Americans Are Less Motivated to Work This Year Compared to Last, New Data Shows
  • Shotgun applications to everyone in the field you want to go into, you might end up with your dream job, and know you can find something else should you not like the job you're in, but give it a fair shot before you decide to jump ship.

  • US citizens urged to leave Belarus immediately
  • I hate that this is where I'm at in life too. Hell, at least the mushroom cloud would be a quick death if you're close enough! Better than dying in the Water Wars or Mother Nature saying we fucked up.

  • Sync is back on the Play Store, but it's not a third-party Reddit app anymore
  • As long as the masses don't all flock to just one server, the next time reddit fucks up it'll be a much softer place to land. The only problem is the niche communities and they're survivability when transferring over.

    This really does feel like the early days of reddit. Where small, niche communities have to just keep plugging along until they hit a self-sustaining number of active users, and I didn't realize how much I missed that till I came here.

  • What was the saddest meal you have ever eaten?
  • Nah, that ain't sad, I straight up made this the other night because it's comfort food for when I'm being lazy. Got my bowls and posted up in front of the TV and watched cartoons, best meal of the week.

  • When someone is venting, am I supposed to say something?
  • I've had this happen quite a few times to me, and I've come to the best question for this.

    "Do you want to just vent or would you like advice?"

    Some people just need to get it off their chest and talk to something, IT professionals call this The Rubber Duck Effect, helps them work through the problem by explaining it to someone else. Asking if they'd like advice or just vent lets you know what kinds of questions to ask. You do still need to be listening but hopefully this helps!

  • HFY - Humanity Fuck Yeah! (Information about the community and rules)
  • Honestly, if we can somehow make a bot for that and have it working early, I don't see why we couldn't. Make it a poll that closes after 24/48 hours that then autosorts them into the genre in a wiki of some variety.

    I'm all for it, but I'm not even remotely proficient at that stuff though so someone smarter than I would need to figure out that problem.

    Edit: just remembered I was part of the mod team at that time. We were talking about 10s of thousands of posts, a lot of which were archived, that we would need to go back through and we didn't have the manpower for something like that. If we do it from the get go it should work fairly well.

  • In-ear headphone solution?
  • The problem with in-ear headphones is they do get extremely uncomfortable after awhile. Would a pair of over-ears with a bigger cups/more padding press down on your glasses still?

    If you don't need a mic, look into studio headphones from companies like Senneheiser. You'll end up paying more but I've had a pair for over a decade and they still sound beautiful.

  • Differentiating /c/meowmeow
  • You can never have too many cat communities. Sounds like you found a niche to go with, just curate to that and eventually it'll fill up! Nothing better than a bunch of cats taking up my feed!
