I really hate how mobile hotspot is considered separate from regular data. It’s the same especially if your mobile speeds are are capped anyway. It’s like dental not being included in your health insurance as if your teeth aren’t part of your body.

I don’t have any. I instead subscribe to as many communities I find interesting and set my feed to only my subscriptions. I rarely venture out to All and only do when I want to discover more communities.

The heat index in my city right now as I type this comment is 42C/107F. And summer is just starting. This is gonna suck.

As someone who took the plunge and moved halfway across the world, this comment really resonates with me and I understand your perspective. But hey, maybe Dubai can be a stepping stone instead of a final destination. Once you establish yourself there and (hopefully) earn enough (that you otherwise won’t be able to do in your home country), you can probably try to explore moving to a third country if the dream doesn’t go away. Good luck!

That’s the beauty of decentralization. If a billionaire somehow wants to buy a lemmy instance (unlikely), and the instance owners agree (unlikely), users will just switch to a different instance and other instances will just defederate from it (likely).

My wife says cream cheese and fruit jams/preserves.

A cozy EP, one that you can usually hear in jazz, fusion, and r&b.

An 8-string guitar with a clear heavy djent tone, like Meshuggah, Tesseract, and Animals As Leaders.

Freshman year. Me and a guy from another class got pulled in by the guidance counselor. He told us some girls from a higher year told him we brought porno mags to school. We were literally just a few months into high school and I barely knew the other guy. Maybe that was their idea of a prank? Anyway, nothing came out of it fortunately.

Can anyone see anywhere they say when it takes effect? They don’t say it on the official announcement either.

QR coding everything. It has it uses and is practical in certain use-cases, but don’t use it everywhere.

We have our very own Karen in our neighborhood. She’s the type who’s always mad in the neighborhood group chat. Like saying she has her husband kill any snake they see because she hates them, even though other people were saying some snakes aren’t venomous and actually help with keeping rats at bay. There was also a time where I mentioned outdoor cats (there is one in our neighborhood), while great at controlling rats, can also potentially decimate other wildlife like birds, etc. And she just scoffed and said she doesn’t care. Whenever someone alerts the group that there are suspicious people walking around or something, she always responds with “locked and loaded” or “shoot first before asking”, etc.

Anyway, if there’s one thing the entire neighborhood, including the Karen, is united in, it’s our hate for the useless corporate HOA. So on that front, I’m fine letting her loose on the HOA. We had the annual HOA meeting recently and while homeowners were taking turns airing their grievances on zoom, the Karen was blasting the neighborhood group chat because she couldn’t figure out how to unmute herself or type into the zoom chat lmao. So all she could do was swear in the group chat and telling us she was shouting at the HOA that they were liars, etc. even though nobody could hear her. Anyways, it wouldn’t have been productive if she could speak in the meeting because she’ll just swear and bitch at them, instead of the cooler heads who were making sure the HOA takes notes and commits to fixing the issues with timelines. We had lawyer and accountant homeowners who were more productive in getting what we needed.

Fantastic! Been waiting for this for a long time.

The calendar view can’t be configured to fit a full 24 hour day and you have to scroll.

But can it djent?

I assume MS-DOS.

Damn, I’m not there, but I swear my artist profile is real. lol

Like the Haitian Zombies? I just saw a documentary and the dude paid a lot of money to see a scam happen in real time.

A belt-like loofa that you hold on both ends and pull from side to side.

The thing at the back looks like a massive Strandbeest.

I can’t really say if there are degree filters in my company’s recruiting process, but I do know if they get far enough to reach the technical interview stage and I’m part of the interview panel, we don’t really care if the applicant has a degree or not. What we look at is experience and knowledge/skills. I wouldn’t recommend lying because HR does perform background checks.
