Ironic thing is that they are allowed to criticize, it’s just the same thing that they think they should be able to say whatever they want and have no one say anything back

A good manager can really reset you if you’ve built that trust in ways they can’t even fathom.

I completely feel this. I had one that just said “I think you’re funny, you’re very sarcastic and it’s funny, but no one else here understands it and so they think you’re an asshole”. Also flipped me around, that while I thought I was constantly joking that these people are not my friend group and did not understand my very dry delivery.

Taught me to test the waters a bit before going full sarcasm, and people like me a lot more thanks to that

Yup I’m seeing it, and then people wonder why there were so many rules on reddit banning posting until you had so much karma. Because bad actors spoil it for everyone.

I’ve seen way way way too many marketers try to fluff up https as “encrypted”. They clearly heard a keyword and they go off the walls like they’re the most secure company that ever existed. Usually just a single follow up question like “is it encrypted at rest” or “is my data encrypted with a different key than other users”, or even “does your company have the ability to decrypt it” falls flat on them.

The data they had even proved it was useless to us. Something like 50% of the content came from the 10% on third party apps. They just couldn’t deal with only 90% of their users being served ads constantly though and had to kill off the third party apps.

From what I hear content got noticeably worse. Good

We really need a hard fork, or an alternative. Android doesn’t have the same feeling it did 15 years ago, even 10. It was the open alternative, the anti-apple. Now they just want to be apple.

Okay that makes so much sense, because I knew I had calling before in Element but they wanted me to set up all this extra stuff. Is it still a thing to do the plugin?

Wait there’s a jitsi plugin?

Element on Matrix is the only one I’m aware of - but it’s not the easiest to set up. I would try creating an account on matrix.org’s server just temporarily to try it out and see if it fits what you’re looking for. I like the decentralized nature of it, but the support is very piecemeal, and onboarding people essentially needs a class.

Thought is good, but if life has taught me anything it’s that it’s only a matter of time until someone new takes over and uses it for their nefarious purposes. Forcing it is never a good option, it should be opt in

The amount of people who treat work devices like their own is insane. When work is over my laptop is shutdown and closed. There’s no need for it to be on at all until I start working again. In a way I kind of get the corpo ITs reasoning why they’d want this, people messaging their friends and families from the same devices that have company secrets on them

As an aside, I have that coffee maker and love it! See if there’s a local coffee shop, here in my city it was stocked and they even let me try a cup from there

Oh as an aside, the coffee comes out SUPER weak at the beginning, where I thought it was broken. Give it 20-30 shots/cups and it’ll start tasting more normal. I’ve had mine for 3 years now and love it

Honestly they all suck

Holy setup batman. Was thinking it was going to be another container I spin up, but it’s enabling kernel modules, needs IOMMU, needs a ton of setup and then it looks like you still have to compile it? For now at least that’s above my needs

Honestly think finally found common ground, and I appreciate the thought out response here. This is the sort of discussion and comment I want to see more of here on Lemmy, thought out good discussion instead of “He’s literally hitler”. That’s really the point I was trying to make, I don’t care about Bill Gates, what I am tired of is everyone demonizing everyone else in the comments and us devolving into reddit comment sections. We’ve been better than Reddit in our comments until recently.

And ad hominem attacks are empty and hollow to me.

The fact that you don’t get the nuance that I’m trying to show and going right to comparing to literally Hitler is exactly my point. That’s not discussion, it’s quite literally the Moral Equivalence fallacy. There have been a few good comments here that made me stop and think, actual discussion, weighing pros and cons. Jumping right to Hitler was not one of them.

I remember when it was required that cameras give a little shutter noise to take a picture, I wish they still did. Would deter a lot of people.

Again, no nuance and going right to black and white

Nothing wrong with eating alone. As I said, I have a new fear of some asshole taking a picture of me eating alone now.
