Maybe we need to make freight trains a thing again. Less stress on the roads, less infrastructure changes.

Cool. I have to admit I haven’t bought anything there for more than a decade, there was a non-zero chance they went to shit.

20 years ago, if you wanted a decent guitar in France, you bought it from Thomann.de

Fun fact, Canada owns land at Vimy Ridge in northern France, given to them in perpetuity to honor Canadian soldiers fallen in WWI. Which means Canada has land borders with France and Denmark.
Therefore, Canada is basically as European as Germany.

Well, webOS is alive and well… It just became the shittiest spy-TV ad-ridden cancer in existence at the hands of LG…

on Wait, there's books and classes on linux? in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world · 13 Sep 2026
Rawdogging gang represent!
I started in the late 90’s with a Mandrake CD from a magazine. No internet meant nothing more than “this is interesting but I can’t do anything with yet”.
Then in school we were given a PC, an internet connection and we burned a Debian 3 CD. I became expert at reinstalling it because at the time it was the “simplest” way to unfuck what I fucked up.
Then I just winged it at work and learned a lot.
Then I just moved every system at home to Linux. Never looked back.
Sometimes I feel I still know nothing. But then, when asked to do any administrative task on Winslop/macOS that I know can do in a few seconds on Linux, I feel so hapless and inefficient that I feel it must amount to something.

on Remote workers report the highest well-being in study of 7,700 employees: while those who worked entirely onsite reported the lowest. in c/technology@lemmy.world · 19 Aug 2026
Of course. In this case productivity is a shorthand for obedience. If you do everything I tell you to do, when I tell you to do it and have it done before I need it so I can look good to my managers, then I will deem you productive. Meanwhile, their requirements are completely fucked up and impossible to implement as is, and the deadline is impossible to achieve.

I fucking hate politics so much…
There’s a guy in my team. I need to push him into a more advanced role. Because he deserves it, and because otherwise I might lose him. I brought him in from another team where things were going bad. Real bad. Turns out, all he needed was a human working with another human, not an type 1 cunt demanding output from a walking, breathing toolset. He already fits and fills that role within the team, but I need to make it official. Better pay, more perspectives. I know I’m gonna get cockblocked by the fuckers who still hate him for the wrong reasons. Career reviews are at the end of the year and I already dread it. I need to get involved in politics and I’m terrified of it.

I became a manager about a year ago. Now that I’m part of the “inner circle”, I can see firsthand what I suspected for the past 20 years.
There are 2 types of managers.
There are cunts bosses who treat their employees as property for their personal gain and advancement. They demand productivity at all costs (see: LLM-cogsuckers), punish for mistakes and pressure people into responsibilities they should take. They are the ones who want RTO to exert control on their employees. They are the ones who “joke” you must take a half-day leave if you need to go before 6PM. They are the ones who openly shit on their employees (or other teams employees FWIW) because they’re not benefiting them enough. They are not part of the team, they feel and act above everyone in it.
The second type, which I strive to be and most of my closest “manager friend” are, are servant-leaders. They want to get shit done by easing roadblocks and making technologically informed decisions. They understand that productivity is a consequence of a functional team and happy employees. They take on responsibility for mistakes and push the team towards finding solutions to prevent them. They understand that Life^TM^ is more important than work. They are an integral part of the team, they’re not the boss but a full member with a different role and different responsibilities, like a PO or a data analyst.
As a tech lead first and a trained Scrum Master second, I feel much more comfortable in the second role. I help the team internally and report and manage external roadblocks with other teams. It’s what I already know. I hate the hierarchical part of the job.

on YouTube’s AI slop detector incorrectly targets Kurzgesagt as other creators fear same fate - Dexerto in c/technology@lemmy.world · 7 Aug 2026
One of the largest slop-machines targeting one of the most vocal and popular anti-slop edutainment channels as slop feels like a targeted attack…
You’re right. A lightbulb plugged into a potato is the real minimum system requirement.
