Cinnamon is, straight up, the best. The only annoying part is that damn debugger thing that shows up that damn and useless LookingGlass thing which defaults to Super+L. Super+L definitely should be Lock Screen instead.

Yes, schools are businesses these days. Businesses don’t want to actually do effort to get consent.

…that’s assuming that apps actually respect that environment variable. The problem is that if the app is writing to ${HOME} then they’re already not following XDG spec.

Yes it’s true. Why go to the office just to be on Zoom all day? I can do that at home and save myself some money. More importantly: I can do that from home and save myself the time it would take to drive to or from the office. Not to mention that I could be on Zoom all day from home and save myself the stress of driving around maniacs. Last, but not least, I could do it all from home and the company could save money by not paying for an office.

Add tmux and you’ve got almost everything I install on a fresh install of any distro.

Almost everything. The last thing is vim.

1. I work from home so that I don’t have to go to the office.

2. I don’t have to go to the office.

3. Let me work fewer days. 4x10 days would be nice. From home. So I don’t have to go to the office.

4. I don’t want to go to the office just to be on Zoom all day anyway. It’s a waste of time, a waste of carbon, and a waste of company money on the office space.

Take the time estimates that this bully gives you. Tell them the time estimates are way off. Take their estimate, multiply it by three. So, if it would have taken 3 days, then it will really take 9 – that’s two whole weeks of 40 hours each. If it would have taken 3 months then it will really have taken 9 months.

When you get a calendar invite and this asshole bully accepts it for you, make sure to include that cost in your time estimate.

And make sure to stick to your 8 hours each day. If you didn’t get work done because some asshole bully filled your calendar with meetings and left you with no time to work, and then also made stupid decisions about the entire codebase, make sure to report that to your manager. Your manager needs to know when time estimates are going to slip.

That dipshit will start to figure out how much time it really takes to get work done. It might take a while though for that to be learned so bear with it.

What work do you try to do?

I suggest that, instead of changing employers, you address this bully head on.

• Tell him that your employer pays you whether you feel happy or not, and it’s not his choice to that.

• Tell him that your employer would have already fired you if your employer felt you weren’t worth the money they pay you.

• Tell him that your coworkers would have been telling you how awful you are, if you truly were awful.

• Talk to your coworkers about this bully. He might be bullying them too!

So… not the United States. France, maybe? Germany?

Ooooh I’m definitely overthinking things

thanks for the clarify

That sounds like a great plan. Unfortunately I think it’s ill-conceived.

To demonstrate, I’d like you to take this survey: https://novehiclesinthepark.com/

Then read up on some of the discussions from the time https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36453856

Rules can be interpreted in many ways and your rules of porn/nsfl/nsfw might not conform to other peoples’ rules of porn/nsfl/nsfw. It’s not exactly an easy problem to solve.

Today I learned “high cocoa chocolate” is a natural food.

… wait, is that right? Chocolate is a processed food. Chocolate isn’t a natural food. High-cocoa chocolate is a processed food. High-cocoa chocolate isn’t a natural food.

Can someone fix my brain plz?

If it’s a child that’s putting things on the stove that don’t belong there (or any other hot surface) then it’s a child that needs to be taught better by their parents.

imagine a smart stove top that lights up a towel

Who in their right mind puts a towel on a cooking surface whether the surface is in use or not? That’s begging for problems to occur.

If an employer or prospective employer rescinds their job offer, or makes significant changes to the employment contract, through no fault of your own then you may have reason to engage an attorney and discuss Promissory Estoppel.

I am not a lawyer but it’s worth knowing the laws :)

I have an nvidia discrete GPU in my laptop. It works fine.

You might be surprised to learn that multiple distros have control panel equivalent of driver managers and event logs.

I would hope whoever does the investigation would reveal simply if this is true or not and if so to what extent (like is everything Madison said 100% true, is most of it, is a little, or none of it)

Keep it balanced. The investigation should only state what changes to the company are recommended as a result of the investigation. If staffing changes are recommended, then no statement of why. Further information is relevant only to the parties involved. Anything else can cause further problems.
