A lot of malls in Asia have signs that say not to walk on the escalators. So yeah I guess if it breaks you're SOL if the people in front of you aren't rule breakers.
If the conditions are still the same that cause people to want to ask for a 4 day work week, then people will keep asking!
It's like the movie Sliding Doors, except it's a pocket door to your parents guest bathroom.
The part about remote work that has caused things to stagnate is that most companies still aren't setup to hire out of their own state. So it's not done much to open the gate to opportunities that are a great fit and can be done remotely, because I'm in the wrong state. And there's still an attitude of "what would somebody in that place possibly know about things here". The likelihood I will ever be domiciled in the same place as where my perfect job happens to be is super unlikely. This is 95% employers just discriminating based on location because they don't want to do paperwork or have an open mind and 5% not having the benefit of in-person collaboration.
On windows 98 before clearing Internet history was a thing I knew how to do, I would just click log off and login to Windows under another random username.
Bill I really think it's time we form a committee to discuss ways to punish people whose life circumstances aren't described in the bible!
Even better, I do not boil I run though and store in a Brita pitcher that should have had a filter change six months ago!
My moment with T-Mobile was when I got a Pixel and needed the new smaller SIM size and they wanted to charge me. I was like okay well if you won't give me the SIM then I can't pay you for service, and that was that.
If they want to "avoid censorship" (aka put things online they know others find offensive) then those instances should just never turn on federating from the beginning. Because then they cry afoul later when they can't blast their messages to other instances anymore.
Since we're only talking about a week timeline here, would it be possible to update the sync app with a list of popular Lemmy instances and a way to view your favorite one from a web view within the app? That way people could still use sync in the meantime while native features gradually get rolled out.
Do you think there would be use in having a site like upstract.com (the new popurls) that would aggregate the RSS feeds from all Lemmys and people could just browse through popular somewhat curated posts of the day?

In HS photography class the teacher gave us CD-RW discs to use as flash drives to keep our pictures on and they actually lasted all semester using them every day.
