The other commenter covered it, didn't get there in time. People are probably downvoting me because they likely use cv this way. Additionally, some may think I'm in academia and being elitist, though I'm a college dropout who, until recently, was a cook. I just believe words have meaning.

Does it bother anyone else that resume and cv are used interchangeably now? They are not the same thing, and no, you do not look more intelligent calling your resume a cv.

I was honestly surprised at the number of people fully exposing their face at mine. 50501 does a good job at deescelation and keeping things civil, so I had minimal ppe (just eyes and ears) but still obscured my face. Many folks didn't even do the basics of hiding their identity and it made me a bit concerned for them, particularly the vulnerable. It also made me quite proud of them for showing up without fear or concern, to let themselves be heard.

I didn't even know this existed until now.

Welp, folks are about to see who the military really is. Maybe this will help dismantle the civic religion.

Several of those countries still support monarchies, so it could be that, though it is likely more in solidarity. Just like the floyd protests, there were demonstrations in over 60 countries. Protesting at the embassies does send a message to the administration and its lackeys.

You know it's bad when Sony is issuing refunds.

That was pretty wild to see.

A 42 year old man stopped taking his meds and started doing ketamine because a chat bot told him he could escape the matrix. I believe this man's mental health struggles extend beyond anxiety. This is wholly absurd.

Why should speculators be made whole first?

That would be un-american!

 

I'm not sure why, but there has been an increase in the use of the large emojis lately outside of their instance of origin. It really ruins the experience on mobile, especially when there are several in a row. Furthermore, I have nsfw blocked because I use this at work, and now there are giant emojis of a pigs shit covered balls on my screen.

 

I'm backing up my windows device today and plan on installing a Linux distro. My primary use for this PC is gaming, though I do complete some banking and other tasks I find cumbersome on my phone.

My technical skill level is "knows enough to get into the shit, but not enough to get out." I did use Ubuntu exclusively for a period of about 3-5 years over a decade ago.

One con I've found regarding this OS is that it has "no browser in Live environment," but I have no idea what that means.

If anyone has experience with this OS or good tips/recommendations, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
