Am I dumb or what’s up with the radio stuff on the left? 😅 Is rust common for some sort of radio programming?

Huh. I used to write notes to myself a few years ago when I was still in school and would get super drunk. “Look up modular synths,” was one of my notes and I never went and actually did it. This is probably my calling to learn about them 🤔.
In my own kitchen we have one light switch which turns on about separate bulbs. They aren’t white light but it’s close enough to this pic 😂
I will finally be available to fairly and accurately measure all the men in the gym locker room without being suspicious and bringing in a ruler 😤
St. Anger was a banger and I refuse to pretend it’s not 😤
Doesn’t necessarily invalidate anything other than the few American specific sentences. The main point still is there. America might be king of stupid, but does not have a monopoly of stupid.
I think it’s mostly subjective or anecdotal, but what comes to mind:
If anything, the only reason why I still use reddit is for smaller, niche, communities. To that end, yeah Lemmy is smaller, thus the smaller reddit communities are even smaller here. If I find myself wanting to make a post on a given niche topic, I typically post on Reddit AND here. Sometimes, my post on Lemmy will somehow get more comments than reddit still though. Reddit posts seem to fall off after a day or so, that’s not typically the case for Lemmy if you do trend something.
At the end of the day though, this is just a social media platform, and the enjoyment you get out of it comes down to you. ☺️ One tip I do have though is to sort by “Top of 6h” or “12h”. I don’t like the “Hot” sorting on here that much.
I don’t think this is definitively “better” than reddit. The functionality of the site is more bare bones. No big hidden features or anything like that. What you see is what you get as far as interfaces go. But I am enjoying it. It reminds me of a much younger Internet and much simpler times. I am loving that Lemmy servers are run by your average joe who just wanted to start up a Lemmy community. No single CEO who only cares about how profitable a site is.
PWAs (Progressive Web Apps) are their own categories of websites and they do indeed have the ability to behave like an actual app. They are much more than just a shortcut, which apple is reducing them to.
On android, my PWA that I developed for fun can go full screen and appear as though a browser isn’t wrapping the page, I can send notifications, I can access the microphone and camera, I can do nearly everything you could expect an app to do, I can support offline mode, I can store data locally, and I can manage my PWAs permissions as well as uninstall my app at an OS level. My entire family uses my PWA, and they see it as an app.
Are there some things native apps can do that PWAs can’t? Absolutely, but that is not the point. PWAs are an open and clearly defined technology to the web. Windows supports them as well.
Apple is refusing to accept that though. They are removing notifications, badges, etc, and reducing them to what you have described, just a shortcut to a Safari window. They are citing security concerns even though other operating systems are able to implement security around them just fine.
The real issue is Apple wants more control over how you use your device and is acting against the consumer.
I won’t have to worry about surge pricing from the Windy’s down the street from me. They’re always dead and I’m amazed it’s open. A “Rush” would have to qualify as more than 2 cars in the drive through lmao
I thought Brad Dourif did a good job for those two episodes for what it’s worth!
Donkeys aren’t free of fascism either
It’s okay guys, the party of small government would absolutely never encroach on abusing their powers!

Not to take away from this, but from my experience as a non-advanced* Spanish speaker, there is some overlap in the Romantic Languages. If you speak slowly enough, you might figure out what you each are saying.
*Spanish was my second language, spoke it only to family growing up. I probably have a low grade school understanding of it. Enough to be dangerous and get around when I went to Madrid, not enough to not sound like an idiot.
Edit: When I wrote this comment, I was thinking of Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish. While French is a romantic language, it can be its own beast.
It’s mid February and I’m in the Midwest. In other words, we’re still comfortably in winter and I’m in an area of the US known for having freezing winters.
The high for today is 74°F (23.3°C) . Outside of the polar vortex the US got which did eventually get us to -10°F (-12.2°C), I haven’t seen us even approach freeing since then.
When I go running around the neighborhood this time of the year, I’m usually in layers, not in tank tops.
See, in the USA this guy would be doomed because we’d rather push him off than give out free food.
This actually looks good. Figures they’d cancel it lol
His eyes are open!

Are you allowed to carry over PTO hours? I might just be a pessimist, but my immediate thought is if they ever have to let anybody go, they don’t want to pay-out accrued PTO hours.
At my previous place, there was one employee that NEVER took PTO for some insane reason. Had saved up like 2 months of PTO.
He was told by HR he had too many hours and needed to use some PTO time. This specific scenario is not unheard of.
However, a month or so after he came back from a month and a half of PTO, he got laid off for reasons unknown to me.
Rumors are they didn’t want to pay-out the PTO.
Honestly it doesn’t make sense, they had to pay him for the PTO anyways, but when has HR made sense?
