modern shows frame things differently to account for people watching on tiny phone screens and we might be bothered a few years down the line when we get holodecks or mind control implants

bullshit like this is getting worse and worse and is why i moved away from windows.

@umbrella@lemmy.ml avatar

i'm running ubuntu. its flawless for me. its less work to set it up how i like it than to remove all the crapware on windows.

if you are running nvidia it might explain the little issues.

the constant cat and mouse game to disable the crap is something i dont miss after switching.

nvidia doesnt follow the standards with their linux driver, its just the windows driver adapted to run on linux. its not bad for gaming ime, but causes all sorts of little issues on the desktop especially if you are running wayland instead of xorg.

its changing though, they opened the source code for it and are currently rewriting the driver with the community. long way to go still though.

not that big of a deal if you choose a distro with good defaults ootb. choosing the right distro is the biggest step imo if you don't want to debug your computer.

nvidia drivers are much less than ideal on linux, it causes all sorts of small issues on the desktop. depends on your setup though, some people run it fine.

U.S. Military Planes Are in Haiti. Haitians Don’t Know Why. ( foreignpolicy.com )

In the past several weeks, I have watched dozens of sleek U.S. military planes descend over Toussaint Louverture International Airport in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, where I live. They were the first flights to land since gangs blockaded and halted commercial air traffic in March. U.S. news reports suggest that the aircraft contained...

@umbrella@lemmy.ml avatar

yeah fuck that, i don't want 24/7 work just because they can theoretically reach my almost dead carcass 24/7.

we need unions asap 🧅

@umbrella@lemmy.ml avatar

on-call people should get a rotation so they aren't on call every single week. which is what usually happens ime.

umbrella , (edited )
@umbrella@lemmy.ml avatar

i got that, the stress is not worth it. the previous generation didnt need to work 24/7 every week to earn what i did with all the commissions included.

get people to rotate out with me. i'd rather get less pay (provided its sufficient for living) than the chronic stress.

@umbrella@lemmy.ml avatar

that is if they actually allow you to make the changes so the systems are reliable.

theres always some boss that doesn't want to swallow his pride and you pay the price for it.

@umbrella@lemmy.ml avatar

you are probably thinking of a terrible union. ive been in those, don't bother with them.

umbrella ,
@umbrella@lemmy.ml avatar

in my country you don't have to join it. i generally take a look at what they do and its real apparent when they suck up to bosses.

most unions are like this nowadays over here, but there are good ones.

i wish! 12 hour rest after a shift would have been awesome.

the solution here is not being luddites, but taking the tech to ourselves, not put it into the hands of some stupid techbro who only wants to see line go up.

according to their bean counters its probably cheaper for them to do the cat and mouse game. they wouldnt be doing it like this otherwise.

not just right wing parties. every country with an aging population needs more young laborers and migrants can help.

fascists just need someone to blame, and someone desperate to do the same work for less pay.

more like when we still believe a burgeois state will put good politicians in power.

agreed. its nice here.

but also some variety can't hurt either.

everyone can reach your device by simply connecting to that (external IP, external port)

to be fair thats the setup most people run when they open ports.
