Thanks, I'm just trying to hang in there until things get better

40

I'm supposed to be on vacation but I've spent it caring for other people and never myself. I know I feel like an asshole just saying that. But it's wearing me down.
I'm a single dad and I can't seem to make enough money to survive, but it seems like everyone depends on me. My mother has cancer and I have to be there for her. My best friend caught his wife cheating and he moved in with me since he would be homeless otherwise. He has a job but it pays maybe $300 a month but he can't seem to get better work because he's disabled. So I'm basically supporting him and his daughter who is here as well. His ex contributes just enough to cover bus fare for his daughter to get to school.
I'm fighting a custody battle after years of abuse and I'm fucking terrified that the judge will eventually give my ex custody because the court in my country never awards custody to the father. Even though she's been documented medically abusing our daughter. She contributes nothing to support our daughter and seldom tries to even see her.
And my boss turned me down when another department asked for me to work there for more pay. His reason was that it was too short notice and that he needs me. That extra money would have helped so much with the above issues but he can't be inconvenienced. I'm looking to leave but the job market here is shit and that opportunity was extremely rare.

I'll reserve judgment until the end of the season. But so far it's good. I just don't like how cold Bruce is towards Alfred

I don't think we should be testing this. In any case, most dictators were barely smart enough to keep the right people happy for long enough to hold power.

  1. Create a database,
  2. Have organisation manually populated it with lots of records using a web app,
  3. accidentally delete database.

All in between the backup window.

Darknet Diaries - stories from the dark side of the internet. The host interviews hackers, security experts and convicted felons, as well as his own researched stories.

Stuff you should know - hosts chat tell you everything you want to know about different random topics.

Behind the bastards - a different take on different bastards throughout history.

You're wrong about - the hosts chat about people and events that you may have had some misconceptions about.

This will be a repeat of the 2020 election. "We will definitely win and if we don't, it's because the court is unfair".

The question is will his idiot followers storm the courthouse after the verdict?

Two reasons:

  1. Lemmy admins aren't accountable to investors or shareholders so there's no pressure to make things worse.
  2. If enhsittification happens on any instance. Like it's owned by a cooperation. Then other instances can block it/defederate, or users can move to another instance

If it's based on Debian then 90% of guides online will work with it anyway

The core problem is education and bad UX. People are taught how to do specific things (click here, type this word, press this button) without ever being told why. And the bad UX discourages exploration of different ways of doing things. So it never occurs to them that there might be a better way.

Personally, I think it's ok for people to not have a deep understanding of their computer, but if you use one for hours every day, it makes sense that you know how to use it. Just like I don't expect a driver to know how to take apart an engine but they should know how to change a flat or put in coolant.
