It took me a second watchthrough to fully grasp what was happening, but you're spot on.

Guy was supposed to get out, they just upped his sentence and moved him.

That's true, the totally real guy did go to the back, make 5-6 bags of nuggets in the 4 fryers which take about 5 mins each, and no one else who worked there stopped him or called him out on it.

Like seriously, unless it was a supervisor/manager (unlikely), they would have just been kicked out of the store.

No way. Don't believe this. Worked for 5 years at a busy McDonald's. There is NO WAY an entire bag of nuggets would just be ready somewhere. We kept two trays going, each one had about 20 nuggets or so in it max. If this was lunch rush they might have 40 nuggets up at once, but then they were so busy they just dumped them all here.

If it was down time they may be a few available, like 10-20 getting old they need to get rid of anyway. Fine. That's plausible.

Even end of day you don't have a bag of nuggets of waste. Of you did your supervisor would be pissed at you for mismanaging your rotation so poorly over the day.

Zero way this is real. Dude clearly dumped a few on top of a full bag to get internet clout.

They'll be fully vertically integrated they mean.

Lovers in a dangerous spacetime was a ton of fun! Very adorable, simple mechanics, plays on one screen, and not too hard. Also came out over 5 years ago so win win

Such a weird way to put the question. Your question has nothing to do with boomers. It's who abuses their guitars the most.

If your question was actually who's the most boomer guitar hero, the only answer would be Ted Nugent.

So weird. Watched all good things last night.

Like I said, I was agreeing with your title. Thought we were going to have an interesting conversation on AI generated rage bait. Here we are instead.

Technically, I didn't read the post, but agreed with your title. Then all of your comments after I've accused of baiting, but yeah maybe the post was just to bait too.

[–] scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech 3 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Stop trying to bait us.

No. No it was not. None of them have been.

Let's take your first question.

Honest question, are you good just passively watching all this MAGA shit spread?

There was nothing honest about this. I said I didn't want to read the Facebook post. An honest question would have been:

I know there are many reasons why not you but why don't you want to go on Facebook?

That's an honest question.

You had a very obvious agenda. You are obviously trying to bait me into some argument, which I am not getting into with you. Your question was completely dishonest, because it both did not ask me about anything relevant to what I said, and there was also no way for me to answer you without you having a fully planned response.

We aren't taking the rage bait. That's for Facebook. Stop trying to bait us.

Hear me out, maybe we need to teach the kid that hitting isn't okay even when they're hungry

I've been using Insomnia, but it seems they've enshittified. I started it up after an upgrade and found that Environments are now paywalled/behind an account. Is there a true open-source alternative to Postman/Insomnia anyone recommends?

 

Inspired by the post about cold-war era holiday specials, what creepy cartoons or claymations scarred you for life?

For me it was Twas the Night Before Christmas . The animation was too goofy and I swear my Megalophobia comes partly from the clock tower in that show. I don't know why but it made me so uneasy that even now large clock towers make me feel weird.

 

I'm very torn about it. Curious to here what others think

 

JeffTek, a small creator made "What Happened To Linus Tech Tips" last week, going over some of the public issues of the channel and it's falling out. (Main link on this thread, also here ) IMO very fair, straight to the facts, a bit of his own opinion in there, but he defended Linus on multiple steps too.

Linus catches wind and goes to R_ddit, putting the guy on blast for "rehashing things from the past". Not wrong... but weird for the CEO to do this directly in a Reddit thread.

JeffTek now responds to the comments in his latest video.

 

Unique ask, but I hope some folks here will help me out a bit. I'm talking with a youtube creator who focuses on waste in society, and they are interested in doing a youtube video on Windows 11 and the planned obsolence around ending Windows 10, and requiring the TPM.

Part of this that I'm pushing is the "Don't throw it out, install Linux". While I can describe a good amount, does anyone have any good resources that you recommend that I can forward on about what Linux is, and why someone may want to look into it? This would be for someone who is non technical - think an average Macbook user.

Appreciate any links or youtube videos or anything you may have stored away for this teaching Linux!

 

Currently I have random docs/how-tos for my network stored in a forgejo repo, just a bunch of READMEs. I'd like to somehow make that a bit more official, I like writing it in markdown/git and having source control, but was wondering if anyone has a good wiki tool they like that can consume that and make it more hostable? Thanks!

Fairphone 6 in US (poptalk.scrubbles.tech)
 

My phone is definitely showing it's age, about 5 years old now, battery doesn't last more than 7ish hours. I've done research and if possible, I think I'd like to get the Fairphone. Does anyone have experience with it in the US? I know I'd have to import it, but using local carriers how well does it work?

 

A bit dumbfounded and just had to express it.

I had a 7 hour flight a couple of days ago and it had free wifi on the flight. Neat, I get to message people on the plane. However, I feel that for that long you still bring a book, or puzzles, or in my case I brought my Deck and played games for the duration of the flight.

The guy next to me though watched TikTok for the entire flight. 7 hours of constant stream of algorithm content to his face. I kind of understand why it's so addicting, it just keeps coming and coming with no end. I was just astonished with how he could keep going for 7 hours. An hour fine, it's a lot but we've all lost ourselves for an hour. 7 hours of constant feed though.

Idk, people come here to Lemmy and the Fediverse and say there isn't enough content. Well if 7 hours of content like that is expected it's too freaking much. If anything I feel I'm much healthier with social media now. Maybe they're angry because it feels more like a withdrawal.

No real point to this post beyond that. Just a very interesting thing to witness.
