When I was in the office absolutely, now at home if my power and internet are out I can’t even watch tv.

iamericandre,

As soon as I hit submit on this comment I realized I was holding a tv in my hand that connects to the internet.

I always have a book on my desk. Gotta be prepared

littlecolt,

Or just sit and relax. I feel like people have lost this during my lifetime. Ive never lost the ability to just take a deep breath, lean back, and enjoy some quiet. I mean, if I was WANTING to watch a movie or something, there would be disappointment, but if the reason I can’t is beyond my control, it’s a waste of time to dwell on it and be upset. Right?

Gotta maximize your downtime. It’s in too short a supply as it is

brenticus,

Also handy for taking regular breaks, staying occupied in meetings you don’t need to be in, waiting for your computer to run updates for IT, and giving up at 2pm but not wanting to obviously stop responding to messages!

technicalogical,

At the office they paid, at home I only get an hour before they stop paying and expect me to make up the time later.

dutchkimble,

Is Dolph Danish?

CurlyMoustache,

Worse. He’s swedish

hemko,

Since @CurlyMoustache is norwegian, I’m guessing, that they knew that about Mads already.

I bet @CurlyMoustache is cool, even though they aren’t danish.

Lemme guess: Windows, hunh?

Honytawk,

In windows you can just update the security settings and do anything you want with it.

It is a feature not a bug, that regular non-tech users can’t just go about deleting their System32.

Sanyanov,

I feel like Windows lacks some sort of switch that would clearly identify you as an advanced user allowed to do everything.

May be hidden as a flag in the registry, even.

ftbd,

Isn’t that what admin/root access is for?

Sanyanov,

Yes, and getting one on Windows is…problematic.

In Linux, you type sudo.

vox,
@vox@sopuli.xyz avatar

linux has the same gile ownership system, maybe even less advanced than windows (windows file perms are unnecessarily convoluted)

Cethin,

True, but in Linux is pretty trivial to change the ownership (or just use “sudo” if that’s sufficient. Windows it takes longer to do these things.

grandkaiser, (edited )

chmod in Windows is just as trivial

HelloHotel, (edited )
@HelloHotel@lemmy.world avatar

My only hickup is SElinux, otherwise the permission system on linux is annoying but admin friendly minus stuff like /dev/mem always being denied and libfuse understanding and miscommunicating the risks of the “allow users (with correct permissions) to access another user’s fuse partition” setting. (And its not user privicy, its DOS prevention)

vox, (edited )
@vox@sopuli.xyz avatar

tbf /dev/mem is mapped to physical memory, access to most of which is completely denied by the memory controller in the cpu (while it’s in usermode), no matter rhe access level

vsh,
@vsh@lemm.ee avatar

That would be linux

quantenzitrone, (edited ) in Billy The Kid

I’d argue that the “The” is actually part of the last name.

Similar to medieval last names like with “Henry of Skalitz”, “Sigismund of Luxembourg” where the “of” is afaik part of the last name. Other languages may have translations like “Heinrich von Skalitz”(german) or “Zikmund Lucemburský”(czech).

Blue Cheese is the IPA of cheese. It has a lot of “flavor” which makes you think it’s “good” but… is it? It’s good, but not slap-your-own-mother amazingly life changing. I used to love it, but got tired of being punched in the face, and started to appreciate subtlety way more. Same with beers. I still like an IPA occasionally, if it’s of a higher quality, not just WE FUCKED ONE MILLION HOPS INTO THIS. It’s the same bullshit with “truffles”. Not really that good, thrown onto cheap garbage food to mark it up by $10. Again, the good, real truffles, are actually quite nice (and hard to come by for obvious reasons).

LaSaucisseMasquee,

I think you don’t have proper cheese available.

Gimly,

I don’t find blue cheese so strong. Some are, and they can become too strong if they are a bit old, but they can also be very delicate. There are also way stronger and more in your face cheese than blue cheese.

owen,

Totally agree. Not to mention that blue cheese is typically eaten in small quantities

isthingoneventhis,

I respect your opinion but I hate that you’ve done this to me. I hate IPA (mainly because it’s fucking everywhere now) but love blue cheese.

