Im the sole IT guy at a non profit. I could probably have a movie playing, but if power shell is open I’m covered. It’s hilarious and glorious.

Your love for Ziggy is so apparent even through this virtual space. You have done so well by her just by loving her the way you do. Perfection is not required. You are a blessing for her. Hope things improve immediately for you both! Huge hugs!!!
I can be, but am not always. I actually find niceness to be a highly overvalued character trait. Some of the most back stabbing, manipulative, wishy washy, fake people I have ever known were incredibly nice. In fact, they used their niceness as a shield and mask for their awful character traits. Took a long time to realize that niceness is not so important. Far more important are loyalty, reliability, willingness to admit fault, willingness to listen, and so on. Niceness is just basic human civility. I don’t care how nice you are if you are a manipulative and fake.
I saw it articulated as “the greenest thing anyone can do is not have kids.” Pretty cynical, but also true. Unfortunately, there tends to be a lot of overlap between truth and cynicism.
It’s about as annoying as young people abandoning any and all punctuation entirely. The amount of people that will write an entire paragraph and not use a single period is obscene. If you can’t bother to organize your thoughts in the most minimal way, I’m going to assume you have nothing of worth to say and just won’t read it. And frankly, if what you’re saying is so boiler plate you don’t need punctuation, then you really don’t have anything to add, so probably just shouldn’t.
No
Had a busy weekend, my brother was in town with his family so spent the last 48 hours with them. Love them, but they are pretty exhausting lol. This week at work is looking to be pretty chill, so all in all, not bad. Hope everyone has a fantastic week ahead!
Cooking! I’ve tried to post in that community a couple times with a bit of success. I’m going to commit to posting more though. But you’re so right. I love people nerding out over the niche things they love. Thanks for the encouraging post!
Totally agreed!
I agree with this entirely, but I think the missing context is the mental health of our admins. Not to mention the sheer number of hours of unpaid labor they do, they are subjected to some heinous things. I don’t want them to sacrifice themselves for us. I will follow beehaw if they leave, I already have another lemmy account to see a wider scope of the fediverse, but beehaw is too special to abandon.
Had the same response. The headline itself reeks of spin.
Never. That is a position for the naive.
Yeah makes sense. Thanks for the insight, I guess I was just too annoyed to see the obvious lol
How on earth are people not totally repulsed by Altman? Capitalist to the core. Gross to see all his employees drank the kool aid too. I work in tech, but non-profit side, so I sometimes forget just how driven by money the tech sector is. Altman is a fucking bond villain at this point.
My thoughts exactly. Do downvotes offend you that much? Like, who cares? Just use whatever you want. This is the internet, it’s not that serious.
Explains a lot. We have all seen people treat their religion exactly like a drug addict treats the substance they abuse.
" "And that the participants may have self-reporting heightened spiritual feelings “out of a desire to appear more socially consistent with the aims of the study”. "
This part was super interesting to me. If that’s the case, they are getting the hit of dopamine from social rewards, which belonging to a religion and performing religion would also provide. Interesting stuff, thanks for sharing!
Interesting. My point still stands though. It’s crazy that a party would have a 22 year old on said list, and that anyone would support a party that has a list with 22 year olds on it.
Precisely this. Not to mention your premise about reproducing fails when placed in front of a large majority of the queer community. Childless gay man here, by choice. I am extremely pleased, some may even say fulfilled, with my choice to not reproduce.
