It was an internship and I didn't plan on staying but once I got called in the manager's office. He asked me if I were doing some industrial spying . At that point in life all I wanted was to go home and play some games for the rest of summer until university starts over.

He threatened me he could see everything I did on my computer and asked me if he should look it up. To which I said go ahead you'll find my job.

Couple days later I arriver exactly 3 minutes lates because of public transportation issue. I used to arrive 15 minutes early everyday because my transport schedule was that way. I got summoned again to tell me to leave earlier.

I told all that to my university and they decided to blacklist the company. Being that my university was part of a .bigger network, their behaviour led them to be cut off from the biggest local intern pool.

No idea why they were so annoying, I wasn't even browsing Reddit on their computer back then and used my phone for that kind of stuff. No idea what lead them to think I'd steal data. I don't even know if they have competitors haha

I think it's still a migration of a rather knowledgeable part of the windows users. I did migrate a year ago because of frustrations from windows pop ups showing up like they own the computer.

I a still reluctant to recommend it to my partner who is comfortable with windows but not really techy. As long as Linux works, it works. But when you need something a bit more involved or something breaks, the terminal will be harder for those users who might not have ever opened CMD in windows.

Just jump. I went Linux a month ago and never had to go back for gaming. I still have windows installed but I've used it only twice because music plugins are not compatible with Linux. Once I find a good guitar amp for my needs I can nuke windows entirely.

I was driving with Waze once, on the highway but first gear like 10km/h because trafic. A popup came and I wanted to discard it because I was nearly at my turn and didn't want to lose it so I pushed the cross. By the small time I spent doing this, I was already going sideways off my lane.

Lesson learned. Next time it happens I'd rather stay in my lane and take the next exit. But fk the people putting Ads in my car. Let me focus.

Translator here. Beware of translation tools. It's fine for personal use and basic understanding but it's not up to the task for the translation of complex stuff or technical stuff. It's good at creating text that looks legit but can sometimes contain critical errors.

I once worked on a medical device and used machine translation to test it. The text was fine but some numbers were changed. This is a huge error.

Another reason I discovered recently. I work at home on a company laptop. Can't do shit with it so I listen to music via my phone or personal desktop. I tried using Bluetooth gear but realised quickly that if someone called me on teams/Skype or whatever, switching device with Bluetooth is tedious and slow. Wired stuff goes out and in, boom. Oh and none of my computer's have a usb c port despite one being fairly new (2021).

Have you tried putting your search between " " ? It usually helps improve my results.

I agree so much. It feels like I "understand" how a computer talks and interacts as opposed to most people I work with just learn processes by heart and have no clue what to do once their process breaks.

No, it's on the awesome self hosted list. It's a great simple recipe manager, shopping list. Nice ui. My wife uses it to meal prep and I'm trying to understand grocy to speed up the process of checking what we need to buy.

There's a very old saying that I think was attributed to a Roman leader which went something like "Games and bread", humans have been easy to swat for a very long time.

Also, it was full of knowledge that has been deleted. I'm starting my Linux journey and every error I get has at least one Reddit post about it. Most answers are deleted and I have to go on other sites.

I'd say we did lose a lot. It's akin to an autodafé.

Oh she's defrosted alright. My company sent the memo to start playing the Xmas playlist starting today, for 50% of tracks. Then December up to 100%. I'm happy I'm WFH and can listen to whatever I like.

I bought a kettle with a temperature selector. I have one degree of precision. Which is often overkill. It's surprisingly useful to be able to heat water at non scalding temps. Especially for cleaning tasks, actually.

Translator here. They do make up stuff or omit stuff they don't like. Machine translation is fine for tourists or to translate a ikea manual in the wrong language. If there are stakes, risky. They got good enough to make sentences that look right so it can be tricky to spot the errors if you don't pay attention.

Numbers are typical errors. Sometimes it's there but the number has changed. Sometimes it's not there at all. Oh and if you have currencies a translators knows a document from the UK in pounds that is adapted for France will have to be converted in euros. Machines don't.

