment had KKK as their network name. They were huge pieces of shit who knew I could hear everything through the walls, so they would have entire conversations about me with slurs every other word. They were also armed, and talked about their guns constantly (again, knowing I could hear everything). Imagine laying in bed at 3am trying to get some sleep before a 7am meeting, and having to listen to two racist assholes literally yell through the walls just to harass me and make sure I couldn’t fall asleep.
Living there was so stressful.
27 - Old enough that my eventual millennia of experiences can still give me the appearance of wisdom and maturity, but young enough to have a body that painlessly does what I want it to.
I would also ask the genie what their answer would be, but like, just out of curiosity, not to try to get one over on them. Don’t fuck with genies.
I thought this community was for raising these kinds of bugs and issues, so I assumed the devs would have an eye out, but that was just my blind assumption. They haven’t responded to either of my posts here. I personally haven’t looked for a GitHub or dev board to open an official issue or anything, but that may be a better route.
Yeah, this really annoys me. I posted about the equivalent problem on iOS a couple months ago, and there were a fair number of people who agreed it’s a pain. Haven’t seen any engagement from devs, but these little unfixed issues are starting to pile up.
Yeah, if I could quickly find the post I was trying to comment on so I could just resume typing or start over if necessary that’d be great. But when I’m in the middle of writing out a comment and the app crashes, if I can’t find the post I was commenting on straight away then my train of thought is gone, and I just close Lemmy for the day out of frustration.
I’m usually commenting between tasks at work, so when the app crashes mid-thought I can’t take the time to deal with it, so my engagement with the content doesn’t happen. Happens probably once a week, so not the worst thing, but enough of a pain to make me do a full post.
No doubt. It being illegal doesn’t mean it wasn’t morally justified and right in most cases. Just means it took more courage and personal risk to do the right thing.
High level leaks of classified material is the first example that comes to mind. The raw Wikileaks data, for example, was widely accessible and easily found by anyone with a quick search, and yet possessing that material was technically illegal, because it was never declassified.
I’m exclusively a very hot side-sleeper, so dialing in my pillow setup has taken decades.
I use three different types of pillows: a real down pillow for my head (this one was expensive, but seriously worth it), a faux down pillow for hugging (keeps its fluffy shape all night), and cotton-filled pillow for between my knees.
The fillings are what matter most to me, and the real down pillow for my head is the most recent and best addition imo. It has made a massive difference to my comfort over the memory foam one I had been using previously. I splurged for a Parachute down pillow because the high quality is immediately obvious, and it’s hands down the best pillow I’ve ever bought.
It’s a wild and ridiculous show. Lots of fun to watch. It’s one of those rare shows that’s led almost entirely by women, and has incredibly raunchy humor.
That’s not how slurs work. That word is a slur, even if your intention isn’t explicitly bigoted. But in the content of your comment, you’re still using it exactly the way a bigot would use it as a slur.
