Are you able to attach a reference from the local manager in your application? Can you attach a cover letter?

If you see the listing, can you basically paraphrase each qualification and/or key duty and tie it to your experience on your resumé? I don’t know what ARC role is but for example, “Sorted 100s of files per day as a Mytown Public Library volunteer.”

☁️✊️😠 “We didn’t need a robot’s help, we were perfectly capable of accidentally sudo rm -rf /* ing our disks on our own!”

I’ll be honest, I don’t like the way AI is pushed and speculation ruining the price of computing, but it has helped me once or twice. For example I used someone’s vibecoded driver patch to get a relatively ancient audio interface working, which was the last thing that I would have missed using Windows for.

Congrats on making the jump! Have a nice time with us on Lemmy and Piefed.

It appears the rear fell off. Senator, is this a state such a craft could typically find itself?

Biggest for me is no promoted garbage. Second is that I can have more indepth conversations than on Reddit. Your replies can get seen if you post on “Hot” even if they’re not cheesy one-liners. Quality of discussion is far better than my last few years of using Reddit full time (until 2023).

Once in a while I glance at the Reddit website and there’s just so much short form video on the front page that it’s so annoying to know what’s going on.

Of course the more popular discussion topics (USA, tech, politics) are largely going to be the same as Reddit.

One advantage of this model is that moderation is more tailored to the instance topics of interest, without losing too much of the wider sphere. So .world can handle most of the popular general topics, but mander can handle moderation of topics from a more scientific lens, .dbzer0 can handle the intricacies around copyright law, .blahaj zone vehemently protects users right to call themselves whatever they wish, so on and so forth. With Reddit, if the site admins don’t like something you do, you get shut down no matter whether the community there accepts it or not. Here, if that happens and is unpopular, people can leave and go to another domain without leaving the federated network. Another is that servers hosted in countries outside the USA (feddit.de, lemmy.ca etc.) don’t necessarily have to follow USA law, while Reddit does.

Many small server instances are paid for out of pocket (you can make your own too, about $60/year renting a cloud server and $10/year for a domain name). Bigger servers rely on user donations.

The Lemmy software development relies on donations as well, but they also receive grants from NLNet. Some of the grants are tied to accomplishing specific features. Third party app developers generally rely on donation support as well, if they’re not doing it just for the fun of it. Unsupported projects tend to get dropped after a while, though, so money does help keep up motivation.

If you can be respectful of the local culture where you’re visiting while you’re there, you’ll be fine. Being an obnoxious American tourist is just as bad as an obnoxious Chinese tourist. Outside of unwarranted xenophobia, your behaviour matters more than your race.

What’s going on in the Adirondack mountain range in upstate New York?

Trump hikes Americans’ (Democrats and Republicans alike) cost of living “just for fun”.

Trump and his staffers are desperately trying to find a way to TACO but still somehow claim victory like his other two expeditions in Venezuela and Iran (2025), because it clearly didn’t have the effect they thought it would have like when Bush II did it.

Unlike the US, Iranian forces had a plan that was formulated for years. Doesn’t mean things will go as they envision, due to US, Israeli, Gulf state, and internal factors putting a lot of uncertainty in the mix. Iran is okay with the current situation in the short term (again unlike the US), but there is elevated risk for a potential coup, an Israeli-style drawn out genocide and annexation, just a stalemate war of air defense attrition, or who knows what in Iran. There will be pressure from all sides to figure something amicable between the belligerents, hopefully sooner than later.

I predict: Oil/gas prices will stay high for months, air ship and truck transportation costs will be somewhat higher and goods will be a little higher for the same period. Over the next year, governments, businesses and people will turn to electricity and renewables pretty much out of necessity (look at Indian residents turning to Induction Stoves in droves) that will lower our needs for fuel which will hopefully offset the shock from future oil supply crunches. Optimistically, it could accelerate the world’s efforts to net zero.

TIL it has purposely not been implemented by the main developers in over a decade for ideological reasons. There are scripts and forks to enable it by default.

Aside from the point that Jellyfin is meant to browse your own personal collection of files usually after the fact…

Some file formats like mkv do work even if partially downloaded, so if you’re downloading a torrent for a free libre open source movie, choose the option to download chunks in sequential order, and I think there’s a way that you can watch while downloading.

It’s an accurate snapshot of the American executive branch right now… the moron MAGA President asleep at the wheel, the moron MAGA underlings putting on full display their idiotic rendition of fascism.

Well just like a MATLAB plotting program “draws” lines and curves and stuff, Claude is a programs that puts together various reasonings based on the mathematician’s input.

An actually interesting use of artificial intelligence being able to accomplish something, when put in the hands of expert mathematicians. Definitely a lot of coaxing it back to doing the task correctly but it is pretty cool that it can solve problems (even if they are math nerd ones) in a way that are independently verifiable.

So capturing Maduro as Trump’s “Mission Accomplished”™ participation prize trophy wasn’t enough I guess. Once the Iran conflict gets stale, the administration will need to have another distraction from the Epstein Files ready.

“Production-ready”

I totally believe it’s ready for production at Microslop Corporation. They need a larger % of code written by AI, of course.

While I’d prefer better off-by-default and making AI opt-in, this is the next best option. Good job Mozilla.

Every part of this “Board of Peace” plan is designed to funnel money to Trump connected entities. Perhaps next meeting they’ll discuss opening Trump’s 7th casino attempt in the Gaza strip.

There aren’t many Linux problems that cannot be fixed in one way or another.

Even with the messed up resolution on Pop, can you connect to the internet and open a browser? From your desktop, usually you can press the Super (Windows) key on your keyboard, then type firefox and press enter to get the browser. Similar with “terminal” to get the terminal. From there you have a number of options.

Option 1. Couldn’t you try booting from the same USB you used to install Pop OS again? Then avoid the Proprietary graphics option, use Nouveau graphics instead then install the last version of the Nvidia driver that supports the 1080 ti.

Option 2. Get another USB stick you don’t need for anything else on hand. Download the software Balena etcher from https://etcher.balena.io/ go into file properties to make the program executable. Then download bazzite and get the version with old nvidia drivers. Then insert the USB and use Etcher to flash the disk image to it. Boot to the USB.

Option 3. Uninstall and reinstall an older version of the nvidia drivers in the terminal to try to salvage your current Pop OS! installation.