Generally speaking when a client wants to use machine translation, it costs them more money in the end because of the extra time needed to correct everything to a high human grade standard.

Please add a disclaimer to the documents stating it was machine translated. Machine translation can get it wrong or take liberties, make up stuff. Please inform your readers so they can be on the lookout.

Keep in mind the translated stuff by machine translation won't be 100% what you say in your native language to other students. Be careful not to spread wrong information or knowledge.

Take it easy, you'll get your vr legs eventually. The key for me was to learn to detect when my body was starting to feel bad, stop immediately and go take a break. If you stop the symptoms early you can take regular short breaks instead of being drowsy all night.

Also, find some easier games for your stomach. Typically, stuff in a vehicle/plane/spaceship is easier for the brain because it understands something is moving but not you.

Static games work too. Beat saber is the classic but I'd like to recommend SynthRider.

Also, play around with the settings when you're fresh and see what works. The black blinders on the side help most people but it make nausea worse for me.

Thanks a lot! I certainly need to learn about permissions and docker mapped directories in general. This is still very unclear in my head and it prevents me from troubleshooting my own stuff which is frustrating. You're all very cool but I'd like to not post a lemmy every time an app has wrong permissions haha. I'll have a read.

Thanks, that was the problem. I read the docs and I got it.

Thanks, that helped.

Can I create several -v paths for different media locations or should I just move all data into the one folder mapped?

Here to ask questions too. Is it necessary to add stuff to etc/hosts for this to work man only? Do I have to do portforwarding on my routeur and to what?

I've been trying to achieve exactly that for a week now and none of my attempts load at all.

Is there a resource or YouTube guide explaining all this so I actually know what I''m doing?

Probably depends on the plane somewhat. I flew Air-France to go to Mexico and didn't have that on their a380

Applies to many fields. Studied translation at university and, kudos to the head teacher, he kept saying we worked on current software for illustration but the point was to learn transverse skills to apply to whatever tools are trendy once on the market. Turns out I work in a firm working outdated software older than my uni did. But I always agreed with the dude, we'll have to adapt or die as businesses.

I have tidal for music and I really want to drop it since their price hike. The only thing still blocking me is that I don't have a decent way to listen to music in my car without a subscription service. It sucks.

Not great. I'm tired of family drama all the time. Wish they could just get along some days.

Do you have places where you can buy those old business drives? Are there websites for this market?

Yeah, I wanted to go the usb route but I only have one usb port which is often used to display Waze on the screen. I thought of using Spotify with an Adblock but that's not ideal as it could stop working anytime and basically revert to being a radio. Can't wait to find a way to ditch tidal.

I thought so, too. I played around with the tar idea and it led me to discover the permissions are wrong on the original computer. I have added new info on the main post about it but basically the owner is "user:70" and I have no idea where that comes from. I tried using CHOWN to reset everything to my own user, which is the same on both computers (1000:1000 uidguid), but whenever I restart the container, it locks again.

I tried using tar as you said, and it didn't work. Which led me to investigate and realize the owner of the postgres folder is unknown to me. Changed it back with CHOWN but it reverts back to the weird owner when I restart the container so I'm missing some knowledge and know-how. I'm trying to figure out who sets that permission in the first place.

That's basically what the author of the app told me to do. I'm having wrong permission issues I believe and I haven't found yet who/what assigns the wrong permission when I start the container.

Good idea! I tried sync with my other computer and the software complained about not having permissions on the postgres folder. I investigated and found out postgres directory is owned by user:70. I have yet to find where that comes from. I changed it with a sudo chown but it reverts to the wrong owner when I restart the container.

Yeah, I'm trying to use neural DSP stuff along with guitar pro. Reaper works on Linux so the DAW is ok. I'll take a look at yawbrige, thanks!

I like ChaseMountains. Some good exercises in there.
