Anon lives with their parents
  • Where do you live to be able to buy a house in cash after 3 years of working? Where I live the average appartment is about 400K euros and the average house is closer to 500K euros.

    Maybe you can find something for 250K if you really buy something small that needs lots of work. But you still need over 80K a year excluding taxes, probably closer to 120K before taxes.

  • Chromium Manifest V3 Explained for Toddlers
  • I'm fairly sure Microsoft is actively trying to screw Firefox. Outlook has always sucked in Firefox, teams is a shit show. When you use a useragent switcher somehow a lot of features seem to work magically in Firefox (which tells me MS is doing this on purpose).

    For Outlook (exchange) I use Thunderbird with a paid plug-in (to make the 2FA stuff work). It's pretty cheap and totally worth it for me at least.

  • consider the implications for a post scarcity future
  • Yes we need more long time energy storage. It helps to balance the energy grid and it helps for days when not enough energy is produced. Batteries aren't really the answer, but pumping water uphill might be.

  • mine is waterproof too
  • A while ago I came to the conclusion that a Casio G-Shock is the best watch. They don't have to be expensive, a good one will sync the time multiple times a day, so it's always accurate. A good one also has small solar panels in the watch face, so the battery will never be empty, and all of them are really build to last.

    From a pure functional perspective I think it's the best watch ever made. It basically tells you the correct time, always.

  • I think an intern helps them tie their shoes too
  • I work in software development, I understand websites, webservices and the backend it all runs on at a pretty deep level.

    But I never owned an Apple device. So whenever my wife (iMac user) has a problem and I try to help, I struggle with all the basic shit. I don't know the interface, don't know the menu structure, don't have muscle memory for basic key bindings (like copy paste).

    Same with my parents, a few years ago my dad gave my mom his old iphone, didn't do any factory reset etc. She used logged out his apple id and logged in hers. But the apps he installed refused to update, very little information from the device about the problem. They don't know you shouldn't do this and just give me the phone and say apps don't update. It took me a while to figure out what the hell was even going on.

  • I'm a trans girl 🏳️‍⚧️ !!
  • Yeah let's focus on trans people, and ignore all the religious bullshit we feed our kids, or all the violence we show them. Its mind boggling how Americans are afraid of some nudity, but simultaneously show kids cartoons where violence and murder are just normal.

    I worry about the poor boys that don't like women and have an idiot like you as a parent.

    I have a boy and trust me boys are not growing up thinking they are women. There are more people in jail/prison in the USA than there are trans people, so now all boys are growing up confused thinking they should be in prison?

  • Debian security amirite?
  • Exactly, if you are as big a Microsoft, you can't tell 100% if one of your developer's is actually being paid by a foreign government. Even if you say completely check the commits other devs make, there will still be deadlines when a code review is just "looks fine, next".

  • Debian security amirite?
  • Ugh this reminds me of a guy I worked with, he used to be a trucker but became a software tester (he was also very religious).

    Anyway he used to hate on open source software and call it open sores. According to him it was all amateur crap. Ugh I still hate that guy and it has been 15 years....

  • Who was your first?
  • Actual first was I think knopix or whatever it was called. My friend had a bootable floppy and we booted it on a school computer.

    First real daily use was Ubuntu somewhere around 2006.

  • Court upholds town bylaw banning anyone born in 21st century from buying tobacco products
  • If you ban tabacco all out its going to create a huge black market. Addicted smokers that don't want to stop aren't just going to stop.

    But, raising the legal smoking age with one year every year might work. Tabacco use is already pretty low for GenZ as smoking isn't "cool" like it was in the 70s.
