  • My library loan for the Expanse second book expired because I was lazy. Also I had a 5h car trip the other day and decided for the first time to start listening to an audio book! It will take me 20ish hours of listening to finish the first book of Lord of the rings but I am kinda exited about it!

  • People have fun in different ways, I suppose.
  • I and my fiancee play Pandemic with our friends on occasion. We've played the game a lot and know how to do things, and our friends have basically never played it.

    I low key hate it that my fiancee doesn't let our friends do what they want. Instead, she keeps playing for them: "Ok you should go there and cure that one block and use that card to fly there so you (points next person) can trade that card to him next turn". Our friends just have a blank state and go "ooohhookaay" and do it and have zero idea why.

    I try to tell her that just let them play its fine if it is dumb decision, its fine if we lose. But she keeps doing it anyway! I always try to "beat her to the punch" and ask our friends what they want to do and if they don't know maybe give few possibilities and let them decide and hope that my fiancee doesn't interrupt lol.

  • Alec Baldwin's manslaughter trial over Rust shooting has been dismissed
  • No they didn't, or don't have to. I haven't been trained by my boss almost at all, separate people train me on different processes. My boss leads the team, they don't need to know all the details of everyone's job and certainly don't train everyone on everything on what they need to do.

    And while the team is their responsibility and what happens in the team immediately reflects on them, that is not the case legally speaking. Internally sure, someone fucks up in the team and maybe the boss gets canned or whatever, but they are not legally responsible of the entire team.

    Of course this isn't true if the person the boss hires isn't qualified to do the job and were hired because of money, or for instance if that person is way too overworked or are given inadequate tools to their job properly etc.

  • Alec Baldwin's manslaughter trial over Rust shooting has been dismissed
  • Now, if the training was the problem, then it is negligence of the person in charge of team (or whomever gives the ok for them to work in that job) and they should be held accountable. But not their boss(es) too.

  • Alec Baldwin's manslaughter trial over Rust shooting has been dismissed
  • So wait. If I own a factory for instance and I am the CEO or owner or whatnot. I hire few people who are responsible in some parts of the factory. They hire people to do the everyday stuff, maintenance, IT, whatnot.

    Then someone torches the factory down during night shift and someone dies. They go to jail. And everyone above them go to jail because they happened to hire that person?

    Nah fuck that.

    Sure, if you don't vet the people well enough and let someone who is not qualified do something and an accident happens and whatnot. Then the person who hired the person should be held accountable.

  • World hits 12 straight months of record-high temperatures — but as warming continues, it'll be "remembered as comparatively cold"
  • Same as with anything that needs a collection of people to make a change. You just do it so that more people start to do it and at some point that number of people is large enough that it makes a dent. Or more likely, large enough that companies realise potential for profit and invest more into it, making a positive feedback loop.

  • Do you know any singleplayer games that are infinitely replayable?
  • Honesty I'm shocked nobody has mentioned Tales of Maj'Eyal or ToME for short. Extremely deep roguelike with story and it is getting expansions ans updates all the time.

    Also it is open-source, so can be downloaded for free, but I would recommend you also buy it in steam for instance to support it.

  • Mark Meer Wants More People To Play As FemShep In Mass Effect
  • I always tend to think in rpgs what gender seems to fit the kind of a playthrough I'm going for. For some reason if I do something like wood elf ranger it would def be a female. Bulky warrior with a 2h axe? Guy. 1h shield paladin who smites the unjust? Guy. Someone with keen knowledge of the arcane that freezes everything? Female. Cloak and dagger assassin? Female. Pyromancer? Guy. Witch? Female.

    Sometimes I mix things up, like the paladin one. And sure, I also take personality into account which can switch it up.

    Haven't played mass effect so no idea about rhe "classes" in it.

  • The climate case for mock meats is clear. But who can afford them?
  • Don't know about the states, but in Finland the Burger King doesn't use impossible patties but instead patties from the vegetarian butcher.

    Though I guess if the product is called "impossible whopper" then it probably should be done with impossible patties.

  • Anyone think that manual "pouring techniques" are mostly fluff?

    If you search YouTube for V60 brewing videos and guides you'll find about three billion different ones. Some with agitation, some without; pouring fast, in the middle, making circles; 40-60 or 30-70 or whatnot.

