I'm a Linux sysadmin, a Python developer, a comedian, and a FOSS proponent. A clown with a technical background. But above all else, I'm an Ekko one-trick. He means the whole world to me.

I'm not ignoring you; Your instance admins probably won't let you talk to me, even if you want to. This is because I don't believe anybody is above criticism. If I don't reply within a day, hit me up on email or from another instance.

I shitpost, and I protect Ekko. This is my purpose.

I would pay so much money to shadow/audit an American high school classroom for one day, just to see how these fucking idiots function.

Like what are they teaching them? Are they even trying to teach them anything at all? Or do they just watch dancey videos for 6 hours and go home?

That's kinda why I don't mind there being some onboarding friction with Mastodon/Fediverse... If you can't immediately wrap your head around the idea of @user, you have a home domain and thay different domains can talk...

Maybe learn how to use a fucking computer before you come here.

Technical gatekeeping is best, you can't just market and/or shame it away. Either people understand the basic concepts, or they can't use it and they fuck off back to plebbit or tiktok.

Even though I vehemently disagree with most of the politics on this side of fedi, you guys are generally high IQ, and I feel right at home with y'all

The flip side of this is the shock when I go to the normie Internet and everybody is fucking stupid because there's the opposite of a barrier to entry: a financial incentive to make the service as idiot-proof as possible

My working hypothesis is that the vast majority of zoomers use email one-way... It's a place to receive confirmation emails, password resets, and marketing materials.

They've likely never sent an email outside of like a school domain where the software will assume that a bare user means @thatdomain

They put the emotional disorder, learning disability, and behavioral disorder kids in the same classes in the same containment school.

So every single year of social studies was Civil War and World War 2. Every year of math in high school was pre-algebra. Every year of English was "read this YA novel about rape"

If I wanted to actually learn something, I had to do it at home.

My understanding is that the real high school was not like this, and my city's high school was/is considered one of the best in the state.

Redditor pass the breakfast question challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)

(Triple-checked with three people and two LLMs, this person did indeed fail to engage the hypothetical I put forth.)

Okay so I'm not the "deranged" one here, and he did actually fail to engage the hypothetical?

@r000t@ligma.pro avatar

"How can an LLM possibly be even a passable substitute for a therapist?"

Because a lot of people, most of the time, just need someone to say "wow that fucking sucks, those people are complete assholes, fuck 'em, you wanna talk about it?"

Hi, I'm looking for anybody who has League or Valorant installed on a Windows computer.

I just need you to try running chkdsk \b and rebooting, and let me know what happens. Supposedly, chkdsk will abort or refuse to run at all. I do not believe there is any risk of data loss.

Thank you.

@istvan I thought that until I looked into what the process actually is (I wanted my LLC to get one for zonk)

it's a pain in the fucking ass, it takes 6 months minimum from the time you have someone in mind, and only a very very very small amount of companies actually get them because there is a quota and lottery system

r000t,
@r000t@ligma.pro avatar

@istvan it's either

  • PPP fraud
  • Internal hire already picked out
  • Someone's nephew already picked out
  • HR has a template for what number of years are required and apply it to all skills
  • An excuse to offer under the advertised pay range (Some states require a pay range now)
