Looking at your examples, and I have to object at putting scratch in there.

My kids use it in clubs, and it’s great for getting algorithmic basics down before the keyboard proficiency is there for real coding.

No, that last one’s zoophiliac, but probably works too.

Honestly? With the benefit of hindsight, I’m actually pleased it wasn’t given the chance to become a Dollhouse.

The movie gave closure, and we left the characters in a good place.

Dollhouse gave us 5 seasons of content in one, and ruined itself in season 2, and many other shows have just run until everyone was sick of them, before getting an anticlimactic ending anyway.

My bet is that in 2 years we’ll see a stark devide in talent in traditional Vs remote first companies with the latter getting pick of the litter so to speak.

Same in France.

This reminds me of am episode of Love Death and Robots

Malicious compliance, I like it.

Clearly enough are that this problem is pervasive accross several police forces. It’s clearly the case in the US, and we have a similar problem with the Police National in France (bizzarly, the Gendarmerie who performe policing outside the cities and are a part of the armed forces seem to have far less issues in this regard…)

Technically it’s their client that’s putting the thumb screws to them.

If that’s the case the logical solution is to put your commercial hat on and find another client. Amazon aren’t the only ones paying.

If Amazon was your only client that’ll be tough, but speaking from experience if you don’t diversify your client base, you’re living on borrowed time anyway.

This doesn’t mean Amazon are not being abusive, but the solution isn’t to moan on the internet.

Don’t worry, it’s business insider India, nothing to do with the reputable site.

And honestly I prefer the lemmy experience which has soo much less toxicity.

Parceque un porc ou un boeuf ça design aussi l’animal.

Nvidia 1060 for graphics, got it back in 2017 and haven’t seen the need to upgrade.

If I do change it, I’d be tempted to go AMD, but blender compatibility does have me worried.

Yes and no.

The simple fact that you’re not using IE6 on MSN with Bing search to access a Windows server is more or less proof that the constraints placed on Microsoft at that time did actually have an impact (even if I felt robbed that the company wasn’t split up at the time).

Today the one thing Microsoft is still dominante in is Office software (and even then Google docs is snapping at their heals).

OS? Android is more popular than windows Server OS? Linux rules the roost Browser? Chrome

The company that really needs scrutiny ATM is Google.

Personally, I’ve just switched to using https://www.understandingwar.org/ for my daily update and https://warontherocks.com/ for the deep dives.

The amount of useful information is similar, and the signal to noise ratio is far better.
