Some office administrative was going to be fired, but due to timezone confusion all her accounts were terminated before HR got to the office.

For half of the morning somebody had to pretend to be checking with IT why her computer didn’t work.

I worry the day Lemmy becomes inundated by Russian bots and…, oh hey Hexbear and ml, what are you doing here? Promoting genocide again?

Sorry I got distracted.

I don’t think normal people use cash over the phone. I think you’re thinking Star trek teleporters?

I thought this was for employees of the bank on the work phone.

If my bank does this, they can kiss goodbye my $254.21.

I guess the downloads, music… Folders will be available. Basically what an app can access, this should be able to access too

It’s not the same to continue with the joke and to completely miss the point and complain about it.

The first is funny, the second is sad. I believe I had to clarify that for you

There’s still some Russia left. But hopefully Ukraine will change that soon :)

That was my point. They (forum users, I don’t think actual developers) insisted that it’s a middle solution. That I could use the application and whitelist only the browser and that some JS could bypass the VPN and get the real IP.

I got two years of Nord for that same reason, then two of Proton that’s about to end, so this was probably around 4 years ago.

Browser extension for the VPN? I remember asking in the forums some time back and they were extremely hostile to the idea.

I learnt history and religions. To me honest, this is a very common bit of knowledge, you need to be extremely closed minded to not know it. In India is EVERYWHERE and it’s very common in Japan too.

I love how you try to imply something nefarious here “so you know something I do not? Maybe you’re evil!” It’s the most Spanish inquisition shit I’ve seen in the last 2 centuries.

If you’re going to oppose something, you might as well have some superficial knowledge of it. Case and point https://thesatanictemple.com/blogs/the-satanic-temple-tenets/there-are-seven-fundamental-tenets

But of course, of you think being ignorant is amoral thing…

Maybe don’t use as arguments things you intentionally don’t know about?

You basically made the best case against your position. Getting high and might instead of actually considering what that could mean seems very shortminded

That last example is extremely bad and reeks of bad faith argument. Eating apples, as with fruits and fresh produce in general, has been tested multiples times and some of it’s benefits measured.

There’s already a general consensus that they are “beneficial”. A study that says “apples are good for you” wouldn’t add anything unless they are good in a way that wasn’t known before. For example, do they have a different and unknown impact in people with a specific condition?

Of course if the study doesn’t have any real study behind and just says things like “apples are good because they are fruits” then it can be labeled as pseudoscience.

I do use it for day to day, even work. Not saying it’s bad, but when you have an issue, you’re basically alone. For example I’m still using the image from Feb 14th because all the newer ones boot to black (clean image, nothing layered).

I’m hoping at some point a newer one will eventually work, the same way it stopped working on Jan 16th and worked again early Feb.

I can sort of deal with it, but wouldn’t recommend based on my experience.

You should, but every single one I’ve tried resulted in no boot (printer drivers, zoom application because flatpack doesn’t work well with SSO…) Also, it’s yet another way of installing applications to learn. And if anything goes wrong a few image updates later, good luck identifying what the reason was. Definitely wouldn’t recommend for beginners

Bazzite user here. For gaming it’s great… Until it’s not. Let me explain.

Out of the box, as pure steam machine is fantastic. Everything just works. But if you try to deviate, thighs get hairy.

It’s inmutable, so almost all your apps need to be flatpack/appimages. If those don’t work, you need to pray distro box can help. For some uses I had to do a lot of weird workarounds.

The main problem I have is that every now and then an update breaks the system. It’s not a big problem as you can rollback easily, without affecting home, but it’s a learning curve and very infuriating to see AGAIN boot to black and hope next update will fix it.

Some seem to argue not even one of them is needed…

My message and a slightly different location said by another user. Hope it helps

shalafi@lemmy.world You got me in the right place! Phone settings -> Spam and Call Screen -> Call Screen Spam

Pixel phone user, the built in spam blocker seems very reliable. When something goes through I use the call screening feature.

the bad advice is getting upvoted.

But… You are the most upvoted comment… And seems good advice… I’m so confused
