  • /b/ is just logspammers and porn now.

    And the 15 min wait to post anything has noticeably slowed down any sort of discussion. Posts on /b/ can last for up to a week now because of it

  • did they actually do layoffs? I think where i am a lot of the shops just let the staff levels atrophy naturally down to the level where they wanted them.

    you must have scrolled a long way to get to a 7 month old post

  • Me and my GF both agree that Beatles songs are fantastic... when performed by people who aren't the Beatles.

    I enjoyed the music in the film "Yesterday (2019)" muuuuuch more than i enjoyed the original versions.

    Maybe it's the 60s style of it, idk. I just don't really get along with it

  • It's not hers. it's one of my computers that i am deploying to her house for her and her family to use.

    It's technichally for my neice but the rest of the family all also have access.

    no one in that household has expressed a specific preference of operating system. other than my brother in law texting me to tell me one of the old games he tried to install doesnt work (i did promptly offer to "make it work" but he declined).

    I have no problem with them installing windows on it if thats what they want. they wont be coming to me for technical support if they do though.

  • i installed linux mint on my sisters household PC last week.

    my dad did his usual grumblings about "it should be windows" and i just said "i've been out of the windows ecosystem completely for the last 5 years and partially for another 3 years beyond that. i no longer provide support for windows, if you want them to have windows you need to support it"

    he went quiet after that.

  • yep, a lot of apps are just repackaged chrome running a web page.

    which begs the question to companies that require use of the app instead of just having a working website i can use on my copy of chrome/firefox that's already on my phone...

    why do you need hardware access to my device?

  • if you're vaguely interested in and understand basic programming you could get into software QA.

    it's fairly easy to get into in my experience, you're generally not bombarded with ludicrous CS questions at interview and you can move into other software roles later if you wish.

    confident coders in QA are like gold dust imo.

    That said the tech job market is in kind of a slump atm though so do your research
