  • I left reddit during the api drama last year (more than a year?). I did it on principle. The content on lemmy is not comparable to the niche communities on reddit. Yeah, Steve Huffman is a little pissbaby or whatever the current meme is. But lemmy doesn’t have the art communities or the weird goofy shit that reddit did, and as a chronically online loser, my life is a little emptier without it. And I know how stupid and unimportant that is, which is why I’m here and not there.

    Plus the porn on lemmy is just like… so disappointing and sparse.

    Unrelated- I’m ready to switch to Linux, but do I really have to learn what a distro is and how to build my own PC? Can’t I just buy a Linux PC ready to go? Please?


  • I work in horticulture and tend to plants- transplanting into different sized pots, pruning, yknow, physically interacting with plants. I also monitor the environment of the greenhouse- temperature, humidity, amount of water in the soil. Recently my boss has implemented ai and sensors to read the room and adjust the humidity and the temperature and monitor the water levels automatically. It doesn’t work very well, because there arent sensors evwrywhere, and some parts of the greenhouse get better ventilation than others, so the temperature fluctuates. Me and my crew know where the hot spots are, the robots don’t. The plants are suffering. We are doing extra work and killing off more plants on average than we did a few months ago.

    About 1/3 of my crew has quit or been fired over the last year, and none of them have been replaced.

    I’ve asked for a raise because I’m doing a lot more work with a lot less people, but they don’t have the budget for me, since we just implemented all this ai that’s gonna make my job so much easier.

    I got written up for having a bad attitude (aka asking for a raise) and am now on probation at work. I am almost certainly about to lose my physical labor job to a robot and.it is blowing my fucking mind.

    Take care xx



  • You’re thinking of Rhianna and Eminem, love the way you lie,.or something like that. It’s hysterical to me that that’s the song you’re talking abt because the person who originally replied to you suggested Eminem and Dido. So. I think you just don’t like Slim Shady.
