  • Yeah we believe you. But where do you store them?

    • Does the US have zero employee protection laws??

  • You should know that when you want to leave, they will want you to leave too.

    I mean if you're a nice person you'd train someone or make tech transfer, but that doesn't take months... So you being paid slackin around or you leave quite quickly?

    • America's richest 10% are responsible for 40% of its planet-heating pollution, new report finds

  • And a wealth tax for people having more value than like 10 millions (or less actually).

  • What do you even do when you exceed 100 Millions?

    They must be mentally sick in some way "just one mooare billion pleaaase"

    • how is Lemmy going for you?

    Jump

  • Are you planning on some specific communities or "just" a server for anyone to join and use?

  • Same here, so I started an "art" server. We'll see how it fares.

    • Google's Web DRM is Worse than I Thought...

    Jump

  • And poured every browser and their sister into it just to make the whole selection process shitty.

    • What are some interesting email newsletters to subscribe to?

  • Excellent GG!!

    • The back-to-office backfire: Companies ending WFH perks lose out on top talent, who view flexible work as equivalent to an 8% raise

    Jump

  • Jokes are on them, I'm old but I still quit when they tried to force (illegally, we had at least 2 days@home by contract) us back 4 days/w in the noisy open space.

    Got flexible home office at my new job ("must" be at the office Tuesdays, everything else is to your convenience) and cherry on the cake a 14.6% raise!

    • Where in history is the reference point of modern week day countdown? [SOLVED]

    Jump

  • And every 400 year we don't add the extra day, except every 2000 year when we do it anyway.

    • Lemmy is more left leaning because the rights popularity seen on other social media are driven by bots that are not here.

  • "as a black man"

    • Do you think that in the future, body-cameras on people will become as common as dash-cameras on cars?

    Jump

  • The point was that in the future it will be easy to set up surveillance cameras

  • Today it might be as much a hassle as to assemble a micro computer in the eighties, but I bet it will be one as easy as filming with your mobile phone in the future.

  • You should check out Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson. It takes it a bit further ...

    • Do you prefer PC or laptop?

    Jump

  • Apparently the "older" ones like T480 had crappy screens and it changed with, tada! , the T490 generation q. I'm quite happy with mine to be honest. I got a french keyboard, thinking about getting the US one with that Big return key :-D but I'm curious about what your "retrofitted classic keyboard" is (it appears it is quite simple to change the keyboard on ThinkPad)?

    • Do you prefer PC or laptop?

    Jump

  • Excluding GPU extensive operations a used ThinkPad is so good and cheap it's incredible.

    Bought a T490 16GB 512GB for 260€ ... I think my desktop will be used less and less ...

    • Every generation has some product/ingredient that they didn’t know was dangerous at the time: tobacco, lead, asbestos, etc. What is that item for this generation?

    Jump

  • We'll surely invent something even worse ;-)

  • Personally I hate induction, or more the implementation I have been exposed to of it, no physical buttons and 1 drop of water will zero out everything :-/
