Lol I was JUST showing this to my wife and adding, and they use “aioli” on everything haha

Having no actual presence on social media

I’ve got some bad news for you…

This is why I almost exclusively listen to podcasts that are scripted, like casefile, freakonomics, this American life, radio lab, wait wait don’t tell me, etc.

Before this, all too often I would find myself listening to people aimlessly chatting about what they had for breakfast and such, and I realized those that scripted their episodes made for a tremendously better listening experience.

Inside Out 2 did well!

It could, but you’re really giving them the benefit of the doubt.

They screwed up, let’s be honest with ourselves.

“Scheduling”

I’m always a little surprised that people go to such effort to create a meme, but can’t be bothered to check their spelling.

Sync for Lemmy has a translation feature. You could try that.

When working on an office, it’s great and all that you have “the power of accurate observation” but god our Debbie downer is insufferable.

Just think of your computer or server as a huge building with thousands of doors. Most are closed, but you purposely open a few to allow traffic in and/or out of. Those that are open are only open for a specific purpose and will only lead in or out of a specific place in the building.

This is the way 🔺

If you’ve ever read atlas shrugged and not rolled your eyes or went, “god this is insufferable” then you might be a Republican lol.

I fuckin HATE ayn rand, but those workers are being paid for their labor, they’re not slaves. If that labor provides a little profit or a lot of profit is up to good or bad business practices of the company they’re working for, and doesn’t need to be shared with them outright, unless it happens naturally as a result of supply/demand making their labor more valuable (because otherwise they’d just go somewhere else where they will be paid more).

The crux here is that for this to happen appropriately, we need to be living in an ideal world with appropriate laws, no corruption, exploitation, loopholes, bribing, lobbying, etc. and we do not currently live in that world, so the above is just theoretical.

Like, I get your overall point, but the whiskey to wine comparison doesn’t quite work lol.

For starters, you’d have to drink a LOT more wine comparatively, which doesn’t translate when going from ICE to electric.

I swear to God I hate Microsoft so much I’m going to seriously look into it.

I have close to no exposure and experience with Linux, but I love you guys.

I think I only recognized like 5 words in that entire paragraph.

Check yourself dude. The mere fact that you say “it’s doubtable these are in the majority” shows EXACTLY what you think of sex work. Your attitude of “ugh that’s so pitiful, no one would do that willingly, they must be forced into it” is fucking offensive.

Millions of people feel stuck in their jobs and “don’t feel like they have much choice.” Walmart, coffee shops, data entry, whatever. But if it’s sex work, all of a sudden it’s something to be ashamed of?

Yeah, sure there’s trafficking out there, and that is horrible. But don’t conflate the two. Don’t just assume that someone doing sex work is being trafficked. Just like you don’t constantly assume someone doing any other job must also be a trafficked slave or something. Get it?

I want to live in a world where no one feels they are struggling so much that they need to turn to selling their body for sex.

You see, that’s the problem. You are implicitly devaluing sex work compared to other professions. You’re not acknowledging that some people actually want to, and choose to do sex work. There’s nothing wrong whatsoever with someone choosing prostitution, stripping, escort, etc.

Could you say your same statement about being a lawyer? A teacher? An engineer?

“I want to live in a world where no one feels they are struggling so much that they need to turn to being an engineer.”

You see how weird that sounds? So why can you say it about sex work? Do you see how derisive you’re being toward it as a profession? Funny that you say you’re supportive while implying that what they’re doing is a last resort…🤦‍♂️

Linux users on Lemmy: People who don’t run Linux are just bad with computers and shouldn’t be using a computer at all!

I remember being part of these exact same conversations on other message boards at least 15 years ago.

We’re all going around in circles here as history repeats itself.
