I used supporting nazis as an example, sub in whatever other bullshit you want

either way, the proposed solution is valid - stop inviting them

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 16 points 3 weeks ago

you just don't invite those people. if it's out of your control, then you don't engage

and if those family want to see them, they'll stop inviting the ones supporting nazis

I gave Nintendo one chance when I bought a Switch a few years back, and Mario Golf (because I loved the Gameboy game).

I did not feel like I got my money's worth from that game.

well, technically, I gave them two chances, because I also bought a Zelda game for Switch, idr which, haven't really played it yet. but I don't count that because I bought that as a thing to do with my partner, not as an actual attempt to enjoy a video game (we had been working through the Zelda games from N64 onwards side by side)

daily status of an hour is fucked

we have a weekly for our ten person team, and that is long if it goes 15 minutes

tbf, that's the team meeting, not project — project meetings are longer

the more I am watched, the less productive I am. both in actual output, and in appearance.

want to watch my every move? okay, I now spend time ensuring it appears acceptable when I am using it. but I'm also going to avoid using my watched device whenever possible to do work via other methods, like writing things out in a notebook instead of digitally

thankfully I am (for now) not under any sort of digital supervision. that I am aware of.

I don't even trust the well established automated 6 axis robots in use all over the world in factories today. I'm sure as fuck not trusting one of those things standing next to me.

you ever seen a robot go from super slow teaching speed to 100% a few seconds later with a few hundred pounds attached to it? it'll set your safety sensors straight real quick

apparently some do and some don't. or they require a particular cheat code when pressing the button, idk.

the point is, you can't trust your parking brake to be an emergency brake anymore, you press a button and hope something happens

lol that's not the issue here

that can give you the same symptoms, but the tiniest bit of troubleshooting proves that that is not the scenario I have

everything + qttabbar are what make work possible for me

without them, I'd be so inefficient. idk how my coworkers manage without. well, I do, they're slow af sometimes

I've got a question not related to the topic of the post: why is this site so often posted, when it has an ad blocker banner that you can't just click a button to dismiss?

Why is this site considered acceptable? Do they generally do good work, and so people agree that disabling adblockers are worth it?

I'm just so used to sites that do that being shit upon and posters linking them told to go fuck themselves and smarten up

ohhh I didn't notice that, well this is enough to finally push me to actually leave. I kept delaying it
