Bilb!

My company did that too, then they replaced us with cheaper labor from overseas.

I’m curious, do you recall what hardware issue you had? I’ve been using Fedora-based Aurora on my 13 and 16.

If it makes you feel any better, this happens in the UK, too.

That did make me feel better, thanks! 😃

I’m betting hard that microplastics are actually good for us

Plenty of easy solutions. I’m not here to tell anyone their preferences are invalid but I personally don’t consider the lack of a headphone jack to be a deal breaker when there are easy solutions.

You probably could, but you’d have the taste of citric acid (which is not awful) and baking soda in the water. The Spärkel has the water that activates the reaction in a separate chamber so they don’t wind up in your drink. You need to change that water every four or five times you use it.

I use a “Spärkel” carbonator. Instead of CO2 canisters, it uses packets of citric acid and baking soda to generate CO2 and uses a compressor to infuse the liquid.

Pros:

• You can either use their pre-measured packets if that’s convenient for you, or do what I do and just buy a bulk amount of both the citric acid and baking soda.
• You can carbonate pretty much any liquid. Water, wine, flat soda, mixed drinks, you name it. The sodastream will explode and cause a huge mess if you try to carbonate anything besides water.
• They don’t appear to be Israeli.

Cons:

• Because it uses a compressor, it needs to be plugged in to operate. It’s pretty loud too!
• It takes longer than a sodastream. While a sodastream is almost instant, this will take 1-3 minutes depending on the level of carbonation you desire.

I definitely wouldn’t stop working, but I would have more flexibility to try things like taking a risk on something entrepreneurial or choosing to work in a field that aligns with my values, salary be damned. That cannot be allowed.

Any measure that reduces the leverage employers have over labor will not be simply given to us. People fought and died to get what little control we have, and it’s been whittled away for decades.

I take downvotes as an admission of guilt to my observations, thanks.

That’s not a very reliable way to determine that. Might as well admit something like “I take the shape of the tea leaves to mean that I am correct.”

Agreed. It’s touch optimized, not mouse and keyboard. That’s not a criticism!

I love Voyager on mobile but feel constrained by it on desktop. (It reminds me of using Gnome, which is not my personal preference.)

Ah, this is so cool. I have been absolutely loving Aurora. Maybe I can make a check point and rebase to this to try it out.

Is there good humor somewhere on Lemmy?

Just like on Reddit, that depends on the moderators of the sub/com. It really couldn’t work any other way. .world seems to often err on the side of being inoffensive for the sake of broader appeal. (And probably also not getting in hot water with their hosting partners, acquaintances, etc.)

It’s hard to imagine Trump riding a bike.

Ken has really been making hay of this. Must love being independent!
