You know, of all the things of this post, it's the Roku remote that really confuses me. Was he holding it when he answered the door? Was it in his pocket and he took it out when was looking for phone to make the Tweet?
I wish the guy who did Searching and Missing did a movie like this.
It's so weird when you actually meet a good recruiter

If this would have surprised no one they wouldn't have done it and just ate the cost of office spaec. No, there's people out there who still think company loyalty is a thing and that fostering a "company culture" is actually viable.
Not a bug, a feature. Bubbles are not healthy, if you can see the horrible, the horrible can see you. You are reminded that there's dangerous viewpoints out there, they are reminded that they will have to debate and argue logically to be tolerated. That is one of the few ways to cure a toxic point of view. Doesn't work everytime obviously, but if you get one person to hesitate before posting some sort of BS comment we're 90% of the way there.
I'm talking from a Netherlands server, you from Canada. I'm sure lots of differences of opinion but I know you're a person with experiences different from mine and therefore I need to be respectful when discussing things I don't know anything about.
I feel like their marketing needs a rewrite, everyone vaguely knew the LHC was to identify the Higgs Boson, what's this one for, gravitons?

Oh to play Ursula and getting to use the phrase "As per the contract you signed" in an email to your boss.
She says at the end "Let's go make that cake." After all that bullshit with the penguin and sand and water she now expects Mario to give a shit about using a KitchenAid and piping fondant. Don't care if it's bombass pussy she can go get fucked.

I can't believe how many virtual meetings in the last three years that people are still sharing their screens.
People seem to share their screens in 3 situations:
- Showing or explaining a document. Whether it be a slideshow or written document, people seem obsessed with idea that no one else knows how to read or that they write just as incompetently as they present.
- Explaining procedure. I get it, things can be complicated. Learn to screen record.
- Collaboration. Most conferencing apps have a whiteboard or other document creation apps have real time collaboration. You just don't want to use these things because you want to be in 100% control of what's being written down. You don't want a meeting, go do your own things, if you feel obligated to turn it into a meeting you just want attention.
We all have a limited time on this earth. We're not going to remember or care about the meetings in a year or two. Go find something meaningful to do with your life. Stop sharing your screen, and even better yet, don't have the meeting at all. We're not going to look back at the end of our lives and wish we'd had more meetings.

"Xbox Live and the ability to download new content is not a crutch to ship crappy software. And too often on the PC--I'm going to be blunt here--in the PC gaming space, games get out that developers know have problems because they know they can patch them later. They know they can force updates. And the act of playing [games online] becomes a pain in the ass, because you put the disc in and then you gotta download the patch and you gotta download the service pack and you gotta download the security hot fix, and then you gotta apply those things and reboot your machine. That's not an entertainment experience. That is not fun." -- Jeff Henshaw, Group Program Manager - Xbox, 2010-10-06

Does anyone know if Lemmy has support for a "replicated instance"?
What I'm imagining is a backup of all Communities and Posts at least, in such a way that does not cause a nightmare for the Federated feed, but could be swapped in if something were to happen to the original?
