  • It is something else to have to explain to seasoned techs that if they aren't parsing the issue as a people problem or a technical problem right off the bat, they are going to end up wasting a lot of time. Like how did you not come to this a long time ago? You can't fix people problems.

  • the interesting thing about dyslexia, is that its different in every language and the rates are similar but lean in different directions for different languages making it hard to detect and diagnose. But mostly because dyslexia is a written language reading and writing situation, its only recently in human history that so many people can read and write.

    What to do with glassware that is impossible to clean
  • Probably depends on where you live but if its gross just put it in the garbage. If you are concerned about the workers safety, put it in a box and fill the box with other trash so it doesn't present a danger. Not all glass can be recycled even if its put into the recycling bin. But even glass that is not recyclable can be used for lots of other things. One of the cool things I discovered a bunch of years ago is that junk glass that isn't recyclable can be used to capturing methane from old landfill (they create a thick layer of crushed glass on the top of the old landfill and then cover that with a membrane and then they can suck the gas that is stuck between the glass layer and the membrane.)

    It's like they are inviting us to find out what will trigger it haha

    Banning Spree?
  • I was browsing scaled and found a post that was dumb from that community and downvoted it. It only had a 1 score, so I took it to 0

    I wonder if that will do it

  • I got banned from one of the politics communities for calling out someone using the "blue maga" phrase. I called them ambitious and then called called them weirdo and got my comment removed for "attack language", when I quested the mod they banned me for a few days. I will avoid any communities that mod is a part of.

  • You clearly don't understand what you're trying to say. It's a problem with this style of communication. Your putting to much value on your idea of what anecdotal evidence is. I'm not making presumptions about anything beyond my personal experiences. There's no facts I can use outside of voting records and the words people use and the actions they take. You can call it antidotal evidence but that's a poor direction because it's like everything is anecdotal if someone wants to be argumentive. Everything is anecdotal at some point https://listen-hard.com/psychological-research-and-methodology/anecdotal-evidence-psychology/

    I live in a conservative part of Washington, surrounded by even more conservative communities on the other side of the state boarder with Idaho. My city is an island of moderate voting but leaning right. It's not very hard to get a sense of what the local politics are.

    Do you know what that is like?

    Let me give you an example. https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Matt_Shea

    Matt Shea was a local government official. He's made world news doing questionable shit. He's made a religious manifesto. He is a local conservative leader where I live. He was on stage with the previous mayor of Spokane. The election results are clearly factual. That mayor didn't lose in a landslide. Matt Shea was rejected by the Republican Elites but I think his endorsement of Trump has a stronger appeal to the Republicans in Eastern Washington than Dick Cheney.

    Shea acknowledged that he had distributed a four-page manifesto which called for the killing of non-Christian males if a war were to occur and they do not agree to follow fundamentalist biblical law

    This is reality.

    It's hard to NOT see all the parts and make a conclusion that local conservative voters don't care what the National Republican Party thinks.

    Psychology isn't a good science especially if you're trying to apply it to politics.

    I really like this window on one of the EWU campus buildings

    Eastern Washington University located in Cheney, WA USA

    Lots of turn of the century buildings with modern updates. They have done a good job keeping the updated parts looking like they belong with the antique architecture.

    My wife and I are looking to have a vacation in Scotland and we're trying to figure out what we should plan. We are American but don't care for tourists traveling. I love to feel a more realistic local experience. My favorite memories of our Ireland trip are small town pubs and rural scenic places. The museums like the one in Trinity College was good too. I enjoyed walking the backstreets of Dublin and finding the Stags Head pub.

    Thank you for any advice.

    Anyone else notice that lemmy.world federation seems to be broken? All my communities with them (and probably more instances) appear to be devoid of activity.

    It seems that the server was broken for more then 24 hours and I wasn't sure who to contact. So, who do we ask to reboot or fix the instance if its down?

    So I'm noticing that I don't seem to get any engagement when I'm posting replies to posts generated on other instances. Just now I thought I'd go directly to a thread on lemmy.world to see if my comment was showing there but it isn't. Other non lemmy.world users are showing up.

    Does anybody else notice this or is it just me?

    Example: https://lemmy.sdf.org/comment/6595136 My comment

    https://lemmy.world/comment/6161325 Where the thread originally was posted

    Edit: the issue appears to have resolved
