Kbin.social down again? Are people moving to mbin instances (kbin.run, fedia.io)?
  • The point is there are those who, like myself and others, who requested account deletions on kbin.social. And they have not been processed. Over a period of time those numbers add up. Then you have whole instances that moved (kbin.earth etc)

  • Kbin.social down again? Are people moving to mbin instances (kbin.run, fedia.io)?
  • I'm not sure of the accuracy of the user count for kbin, because account deletion requests, at least for kbin.social, are not being processed. <edited>

  • Wells Fargo fires employees for utilising down time.
  • I reread the article again. I did see anything mentioned about employees working 2nd jobs on company time, nor was it among the reasons they were fired.

  • I don't think I’m looking in the same location you are. here I’m not a coding pro by any means but I'm seeing the list of commits through 5/26/2024 that have been included in the nightly versions.

  • Could this be the Start of a Trend?
  • I sure hope so. I'm tired of the monopoly ISP's have for internet service.

  • Inside Shōgun: How special effects brought 17th-century feudal Japan to vivid life
  • This series was well done! Exceptional acting, special effects, use of Japanese/English dialog, show of Japanese traditions and filming locations brought the book to life in a way that far eclipsed the 1980 miniseries.

  • ‘Ultra wealthy’ Gen Xers are proving more resistant to returning to the office.
  • I agree with OP's comments but the article, not so much. Like OP the Gen Xers I know that are close to retirement with their financial ducks in a row do not prefer to be in the office. Being irreplaceable means you have the leverage to successfully negotiate a WFH arrangement.

    It's great to see Yelp buck the RTO trend. It seems they believe what's best for their employees is also benefit to the company. I wish others would do the same.
