A good chunk of my work is scheduled turning off and on again in the right order so things don’t break

Now that is someone who has thought about this question a lot

Legally the product is no longer their priority, maximising shareholder profits is their priority.

Not many companies manage to not get twisted to a worse product for the customers, though their ads get really good

A culture of glorifying tans, mixed with needing a reason to show off your southern cross tattoo, beautiful weather and free public BBQs at parks and beaches.

Remember to slip, slop, slap

Three screens billed as “business expense” actually used as a sim racing rig.

But you will end up filling any screen space you have. When coding I very quickly fill out the space, to see files and folders I am intereacting with, communication apps, websites, IDE, ticket screen. Some days I wish I had 4.

Random thought, do Lemmy posts show up in searches?

I’m pretty sure that’s how I ended up at reddit. After so many google searches lead me to the site, I decided to check it out some more

Tangentially Speaking by Chris Ryan.

He interviews interesting people, some famous, most not. The latest episode was with a guy he happened to meet at a party and thought he had an interesting story.

As the name implies he is very happy to go off on tangents, so the episodes can end up in topics you never would have guessed from the guest description.

Word of warning he does tend to talk for about 30 minutes at the start of every episode. I personally enjoy it but I know others who it annoys.

I feel him selling out turned me off ever wanting to watch it. He didn’t need the money, he was already super well off. So he just showed that he didn’t value his listeners, he knew he would lose some but didn’t care.

Compared to my favorite podcast that offers people to email him if they can’t afford the paid stuff because he just wants people to be able to listen.

I use my phone for quick notes on the go, or creating lists of information I want to be able to re order and edit.

I use pen and paper mainly for brain dumps. Getting a stream of thoughts out of my head and on to paper. I find trying to use a phone for this will lead to some distraction and the thought will go before I capture all of the info.

I also use pen and paper when studying a topic, especially for a test, I find the simple of act of writing the information down is enough to cement it in my brain, even if I never go back and read those notes.

That’s a side affect, but those retail stores could also move out to where the houses are with some legal changes.

It would be a nice suprise but I doubt corporate really cares about Jane and Joe’s coffee shop, or the local Hugo Boss

I prefer glasses, but people treat me different when I wear my contacts. Had people describe it to me that they don’t see my nerdy traits when I have my contacts. This seems to help me in social situations and being accepted easier.

So I wear glasses day to day and contacts if I am going to events.

“A Serbian Film”

Young and dumb I watched a movie suggested by 4chan, I still have flashbacks over 10 years later of 1 scene from the movie.
