From a business standpoint I would never want to hire that accountant. If he openly talks about employees that way and being a bad customers to others he would probably also be a very bad supplier.

Companies would rather cut their noses of in the end of a quarter, to claim a weight loss, than do something that would spell positive results for its lifetime...

A backlog can get low? That sounds so bizarre 😅

So far I've gotten Kenshi. I'm having hopes for it but a bit slow ATM.

It's amusing to see my own post reposted here 😅

Edit: no, I'm just audhd and forgot that I had posted it myself 😂

Yup, that's my experience as well.

I thought that they just did? 🤔

Of course, with the economy and the shrinking middle class there soon won't be a layer 2 and 3 to be in conflict...

Ouch, yes, you're right.

I still think that one should pass the shame on to the employers but I'll amend that to not put the employee in the middle of it all.

Conspiracy theory it is. What has happened to the internet is much more easily explained by capitalism. This is what capitalism does.

I bet that you don't need to follow that conspiracy theory very far before you find someone spouting the old classical antisemitic bullshit.

Pass the awkwardness on and place yourself on the side of the employee and shame the employer:
"Oh man this is wild! Just to think that your employers has the audacity to instead of raising your salary to compensate inflation, they just passed that cost onto your customers. I would be so mad if I were you, to be forced to hope for the kindness of strangers instead of getting a liveable salary."

He is unfortunately a fan of Roblox and they lately kicked all Linux users to the curb. That's the main problem with changing him over to a different os.

I have seriously considered changing the os to distro of Linux. He is unfortunately a fan of Roblox and they lately kicked all Linux users to the curb.

Like it's just resume fodder for them?

I'm guessing that's it. Or maybe using their signature as commercials? 🤔

But all of this is if you at all find a page where an actual person has asked a question. Most results on Google when searching an bsod error code is a number of pages spouting the same tired answers that doesn't actually work.

The glass cliff...

I've had my fair share of fixing on my Linux box, but I never get anywhere near as angry/frustrated as I do any time I have to fix things on my kids windows computers.

It's easy to get stuck in a filter bubble though.

I recently had the misfortune of trying to fix a problem on my kids windows computer and it's striking the difference between Linux and windows forums.

A Linux forum:
"RTFM but here's four commands that will fix your problem plus fix a bunch of things you didn't even know you had a problem with"

A windows forum:
"My name is Mr Anderson and has been awarded high quality question answerer three years running plus best cut lawn by the HOA. I am not affiliated in any way with Microsoft so don't go running to them if you mess up your computer.

Here is fifty eleven things to click on that is highly dependent on the language set on the computer and which is likely changed by Microsoft since I wrote this. The instructions are also highly general and in no way specific for your actual problem."

"Det funkade så bra med Gmail och Facebook...".
Jag tror tror att det var mycket det faktiskt och att Google då glömde att både Gmail och Facebook var distinkt annorlunda från varandra. Med Gmail kunde man kommunicera med andra som har mail och Facebook var begränsad geografiskt vilket gjorde att man ändå kunde procentuellt känna många där.
Men med G+ så började man helt på noll. Det var inte ens som Lemmy nu där folk kan söka sig till liknande grupper som på Reddit.

And the extra costs to support a feature I never use.

For me it's mostly the executive load of making an appointment. With long hair my wife could trim it and now with short hair I can cut it myself with a hair trimmer.
