Another thing I just ran into, if I'm linked to the on-instance version of a thread on an instance other than my home, it says I need to log in or register to comment. How do I switch to the version of that same post as seen from my home instance? I wouldn't need to register a separate account because I see a lot of off-instance posts on my home feed. Perplexing.
In-line translation features for non-English communities (in my case) would be very helpful and would exceed Reddit functionality, which is something I think Lemmy should strive toward
I've never seen a Buc-ees but I have read they are really strict, like look at your phone once and you're fired on the spot, so maybe the exchange for the higher pay is participation in a workplace culture beyond the normal levels of controlling.
Il dunno, as someone with some convenience store work in their past I am curious if anyone has first hand experience?
Tangentially, as an apartment dweller I would love to have a weatherproofed shed that I could store reusable materials in and work on projects. Obviously saving cardboard and other light, flattenable materials isn't much of a problem but there are definitely things I would keep in my shed like scrap lumber and metal and projects that would take place in my shed that I'd never attempt indoors.
I used to rent a room from a private homeowner who was like minded and properly using the garage/shed space was so... edifying. Helped us get a lot of home repair projects done that would have required a contractor otherwise. Unfortunate that the apartment life leads to such waste and inefficency.
Sometimes when I've found new communities on non local instances I'm unable to subscribe directly and I get a screen where it asks me what instance I'm subscribing from and when I click the only suggestion "lemmy.world" it doesn't recognize it as valid. I know you can subscribe to these communities in distant instances by using the local search bar with an exclamation point in front of it but it's a convoluted process and could be streamlined.
On the mobile website when I tap the link into a post, read it and then hit the back button, I often end up on the page before the one I clicked into the link from, so like, I have to scroll to the bottom of the page and hit next and scroll down again to see the same link I originally clicked. Sometimes when this happens the "subscribed/local/all" and "new/hot/controversial" dialogs are reset as well and I've lost my spot in the feed entirely.
This doesn't emulate the presumed intended functionality of reddit feeds where if you hit back you are at the exact spot in the feed where you clicked the original link.
Maybe less well informed days would be a better way to put it; before we had instant news of every bad thing happening, we lived in a kind of blissful ignorance.
Wasn't uncensored violent footage of, for instance, the Vietnam War or civil rights conflicts readily broadcast on national news in the 60s? This was always my impression of the previous era as someone who graduated high school in the relatively sanitized 90s.
Retail, and to my knowledge among all my coworkers we have used zero digits of pi.
When I code in C++ I use 15 digits of pi after the decimal point (double float) but I have only rarely coded for money and have never used pi for those work products, so again, zero digits on the clock.
Ditto for restaurant work, although 2 decimal points would be more than enough if I needed the volume of a cake or other round food.
Waterpiks are great but not really a substitute for flossing
