There’s always bad shit happening somewhere. I specified this timeframe as it signified an end to the looming threat of nuclear annihilation and before the start of the “war on terror” which signified a start of a ramping up of civil rights abuses in the west.

My view is biased towards the west, but everyone has their own frame of reference. I am entitled to my frame of reference, as are you, and you are free to post your own timeframe you believe is “good while it lasted”.

how about the million or so that died between 9/11 and 2011?

end of soviet union to 9/11

But don’t you DARE say on Lemmy that Linux isn’t ready for everyone to use…

If we’re talking about “everyone” as in “generic people , who spend either office job time on their computer, and about 1 hour of pleasure time doing non specific hobby stuff” due to adaptation of more wifi drivers etc (even though this is the point of the meme), since everyone’s doing all their shit on web interfaces anyway, yeah, it’s everyone ready.

My fucking father in law is on a chromebook , my wife has been on ubuntu mate for years. I’m running debian with minimal issues (stupid overheating).

Me using phones : wow, I can sleep at 1am, great.

Just ask Ian to start your computer when he goes on it

I wonder if he hates that this is the picture of him people feel most expression from, instead of one of the films he busted his ass to make

Lol, people can’t afford to have kids by 30.

I can guarantee you

1. People have kids whether they can afford them or not
2. Different levels of social integration lead to different support structures for child-rearing which leads to different life stages when people can/do have kids at different financial points.

help me. I am stuck working in SDET and my job makes me do a cert every 6 months that’s “no code” and I need to transition to writing code.

I’ve been SDET since 2013, in c# and java. I am so fucking sick of selenium and getting manual testing dumped on my lap. I led a test team for a fortune 500 company as a contractor for a project. I can also program in the useless salesforce stack (apex, LWC).

I am the sole breadwinner for my household. I have no fucking idea what to do.

Let’s say she wants to play with crayons when it’s time to eat. If she starts throwing a tantrum, I lie her down on the ground and don’t pay attention to her, except to say “we will hug and go get your fruit when you are calm”. When the tantrum is finished, I ask her “are you calm?” and if she says yes, we hug, I clean her up, and give her the fruit.

Until she calms down, I don’t pay attention to her, except to re-iterate that she will have more stiumulus once she is calm.

feeling good about my parenting skills, my kid’s tantrums are getting shorter and shorter. she screams, cries, kicks her legs, all on the floor. She only gets anything once she starts to be calm.

Sleep

no, just me, gabe newell

The guy she tells you not to worry about VS you.

I’m in the meme. In the shitty paragraph.
