dear introverts, what can I answer to a needy and clingy coworker who believes not talking means something's wrong (with me), so he leaves me alone?
  • Telling someone you are attracted to them and asking them out is not sexual harassment. It might be against workplace rules, but that depends on the workplace. Having consensual sex with someone after a date is also not sexual harassment. It could be seen as "quid pro quo" if one of them is the other's boss.

    If at any point the person asks you to stop and you continue, then that is sexual harassment.

    Am I insane?
  • Put the same text in 6 different languages (maybe: English, Mandarin Chinese, Hindi, Russian, Arabic, and Bengali to get as many scripts as possible?) on each side of the cube. Be the Rosetta Stone of the future. Be sure to get a native speaker to look over each text before you comission it.

    That should be enough work to discourage you. :)

    Yo, I found this for 380$ should I buy it and how well does Linux run on it, if you have one of this is it a good in term of build quality
  • My husband has had an MSI bravo for a few years. Uses it constantly, and it's great. No issues outta it whatsoever. However, he does not use Linux on it. He prefers to dual boot and the SSD is a little small for that (if you also want to install games).

    Happy Halloween!
  • Wow. I thought a cocaine key was like short for kilo. Which I guess is an insane amount.

    I never thought about putting the cocaine in the line etched into a key.

    More straight couples are calling each other partner. Here’s why
  • Nobody asked, but as a gay man I exclusively refer to my husband as "my husband." I never liked the term "partner." We didn't start a business together, and we're not cops. "Life partner" bothers me less, but it still seems stilted

    Microsoft has a big Windows 10 problem, and only one year to solve it
  • How much RAM do the systems have? 8gb? The delay may be in the system making room in ram for the program. Win11 is so ram hungry. It's stupid.

    We Just Got More Evidence That Long COVID Is a Brain Injury
  • It's absolutely ridiculous how many people drive their kids to school. The traffic reduction during fall break last week was astounding.

  • If they're US American, a plane is likely the only public transportation they've ever taken. If they live anywhere remotely rural, it's likely the only one available to them.

  • Hello all!

    My new phone (Moto G Stylus 5G 2024 running Android 14) keeps giving me this alert that an app is giving full screen notifications. The app in question is the freaking telephone app, which I of course want full screen notifications from! There's no option to disable the alert. (The two choices are "go to options" and "not now," by the way. And "go to options" takes you to the telephone app's notification settings.) I cannot seem to find a setting related to this, and I've disabled every Motorola app (including system apps) that I can find in the app list. Although, some of them don't allow disabling.

    Anybody familiar with this by chance? I'm getting this stupid alert for every other phone call.

    Thank you!

    I've tried to find them to no avail. I'm guessing the box sets just aren't made anymore, but I figured it's worth asking in case there's some obscure one out there somewhere.

    To clarify, I'm looking for a more recent Linux version. I know the older ones can be found on auction sites and the like.

    I remember finding them on the Internet somewhere in the early 2000s. I remember that Kimi was one of them, so it would have to have been after the second movie (Rugrats in Paris). Anybody remember these things? I can't find any details about them online.

    When I am making a post or a comment through jerboa, I am having a weird issue where if I backspace/delete, the text of the word I'm writing will combine with the word before it.

    As an example, if I type

    > The quick brown foz

    And I backspace to fix the typo, I get this

    > The quick brownfo

    If I keep backspacing to fix the problem, it keeps combining words like this

    >Thequickbrown

    It's very annoying and sometimes I have to delete entire sentences and start over. Also, if I have a wall of text and click somewhere in the text to make an edit, sometimes it will keep typing where I was before. Also annoying.

    Does anybody else have this issue? It could be a product of my keyboard, which is Open Board from F-Droid. But I usually only have issues like this when trying to type my information into websites that aren't designed for mobile. (Fennec, if it matters.)

    I chose my instance 9 or so months ago purely because it was suggested by the Jerboa app at the time. In lieu of making numerous accounts to access communities that aren't federated with my instance, I was hoping to make a second account with a very "federated" instance. Any suggestions?

    Despite being here for a while, I've mostly been a lurker til recently and haven't learned a lot. Thanks in advance.
