I am now addicted to BitBurner and I blame you

Care to share what you use to do surveys for Amazon money? How long have you been doing it?

It’s not that my boss cares per se, but I still think people form a subconscious image of your work ethic, and I think it’s always better to be seen as a “hard worker” when it comes to promotion time

An ex gave me an old pair of her’s that she used for work and I’ve been a fan ever since

What part of Claude 3 is open source? I tried to do some googling to find something, but came up short. Got a link?

How does VSCodium differ from the community version?

Those hoo- sorry… who don’t know already will never understand

I’m curious, how did you find out about and start using Lemmy? Most folks on Reddit when the API fiasco was happening acted like you needed to be a tech god to even sign up, so I’m curious if you felt intimidated at all?

If you use LLMs in your professional work, you’re crazy

Eh, we use copilot at work and it can be pretty helpful. You should always check and understand any code you commit to any project, so if you just blindly paste flawed code (like with stack overflow,) that’s kind of on you for not understanding what you’re doing.

Honestly, that makes it funnier to me

I’m on board with bashing project 2025, but I don’t think I’d call those “4th rate universities,” at least not UT Austin

This post makes it seem like the Sichumaria (4.4 out of 5 stars) Long Handle 24.6 inch Shoe Horn actually makes it harder to shoehorn, when the opposite is actually true!

I love my Sichumaria (4.4 out of 5 stars) Long Handle 24.6 inch Shoe Horn!

St. Louis’s Forest Park is bigger still at 5.3 km^2

Above commenter was saying that you’re not allowed to use any other app besides the default messages app to send SMS on an iPhone, so a third party can’t just come in with an SMS app that also implements RCS so everyone can be happy

I still somewhat take issue with that characterization though. It doesn’t just “work for me and that’s okay,” it works period. It has been clinically shown to work for other people too. I only say this because spreading misinformation about it being “pseudoscience” and ineffective only serves to continue some people’s pain and never find an effective treatment for them, and I believe that’s potentially dangerous.

Anything in particular help you shift away from that?

I have gone through some trauma therapy that has helped where no talk therapy has been able to. There are lots of studies showing the effectiveness too. Look up EMDR or brain spotting.

I really just have to push back on the “doing nothing at all” or “talking to a rubber duck” piece because I’d been trying that for years and trauma flashbacks don’t seem just go away on their own.

Anyone from Germany care to comment on why this is? Y’all seem to have such a large presence on here compared to others

Not sure why this got downvoted. Things “just working” have a lot of upsides too: saving time, better accessibility, etc.

The same Patrick Moore who thinks that it’s okay to drink weed killer? Leaving aside his insane stances on climate change, the guy is obviously a crackpot and it’s wild that he is taken seriously by anyone.
