  You really can’t be both at the same time.

  After this election I’ve had to cut a bunch of people out of my life, even relatives. A lot of them saying such wonderful things as “trump’s just saying things, he doesn’t actually mean anything he’s saying.” And then they’d get defensive when I’d ask them why they votes for him then if he doesn’t mean anything he says.

  It’s really hard to cut people out of your life but afterwards it’s amazing realizing that you don’t need to tip toe around things that may be vaguely political (or explicitly) anymore to not start an argument.

  Having your bare feet in the grass feels so goddamn good and I’m tired of pretending that it doesn’t feel great

  Sucks to suck, I’m so looking forward to easy cancellation from services.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit says it is not covered by new Online Safety Code as it has moved its jurisdiction to the Netherlands⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s more a “If a company doesn’t comply with a coutry’s regulations then it can’t operate in that country” thing and not a joke.

  For example Twitter when it was blocked in Brazil for a little while because they didn’t want to pay a fine for not complying with some of their regulations.

  Sounds like it’ll need blocked in Ireland then

  Ah gotcha

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨10001⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It really is, the average time loss injury in our company is usually upwards of 30k down the drain. And just an accident can be catastrophic in terms of cost as well.

  A BBQ compared to that is nothing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨10001⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Less than Truck Load

  Basically if a company want to ship pallets of crap but they don’t have enough to justify using their own truck

  Think TForce, YRC, Oak Harbor, FedEx Freight, etc.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨10001⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I work in the LTL industry, if we go 30 days without an accident or an injury we get a free BBQ day with unlimited food for everyone. We’re talking burgers, hotdogs, chilli, chowder, chips, drinks, etc. Sometimes they even do catering. Our last one they did Hawaiian Food for 2 days (they got too much) which definitely made everyone happy.

  I’ve been there for almost 10 years, we average about 2 per year.

  Personally I just setup a PC as a NAS‡ and installed VLC on my TV so that I can just browse the NAS and play the files directly

  Is it efficient? No.

  Is it the best way? Also no.

  Does it work? Yes, surprisingly well in fact.

  ‡ The first time was simply a network shared folder, the second time was using TrueNAS.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy devs are considering making all votes public - have your say⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Considering making votes public, not considering making mod actions inform the user they occur.

  I can see where they’re priorities are.

  Making votes something mods can see is one thing but public is while other can of worms.
