  • A friend recently started a group for feeding the homeless in our city. When we can, my wife and I buy some food and water and spend an afternoon handing it out. It isnt much and our taxes should be going to help these unfortunate folks but it helps and shows them there is still some humanity out there. It is a reminder to be thankful.

  • This has been my experience too. I have noticed the women I have trained learned faster, paid attention and did the work to the letter. The guys on the other hand, I would have to babysit and keep checking up on them.

    What annoys me is the pay discrepancy too, I always make sure to speak up to management if I have a female on the team that I feel is being underpaid and I encourage them to ask for a decent raise when it is merited. It is a small act but equal responsibility deserves equal pay. Be the change and all that.

  • Nobody ever went to their deathbed wishing for more certifications.

  • They already feel they are better, thats why we get laws for thee but not for me.

  • That is some next level copium, No way will AI or robots give us more free time. It will be used to give us the boot so they dont need to pay us wages and benefits.

    It could facilitate a massive change in society but that is not profitable in the short term so it won't be considered. It will be business as usual with more money for the insatiable greed of the ruling class.

  • Nothing this week but Paddington 3 last week.

  • They were great back in the day too. I used to have to use a ps2 to write to it as it had the weird connection at the back, I forget what it was called.

    I remember I had discs of Tupac , Nirvana and Linken Park. There was others but thats all that stands out.

    I use to use it when skating and unlike a discman it never skipped. It eventually died when I forgot to take out expired batteries and they leaked all over it.

    So reminder take your batteries out when not in use

  • Same and I got it second hand too, it is really convenient and works great with calibre.

  • I got a second hand 2011 model for free. I leave it in airplane mode and copy the books over via USB after converting them with calibre. I would not buy an amazon e-reader in the future. Simply because they are a shitty company.

  • Thanks for the heads up.

  • Buy a cheap second hand phone just for those apps and leave it at home.... That way if you lose your phone you are not locked out

  • Well done to everyone who didn't buy their shit ✊🏴‍☠️

  • Probably best to ease into it when the financial infrastructure is in place and has matured and there is someone less reckless at the helm in the US. Right now no one wants to deal with McDonald Trump's tantrums

  • Also the FBI took signal to court and the only data they could provide was the date of signup and last login timestamp

  • That was an interesting read. Thanks for sharing

  • Have you tried electrum ?
