I’ve found it’s kind of a gamble on whether you have a cool manager or not. I have “unlimited” vacation and a chill manager and tend to take 5-7 weeks off a year which is quite high for a mid level programmer in Canada.

It’s been a while since I installed arch manually, but wouldn’t that only help you understand a bit on disk partitioning and some basic commands like copying files/chrooting? You generally learn that stuff the first time your install breaks on any distro

Yuuuup this is my company too. They’re monitoring our GH Copilot /Cursor usage and they’re going to apply to our performance reviews

I asked OP to update the title in another comment which they did (and appreciate) but it made this comment of mine confusing 😅. The original title didn’t have any mention of which country. It just said they were adding a paywall

The original title just said something like “BBC is now paywalled” making it sound like it applied to more than 1 of the 195 (worldometers.info recognised) countries in the world.

I’m not British but it’d be pretty alarming to hear that the BBC was adding a paywall that applied to the British if I was British

Awesome thanks! 😊

I love the US defaultism even when they’re talking about another country’s public news station

(edit: the title originally just said it was adding a paywall without mention of any country)

BBC announced it’s introducing a paywall for consumers in the U.S

It seems like it’s only for the US? If that’s true can you update the title OP

I’m not sure what your point is? I never said cars weren’t leading traffic. I think we’ve both kind of lost the plot here but my point was that cars aren’t a requirement to live. If they are in your city or area (outside of rural), then you should advocate for better transit and urban design.

Also note that I never said cars should be outright banned or anything of that sort

Okay, then advocating for better urban planning and less urban sprawl. Unless you live in a rural area, you shouldn’t be required to go into debt to pay for a multi ton machine to be able to buy food. It’s odd that only in the last hundred years humans have stopped being able to function day to day without vehicles.

So the answer would be to advocate for better public transport

Try living in Ottawa, Ontario (Canada) where if you take the wrong turn, everybody’s suddenly speaking French

I believe there was talk of opening it up to the fediverse but not sure where they landed on it

Edit: From the linked FAQ actually

Does Revolt have federation

As of right now, Revolt does not feature any federation and it is not in our feature roadmap.

However, this does not necessarily mean federation is off the table, possible avenues are:

• Implement our own federation protocol
• Implement a promising up and coming federation protocol, polyproto
• Implement the Matrix protocol (unlikely, obtuse and unstable)
• Implement the XMPP protocol (battle-tested and stable)

Any federation that is implemented MUST exercise caution in:

• Preventing spam and abuse: moderators should be able to block malicious actors
• Protecting user data: users should be able to redact all of their information and messages

This 100%. You’re getting downvoted but I don’t think Americans realize how irritating their fellow countrymen can be on the internet and in person to non Americans. There’s also the defaultism as if everyone is American (or wants to be American) which gets REALLY tiring after a while

The horror movie classic

Fair point lol

Documentation will carry it a bit but yeah, it’ll be an issue

I don’t really. I just sort of reinstall things as I need them

I just keep my home folder backed up safely. The software installed doesn’t really matter to me since I can redownload things pretty quickly
