Oof hell desk, yea I left that behind as fast as I could. It was nice and all being chill not worrying about budgets, policies, "IT business alignment" and such
But god damn if I had to deal with Beatrice's weekly hour+ password reset call one more time I was going to lose it lol

Agreed, the other choice would have resulted in the loss of two individuals with very important individual functions that couldn't realistically be compressed down to one person when they were stranded
The only other option that they could have done was some sort of transporter cloning shenanigans, cloning Tuvix and then separating the "original". But that comes with a whole separate set of ethical implications on its own
The obvious solution then is just using a command to kill the cows.. and probably tell the other kid not to do that again x3
Ohhh, I thought the obvious solution was to just keep throwing more server resources at it in Proxmox LMAO
Is it just me or is it getting harder and harder to tell what's AI generated and what's not?
Unlike the Hot chicks for Trump or whatever, they actually are objectively hot. The MAGAt version was mostly all 50% Plastic and 50% Hate (How they keep the hate side from melting the plastic side idk, liquid nitrogen probably)

I thought being a gamer meant I was prepared. " No "Get off the Nintendo" or "just pause it" from me I naively thought, "I'll be able to play all their games and even enjoy the game!" I was such an idiot.
Nothing could have prepared me for the rapid clip "game surfing". What's worse, I can remember how to play them all just fine from my own childhood, but it's the constant in and out of memory that gets me lol
I know what it feels like to be RAM LMAO
Oh yea I remember now lol
You were going off because I...cracked a joke on a couple threads about .ml lmao, and then you were specifically going off because someone asked for an Eli5 of "the joke"
You should be able to adapt it to a rice cooker, the key to this method is an initial couple minute boil in double the water and then dumping it.
But honestly, the stove is SO much faster once you do it a few times (coming from a former die-hard rice cooker user) I can have rice < 20 minutes on the stove
I cook my rice with the PBA method now
Yea, Phillip told me, but that just makes it funnier, because I was never in that thread until then, so that means I'm living in their head rent free lolol
Regardless, diva has actually called me a Nazi so it was absolutely believable to me they'd make up some shit lol
I just had this weird attack of perspective, man. What the hell am I doing here? I like the idea of talking about politics and keeping up with what's going on in the world, and bouncing ideas off people and hearing new stuff. But it seems like Lemmy in particular is just full of all these super-weird aggressive people who are wrong about everything.
Lemmy is still small, it needs people to push back against these extremely aggressive types to grow, the Lemmy-verse at large is tipping away from the tankies, slowly but surely. There are very few tankie-aligned and even fewer right-wing aligned instances. On Reddit, it wasn't nearly as bad because there were just so many people that unless you were early or on a niche subreddit, the "extremely aggressive" types were downvoted and ridiculed to oblivion already and it was big enough that it wasn't really necessary to do so.
I feel like there's a certain perspective that it's just "oh ho that's the internet for you" but it really just suddenly seemed like a big waste of time. Like here I am really trying to explain to this dude why his MAGA-friendly instance is not popular, or to Diva why someone might want to vote for Kamala Harris thinking that would be a good thing, and for what? What am I gaining from all of this? It's not any successful communication with the people I'm talking to specifically, I don't think.
I changed my own perspective long ago, I no longer engage with people like Diva to convince them but to convince and show the "silent lurkers" what Tankies and right-wingers really think around here. And in doing so, it goes a long way to fostering a more positive rep for the Lemmy-verse on the outside
To truly make progress though, we need bigger and louder calls for defederation of toxic instances like .ml and the rest of the triad amongst the bigger instances. Which is also helped by debating to the "silent lurkers"
That is HILARIOUS lmao I wasn't even in this thread until now so ig im living rent free ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
She has def called me a Nazi though so I didn't doubt it for a second lol
Thanks for your concern, but I won't be stopping until .ml starts getting defederated from so we can move past their toxicity
:( I just want alien overlords already got damnit
I've tried searching through my inbox looking for interactions between us but wasn't able to find anything, but my inbox is rather...extensive and there's no inbox searching tools AFAIK lol
Considering diva just straight up lied (see below), id like to review this disagreement we had myself
