Jesus, 10Gbps!? I’m paying $90 for “gigaspeed” AT&T fiber. But, I’m luckier than most, I have AT&T fiber and Metronet as fiber providers, as well as Spectrum and T-Mobile (but yuck to using 5G as my primary source of internet).

I have a story, so I get wanting great video quality and why people get remuxes, but I have a friend who is borderline legally blind. His vision is so poor that he has to wear contacts and glasses at the same time. He has to get the remux version of things and complains about minor encoding artificacts from versions of things with smaller file sizes that I feel wouldn’t bother 99.9% of the population. Hell years ago, before he got an updated prescription, he was driving and he mentioned how bad his vision was getting and I asked him if he could read the license plate for the car stopped in front of us and he laughed and said no. Anyway, I feel like the extra quality is wasted on him. He’s like an audiophile who is hard of hearing. I just find this funny and wanted to share.

National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation and A Christmas Story

Sadly this isn’t the first time. Years ago I read a story about a man who took his mother to get an MRI. While he was there his gun went off and killed her.

“It’s backordered” or “It’s on backorder.”

I say “six oh five,” but with numbers, I say “zero” or “oh.”

In 'merica, we love to grab the door and shake it or look through the 2 inch gap to check if it’s occupied 🇺🇲

The mega travel center in the South Eastern US, called Buc-ee’s, does have these indicators. However the last time my family was there, my wife encountered a Karen who was concerned she couldn’t tell which stalls were open and my wife pointed out the red occupied/green unoccupied indicator on the locks and she was like, “No, I don’t know, I’ll wait for someone to leave.”

I think the main take away is that this applies to most, if not all, publicly traded companies?

Do you mean communities? An instance is a server, like lemmy.world or lemmy.today.

If so, yes, I see interesting trending communities and once I go there, it’s empty. At least say hi or something, people!

I’m in the same damn boat 😅

One thing to keep in mind is that they’re young and have fewer responsibilities than Millennials and Xers and can afford to float between jobs. I’m not saying all GenZers, but there are ones that still get some form of assistance from their parents and thereby have a safety net. As they age and start families, they may be less inclined to do so.

Also, maybe they’re not being paid enough to want to stay and feel they can leverage the experience at your workplace to get a better paying position elsewhere.

Just my thoughts, I’m no expert.

Vulva

It’s Apple trying to squeeze the last drop from the Lightning connector before its gone.

If it wasn’t going bald after high school or turning 30, it had to be when I turned 36 since I realized I could have pressed a magic reset button and relived my first 18 years of life over again within that time.

IDK because they rock. I love mine. I’m even cool with the water being cold.

Yup, Republicans need dumb breeders to prop their party up. They’re banning critical thinking.

At this point, they can completely fuck off because I have old.lemmy.world now

The fly sees it and immediately thinks, “This would be a good place to start a family.”