    I always think to myself that they're mostly just fluff.

    It all depends on grind size and temperature. Doesn't matter how you pour (well, within limits I would think) as long as you get your temps and grind right for the pouring technique you've chosen.

    Admittedly, I haven't tried a ton of different ones, maybe three or four. But this is the feeling what I've got.

    Maybe there are some edge cases, like Ethiopian coffees being more prone to clogging the filter so less agitation might be a good idea.

    Can you block an entire instance from Thunder?

    Pretty much the title. I could not find an option to do it, nor did I find comments or commits about it.

    BTRFS and moving /home to subvolume, in need of a sanity check.

    So I installed Debian 12 with btrfs and apparently it only uses a single subvolume rootfs. I would like to have my /home in a separate subvolume (and possibly /var too I guess) and with a flat subvolume structure. I started figuring out on how to do it and I feel like I'm not entirely sure yet so I need a sanity check.

    Lots of comments online seem to use something like this method:

    cd / mv /home /home_old btrfs subvolume create home cp -a --reflink=always /home_old/* /home/

    But this would NOT create a flat subvolume structure, right? And you woul NOT need to modify fstab as the /home would be automatically mounted because it resides under rootfs actually because / is rootfs and not its parent?

    If I want to actually have a flat structure, then I would first need to mount the actual parent subvolume (subvolumeid=5), cd into it, then create the home subvolume, copy everything from the current home directory into there, unmount, modify fstab to mount home, and delete the old stuff and reboot I guess.

    Soo something like this:

    mkdir /mnt/tmp Make a folder for mount mount -o subvolid=5 /dev/sdXX /mnt/tmp/ Mount the actual parent subvolume cd /mnt/tmp/ Here 'ls -a' would output 'rootfs' if I understood correctly btrfs subvolume create home Create new subvolume, now being sibling of 'rootfs' cp -a --reflink=always /home/* /mnt/tmp/home/ Copy old /home umount /mnt/tmp/ Don't need it anymore

    Then go to fstab, and do something like

    ... UUID= / btrfs subvol=rootfs bunch_of_options_and_stuff ... -> change into ... UUID= / btrfs subvol=rootfs bunch_of_options_and_stuff UUID= /home btrfs subvol=home bunch_of_options_and_stuff ... Then just rm -rf /home/* (or just move to keep it as backup if something is fucked up) and reboot?

    Does this sound about right?

    Edit:

    Everything went smoothly. Well just don't fuck up fstab like I did. Decided not to make /var into a subvolume because not sure if you can do it the same way, thinking that logs etc are being written all the time so the gap between me copying everything to the subvolume, and eventually booting might make weird things but dunno. Also added compress=zstd into fstab mount options to reduce writes on the ssd.

    permanent "not read" number if reply delete

    I got an answer to a post I made and the person who made it deleted the post. Now there I a permanent "1" on the messages button as if I still have a reply that I have not ticked as "seen". But I can't do it because the button does not exist, assuming this is due to the post being deleted.

    Anything I can do to fix this? It is kinda annoying.

    blocking or filtering communities?

    Is there a way to filter or block communities? Can't browse by new at all because kbin's "random" is filled with spam bots and I'd rather not block entire kbin due to it.

    Wilfa Uniform users?

    Wondering if there are Wilfa Uniform users here and how they are brewing? I've been using the Uniform at 28 for Hario Switch (using default 4min steep recipe) and the same setting for doing drip with Moccamaster. Seems to be working alright.

    Though I just bought this ethiopian coffee that has this fantastic white wine taste to it in the coffee shop (brewed with V60) and when trying it out in the Switch I just got nothing like that. It was still good, but the taste notes were all gone.

    Now I am considering going back to V60. I haven't done V60s it in almost of year because I got annoyed by the fact that I never got the same taste as they did in my local coffee shop. Maybe it is time to have another go.

    Can't find Kbin community?

    Not entirely sure yet how Lemmy works, but I can't find functionalprint in Kbin through Sopuli. Like this works fine: https://sopuli.xyz/c/[email protected] but this: https://sopuli.xyz/c/[email protected] does not, even though https://kbin.social/m/functionalprint exists. Anyone know why this is?
