...holy crap, same. This makes me uncomfortable.

$20 one time for a well developed app that I use multiple hours a day is inexpensive.

I pay almost as much to multiple streaming services PER MONTH for a shitty experience and sometimes not a completely ad-free experience.

Anyway, in all honesty I chose the $1.99/mo because it gives the dev $24/yr into perpetuity. I also donate to instances. I also use Connect and Jerboa and Liftoff. It's whatever.

Or for any major treatment or injuries you have to watch 6 ads first, if you bleed out before they're done, so be it.

Brainfuck or Chef are pretty awesome.

US here. Companies I work for use Teams, Zoom, Outlook, WebEx, RingCentral, GChat for comms.

Personally among friends and family, we use Signal.

Nobody I know uses WhatsApp or even has it installed.

I hope it all burns down.

As far as I know, Subscriber count is specific to your instance and not aggregated.

It's one pixel per user per timeframe, not one pixel per timeframe - if that makes sense.

Outside of that, it's likely timestamped to the milliseconds on the server side, so it'd be pretty rare for two users to hit the exact same pixel at the same time and millisecond (or fractional millisecond). And even if, the server would still process one first, not both at the same time.

For some larger coordinations, there are bots that one can use to achieve swaths of changes very close together.

That's some bullshit right there. Thanks for capturing it.

The system is down.

WinAmp, really kicks the llamas ass

Is it possible it is just the wrong jobs?

I've worked some web dev jobs that made me hate life and want to quit. I've since churned through many jobs and finally found gigs that I actually enjoy, that pay well, that give me ample time off and legit work-life balance.

I also live relatively rural, read: paid a nearby ISP to run fiber to my home.

You can export them from Chrome and import them to Firefox.

Same. A lot of internal web apps I've used only work on chromium browsers.

That said, I'd recommend checking out DuckDuckGo browser before Brave.

I prefer leekspin.com

I'm just bummed the single bean isn't real. I'd totally buy it.

I had a job that confronted me about why I went yellow (idle) mid-day as I was expected to be online and active during core hours.

I had gone downstairs to make some lunch.

I quit that job.

I put electrical tape over all of them. They're unnecessary, they're annoying.

I tried my best to build a new computer without any LEDs and I couldn't. So now I just keep a piece of cardboard in front of my glass case side so I don't have to look at that bullshit.

Yeah, yeah, it probably causes it to run hotter. I'll take a little more heat, less performance, and possibly shorter overall component life over having to deal with those stupid lights.

Dark theme gives me a massive headache after just 5-10 minutes and I think it's because the text is fuzzier to me. I'm not sure if it is astigmatism related?

Weird thing is that AMOLED dark on my phone doesn't bother me the same way.

Also colors in dark mode when I'm coding seem to blend together more so I am not as quick at picking up visual cues.
