If anyone is, yes it would be executives. I think again it depends on the industry. You won’t catch a tech ceo dead in suit unless they’re testifying in front of congress, for example. But in more traditional industries yes

Most office jobs, no. Certain industries are hold outs, but it’s very rare to see office workers in suits nowadays

535 bodies in congress, somehow zero spines

Absolutely, anyone who thinks it was a golden age didn’t have to live through the broader flash based website hell. Flash games and videos were just the silver lining on otherwise noxious Adobe shit scented cloud

Fair! I’m not giving enough credit to the fact that some applications don’t really have another option than to run root for some dependencies

I know it’s not the issue here really but

the container runs as root

That’s why we need to push for more self hosted containers to support running rootless. There’s no reason for it other than laziness IMHO.

It’s wild to me how many people will jump through a bunch of other random security hoops but not blink an eye about running containers as root

Yeah honestly I went back and read your OP and it sounds like maybe you straight up got a counterfeit unit or something? That’s wild. If genuine replacement parts don’t fit that’s super whack

Something that I’ve learned over the years is that a lot of times what separates cheaper or more expensive brands or higher prestige brands from lower prestige brands is quality control.

In the world of guitars, for example, you can get some amazing deals if you’re willing to deal with buying a guitar that might need a lot of work to be set up properly after you bring it home. Or maybe you’ll be lucky and the one you get will be totally fine and require zero setup.

Nowadays for most products I just assume if I’m spending half the money I’m probably not getting half the value. Instead the lower price means I’m accepting the risk of a 70% chance of proper QC’d unit rather than 95% for the more expensive one.

The problem is it’s basically impossible to know the real rates for these things unless you’re a dealer who sees a high volume and can analyze return rates and stuff so it’s kind of a crapshoot. If I’m buying something I feel confident I can fix or upgrade myself (guitar) I’ll happily save a bunch of money and deal with the risk. A lot of people have that level of experience with 3d printers, and it sounds like you do.

A lot of other people in this thread are clearly expecting an out of the box experience that is perfect. Which is totally fine, not everyone who prints needs to be an expert. But buying a creality machine as someone who isn’t prepared to do some of their own work fixing issues out of the box is probably a bad idea

That’s a really good and reasonable idea, which is why I’m absolutely sure it will never happen 😢

This thread just reminded me to cancel mine. Good riddance IMHO. I should’ve done it back when they started spamming me with “quests” (aka ads) for Amazon and random fucking gatcha games. Between the privacy stuff and the pressure to monetize, there’s next to no way it’s gonna get better.

Let me lead by saying I 100% think Trump is a pedo fuck and deserves to rot in jail.

But the reason why there isn’t talk about an actual conviction from the most sensationalist stuff in the Epstein files is that the most sensationalist stuff all comes from tips or reports given to the FBI or other law enforcement. They haven’t been proven. Nobody wants to hear that because it’s less exciting than reading a headline about how Trump is measuring child vaginas with his finger. It only takes a little bit more effort (actually reading articles rather than headlines) to find out that most of this stuff isn’t in a situation where it could be used in court to convict him currently.

Legit question, not trying to bait or criticize: how many cases of espionage do you think DHS and ICE are actually successfully investigating and preventing? My gut feeling as a US citizen who pays a reasonable amount of attention to the news is “not many” but I honestly haven’t considered it

I’m not even a proton user anymore, for several reasons including the politics of the founder.

It’s possible to be correct and also a dickhead, as evidenced by the way nanook is behaving in this thread.

People are downvoting you because you’re being an ass, don’t give yourself too much credit

Just recently switched to Niri myself - I think the fact that Niri inherits a lot from Smithay for compositior stuff really helps. It’s the same compositor base that cosmic DE uses. Sure hyprland has HDR at present and Niri doesn’t, but I think it helps a lot to not build a compositor and a TWM at the same time. vaxry is honestly just doing way too much and it’s unsustainable and new version blow ups like this were inevitable given how big the install base has become and how huge hyprland feature set has gotten

I live nearish to a military base so a lot of local businesses have a military/veteran discount.

At the store I buy dog food at, the staff are so tired of asking about it that they have shortened “are you a member of the military?” to “any military?”

After I noticed it a few times that every single employee in the store shortened it that way, I started answering “there is one, but I’m not in it.”

Loooots of blank stares. I stopped since apparently nobody gets it or they don’t think it’s funny. I think it’s the former but idk 🤷

Isn’t 365 a combo subscription for word plus a bunch of other stuff? I can’t imagine many of those people are paying exclusively to use word

I’m not a great example since I’m a lemmy user, Linux user, and a million other things that makes me weird as a computer user. But I do have to exist in the modern world and file paperwork and shit just like everyone else, and I honestly don’t think I’ve had to interact with a docx file in at least 6 or 7 years. It’s all PDFs and web forms. Work is all Google Docs and confluence and that type of shit. It’s probably been 10 years since the last time I even opened an MS word client proper, once I left academia.

Anyway, I agree with you. Word seems deader than a door nail in terms of any text editing zeitgeist

Yeah what a coincidence that all the representatives that broke the shutdown weren’t up for re-election next time. Very convenient! I’m sure there was zero coordination to decide who would break rank.

But even if there wasn’t any of that, Chuck still bears responsibility for the failure of the shutdown even if you don’t want to admit it.

Chuck led the shutdown. For better or for worse, it failed to accomplish its goal. Ultimately more responsibility falls on him as minority leader than anyone else. It’s not insane to want someone who coordinates a major gambit like a government shutdown to be capable of keeping the other representatives from breaking rank to accomplish the goal of the shutdown. Coordinating votes is literally a huge part of the job as majority or minority leader. It’s disingenuous to say expecting a party leader in the house to line up votes is contrary to representative democracy.

Just admit the truth, you’ll suck Chuck off no matter what he does. You’re literally incapable of not sucking his dick
