neidu3@sh.itjust.worksto Ask@lemm.ee•What's a luxury you bought yourself that you're really glad you did?English7·23 hours agoAntenna on the roof is better than an antenna in my pocket. And now my kids can autoconnect their phones and tablets without me having to activate a Hotspot. And cellular data is pretty cheap here anyway.
neidu3@sh.itjust.worksto Ask@lemm.ee•What's a luxury you bought yourself that you're really glad you did?English6·23 hours agoOff the top of my head: Leather seats, AC, scheduled preheating, cruise control, modem and wifi, loads of 12V and USB outlets throughout the interior, sun roof, seats that all have more adjustment points than I have joints, HUD, steering wheel heating, automatic high beam dimming, lane assist that actually works, good sound, ability to save and recall presets for seat and mirror adjustments, 360 degree camera view, Bluetooth that isn’t a PITA to use,
And most surprisingly: An app that is actually useful - it let’s me remote start and lock/unlock the car as well as upload navigation destinations to the infotainment system. And it notifies me if I forget to lock my car (which I now have started caring about for the first time in 20 years). It also automatically logs trips with addresses, making it convenient for when I need to file an expense claim for work.

My old car was durable as hell, easy to maintain and all that. But my new car has so many creature comforts that I cannot imagine myself without them anymore.
Plus with 7 seats and AWD the entire household finally fits inside, and the mountainous terrain where we live is no longer a problem when the roads start icing up 8n the winter.

How do you use/abuse your new tool?English3·1 day agoHook it into a perl script to automate a lot of both my job and my work email.
I would tell nobody, but seem superhuman in terms of information I can conjure.

neidu3@sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•As a child of the 90s we grew up with PC Political Correctness. Is that WOKE but just in a different form?English74·2 days agoThey’re related but not the same. Political correctness is about taking steps not to offend anyone. Wokeism is more about acknowledging societal issues and lack of inclusivity.
Mainly making sure they’re fed, clothed, and not tearing down the house. Outside that, it’s a mix of D&D, road trips, games or movie night.
I don’t, honestly. Due to being a family man, weekends aren’t that relaxing. Plus my job is pretty chill, so my job isn’t that taxing either - Mondays usually mean that everyone but me leaves the house for work and school, so I can hear myself think.

neidu3@sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What's the significance of/context behind this quote?English10·2 days agoShort answer: 1000 came before 500.
Nuanced answer: An Amiga (don’t recall the original name) was released at some point, and Amiga decided to make a cheaper alternative. This cheaper alternative was the 500, and the older model was retroactively renamed 1000.

Norway, here. It’s a public holiday and it’s common for workers unions to cooperate and get some sort of event going such as a parade or similar.

Extremely far away from Led Zeppelin. But it’s just so nice and soothing.
Also, “Peace love and understanding” from the same album, for the same reasons.
Yeah, that was my impression too. He started like a “normal” backpacker who traveled europe to see other places, but unfortunately “free spirit supporting Palestine” to “contrarian susceptible to russian propaganda” is a really short pipeline.
Just for the record, there is absolutely nothing wrong with supporting Palestine, in fact I do so myself. But sadly too large part of this segment of people tend to sway too far into the “west bad” direction.
I can’t speak on behalf the other moderators, but what I can say is that personally I have a pretty high bar for actually deleting stuff.
If a post or comment is clearly in breach of rules AND (offensive OR spam OR of no quality), then I might delete it. If it’s only mildly against the rules and it isn’t really hurting anyone, I might just lock it - most content have an audience, even if it’s technically against the rules.
Sometimes I even leave a post intact with the only mod action that I pin a comment saying something along the lines of “Technically against the rules, but it gets to stay because of (insert reason)”
