What are some modern bullshit jobs?

Jump

  • Managers of people can be good.

    Managers of managers are almost always useless.

    • So how much "bad" debt are you in?

    Jump

  • I'm in the exact same boat, to the letter. It's been great watching interest rates and inflation eliminate 60% of my home buying power in the last year.

    • A better Revanced

    Jump

  • It's a one-time sync though. If I want history from what I watched on my desktop today I have to resync.

    • A better Revanced

    Jump

  • ReVanced taps into my history with microg. When I watch stuff on desktop with Firefox and uBlock Origin, I want those videos to show as watched on my phone when I open ReVanced so I don't get recommended the same stuff. That works.

    GrayJay can't do this. It's not better. It's a good idea, but it's a side grade.

    • Roblox tells employees they have to come to office three days a week or take severance package

    Jump

  • Because McKinsey wouldn't want to follow that advice themselves. They want their analysts in the office where their MBA managers can micro-manage them and can make sure that they work 12-15 hours a day.

    • Do you know of any obscure useful websites?

    Jump

  • privacyguides.org has a ton of awesome tips on how to navigate technology these days without becoming a walking data point for everything you have contact with.

  • It's not browser specific.

    • Spotify re-invented the radio

    Jump

  • I do. Still need to configure those too. Don't get me wrong it's not that bad, but there was a world 5 or so years ago where the streaming platforms were just easier for the cost. Not anymore.

    • Spotify re-invented the radio

    Jump

  • Literally the opposite. Pirating takes time, effort, resources, and I lose access to "everything" - I only get what I take the time to download and store.

    If a product I pay for provides a great service, I'll keep using it. It's worth the money for excellent user experience and convenience. It's when they keep upping the price while reducing the features or content that bothers me, and that's when I'd rather spend the time pirating than paying them for a worse product.

    • YouTube cracking on ad blockers.

    Jump

  • Pihole has never blocked YouTube ads, they serve them from the same domain.

    • Fetterman: America ‘not sending their best and brightest’ to Congress

    Jump

  • Our political system is excellent in weeding out almost anyone who genuinely wants to make a difference and leaving you with the people who are simply the most personally ambitious.

  • Wait is that a Lemmy instance? Why is it opening in my browser instead of in my Lemmy app?

    • Samsung joins Google in RCS shaming Apple

    Jump

  • Uh... Apple has the iPhone. That's all they have. They make the iPhone. One phone. What other phone do that have?
