I’m not disagreeing but I also see that the judicial system is pretty bad right now.

I’m guessing if anything happened to him under Democrat lawmakers, he’d just make himself out to be a martyr. It’s kind of a lose-lose situation for Biden to do anything about. To be honest. I don’t know who has that power anyway.

I can’t answer this for all FBI but Trump did fire this guy during an investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. Two days before he was set to retire…

BonziBuddy! I had completely erased that from my brain. Whoa!

This. I never got a PS5 and it hasn’t impacted me at almost at all. Everything I’ve wanted to play has also come out of PS4 and plays just fine.

Idk…some animals are just like that. I have two dogs. One is unquestionably a dog. One might be an animorph or a human trapped in a dogs body. He’s so much smarter. I don’t teach him things but he figures it out in his own. Ex: opening doors, making trades, knowing individual names of people/animals, etc. I didn’t teach him any of that.

And when I adopted the “dog” dog he would look at what the “human” dog was doing and copy it to get treats.

It wouldn’t surprise me if a cat wanted attention so it acted like someone else. Sometimes, I suspect animals are a lot smarter and more aware than humans give them credit for.

Hello! Don’t know if this is the right community to post this question, but maybe you can help.

I want to learn about cars and engines. I’m a pretty mechanical person and I like to tinker. I can do basics, like changing my own oil etc.

I want to do some hands on learning, but I don’t have a ton of money to spend or space to work in. I was wondering if you had suggestions on something small and affordable I can get to learn about engines. I was thinking a lawn mower or a scooter but I don’t know how similar those would be to a car.

Do you have any advice?

Mixed feelings about this too. I want to know that a prescriber is taking it seriously, but also, making a doctors appointment is surprisingly really hard for me to do. I don’t mean because of a busy schedule. I meant it is just really difficult for some neurodivergent people to do things that other people can do easily.

Online treatment has made it more accessible for people like me and I may not have sought treatment otherwise.

My favorite is when the title says remote or local to you, but then the body of the posting says you would be required to relocate and that it was intentionally posted in multiple cities to reach a wider audience.

If I wanted to work in Minnesota, I would have searched for jobs in Minnesota.

How do you stayed focused on a task when the task involves some type of waiting?

For example, I have a really hard time staying focused at work. The problem for me is, our software can be really really really slow. While I’m waiting for Outlook to load an email, or our internal tooling to populate data, I find my mind is wandering. Often, I’ll start on another task or pick up my phone and just completely forget about the first thing I started.

At the end of the day, I have to figure out why I have 8 half written emails open in the background of my PC.

How do you stay on track when your tasks require patience?

I’ve seen this show thousands of times. I have most of it memorized to the point where I can recite it from memory, but I still catch new things all the time. That’s one of my favorite things about this show.

What’s something you realized after rewatching the show several times?

lol. Cybertrucks are looking like my sink.

They should invest heavily in Barkeepers Friend. Works pretty well on the sink.

I use it to get around website article limits when they try to force me to sign up.

Audible replaced a version of a book my boyfriend bought with a completely different version of the same book. I mean a different narrator and everything. He had purchased the book a few years earlier but he didn’t manage to get a refund from them.

I came to the conclusion that Netflix doesn’t understand marketing. The hit shows they had seem to be lucky finds and they think they can reproduce that by dumping money into a show and telling no one about it. Like fanboys will just watch whatever Daddy Netflix gives them.

Cowboy Bebop is a perfect example. They market it to die hard anime fans and no one else. Those fans hate it and it gets cancelled. The show wasn’t that bad and people like my dad would have loved it, had he ever heard about it.

About a year ago, I adopted a 2nd dog. For the most part they get along pretty well. They like to play together and for the most part they play well together.

After a few months, they would cuddle up together, but I noticed my first dog started sleeping in a really tight ball. To the point his head is almost facing behind him.

I googled it. It seems that position is defensive. He never slept like that before. I can tell he does it now when he is upset about something.

He doesn’t seem to like to sleep near the 2nd dog. He will go into a room and sleep alone. Of course, the 2nd dog wants to sleep with him so he follows and and curls up next to him. He doesn’t get mad when this happens but I can tell he doesn’t like it.

They still play together pretty well. He even initiates play time with the 2nd dog. He does those big goofy hops when he is trying to get 2nd dog to play with him. It’s cute.

TLDR: how can I help my 1st dog feel more comfortable around my 2nd dog outside of play time?

While I’d prefer the do that also, I think the issue is that Google pays them so much, they couldn’t afford to exist without it.

I'm a Bethesda hoarder and a crazy person, so I made a spreadsheet. I know there's a mod if you're on PC, but I'm on Xbox so I needed some help. Thought you might be interested. I got the data from Starfield Wiki and just added simple functions for the ratios.

I work from home and I’m going to school so I spend a lot of time at my desk. I can’t work if it’s cluttered and these cables are driving me crazy.

I built a custom desk using IKEA countertop and file cabinets that runs the full length of my wall. One half is for computer and one half is for other projects that need space!

I love it except the cables are wild and have a mind of their own. I’ve been researching methods so I was wondering:

How do you manage cables?

PS! All your stations have been awesome so far. I’m jealous!

Do you code on an iPad? Why or why not? If you do, what code editor do you use?

I don’t have a laptop I usually code on my desktop, but I work from home so I get tired of sitting in the same place for so long. I’ve been doing it on my iPad and it seems to be doable!

I tried a few free apps for ipadOS. Some were okay, some were not. I’m willing to pay but I don’t want to spend money randomly on apps I don’t like.

CodeSpaces on GitHub seems to be the best option so far, but it’s a pay as you go structure and not a singular cost.

I liked the UI of Runestone, but many critical features are locked behind a paywall.

Replit seemed decent too but it seems very cloud focused and I already use GitHub.

Koder* seems like it has the most free access features but UI wasn’t intuitive and I couldn’t figure out how to type in a file if I switched pages and came back to my original file.

I hear Textastic is pretty good but side it’s paid with no trial period, I didn’t try it yet. I wanted to get some feedback before I started paying for anything.

Let me know what you use. Share your tips with Lemmy!

I need a KVM switch or some kind of USB hub that allows me to share a single keyboard and mouse between two computers. The problem is, one of those computers is for work and I have very limited access to the system settings, and I can't install software. The problem is that it causes the keyboard to constantly disconnect and reconnect every few seconds.

I don't have access to the power settings in device manager. Is there something else I can do?

This Insignia USB HUB is what I have now. It works fine on my home computer with no adjustments, but it makes the keyboard disconnect on my laptop. All other USB inputs work fine.

Any suggestions are appreciated! I'm willing to buy a new KVM switch, if needed.

Thanks in advance!
