Hospitality worker here. Working weekends means less time to socialise with friends who are on a M-F schedule and less opportunity to attend events in general because they’re usually scheduled on weekends. You’ll have to put more effort into staying in touch with people and finding things to do on your days off.

Yeah, I support people making better lifestyle choices and all, but let’s not forget that the majority of food waste globally is pre-consumer.

This reeks of “personal carbon footprint” style blame shifting.

With a little fucking around I’m fairly sure you could do it on the phone itself via termux.

Core 2 Duo.

Uhh… Did nobody check with Intel about this?

There’s a repo for it maintained by ghost, but you have to do the install and setup yourself. Can’t vouch for reliability, never used it.

Pretty sure if you self host your own ghost install it’s already available.

I’m at least 80% sure this site is all AI spam.

I have a terrible feeling it’s a compromised webcam.

I suspect that’s kind of the point, or at least works in their favour. If you don’t know about it, you’re probably pretty new here and therefore a better candidate for a victim.

I had a single post federate onto my instance a couple weeks ago. Not sure what’s going on.

Saw it coming but I didn’t think it’d be that quick.

I had a couple hours free before work today and my cursed brain won’t let shit like this go without looking it up, so I went and did a quick scan of the literature. Like I said, it’s outside my field so I’m probably missing a lot of nuance (and I welcome any actual psychs to check in and correct me), but Psychiatric Epidemiology is a thing, and they’re well aware of the association between socioeconomic position and mental health. These seem to be the people working on policy, for example building an evidence base for UBI. Of course all that relies on governments that actually give a shit and are willing to listen to evidence, but yeah, class-conscious psychs are out there. They’re just not taking clients.

Yes, fuck Amazon and Bezos. No argument there. But this also helps people who have previously paid for content to break out of Amazon lock-in while keeping what they’ve paid for. You don’t have to buy new stuff, but this means you can keep the old stuff.

Psych isn’t my field, but in dietetics and nutrition there’s a tendency to treat socioeconomic and societal issues (aka material conditions) as kind of a force of nature. This isn’t true for 100% of people in the field, but the ones that do catch on tend to end up in policy, advocacy, public health or other niches that actually try to work on systemic issues rather than in clinical settings. I wouldn’t be surprised if psych was similar; it’s not that those issues aren’t acknowledged by the field as a whole, but the individuals who end up in clinical settings don’t focus on them for whatever reason. There’s likely a lot more behind the scenes who are actually working for change, you just don’t see them because they’re not working with individuals.

First time I ducked into a Dresden opticians for an eye test they straight up told me; “Nope, you don’t need new glasses.” Instant loyalty from me, and since then they’ve done it twice more.

They also manufacture their frames independently from recycled plastic so they’re not beholden to Luxottica.

Wonder how long we’ll have to wait for the PC port.

Surprised you haven’t heard, it’s a whole big thing. They lost access to their domain and shut down federation while it gets sorted out. Last I heard they have the domain back and will refederate once some other technical shit is in place. Try !HexbearEmbassy@lemmygrad.ml for updates. I miss them too.

Behind!

If you’ve worked in hospitality, you know.

Subdermal armour. Like a flexible, slash-resistant, heatproof mesh under the skin. I work in a kitchen so it’d be nice to be able to ignore those pesky little nicks and burns.
