"...to learn how to love, and forget how to hate"
  • Next time you listen to it, imagine the situation that is being presented. The singer said that all the words are literally what the guy at the department store was saying without knowing who Mark Knopfler (the singer) was. Add in the video (in a time when computer graphics were very primitive) and it's really one of those great stories.

  • A ton of job postings might actually be fake
  • I can see from your reaction that you do not have a lot of experience with this type of thing. Not meaning to be insulting but your comment feels really naive. Jobs sometimes take 6+ months to come to a place where you can post it and get interviews. During that time lots of things can happen. In this case they needed a system administrator and during the 6 months it takes for HR to do their thing, we were given a mandate that we had to change direction as a whole and move out of the Datacenter and into the Azure cloud.

    So now we needed a system admin with Azure experience but our original job did not make that a requirement. They kept the job posting and interviews in hopes that one of the people they initially selected would be a fit but sadly none of them had exposure to Azure so we had to start over.

  • A ton of job postings might actually be fake
  • It's probably more nuanced than the research can show. At my work, we had a job posting and interviews and selected candidates but the job description was written long before and the management wanted a different skill set (needed more Azure experience) and so basically that job posting never came to be. It's still being reworked and maybe it'll actually produce an FTE but it's a fake job posting that wasn't meant to be.

  • Trump’s Spiritual Adviser Resigns Amid Allegations He Molested 12-Year-Old
  • Not even a good joke, sadly its very real.

    I went to a catholic school, very small had like 15 people in a grade for the most populated grades. Usually 2 grades in a classroom. A nun was the principle and we had a priest for the church and some religion classes.

    One day the priest was removed and we were all told he went back to Ireland.

    Years later when the catholic church was raked over the coals, the dirty deeds were spelled out in the news paper.

    That priest was moved from small town USA, Chewelah Washington, to a bigger city, Spokane, to remove him from allegations of sexual abuse. He continued those abuses at the School he was reassigned to!!

    The guy who baptized me and my brother and sister. The guy I considered next to Jesus. The guy I told all my childhood sins to.

    Fuck that guy, I hope he is in hell.

  • Not to mom shame...
  • see... AM radio waves go up and bounce down, this makes it so they can travel farther and give you better reception when you are out in the boonies but the cost comes when the weather isn't very good. FM broadcasts its waves in a more side ways that works best with line of site.

    This lady is clearly frightened of the AM talk radio and religious nut waves coming from they sky and not of the cool easy jazz and soft hits of the 60's 70's and 80's

  • SDF federation with lemmy.world is borked

    Anyone else notice that lemmy.world federation seems to be broken? All my communities with them (and probably more instances) appear to be devoid of activity.

    :(

    Where I work, there's a computer museum. I was going through some boxes and found this. The real jem here is the 16bit version.

    When the server breaks, who do we contact?

    It seems that the server was broken for more then 24 hours and I wasn't sure who to contact. So, who do we ask to reboot or fix the instance if its down?

    Posts don't appear to propagate to other instances

    So I'm noticing that I don't seem to get any engagement when I'm posting replies to posts generated on other instances. Just now I thought I'd go directly to a thread on lemmy.world to see if my comment was showing there but it isn't. Other non lemmy.world users are showing up.

    Does anybody else notice this or is it just me?

    Example: https://lemmy.sdf.org/comment/6595136 My comment

    https://sh.itjust.works/comment/6752604 Who I replied to

    https://lemmy.world/comment/6161325 Where the thread originally was posted

    Edit: the issue appears to have resolved
