This flag has been used all over Asia by youth to express unity in dissatisfaction with corruption and a system that is stacked against them. I think it started in Indonesia, but I am not sure.

What others have mentioned here, plus seagrass and kelp. There is a lot of recovery to do of these once massive ecosystems, thus a lot of carbon to tie up.

LPT: bad spoons are kept next to the stove for tasting or dosing ingredients. We use a steel cup for easy access because you always need one in a hurry.

SOME particular kinds of people. Some are constitutionally opposed to unequal distribution.

I have always liked the balanced approach that slashdot has.

Users are asked by automation to moderate once they demonstrate reasonable engagement statistically. Then they are assigned a number of comments or posts to rate, not just updown votes but assign qualities, such as funny or insightful. This makes reading long threads more friendly.

Also, more reliable moderators are invited to evaluate other moderations! Accountability!

I am not sure why the model wasn’t popular elsewhere.

I argue the tag is more obscure to a noob than an emoji.

Also, it says “for god”, since it is a translation. In the ideological state of things it is kinda inviting prejudice to translate half the phrase.

An upside-down smiley face means nothing to you?

CS grads are in the worst position ever. University is often mistaken for vocational education, however that would be a technical college.

I have spent a lot of time crossing between a practical education environment, aimed at production skills, and university, aimed at thinking ability and abstract skills.

Honestly, my experience is that students are much more capable in a production environment after a two week boot camp than after three years of university on a roughly parallel topic. However, the non-idiots in the academic case will be able to understand arguments about the context of what they are doing better.

The point is that a philosophy degree might be more employable than a CS degree in some situations. The dude who cofounded Flickr and Slack was working off of an english degree. Use your degree for understanding and some projects for knowledge.

I also have a humanities degree and work in IT, with a wide range of applied skills I learned from necessity instead of a prof.

So create the necessity for skills by making useful shit, or even just fixing things. Find friends and make a silly app. Volunteer at a nonprofit and improve their CRM database. Build a homelab that you share with roommates. Find the local permacomputing group and help them turn all those shitty win10 obsolete machines into sleek linux machines. Ignore money and employment as task criteria for a few years, or freelance IT gigs.

Solve real world problems for real experience.

Or, like, you know, they got bumped and it’s get a hotel or fly another airline.

Yeah posting a video without an accompanying summary or introduction is off putting.

One shitpost meme video in your downloads folder = hundreds of Word docx files. Pick the low hanging fruit.

Nice. There are some servers with only the premium maps but if they are cheap it’s worth it, including Firestorm, which they are bringing back for BF6. Peak Battlefield.

BF4 still very playable!

…because of private servers.

still waiting for design fashion to circle back to gopher and tabular data… taps fingers and sighs in genX

That is a possibility with nearly any classified listing and always has been.

Situational awareness and good street sense are necessary. Bring a friend or be as public as you can, etc.

Most online scams, including phishing and tech support scams, are variations on ancient techniques.

You go! Also check for more niche classified sites, like specific to universities etc.

Yes, friends don’t let friends use Meta products.

Why did people stop using craigslist to advertise rentals?

It is just the old bulletin board / classified newspaper niche, usually there’s more than one venue in urban areas. In a lot of Canada people also use kijiji etc. I am not including fb marketplace in that, though if you can access Meta websites, too many people still use that.

Neither am I?

You and I might have different definitions of waste and efficiency.
