    This is not how jobs work. It never has been.

    Do more than expected, and that becomes your new expected output. Get the same money, over years, which doesn’t keep up with CoL and translates to a pay reduction. Jump to another job, maybe, if you can manage to do so after exhaustion from working “more than expected” and then going home to take care of life responsibility.


  • Nah, take as much time as possible, and also always avoid the self-checkout. Don’t play along with these corporations trying to eliminate jobs, give the cashiers job security by asking lots of questions and taking your sweet ass time at the register. If you have to do self-checkout because there’s no open cashiers, always ask for assistance from the nearest attendant.


  • it really took away my ability to sell end to encryption to friends and family

    As I understand it, SMS and MMS aren’t encrypted (and that’s why support was dropped. Unfortunately, you were never selling your friends e2e as long as they kept using SMS, even if they used it through Signal. In fact, it’s arguable that the false perception of security in “now I’m texting through Signal, and that means it’s secure!” was even more damaging than never having switched in the first place. (Unless they went all the way and stopped using SMS, of course.)

    So, nothing is lost from that perspective. Now you can more accurately recommend ppl to use Signal messages instead of SMS and know that you are more accurately selling e2e with every convert because they can’t keep using insecure messaging through Signal.


  • I’m not familiar with turc style toilets, so I did a Google, and I’m still not sure what I’m looking at here. Could you explain how it works? I figure you are supposed to squat over it (which sounds sensible, I mean westerners buy those goofy squatty potty things to awkwardly emulate this) but I don’t understand what the bucket is for? Or why there’s a spigot at the floor level a meter away from the toilet?

    Please have mercy on a confused westerner who wants to understand 😅
