TIL that NBC has a sequel.

Also this bit helps understand a bit more why these requests are missing. Counties are simply following a very shitty new Desantis law.

However, a new law signed by Governor Ron DeSantis requires counties to purge requests before every general election.

@tryplot oh for real? I had no idea. My brain said “looks like Reddit upvotes, must work the same way”. The up/downvote buttons are placed prominently in a way that suggests they are impactful, whereas boost is just kinda tertiary / seems less important.

Aside from the $300k price tag, sadly….

The car will be a Low Speed Vehicle, meaning it won’t go faster than about 25 miles per hour on a paved surface. If a driver needs a faster route, they will be able to use the vehicle's flight capabilities, according to Alef.

I really, REALLY wanted to be a ninja turtle when I was like 7 or 8. I didn’t let anyone in on that, but I thought if I wanted it enough I might change into one overnight.

@Jcb2016 Good news… at least two kbin apps are in the works. Follow @dansup for their Kbam app, and @hariette for their Artemis app. Artemis sounds like it’ll be heavily Apollo inspired, whereas Kbam is doing something a bit different.

@Calvinball one of my team thought it was Friday on Monday. So no matter what I had going on I knew it was better than that poor soul.

@Teppic Apollo too :/

Right? Reads like… hey kidnappers, parents hate this one simple trick

Not that people like this guy would ever actually hear this, but I love this bit from the article

Despite the stereotype that trans and nonbinary people don’t know what gender they are, they usually have put more thought into their gender identities than cisgender people have and have explored that aspect of themselves to a greater degree. Many transgender people know they are men or women with as much or even more certainty than many cisgender people, and nonbinary people don’t have the problem of knowing “if” they’re men or women because they can be just as certain that they are neither.

Shitposts and Rule are dominating right now

Love that I can hop over to kbin (or vice versa) when this stuff happens.

Both of these people suck. But downvoting because the article doesn’t really feel like political news? Seems very sensationalized.

I imagine there’s a drop off in casual usage. It’s a trending thing and I’m sure a lot of people checked it out a few times for the novelty of it.

@GeekFTW Duck Hunt and Zelda A Link to the Past on SNES. Core childhood memories with family.

@sixdix fuck off

If I understand correctly, your content on the fediverse is already public (DM’s, posts, etc.). So that data is already collectable. What Threads / Meta can’t get is the rest of the info above in the original post, and tie that to you.

The interpretation of “effective synergy” is verrrrrry much open to speculation on all ends.

Right and I’m sure this asshat congressman does not.

Same! I lurked a lot on Reddit because even trivial comments felt like they’d get picked at (or more often just not result in additional conversation). Here I feel much more comfortable typing and not second guessing. Feels good.

I had a setup like this a while back. I’m going with the foot of the bed is the side that most easily lets you jump up and land on your back.

@mizu6079
Didn’t know about peertube. Thank you, will check it out.

In this list, conservatism bias strikes me as very much on the upward trend the last 5-10 years

I get that. Honestly I never would’ve thought of posting something like this on Reddit but here I feel a little bit more comfortable because it seems like people are open to things without a bunch of judgment. Would love to know what you think about the first two games but also if you do have a chance to look at the third game, I’d love to hear your thoughts on it.

The third game is definitely a riff on the first two but I’m also really enjoying it.

Are you doing the splat fest next weekend? I’m still trying to figure out what team I’m going to pick. I really do love the tricolor battles, it’s so chaotic and unique. I honestly wish turf war was more like tri color.

The communities I’m used to are usually REALLY into the lore, the memes, the meta. It can be fun to sift through but I’m not a contributor really. I would love a more casual focused space.

More about xAI in general than the diversity thing. Maybe both.

I suppose I’m aiming at a middle ground where yes things should be summarized… but also take a look too, it’s interesting, I want to know what you think after scanning.

Yeah I did some searching instead of hanging out on that one, super sketch

Which UI?

ETA: asking since people will see this across the fediverse, and may not realize where you posted this

@rimlogger

Without comments, I feel far less inclined to leave a comment unless there’s a discussion already going on.

I am used to being much more of a lurker, but I find myself jumping in on new posts if I have any thoughts to offer. I figure we can all pitch in a bit to try to stoke conversation.

I have so many thoughts! I think your experience is very relatable, I bet many people reading this are thinking “wait does this person work on my team or for my company?”.

If you have a trusted friend or a therapist you can talk with I think that’d be helpful to sort out how burnt out you are and how much longer you can sustain this. But even just based on your original comments alone, it really seems like a change up would be helpful. If you have friends or even friends of friends in a similar field but different company, ask around about work culture and try to find an organization that does things differently. I do think work stress management techniques are useful no matter what kind of role / company you work for, but still…. Seems like it’s time for you to get away from your current situation. Best of luck to you and I truly hope you land yourself in a better spot!
