As a childless asocial workaholic with some degree of toxicity that LinkedIn bastard probably dream of, my performance heavily depended on the importance of the task. WFH let me be more passionate about some projects and papers that I used all benefits of cutting commute, was way less distracted and motivated. But bullshit paperwork, letters, chats and reports lagged even further behind than they did in the office, right up to the deadline. Sometimes because I did the work itself instead and no one looked over my shoulder.

For me RTOing into a nearly-empty building in the off-season when most take vacations was the most dumb idea, and since it was a typical rule-for-thee, I had almost none supervison, was arriving late, leaving early and put a shit ton of hours into various MMOs. The complete opposite to what I did in a brief moments of quarantine. Look, jerks, you paid me to level my chars, that's what you wanted?

I think like in a trust-based environment clocking in is unnecessary and various bosses over time did get it, I payed back by reporting stuff myself so they were sure I'm on it at any given time. Like we are actually a team of some sort, they do their stuff, I do mine, we pass things to each other etc. The others were completely disconnected from empoyees and to compensate their inability to trust, got high on controlling shit, were sending down teamworking events, talking about being a family or other sectarian career manager bullshit, relied on and encouraged snitching on each other. These were the positions I nailed down to me clocking out and stop giving a fuck, before eventually leaving.

And for coworkers: they either do their work, or leave it to others, and I rarely GAF about other characteristics. The high stress environment of labor is not where I prefer to socialise, nor I'm in the mood to. I crave work-related communications that makes all objectives clear and obvious, work-related stories I can learn from, you know, the stuff I came here for, and not a social club with gossips, drama and all that. If I'm given 2hrs+ from not riding to your building, I can have two socializations and a half if I want to. The exhaustion it causes not helps but prevents me from going out with friends, and I'm double pissed that some bosses make an act like that's better for their workers while not giving them any agency and doing it solely for themselves.

Rant: over.

To prove your point no original nazi is needed, there was that nazi rally recordings of which are avaliable.

When USA government took a wind of their future involvement in this war, they found that adoring fans of Hitler aren't what you'd like to gain popularity at home while sending boys to Europe to catch the fucker. I don't know the morals of politicians who took steps to tone down the Hitler-fandom, but the first layer of this onion is that - it was against the geological goals of the US - to enable that strain of nazism - at the time. Were they allowing the same populist mythology about the US to prevail, did american soldiers thought themselves superior to others, with their democracy, founding fathers, ammendments? Probably. But the original sin was erased in a public memory as the Axis-ov-Evil felt, the Cold War started and the US, especially, saw a boom in it's prosperity.

But to counter your pov, I'd argue, there aren't particular 'people like that', but social conditions of frustrated masses gullible enough to follow populists adressing their emotions, establishing their past as great and promising the return to that. These notions are just copycats of one another. The healthier the society the less we see the monsters constructed and enabled by it's failures. There was some quote of Stephen (I created but abandoned my bluesky) King that in order to kill you'd need to have a bullet in your heart, and I believe that most deranged shooters who went on a probably suicidal killing spree against their own kind didn't have that bullet initially, but they've been conditioned by the times like late Wheimar Republic, late Soviet state, and, probably, late America, if it won't get of these rails.

Whatever. I want to eat your liver.

VM Windows. Downsides: obvious. Upsides: you can give it a funny name, like, Mousesoft Cheesedoughs Disney-bution.

In the context of Lemmy shitpost none is required.

In the context of the episode the guy in red constantly switched back and forth between being on it with the rebels and giving up them and himself once confronted. Him being so unsure of himself and undecided were sad to see.

To top that feeling and make it a shitpost, I highlighted two sets of boobs that were shown in the same episode in accord and as a satire to what TV back then seen as possible: vulgarly displayed manboobs and sexualized but still covered womanboobs.

And then I highlighted Stanley who had no gender dysphoria, right, but who at this point in his character's life didn't even start to process where he trully belongs: in the conformity he was put in and genuinely hates and fails at, or the risky promise of feeling worthy and somehow autonomous even if it'd take his life a second later. He's mostly driven by sudden impulses and learnt fears in this episode, but occasionally do something right and cheers himself at that.

Lexx (this series\anthology) is not serious at all. And I don't equate him to anyone experiencing this condition. I found this whole screencap weird and put in some layers of meanings qualifying it as a random shitpost.

It's weird foot soldiers kept killing each other.

It's not weird we had 'frag' as a verb from the Vietnam war.

They actually do.

You forgot to put the sauce in, that's why you thought Buldak is not a big deal.

In a sense, yes, but I feel like calling it a war gives some additional credit to Israel while what they do is an one-directional extermination campaign.

Holy fucking molly.

Military-boos being sweating. I can almost sniff that. Let them get overheated.

I mean, the LLM thing has a proper field for deployment - it can handle the translation of articles that just don't exist in your language. But it should be a button a person clicks with their consent, not an article they get by default, not a content they get signed by the Wikipedia itself. Nowadays, it's done by browsers themselves and their extensions.

Don't be. Although there are millions of corpses behind each WW2 joke, getting it means you are personally aware of that, and it means something. 'Those who don't know shit about the past struggles are to reiterate them' and all that.

I'm still puzzled by the idea of what mess this war was if at times you had someone still not clearly identifiable, but that close you can do a sheboleth check on them, and that at any moment you or the other could be shot dead.

Also, the current conflict of Russia vs Ukraine seems to invent ukrainian 'паляница' as a check, but as I had no connection to actual ukrainians and their UAF, I can't say if that's not entirely localized to the internet.

There are still people here who say "Oh just look at the hands!"

I agree with you and I want to add that hands are very difficult even for artists, probably more than the whole body anatomy, thus hands studies are pretty popular with the beginners to nail natural angles, proportions etc. GenAI companies probably did just that - fed their models thousands of hands pictures - so it'd 'learn' how to draw (copy) them. I find this kinda funny.

Do you have a link to that?

I suppose there are some OS-typical settings for basic things and the way MIUI manages them stirs the Connect's dev wrong, this app doesn't get right info or have a wprkarpund to work with it. Idk.

I'd honestly like to have an e-ink monitor because I do a lot of coding and writing, without 60hz, just like e-book with speedy updates over empty space. It can be a secondary one dedicated to just these tasks. But the lack of demand makes it too exclusive for my pocket.

Israel has a very successful gamble in showing they are the white man's key to the Middle East. For as long as no one wills to find another ally in the region, Israel oversells itself as a one. And as any other bad example of putting all eggs in one basket, Israel felt the dependency other states have in it, and now tests it, tests it, tests it with no negative response.

Palestine and Gaza are just them dipping their toes to know, if they can get scots-free from shooting weak HAMAS and civs and get into a real war Netanyahu's cabinet already planning. It's 2025 and in the coming years we'd see even more violence from that beloved partner if no one pulls the stop lever.

There are, like, a lot of arrows pointing in that direction but not yet connecting. I assume I can draw the missing part myself. But yep, the solid and direct link could've made wonders, but I'm pretty pessimistic about getting it until FSB archives get open to the public, probably after this regime's critical malfunction. That's not even the first question I'd like to research there if that happens.

I still prefer to keep only work communications and mild content there. Some russian expats reported border guards checked their sub list in TG specifically, so I pumped it up with all Z channels in mute mode, I leave reactions there if that matters anyhow to create myself a SFW persona. As long as it doesn't matters if it tracks my geoloc, I think it's better to have it because not having it makes you deviant and easy to point out.

I love Russia and it's precious president Vladimyr Putin, who shares many qualities with the God-Emperor but one: he's still alive.
