Which instances federate with threads? Is there a list?

ELI5: why is BRICS suddenly a thing and what is it?

I’ve always known BRIC to mean four countries, which may or may not have similar interests. Ok, add South Africa, that makes it 5 countries.

Until recently, I did not think of BRICS as a bloc or an organisation. What are they? What does it mean if a country seeks to join?

Don’t think that’s ever been a problem anywhere close to Paris climate. It’s not that humid and it’s not that hot. The difference between inside and outside climate is not that extreme.

And if humidity is a problem, you are dealing with mold, not actual wet floors. That is if the buildings are not well engineered and it would show in the long run, not during the gamee.

Interesting. The creation has a Wikipedia page.

Donair? What’s that? Fancy Doner Kebab made with Don Perignon and air?

I wrote it in German and I’ll repeat it here. The headlines are misleading.

The youth did not turn to the (extreme) right.

There was a shift to the (moderate and extreme) right bloc across all ages. This is within the typical range for Germany. (Throughout history, the left did not win many elections.)

And there was a shift inside the right bloc to the extreme. This is somewhat unusual, but again, it happened throughout all ages. It’s not young people.

In fact, the youngest voter group gave fewer votes to the right than any other group. (However, they also did not vote for greens as much as five years ago.)

The Nazi parties only win if we let them steal the media narrative.

Finally, a question where i can shine. You don’t have to do anything specific. Just do things.

Use a headset with your phone or laptop: You are on a call. Most people don’t speak much at online meetings.

Take a little nap? Thinking.

Want some time alone? Go to a meeting room. Works even better if the room has glass walls since you can see them and they can see that you are “busy”, but no one sees your screen.

Have multiple monitors. There’s always something work-related on at least one screen.

Have fields of interest that blend in. If one of your hobbies is vaguely related to work you are golden. You can totally read something unrelated to work during working time if it seems most your attention goes towards work. (See multiple screens and some switching back and force.)

Shift your working hours slightly from the norm, i.e. come 5 min earlier than others.

Don’t hide windows with non-work stuff when someone sees them. Too late. Act as if you have nothing to hide.

Do a reasonable work-life blend. Work overtime occasionally at odd hours and make managers know that you solved an emergency in your free time. Gives you an excuse to leave early or slack off the next day and any other day.

React to emails with a resonable delay. Of course, you can help, but not right now. You are busy.

Block your calendar and decline invites.

So what is needed to a reply?

If I follow the replies’ author, I will get it. Right?

If someone in my instance follows the author, will I also see it?

If someone boosts the reply?

While in the EU or California, what ever works better…

Can you clarify this? As a normal user with one of the standard clients, who is on one random instance and follows people on other instances, we are missing Likes and Boost? I can live this, it’s just a number. But, are we also missing replies? I don’t expect OP to retoot all replies, but I do want to read them? At least i want the option the read them.

I can’t tell if senior management actually believes that this sort of corporate cringe is inspiring, or if they do it purposely to crush your soul and make you into a servile automaton.

Why not both?

Memory leaks?

Possible, but much more likely is disk full. Not a bug, just something that happens…

This was expected. When solar panels were expensive, you had to optimize for output. When you get the same rate for any kWh, you optimize for output. Now that PV is cheap as fuck, of course, there’s going to overproduction.

Now the dynamic will change. Instead of facing south, it becomes attractive to orient east/west. This generates more output on mornings or evenings. As a next step, you add batteries to the mix. Yes, they said they were expensive, need rare materials, and yadda yadda; except with lower prices every month, solar batteries are thing now.

Also “overproduction” is relative. Most of our heating and transport is fossil. There’s a long way to go.

vi, gcc, and LaTeX

Let them learn the hard way.

Right on the money: See also the official mullvad docs: https://mullvad.net/en/help/dns-over-https-and-dns-over-tls#linux

While they are at it, can we get Prism for Linux?

So we replace two players with one (ARM)?

So oder so, ich freu mich auf ein funktionierendes Feddit oder DACH-Lemmy!

Allons enfants de la Patrie, Le jour de gloire est arrivé!
