Lols. Yea i actually hate that. No i gave been begging my org to just treat interns differently and actually help them rather than let them sink or swim. Most of the interns we get are expected to know all the ins and outs, but they are just kids yet basically. So i think hiring managers honestly should lower the bar and then the org needs to properly train and teach them to get em up to speed. Maybe it takes six months but it’s about time we start investing in our people.

This is why i went to Linux. This stuff needs to stop.

1. college doesn’t teach much.
2. college is still useful tho. It does require some determination and persistence to get through, or at least tolerance for dealing with. “This is the way to learn” junk.
3. most actually useful knowledge is gained on the job
4. I think most people fresh out of high school aren’t ready for a real job, but college grads are barely ready too to be honest. Hyper generalized and i bet most people reading this are actually very qualified, that said I’ve met many college grads interning with us who just don’t have the fortitude to do it just yet, hopefully by their second job they’ve grown accustomed to the dumb way of life we all call work.

Interesting how the entire top of just spongebob characters…

Yea, the whole thing has always given me a lot of pause when I comes to GOS. I’m sure it’s still an awesome solution, but makes me think twice. In the end I have literally zero need or desire for anything Google running on my phone so I’m on calyx.

Everything is declared, from packages to configuration, and then I can put it in a git repo locked to versions. If something breaks on updates, you have free rollbacks. Which means you can’t screw up too much. Also it has almost all the software.

Tell me your a developer without telling me you’re a developer

While that’s true, all the things they built are individual and open source, it wouldn’t take too much work for sometime who knows how to package things up for a phone app. That said, you’d need another device to do all the processing.

I’ll be honest, I’ve used scribus some and have not liked it. I hope that this makes it better. I much prefer a local Foss program to being forced to run a VM for publisher or make stuff in canva.

Came for this. Stayed for the other comments.

Relevant xkcd.

I guess I’d agree. I’m just quite pessimistic and view that almost all people are quite corrupted and checks and balances of a sort reign it in.

I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say power does corrupt. For almost all of history, any sort of power eventually comes with corruption. Its kinda the human condition. That being said, I do think there are ways of minimizing that corruption and defending against it.

Yea that’s basically sonarr with a downloader like transmission. Which are separate from jellyfin. Go here to learn for to set it all up. servarr

They keep the data to themselves as it is their secret sauce to deliver ads.

I don’t think that’s entirely true. They won’t sell direct data, but through their ad and search systems your ads can drill down to very specific people and thus you know about them. It’s still crappy. It’s kinda unfair I think to outright say they don’t sell your data. You data is their core money maker. It’s just in a round about way. Sure maybe it doesn’t bother you, but in my opinion, the collection of data is the core problem with modern technology, not even just the internet. Data is extremely powerful and valuable.

Wait, I did wake up at 4am today… Shoot
