    Interviews
  • I was just going to say something similar to this. The job application is an assessment for your technical abilities/skills for the job.

    The interview is a second assessment to gauge your personality and communication to make sure it's a fit for the team.

    There are VERY few jobs where you can work in isolation. Teamwork, personality and communication are important for almost all jobs. Hench the assessment that gauges those aspects.

    Can someone look into my lemmyworld history to see if I am over posting so I don't get banned?
  • I just went through your post history and imo, I think your content driven posts are fine. Some have a lot of up votes and some have good engagement as well.

    Where it seems you get issues, is with other users in your 1:1 interactions. Direct Don questions-as-posts and comments give off an energy of excitement, which is not bad in and of itself, but then your follow ups people feel you're not taking their feedback, or you want other people to do things for you when they have no stake in the request or question.

    I think if you created two accounts, one purely content, and the other direct Don questions-as-posts and comments, your pure content account would be completely fine on this platform.

  • That's some good feedback. First time riders doing wheelies off the bat. Sounds like a proper starter bike to me!

    Personally, I'm not a new ride and storage is a pretty big piece of for me. I need to transport a full gym duffle bag, and my lunch bag during the work weeks.

    Thanks for the input!

    Trump says he has 'no choice' but to support electric vehicles because Elon Musk 'endorsed me very strongly'
  • No, you're right. But I think this is specifically a message to the oil industry.

  • Nah. Imo, this is him telling oil company that they need to step up and fully fund his requests for money "or else". Didn't he recently ask the oil industry for an insane amount of money at the beginning of his campaign or something?

  • Wow that's super good insight! When I was looking to buy my next one the online community kept bringing me back to this bike for it's ease of use and versatility. With your comment I can see why.

    What do you ride instead?

    Mirror recommendations please
  • I didn't have any recommendations per se, but one thing I think would be very useful and functional are tall mirrors stems.

    I ride a Harley with standard mirrors above the handles, and I always have to take me eyes off the road to glance at what is behind me. But if my mirrors were like 3 or 4 inches taller, I think they'd be in my natural field of vision.

    My suggestion would be to try and find some taller ones.

  • Not sure. I live in California so our emissions standards are pretty strict which usually translates into very quiet bikes off the lot regardless of make or model.

    If you want to polute everyone's ears you'll definitely need to to a stage 1 on it.

  • Right. Top pick for sure. However I'm made at Honda right now. I've got a 2010 Honda car and the paint is getting messed up, the interior "leather" is deteriorating, and the headliner is coming off from the foam. And I take decent care of my things. But this is happening to all the Hondas I see around me that are the same model and approximately the same year.

    So I'll need some time to repair my relationship with Honda. Maybe they build their bikes differently?

  • Although it's not a part of the retro series, it's engine is in a similar displacement class as the other two.

    Those pipes, such a clean design. Still in the upright/naked competition for my next bike. For 2024 I guess they're coming with an e-clutch. With this you still have to shift with your for, but you don't have to pull the clutch.

    The riding position looks a little too aggressive, but I still want to sit on one to see how it feels. It does come with a price tag of ~$9,400 MSRP which is on the priceier side of this class.

    Anyone have one of these with the e-clutch?

    Does anyone have one? This one is in my top as a contender for my next bike. It's a little pricier with a smaller engine than the XSR700 so not sure which way to choose.

    I play on the easiest mode and that damn whole stealth chain of missions was awful. Hated every moment of it. Forget if you never put points into stealth, then it'd truly be impossible.

    Like when you mind control, why do the other NPCs and turrets think they're enemies and start blasting their own homie who's just trying to run to a corner? Also sometimes the social popped up but I couldn't mind control, even as hidden.

    Had to blast some NPCs multiple times during those quests just to get out of the chain cuz it was basically impossible do it undetected.

    What are your preferred skills to put your points into early on that have the biggest impact?

    Feel free to break it down by play style: stealth, fighting, exploring, etc.

    Hello. Idk where to post this idea, I have no idea about game engines or game development, and I am also not creative so this might already exist.

    But it'd be cool to have a game based on anxiety in the style of the Simpson's arcade game. You have to go shopping with a grocery list, and before you enter you have to fight off kids selling candy bars, people asking to sign petitions, people trying to convert you you their religion. Then once you're inside you have to fight off kids running loose, slow grandma's, apathetic workers who get in your way etc. Then the items are hard to find or they are always changing locations.

    The goal is just to get your grocery shopping done, or other everyday outside tasks that are made difficult by anxiety.

    Cool, thanks for your time and reading this far.

    So from my understanding, I can block an instance which prevents it from showing in my feed.

    However, if the instance I post to (.world) is not blocked on the receiving instance's end (Meta), they will still get my post (unless defederated)?

    If so, doesn't that open up the idea that Meta will be able to scrape and take ALL the data from ALL the (still federated) instances' posts that are not blocked by the Meta instance(s)? How can I protect my information from Meta while still being federated, or is that not possible?
