cybersandwich, to programmer_humor in Not mocking cobol devs but yall are severely underpaid for keeping fintech alive

Cobol devs that we had (while we spent insane money to retire their systems) we’re getting 300-500k/year.

I’m sure companies are trying to rip off any young new entrants but 90k seems super low.

cybersandwich, to memes in The current state of Twitch

Ive heard this over and over, but it’s bullshit.

I watch half a dozen streamers on twitch. 4 apex legends streamers and 2 developers(all dudes because that seems somewhat relevant). I don’t browse random streams and I don’t click on anything.

Occasionally, I’ll end up watching other streamers if my guys raid someone as they sign off. But never are they raiding “boobi” streams. It’s usually other apex streamers or other devs.

The other day, home page was filled with tits and scantally clad ladies. The recommended feeds were almost all that.

So I’m not clicking on it. I’m not seeking it out. I’m not even hovering over it. But it was pushing that content hard.

The Finals works on Linux!

In other news, I got a message saying I was banned from The Finals for playing on Linux.

cybersandwich, to linuxmemes in Not really, since I'm the admin 😁

What are you talking about? It’s horrible from a users perspective. I never know where I am saving anything

I only use Windows at work (because I have to). The thing that drives me fucking nuts, as an advanced computer user in general, is how God damned unintuitive the 365 Office,OneDrive, and File explorer integration is.

I have no idea where I am saving stuff half the time(or more accurately have to change it each time because the defaults are dumb). I don’t want it in my OneDrive downloads folder or OneDrive documents folder. I want it in my fucking laptop download folder or local documents folder.

Then Teams is saving stuff in SharePoint in the background, permissions are annoying AF. At least they’ll flag that a recipient of an email attachment or imbedded url doesn’t have access. So that’s nice I guess.

Oh, then sometimes I’m prompted to save a copy of a shared document, but that’s different from “download a copy”. If you save a copy it just makes a new shared copy for everyone in the SharePoint site.

I feel like a boomer when I work with MS now. Maybe it’s all enterprise settings for where I work and maybe it’s not MS’s fault but hot damn I am so much less productive than if I just used Gsuite, only office, on Mac or .

Maybe I just need to spend a week taking training classes on these products. But who tf has time for that when you have your actual job to do. So I guess that really sums up Microsoft for me: it’s in the way and slowing me down.

How many widgets have we transferred to acme this year?

Simple enough question right?

But then when you look at the data, each region works with acme’s local offices differently. Some transfer using one method, some offices mark the transfer in the system as “other firm”. Oh, and we don’t even get a data feed from the north west region because they still haven’t upgraded their shit so I can request a spreadsheet but it’s in a different format than everything else.

Then inevitably Acme has a different number of widgets that have been transfered. Because if a transfer gets kicked back or cancelled, it’s easier to just create a new transfer rather than go fix an old one because that process is laborious and requires tons of approvals so they just create a new transfer and send it over.

But yea, 20 minutes should be enough time to get you that before your meeting with Acme.

cybersandwich, to linux in Alright, I'm gonna "take one for the team" -- what is with the "downvote-happy" users lately?

Wasn’t the rule for one of the more popular Usenet groups: rule 1. Don’t be annoying 2. Don’t be easily annoyed

Tbh, that’s a pretty great foundation for any interactions on the web.

cybersandwich, to linuxmemes in Never again

Discord could be a decent place for technical support, the way irc used to be used, but unless it’s super active with knowledgeable, helpful people, forums/GitHub discussions and other asynchronous comms channels make way more sense.

Otherwise it’s like shouting into the void and the signal to noise ratio on my discord channels is really low.

Plus with forums and discussion boards they can be stickied and indexed to be searched. So the next time someone has that error message they can pull up that exact discussion.

cybersandwich, to selfhosted in Help with Audiobookshelf Port Number

You’re using network_mode: “host” which makes the container use the host’s networking directly. When you use host mode, the port mappings are ignored because the container doesn’t have its own IP address, it’s sharing the host’s IP. Remove or change the network mode to see if that fixes it.

cybersandwich, to linux in Reddit API blew up and now I run Linux?

Lmfao

cybersandwich, to asklemmy in Is there a forum for people who are lonely and sad but specifically not incel sickos?

Calling incle sickos “incel sickos” is 100% okay and acceptable. There is no reason to shy away from calling spades spades.

There is this idea that we need to pussyfoot around calling out hateful groups so what? We don’t offend them?

No, confront it head on. You encourage that type of behavior if you shy away from confronting it.

Don’t be so open minded your brain falls out.

cybersandwich, to selfhosted in Migrated my self-hosted Nextcloud to AIO and I absolutely love it

I could never get the AIO setup to work well for some reason. It was also a couple versions behind it seemed.

I…uh…know it’s not popular on the fed, but I use the nextcloud snap package and it’s been rock solid. It’s always up -to-date and they have a backup/export feature too.

cybersandwich, to linux in Laptop with long runtime

14 hours of battery life. Linux out of the box and even has coreboot if you care about that sort of thing.

cybersandwich, to programmer_humor in I'll just be a quick 3h

That’s exactly how you should respond. I’ve been on the requester for some of these and if my team gave me that as a response I’d just say “let me know what you find out or when you know more.”

cybersandwich, to linuxmemes in Wayland vs X11 be like

Kinda just seems like arguing because you have nothing better to do.

You don’t seem confused at all. You summed it up nicely.

cybersandwich, to memes in Make everyone hate you with this one neat trick

A special shout out to the people who do it with Bluetooth speakers on hiking trails.