Boozilla,
@Boozilla@lemmy.world avatar

IPA is a great comparison (and I hate how “IPA” has become synonymous with “beer”). I like blue cheese, but I agree it can quickly overwhelm. I prefer to go easy with it in recipes. For salad dressings I prefer the ones that are toned down a bit.

ElderWendigo, (edited )

The comparison with IPAs is apt. For me an IPA is really only suitable when it balances the flavors of some other food. But, let’s be honest. People aren’t getting IPAs for the hops. They’re getting IPAs for the higher ABV. And, while I love blue cheese I never sit down and just eat it alone like I could disappear a block of aged cheddar. Blue cheese is always better when it balances the flavors of other foods like bacon, dates, cured meats, buffalo wings, cauliflower, salads, etc.

Truffle oil on the other hand might as well be snake oil. Truffle oil is never authentic, it’s just flavored oil. Just give me some damn mushrooms and if truffles aren’t available find another good mushroom and stop trying to make it an oil.

psud,

People get IPAs even when they’re normal strength

ElderWendigo, (edited )

Facetious - adjective treating serious issues with deliberately inappropriate humor; flippant.

That part of the comment was facetious.

psud,

Maybe. But it used to be more true, back when IPA meant strong and bitter, and other terms were used for the high flavour beers

WhatsHerBucket,
@WhatsHerBucket@lemmy.world avatar

I agree completely, but I was referring to places it’s grown. Not many states have the climate to grow outdoors.

I was thinking places like Humboldt :)

Rodeo,

I live in Canada and I grow it outdoors.

It doesn’t require desert weather.

scottywh,

Grows fine outdoors in Colorado… And Georgia… And Florida… Or so I’ve “heard

gamermanh,
@gamermanh@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Humboldt is great but even places like Sac can grow amazing weed

My neighbors growing up grew huge, amazing plants for a couple years, would give my parents a ton for help trimming n caring for em while they were at work or on vacation or shit like that

The only places I’ve been in CA I haven’t caught either a grow op or someone growing a personal or two were all in the mountains and in the winter

I even knew a guy who lived near death valley that grew some outdoors, but never got to try it

MacNCheezus,
@MacNCheezus@lemmy.today avatar

It’s everywhere

Kolanaki, (edited )
@Kolanaki@yiffit.net avatar

Now that it’s legal, it’s not really regional to in and around Humboldt County; there are weed farms in the central valley now. Also, meth is stronger and much more present outside the green strip.

apprehentice, in The rage is real

If you install the right tools, even Windows can’t stop you. If all else fails, get a terminal as TrustedInstaller and lay waste to your system.

Honytawk,

You don’t need additional tools, all of that is baked into Windows.

It is just a little hidden because they don’t want non-tech users to accidentally delete system files.

SorryQuick,

Been a while since I touched windows but from what I remember, anything you modify/delete as TrustedInstaller gets reverted back every update.

Umm... Unless that's a 6 door vehicle, that racoon is driving (in the US).

Its on mars

Slagathor,

It’s legal in some states.

Mirrored photo?

Froyn,

Nah, Its one or more of:
a) in a country where the driver seat is to the right of the vehicle
b) the driver has the racoon on their lap
c) the vehicle is parked
d) AI/Photoshop

Wilzax,

Froyn,

How would you mirror a photo to make the back seat appear as the front? (Look at the door handles)

Just double the monitors and make it an open office concept, and it’s a dead ringer.

I think the picture is missing several people from upper management hovering behind the chair?

SCB,

In my specific case that almost never happened. Logistics role, so super busy and intense, but you’re very much left to your own devices

I kind of miss the atmosphere now that I’m in a very different role, tbh. I do not miss the pressure tho.

@massive_bereavement@kbin.social avatar

I hated cubicles until I discovered open offices, then I just plainly hated offices:
hated water-cooler conversations,
hated the smell of reheated meals,
the unending birthdays of people I spoke to once a year,
the parties and outings that are secretly interviews,
the idle people that are always looking for killing time chatting,
the busy people looking for a nasty rumor to climb higher,
I hated commuting and hated having to stay longer just so everyone thinks I'm working hard,

But above all, I hated the middle managers that want to both be your friend, your boss and the person that will fire you to cover a fuck up.
