Yeah, exactly the same thing at play in the movie industry as well.
Thanks for the post, super appreciate the posting of other communties. I think this is a great way to grow Lemmy and create discoverability for niche communities, I’ll keep that in mind myself on future opportunities.
Windows has the free zones powertoy which does the same. So its an option but not in the OS by default.
Exactly the same here too. As a teenager we also all pitched in on a CD burner when they first came out and kept it at the BBS’s owners place, I just remember a single CD took forever back then when it was 1x and 2x recording speed. That allowed us to share a ton more without everyone having to get together on the LAN.
Ah thats right they just sold the game not the studio
Yeah I was an early adopter myself, it was my gateway drug into rimworld and dwarf fortress. I stopped playing shortly after they sold the studio
I got my first job with AIX in the early 2000’s after the previous admin did a reinstall of the OS vs an upgrade on prod, with unverified backups. It was a resume generating event.
They lost over 3 months of data and barely survived it.
I actually have a death date. It helps a lot with being able to plan my life and live in a way where I’ll be happy with my life if I were to die tommorow.
If I reach that date then great, anything after I just consider a bonus lol
Especially if its a system that you have told management needs to be replaced but they aren’t interested in spending the money…
I had the same problem too, I ended up buying a USB Bluetooth transmitter. I figured the board was bad until I replaced it and had the same problem with the new one
Thats really interesting. I wonder how much the culture and expectations of norms in corporations makes a difference with this.
Have you worked in several all female crews as well? Its hard to judge when you don’t have a baseline to consider.
This is spot on from my experience as well, you can even see this dynamic play out within individual departments in the same company.
I hear you on the cold part. So many tripped breakers from space heaters… and that one time, a very angry UPS that got plugged into.
Not only that, but it’s no longer your problem when its in the cloud. You can blame the cloud for everything!
The sooner it all goes to shit, the sooner we can move on.
You misspelled Russian asset
That’s why there is a huge push now to remedy it. The supply chain shutdown due to covid was the first shot across the bow and now China is massively ramping up its navy to take it. They want to be ready to invade Taiwan by 2027.
