Needs more jpeg

I’m sure people thought the same way when computers started to make some jobs useless. Yet, has capitalism been fixed since then?

Complex research and data gathering

Simple information is more and more difficult to find on the internet because of all the websites being filled with LLM garbage, so we’ll soon need something very powerful to help us for that.

AI “fixing” the problem it created in the first place, that’s a genius move

I think this question has been raised a few times here and I’m not aware of any “guide for dummies”.

Self-hosting is a wide topic and most of the knowledge is spread across the internet. I’d recommend going to communities like the one you just posted on, reading wikis and learning how to efficiently find information on the web. Most of the knowledge I accumulated over the years come from so many different places so I can’t think of a centralized knowledge base.

If you really want to have a handbook you can refer to you’ll have to write it yourself with your experience about your specific setup and environment.

I have a windows 10 gaming rig hooked to my TV, which I only power up for gaming. I figured out it was a good compromise to install windows on this one instead of dealing with Nvidia issues and other tweaks on linux, even though I dual-booted bazzite and boot it every now and then to see if I can play my games on it and motivate myself into switching.

Just made the transition, couldn’t be easier. Export, import, profit

Love letter really is the best, I bring it everywhere I go

I’d say as many as in other countries

La main droite, c’est celle qui a le pouce à gauche

Not for screwing/unscrewing but in France we have a satire mnemonic for remembering right and left:

The right hand is the one with the thumb pointing left.

Works only if you look at the back of your hands, and obviously not useful. We use it mainly to mock someone who mix right and left

Good read, I think the practical example of enshittification makes it easier to understand.

As I understand the screenshots, it looks like it is simulating a windows XP desktop but not opening actual windows or messing with the system

They are cut in little cubes, along with bacon, duck breast and a fried egg. It is indeed unique and delicious

On of my local pizzerias has one with apple and it’s actually one of my favorite!

But my number one is the “indian”, which is basically chicken, curry, pineapple and raisin

Let’s go. In and out. Eight day adventure.

Not everybody, usually RTTs depend on how much overtime is planned in your contract (eg. most engineers work 37.5h instead of 35h, so they get 1 RTT each 3 weeks). Many people don’t have any RTT

Nice, good luck with your fight, remote work is the future

Nope, France is 5 minimum, each company can add as much as they want but the law is 5 minimum.

I agree on all the good work of previous generations to earn us these though.

What’s the name of your employer again?

Seriously, those are really good conditions, I’m glad you are aware of that.

Is that really a thing? I’ve seen it in a few job offers but I have trouble understanding how it works…

As I understand it you can take as many days as you want and it works on the company’s trust, but that system sounds really toxic to me, isn’t it?

Edit: I’m European with almost 7 weeks off a year for context
