- Comment on what's your take on employers banning the use of languages other than English between coworkers at the workplace? 21 hours ago:
“Never” is carrying a lot of weight here. Leaving people out can be super effective, especially if they’re not needed for a task. They might be needed in 20 minutes when it’s time to do their thing, but if a group doesn’t need that person and can communicate more effectively without using that persons language, there’s no need.
Imagine an EMT crew. All of the medics speak Spanish and the ambulance driver only speak English. He needs to know how to get to the emergency, and which hospital to take the victim to, among some other things I’m sure. But I don’t want my all Spanish EMT crew fucking around in English and miscommunicating with each other just to make the driver feel more comfortable.

For a while I was the only non-spanish speaker on a shipyard barge loading / cleaning crew. The other guys spoke varying degrees of English and I was learning Spanish. Despite the job being incredibly dangerous with huge overhead weight, cranes, massive ships on floating docks, and other heavy equipment abound, we had no real accidents and communicated well. If I didn’t need to know a thing, it was probably said in Spanish. Buy, we kept all radio comms in English, for my sake and for safety.
We decided that, as the workers. Not because some Karen didn’t like Spanish. As long as the work is done safely and communication is timely and in a language understandable by the intended recipients there is not issue. Karen can fuck off.
As a joke you should all go in on a copy Rosetta Stone for her.

I like codeberg simply because it is pronounceable.

I try to do the same. My cat can get a little carried away with his toys and sometimes they’ll get swatted into the toilet
- Comment on Hmm this "unisex" bathroom seems biased... 5 days ago:
If you raise it, put it back down when you’re done. If you put it down, put it back up when you’re done. That seems fair.
Alternatively, if there’s a lid, close the lid when you’re done. Then everyone is equally “inconvenienced”.

Shitty that youtube is adding upscaling and altering people’s videos without an opt out. I’m with you there. It’s not necessary and if I was a creator, I’d be upset about the quality of my art being altered by a gallery without my knowledge.

Idt that it’s AI, but don’t have Instagram to further confirm my suspicions.
- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 5 weeks ago:
Setup a firewall and black access to websites where they’re able to download other browsers. Then change the icon for Firefox to Chrome’s icon. For bonus points, you can probably find a firefox theme to make it look more like chrome.
