Thank goodness John Henry has taught us Americans that machines will never beat humans, so we obviously know how this will end. /s

If you habitually use it on simple or clear turns or empty roads you will habitually use it when there are people around. That’s a good habit to have.

Lights on always and signal whenever you’re deviating from your current lane.

I work on process automation software that includes a very large multidirectional scrollable canvas with the map of nodes. My experience mirrors yours, though I switched to a magic trackpad a few years back for the bigger gesture area.

I still wouldn’t recommend the magic mouse to anyone though.

DEI during hiring is things like:

• Making sure job postings are put up in spaces where minority populations have a similar chance to see them as majority populations. I.e. post at HBCU and Women’s colleges’ job boards, not just at the hiring manager’s alma mater.
• Making sure the application portal is accessible to those with disabilities

DEI during employment is things like:

• continuing unconscious bias training
• educating about the existence of diverse backgrounds and how that can benefit your team
• encouraging communication among your team members about how they approach problems, overcome obstacles, and achieve results

DEI is not (though the right commonly likes to use it this way):

• A slur for non-white male presenting people
• A diversity hire
• A socially acceptable term in lieu of the n-word

Working as intended

Security concerns and a wash of crap people think will be the next big thing.

Nazi salutes and internment camps sure are a good place to start!

Then there’s selling shirts with swastikas on them and talking about poisoning the blood of our people.

Beyond that there are a lot of scary similarities like book bans, transphobia, and attempts to overthrow the government.

Oh and of course, rubbing shoulders with Nazis and not bothering to criticise them!

Fuck ICE

This isn’t one of those instances where freedom of speech is allowed.

I love how you just reiterated your erroneous point verbatim without clarification.

Be respectful of others.

Not sure what that has to do with this discussion or my comment.

Gonna ignore you now since you don’t have an answer to my question.

1. I have answered your question in a top level comment; your not liking the answer doesn’t mean I haven’t answered.
2. That’s your right as much as it’s my right to answer your question as I see fit or to point out the dichotomy of your actions and words.

It seems you don’t actually know what freedom of speech is.

Freedom of speech means the government can’t get you in trouble for what you say.

Freedom of speech does not mean what you have to say is valuable, relevant, or required to be protected, platformed, or promoted by private capital or individuals. Lemmy instances by and large are not products of governments used to curtail your right to say what you want–they’re private entities who’s own freedom of speech and association allow them to make a determination about whether you’re an acceptable entity to keep around.

If you think you’re an acceptable entity to keep around when no one else does, feel free to start your own instance.

Sure it is.

And even if it weren’t that doesn’t make your comment about you getting butt hurt from someone telling you to be better for seeking out where you can be a bigot any less ironic.

Perhaps you should rephrase your post then to indicate you’re actually interested in bigotry affirming instances instead of instances that refrain from being a government entity that controls expression.

They are different.

Pretty much any Lemmy instances I suspect supports freedom of speech. There’s not really any evidence that admins are colluding with the feds to control what you say.

What may be happening is admins deciding of their own volition to not platform certain types of comments. Notably that doesn’t stop you or anyone else from saying whatever; it just means you gotta do it somewhere else, like your own instance.

This is the most ironic comment ever.

I’m pretty sure they were just pointing out that bottled water is also way more expensive than its component parts–they were not proposing that they were the same thing.

Yeah, didn’t Snowden already leak that they were monitoring everyone?

Phone’s a real camera. The best camera is the one you’ve got and use. Take shots, enjoy the process, and have fun.

I virtue signaled over a decade ago.

I honestly don’t understand how people socialise and make friends though gaming

yet I’ve never interacted with anyone, I don’t have a headset and I don’t wanna hear voice or chat while playing though

To be blunt, you need to interact and talk with people to form a lasting relationship. If you aren’t socialising while gaming then, well, you aren’t socialising while gaming.

That’s fine, a perfectly valid way to play, but if you really envy them and you want to start socialising and making friends while gaming you’re gonna have to get a headset and talk with people.

As ferret mentioned it was in the past, but they were prominent:

I’m sure there are as many reasons as there are people who dislike Ubuntu, but here’s a few:

• They injected internet ads into search
• To many outside of the community if they have any familiarity with Linux on a desktop, it’s with Ubuntu which kinda places it in a position to newcomers as being Linux itself rather than one particular flavor
• It is very opinionated about look and feel and usability: i.e. their custom launcher and Snaps
• It’s popular
• It has a reasonably large user base so there’s more opportunity for people to find things to nitpick over.

Overall it’s fine. I’ve used Ubuntu, Mint, Puppy, DSL, Arch (btw), Fedora, and Debian. I can do pretty much anything I need to on any of them. I’ve got my preferences about the correct balance between useability, upgrade schedule, and customizability.
