cm0002@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do you think of imitation and lab-grown meats?2·12 days agoYea lol
cm0002@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's a popular game series that you just can't understand the hype for?8·13 days agoIndirectly pokemon go for me lol, played it a bit but meh
cm0002@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do you hope to achieve in the next 5 years?191·1 month agoThat was incredibly inappropriate to say, who is your lemming manager? We will be discussing your behavior and next steps
cm0002@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do you hope to achieve in the next 5 years?21·1 month agoLol I’ve always wanted to get a pilots license to replace my commercial air travel, but damn is it expensive and even more expensive to fly anywhere and maintain the plane lmao
cm0002@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What community would you like to see more active on Lemmy?21·1 month ago!nyc@lemmy.world is probably the best bet
voxpop.social has shutdown
cm0002@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What community would you like to see more active on Lemmy?61·1 month ago!india@Piefed.social is still moderated And not on .ml, but smallish because it just moved over there (needed to move over from !india@lemm.ee because of .ee shutdown)
cm0002@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is something you never understood the hype for?2·2 months agoI’m the same person who also has 600 (Not an exaggeration)
ChromeFirefox tabs open at a time LMAOIt’s a lot easier to just have whatever windows open on a monitor than constantly switching between windows. Sure there’s 1 or 2 that just has Spotify open or whatever, but there’s also ones with ya know documentation open or a browser or an IDE or RDP sessions there’s also a dedicated crib monitor one as well
cm0002@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is something you never understood the hype for?9·2 months agoYea it’s decent, but what really takes the cake is that it’s far better than what you can get at McDonald’s and (at least in my area) it’s cheaper than McDs
Their double double combo is like 10$ compared to McDs pitiful BigMac combo at like 13
It’s not worth flying across the country for like some do, but if I have a choice between McDs or In-N-Out…
cm0002@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is something you never understood the hype for?261·2 months agoThe idea is to be a cog in which you can get lost and do minimal work while collecting a fat paycheck
cm0002@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is something you never understood the hype for?35·2 months agoThis was not a response I expected, I thought the only people who didn’t like multiple monitors were ones who never tried it lol
My peak was like 8 monitors, I’m at 6 now, but I can never go back to a single one long term. Whenever I do it temporarily for whatever reason it’s agonizing
cm0002@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is something you never understood the hype for?231·2 months agoSame LMAO they’re neat but I’ve always been so meh about them. And there’s not even like new ones, it’s always the same versions over and over again
cm0002@lemmy.worldOPto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Ah yes... NULL has been shipped41·2 months agoWut? I can’t (and will not ever even if I could) post to .ml, this was crossposted from .ml
Why am I cross-posting .ml content?
I cross-post from .ml to the nearest relevant non-.ml comm to reduce the influence of .ml comms and indirectly, the instance as a whole, to make it an easier decision for other instance admins to defederate because one key reason I identified that admins don’t want to defederate is because .ml still has some very large comms and some niche comms.
Some highlights from the link:
"Don’t worry guys, the Uyghur Genocide was REALLY just birth control! ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/30580167
“See! nobody died IN Tiananmen Square, just AROUND it, so it doesn’t count!!” ~ Davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/30673342
.ml admin, Nutomics continued transphobia https://lemmy.world/post/29222558 The original transphobic Comment from Nutomic: https://lemmy.world/post/18236068
“NK is actually good and anything counter to that is Western propaganda!” ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/31595035
General negative sentiment to other instances who haven’t “seen the way” yet ~davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/27426510
“If you don’t support Russia then you just don’t understand geopolitics” ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/27352415
And so so much documentation on clear heavy handed censorship and bias also on the link. So much I can’t even put them all here because this comment would be really long.
I believe the behavior of its admins (the main admins are Lemmy devs) does harm to the overall growth of the Lemmy-verse and maybe even the Thrediverse (since Lemmy kinda kicked off the Thrediverse) because of its association with the devs of Lemmy and their insistence to use .ml as their personal political platform to spread harmful propaganda
On the outside, bringing up Lemmy frequently leads to comments like “Lemmy? Isn’t that the place with a bunch of tankies?” Or “Tried Lemmy, but found it full of pro Russia crap so I left”. The best way forward from that I see is to either widely defederate from .ml like the rest of the Triad, or pressure them to put a fair and unbiased as possible admin team.
I just view it as a pointless 50 year old squabble, it’s current name is SQL to me so S-Q-L it is, ig I didn’t have “old timers” to corrupt me during the formative years of my career though so maybe that’s why.
Regardless, my real beef in this is if someone makes hiring/firing/promotion decisions based on that. Like a fun office debate about it, cool, it’s whatever. Choosing not to hire or promote someone over something so petty is asinine IMO
It isn’t pronounceable as a word, it is an initialism because the letters that compromise it do not allow it to be pronounced as a word. Unlike something like NASA which is a full blown acronym because it can be pronounced
Do you say hetips for HTTPS?
The sequel thing didn’t even start naturally, it picked up this sequel moniker because of some ancient trademark beef in the 70s between the original devs when it was named “Sequel” and some company (That isn’t even in business anymore)
They renamed it SQL and out of protest against the company people continued to call it sequel even though it makes no sense and 50 damn years later here we are. Everybody involved with direct involvement is probably dead or longggg since retired. It wasn’t termed because it was easier to say and it sure as hell wasn’t termed because its proper.
If it was originally called SQL and the above never happened, I guarantee it would just be another DNS or HTTP and many many pointless debates about it would have never happened
Disclaimer, this doesn’t apply to the MS product that is called sequel
forget PostgreSQL’s existence until data corruption.
Oh, so about 2 hours then LMAO
Yup, and it’s S-Q-L not sequel (🤢)
That’s actually a really neat window lol, I kinda want one now xD
But are you sure it doesn’t open? Maybe you need to hold a crystal to it at the right time of day so that sunlight gets focused by it and opens a secret portal to another better timeline!
cm0002@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Movie/Film Ideas you swear they could make you a million bucks richer6·2 months agoMe and some friends wrote an outline for a zombie movie years ago from the viewpoint of the zombies. They see themselves as cultured and “normal” while the living are viewed as savages who waste their lives working, keeping up with the Jones’ and addicted to stupid stuff like reality TV. It would have been done in the style of The Office/What We Do In the Shadows, with a film crew following around a small group of Zombies who explain their lives. The zombies would have a very close-knit socialist/utopia type lifestyle while us stupid living lived in a right-wing 'murica hellscape.
If I was rich, I would be signing over a 500M budget over to you right now
Sadly, I’m just a Lemming :'(
cm0002@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you have a "catchphrase"? if so, what is it?3·2 months agoYou know what else is X? MY MOM WOOOYEAAAA
Yea I can see that. I personally detest tofu, except when in a dish that’s built around it rather than trying to imitate something else. Like in miso soup it’s delicious!
