Google not required to refund victims of gift card scams, judge rules
  • Yeah, I worked at Walmart for a bit and we were taught to look out for weird situations with gift cards and politely ask what the customer's plan was. If we thought they were getting scammed, we'd get our manager involved to talk to them

  • What is your horrible Food Poisoning story?
  • Woke up with my stomach in knots, figured I ate something bad the previous day. Texted my work group chat and let them know that I would be useless if I showed up, and explained that I think I ate something bad for dinner. They said something along the lines of "no worries, but you're still gonna have to come in to at least grab the paperwork for staying home for a day." Annoyed, I got a ride to work and went to go do the formalities and explained that my boss had already given me the go ahead to stay home, I just needed the paperwork. First guy I talked to had no issue just writing it up and sending me on my way, but when he stepped away for a second I got asked some questions by one of his coworkers who told me "we have to give you a check up first to determine if you actually have to stay home." She checked my stomach for pain and listened to it make some noises, then decided I was just constipated and gave me something to drink to help. First guy still wrote the paperwork up for me, and I got to go home, stomach in even worse situation and I spent nearly 2 hours on the toilet before I felt safe enough to go lay down and slept the rest of the day away.

    (And yes I'm well aware that it's atypical to get a checkup by your workplace, this was a weird and terrible place to work. Glad I got outta there.)

  • How to pair mini PC with streaming services to stream on dumb TV?
  • Assuming you're using a modern TV, it functions just like a monitor for a computer. A mini PC is the same as a desktop/laptop, just in a little box. So basically you just plug the mini PC in with an HDMI to the TV, install the apps you need on the mini PC and you're good to go

  • Phoenix project offers free clothing to transgender, nonbinary people
  • Are transgender/nonbinary poorer than average

    At least in America, the answer to this is still largely yes. People still get kicked out of their homes or denied opportunities due to their gender identity all the time

  • If we're gonna armchair-diagnose people based on their OS, we should do it for all of them
  • As the meme points out, Linux attracts the autistic crowd, and there have been some studies done that have found a correlation between autism and being transgender. Namely that people who are autistic tend to care less about gendered norms, and therefore are more likely to explore their own gender

  • Android makes me (almost) hate using a password manager – Google needs to fix it
  • It works really well.

    Like 90% of the time, yeah. There are some websites/apps where it will fuck up and I have to go open the pass app and tap the credentials I need. Still the best option in my opinion, and it only takes a second to go grab the credentials out of the app

  • Decisions Decisions
  • I like to pick based off the name of the command I use to evoke the package manager. Currently, I'm enjoying using yay but I've been thinking about emerge quite a bit

    Edited for pedantic specificity

  • Men of Lemmy: What's you take on to marry an OF woman content creator? I'm not talking about hanging out or just sex. please only men answers.
  • Honestly, it seems like you probably shouldn't be wasting your time with this woman.

    Man you were giving great advice until you suddenly decided that people in the porn industry are incapable of love and only use sex as a weapon. Sex workers are human beings.
