  • What's a philosophical (not overtly political) position that you hold?

    Jump

  • I hate the state of our world as it is right now. It's been itching inside my head for quite some time alreadu. It probably is somewhat political, because it probably has something to do with capitalism, but I can't understand how a population that has never been so productive still has to work their ass off in order to simply eat and lay in a bed safely. The more I think about it, the less sense it makes and the more I hate how natural it is for seemingly everyone around me.

    I'm not one of these people, despite also not being wealthy at all, I have a job, I don't get paid top dollar but I have a safe house, food on the table and I can do a little bit more with my money, and yes, that's it, EVERYTHING seems to revolve around money.

  • What is the most underrated thing that you think other people need to know about?

    Jump

  • Never did a bidet, but I avoid paper to ass like a plague.

    I mean, if I'm not home, I do it and whatever.

    But I normally just go to shower and that's it. Just clean it while showering.

    When you are on a diarrhea and shitting multiple times a day, your ass starts getting irritated after so much paper. By simply cleaning it in the shower, you have no more irritation.

  • What was the most illegal thing your workplace has done?

    Jump

  • An everyday job in any 3rd world country

  • What surprised you most about your job?

    Jump

  • How toxic corporate environment is.

    I had only worked for small businesses before. Obviously they had a lot of problems and I don't miss a single thing. But now I'm in a huge IT company that outsourced part of its operation to the another huge IT company I'm actually in.

    Both suck, but still I gotta learn to "play the game".

  • What are some useful or just cool stuff to memorize?

    Jump

  • Subnets

  • What is a technology/gadget you refuse to use and why?

    Jump

  • Home smart devices in general. I'm avoiding Alexa, Siri or any other thing like that. Besides the obvious privacy issues I see about them, I can only imagine being alone at home, Alexa thinking something talked to her and responding in a distorted voice. No, thanks.

    I'm considering a home assistant at some point, by setting up a proper network for the smart devices alone, but that's as far as I'll go.

  • JoeyForReddit has died

    Jump

  • Yep, went to see Beau is Afraid discussion on Reddit through Google and the thread wasn't opening. Was wondering if something was wrong with /r/movies. Turns out it was Joey.

    RIP. Greatest Reddit app.

  • What's something you'd change in men's fashion, given the chance?

    Jump

  • I translated it through Google, lol. I'm not in a English speaking country, so that's the translation I found and the images seemed to match hahaha

  • What's something you'd change in men's fashion, given the chance?

    Jump

  • Money belts are coming back, but not the old style. We're wearing it across the chest, like a bag. They're even making money belts with more of an adjustable belt so that you can use however you want/feel better. Basically, becomes a bag.

    I really wish it would be more mainstream. I always wore shorts with more pockets because fuck I didn't like holding shit in my hand. Recently, shorts with pockets haven't really been a thing, so I gave the money belt a chance and I really like its utility. Nothing inside my short pockets anymore.

  • What's the worst job in the world?

    Jump

  • A coworker once said he was a content reviewer for YouTube for some time. He received in dollar in a 3rd world country and said it was a pretty easy job to do, aside from being full WFH. Certainly not the worst job out there.

  • What's a quote that has stuck with you for your whole life?

    Jump

  • "Better say sorry than ask for permission"

    "You never get a second chance to make a first impression"

  • Removed

    What password manager do you recommend?

    Jump

  • Bitwarden, no question

  • What's the worst thing to do on a first date?

    Jump

  • Why, tho?

    It is obviously weird in the first date, but I think it should be brought up pretty early in a relationship.

    If they don't have the same goals or view these things remotely the same way, why invest time in a relationship? Just to have it become a problem ahead?

  • What is something you think leftists are not ready to hear but need to hear it?

    Jump

  • Repeat above for the use of "nazi". The use of the word has become devalued because people like to fling it at folks with milquetoast centrist opinions, save it for people who are legitimately evil.

    Yup, I said the same thing to people around me, when the use of the word "fascist" became a thing in my country. Even clearly moderate opponents were being called fascists left and right. I told people around me that the word would lose its meaning and power. That's exactly what happened, and when an actual fascist came up, you had nothing against him and its supporters transformed the term into a joke.

  • Liftoff. Lemmy app. Do you like the way it works now?

    Jump

  • The first one already happens, no? Before the last few updates, if you opened a link to a community that "via" another instance, you were kinda screwed. You could see it as a "guest", but not interact to it. In the recent updates, if you try to interact with it, it will open a popup to ask if you wanna open it in one of the instances you have an account.

    Dunno if I misunderstood your point, tho.

    The second one is kinda hard, because images already put a lot of pressure on instances storage-wise. Videos would be even more, and not only much more storage needed, but also throughput. I don't really see it happening any time soon, not really because of the apps, but because of the platform itself and its federated nature.

  • How often do you brush your teeth?

    Jump

  • 2-3 times a day, depends

    If I'm at work, I also brush after lunch

    If I'm home, I just casually skip it because yeah fuck it

  • NSFW

    Can we talk about porn on Lemmy?

    Jump

  • Even all/hot or active or whatever, really.

    The main reason I stopped looking at all. Nothing against NSFW, but I want it when I'm expressly in the mood. I was finding myself masturbating more because of this shit.

  • what would you do if you have a time machine

    Jump

  • And find out it was, in fact, the aliens.

  • What's the hottest and coldest temperature you've ever been in?

    Jump

  • Hottest was easily over 50°C. I live in a hot and humid place, so it is even hotter than your typical 50°C. And it's hell. Really good if you're on the beach (assuming you manage to avoid insolation), but being home and having to work is the absolute worst I don't wish to anyone.

    Coldest was maybe 15-18°C? I was travelling to a not so cold neighboring state and it was quite good, actually. I prefer the weather like this.
