I agree with your sentiment, that's what they should be, but time and time again we saw that it is not how they are used, downvotes mostly serve to mark disagreement , doesn't matter that you provide interesting discussion, if people disagree then the comment gets downvotes to oblivion. And the platform turns into an echo chamber where only one opinion can ever exist.

I was about to say this, that movie is such a gem. Saw it in theater without knowing what it would be.

In 2000, there was a February 29, because it was a multiple of 4, and despite being a multiple of 100 it was also a multiple of 400. It was the exception of the exception of the exception. My parents signed their divorce on that day. Which makes it extra memorable for me. What a day 😀 !!

Having a nice run (sh.itjust.works)

Lost in ante 15, It needed 7.7e16, and I only managed 6.5e15.

If anyone is interested, the seed was KZ33819M

This is the furthest I've been ever. That was quite the rush of adrenaline :-D

What is this ? (sh.itjust.works)

Anyone know what this is ? I found it in my kitchen, I am in the center of France if that helps.

Claude 3.5 said it's an aphid, but I lack the knowledge to confirm it.

Whatever it is, should I be worried ?

Open source ? Does that mean I can host my own ? Would it be compatible with other self hosted instance ?

EDIT: the only source code I found hasn't been maintained for 3 years.

I know it's not a new problem, but I don't know what I can or should do..

I'm made a design that I shared for free on thingiverse under a Creative commons, attributions, non-commercial license.

I've been made aware today that two etsy sellers are using my design, they didn't ask me and they don't attribute me. I don't particularly mind that people print and sell my design (I understand the added value of it already being printed for the user) , but I feel it is unfair to buyers to not be made aware that the design is free and they could easily get it printed cheaper elsewhere (design is small, it's like half a dollar worth of plastic).

It would also have been nice to send me a share of the profit made from my design..

What can I do or should I do ?

Can you guys stop talking about your ex ? You're with lemmy now, forget about the old bitch.

Yes there is, you could press it and put in a cocktail !

Seriously though you can very legaly copy the bios from your own officially bought switch, copy your legaly bought cartridge, and use them to play the emulator. All of which is legal, just like you could buy spare parts and build your own switch, and copy the bios from a legaly bought one. I'm not going to pretend people do that, but it is possible to use it in a legal manner.

I'm currently living through my most stessful week of my life: About a year and a half ago, I bought a plot of land with the project of building a home there, inflation and loan rate kicked in, so I thought "alright let's wait a bit see when it stabilizes", this week I learned my plot is planned to be removed from the "buildable" area. If I don't put a building permit to the city council before this is voted my land will basically see it's value divided by 20 and I won't be able to build a house there, I put 6 years of savings into this project.. all because my gov decided that they didn't want this area to be urbanised anymore.

I have trouble sleeping and working I can't think of anything else, I also lost my appetite.

Although I agree with what everyone is saying "that it make sense to compensate workers for the commute in time and money", I'd like to nuance a little, because I think it is a bit more complicated from a moral standpoint: Imagine employer were paying for your commute and you were on the clock during it, what happen when you move to another appartment/house further from work ? Should the employer continue to pay and clock your longer commute ? It seems weird that my decision to move to another part of the city would affect my employer. The consequence would be that employer will mandate that you cannot move without their appoval or that their cost for your commute is fixed in the contract and need to be renegociable. In the end what it boils down to is not that commute should be paid for and part of the work day. What people want is better salaries and smaller hours. Then the commute doesn't matter anymore, and stays at the expense of the worker who can therefore move wherever they want.
