There are instances that do not federate with .ml. The one I’m on is such.

That’s what pihole does. Blocks on DNS level.

Is this cat real? Feels computer generated.

Functional issues with her vehicle?! What, did the front fall off?

Fundamentally disagree. Again, there’s more the world than US.

Because we can. Because it’s thrilling. Because there’s more to a car than top speed. Because there’s more to the world than US.

One of the few good things russia has done. Voluntarily pulling dumbasses into their own borders.

I understand this whole newfound hate is coming from the AI bubble, but a bunch of cool stuff is in those DCs as well - most lemmy instances included.

Interesting. Not using discord, either! Will keep an eye in case keepassxc’s qt6 migration becomes a big enough pain.

Not the guy you’re talking to, but this made me think!

I wonder if some 60s american 8 liter engine would actually consume that much. I think it’s possible! Longer startup time, less efficient combustion…

Be proactive! Put some effort in yourself! Nobody owes you anything.

Not really, you just sound like you want to make me look silly to justify people’s inability. Driving is not for everyone, just like everything else. There are other options - use them. Or, worst case, quit forcing dangerous situation on everyone around you and stick to the slow lane.

Wostasha.

Being an ignoramus is not “deeming it’s not safe”. Stick to whichever side is for lorries and dumbasses on the phone in your country.

It’s up to employers who they employ. It’s not for you or I to decide what job or what person are suitable.

Water is wet. As for who decides - it’s normally the team members. I have been on both sides of the interview process; it’s a normal thing to do.

But if your skilled enployees are switching to burger flipping because they can make the same money then you aren’t paying the new market rate.

I mean… Yes, but that’s a whole new topic altogether. What are those mythical employees that are switching their careers to burger flipping?

It does. It also lifts all the turds.

You know how to make them boats get lifted even quicker? Join the tide. Invest in yourself. Make yourself better.

In what way is working a more physically demanding job “advancing yourself”?

It’s not the physical part - which isn’t even all that great of a difference - but getting familiar with physics. Working your brain rather than your muscle. That’s an advance.

There’s also a risk element - you fuck up on a powerline - you’re potentially dead. Fuck up a burger? You get yelled at.

Besides, I’d also argue that most customer facing jobs are just as demanding as most physical trade jobs. They just fuck you up mentally instead of physically.

All jobs suck the soul out of you. If you don’t want that - build a career. That requires one doing something one’s great at. It requires an internal drive.

Not even degrees mean much anymore, a lot of job positions require one cause they can, not cause you’d actually benefit from that knowledge. Spending all that time and money to get a piece of paper can Aldo hardly be called "advancing yourself’.

You’re not wrong about job requirements, but I’d argue your whole world view is skewed.

You get a degree to advance your understanding of a thing you give a shit about. If you get one because your parents told to or whatever - then of course it’s useless. Many reasons for that, but one of them is going that to that internal drive.

Quick personal example: I got a CS degree. Out of ~150 people who started ~40 graduated (which I think is probably usual), but of those 40 only 3 were people actually interested in computers. Others were there for all kinds of wrong reasons. Some of those people are now loudly screaming into the ether how degrees are useless. It worked out very well for the 3 of us. As of upcoming August, I will have literally 10x the income I had before starting my degree in 2016. Now, granted, small numbers are easy to get impressive multiplication on, but I’m still proud of it.

So… Putting in effort to advance yourself should not be rewarded? I don’t get it.

I totally get it. Ferrari is a statement, not just a vehicle. This is silly.

That’s a factory feature nowadays
