how's your week going, Beehaw
  • Thank you. Yeah, I’ve been applying to places but a lot of job postings these days are scams. Alcoholism killed my brother just under 2 years ago so I generally try not to drink. Ironic eh? :/

  • Not so great. My mom died a week ago, I got fired 6 weeks into paid family leave and I’ve started to realize that drinking is becoming a habit :(

    overreacting rule
  • Thank you for your kind words. There’s been a lot of that the past month or so. At this point I am probably going to start over.

  • As someone who just got fired while on family leave to care for their mother on her deathbed, I feel this.

    Does anyone regret deleting their Reddit account?
  • It was tough at first, but I haven't logged in or looked since deleting all of my comments. The only time I go there now is when I absentmindedly click a Google result.

    Liftoff. Lemmy app. Do you like the way it works now?
  • Liftoff feels like a love letter to Relay for Reddit. It's just missing a quick toggle to move thumbnails to the left or right in compact view.

    Props for referencing the NoPoop meme in the settings too 🤣

    Operating system market share (mobile and desktop combined).
  • Something one of my college professors pointed out a long time ago is that a lot of DVD players and smaller consumer electronics ran a custom version of Linux. Here we are 10-15 years later, with Android being easier to work with. It's probably replaced a lot of those Linux installations.

    More on your point, the giant smart display/kiosks in each room at the allergy clinic I went to last year still ran Android 10. Because I had to spend long periods of time alone waiting to see if I was allergic to things, I ended up tinkering and managed to get it out of Kiosk mode and setting a security policy lol (don't worry I reverted my changes and let them know!)

    Hands-on: Pixel’s upcoming Dashcam feature is solid but demands accessories
  • 2 or 3 of those would cause pretty extreme screen dimming and slowness with my Pixel 7 Pro. I drive a lot so now it's my kiddo's daily driver lol
