Amazon tech workers leaving for other jobs in response to return to office mandate
  • I thought the same. Interesting strategy cutting the people who are good enough to get another job.

  • California governor signs law banning all plastic shopping bags at grocery stores.
  • I used to forget my bags all the time until I got some actual nice bags made for groceries. They’re way bigger, sturdy enough to hold anything, and can stand freely as I load groceries in them. I don’t forget them now.

  • The soft cone of shame is acceptable.
  • He’s all good! Just had a hot spot on his neck and needs to cool it on the itching. Had a bath with his medicated shampoo and needs to be careful for a few days and he’ll be good.

    Remarkable, now $10,000.00!
  • Yeah may not be for everyone but these things are dope.

  • Nothing is requiring employees to be in the office five days a week
  • Also an introvert; switching to working remotely vastly improved my social life (and productivity at work). When I was going to the office, I was burning all my social energy during the day and defaulted to hermit mode on nights and weekends to recharge.

    Now I’m sitting on my social charger all day while I’m working and actually have the energy to hang out with my friends outside of work hours.

  • Dear iPhone users:
  • Maybe whatever app you’re using isn’t really deleting comments? It’s still showing up fine for me and gaining votes.

  • Dear iPhone users:
  • I switched to iOS a few years back because I tried it for a week when my Pixel died, maintained a pros/cons list, and decided iOS works better for me.

    The most eye-opening part switching “sides” is how cringe these types of Android users are. Just use what works for you and enjoy life.

  • Dear iPhone users:
  • Don’t worry, we won’t ask.

  • Forbidden cheese
  • It’s a reference to the unnecessary apostrophe. The quote was something like “an apostrophe is used to create possessive nouns, it doesn’t mean ‘here comes an s!’”

    What kind of messaging apps do you use?
  • I’ve tried to get my friends consolidated in one app in the past, but have given up. I prefer Discord, but use a combo of that and Slack, Signal, GroupMe, IG, FB Messenger, SMS, email, and probably some others I’m forgetting about. Discord is the only one I directly open, the others I’ll just rely on notifications.

  • He's just a lil guy
  • TIL! Amazing.

  • Lemmy - Wikipedia
  • Trick question. Lemmy is God.

  • All Necrophagist (Epitaph) Solos in One Take - Youtube
  • Man, I miss Necrophagist.

  • Perfection
  • Damn, I never considered that combination before. Being extroverted with social anxiety would be awful.

  • This feels like how we should be living
  • If checking my email somewhat regularly means people will call/IM me less, sign me up. I can’t get anything done with synchronous communication on the regular.

  • You know, it's a movie for kids
  • God, the giant mosquitoes were the worst.

  • Google pulls the plug on uBlock Origin, leaving over 30 million Chrome users susceptible to intrusive ads
  • Used Chrome forever, switched to Firefox back when this stuff first started going down. No ragerts.

  • She deserved better
  • His girlfriend’s what?

  • Neil Gaiman: Three Women Accuse Author of Sexual Assault
  • I just read a super interesting book about this–Monsters by Claire Dederer. It won’t really give you answers, but a thought-provoking discussion on this subject I also struggle with.

  • Germany: Alcohol-free beer sales double in past decade
  • Huh, I never would have thought of NA liquor. Is it as close as NA beer has gotten these days?
