    Yeah I have been shut down so often it has made me apathetic towards my job, as usually within few months we have a problem because we didn't do what I told to do.

    Even without intrinsic motivation, I think in certain tasks it's unethical to be careless.

    I used to work in kitchens. Hated it. But still be extra careful with allergies and special diets and hygiene, because not doing so might affect people negatively, people who don't have anything to do with why I hate my job.

    It can be same in more abstract ways in somewhere like IT or audio, like taking care of cyber security.

    But when that doesn't apply, slack off as hard as I can.

    Equally related to work, I'm someone who has been quiet quitting for a while, and generally have rather "Graeberistic" view about work.

    But I simultaneously want to be very competent at what I do, and get easily annoyed by incompetence. I slack of as much as I can if my employer treats me badly, but when I actually do something I want to do it well.

    My line of work is IT / Audio, but in a job which I hopefully quit really soon for new one.

    This, and if you eat vegan, it will also limit the damage done to bugs as a result of smaller land use. I'm vegan with no exceptions, but I don't really give a fuck about being vegan in some weird absolute way like "can I sit on leather chair at my friends". Instead of that, veganism is just an attempt to reduce suffering, with full understanding that it is never going to remove it, and that there are other ways to to reduce suffering in the world without being vegan, which I also try to implement in my life.

    "one of the most significant breakthroughs in audio engineering in nearly 100 years”. It would be one of the most significant breakthroughs in audio industry if Sonos and other WiFi speaker brands would go bankrupt and their workforce would move on to develop something, anything more useful than wifi speaker with proprietary app.

    If I need something, I do my own investigation and buy whatever suits my needs. I don't need anyone to manufacture needs for me, not that it would work any way.

    That, and I'm against any and all information poison and commercials are exactly that.

    It is a independent publication for tech critical journalism, founded by ex motherboard journalists. Only some of their stuff is paywalled, some only requires free account. Agree on their site but their journalism is usually pretty good.

    I'm currently chancing jobs due to fact that while we are getting rid of the legacy tech debt, we are rushing with the new stuff in a such stupid way that we are instantly building new tech debt. Change, hooray!

    My ass probably could appreciate real performance if I was into audiobooks overall, I just like books as books. I'm not exactly happy about all content being replaced with AI slop. However I don't think spotify cares, if something is cheaper they will go for it, just like other corpos.

    Oh well I think they will be losing as well, people don't even really need the audio book providers anymore, since they could just do AI ebooks themselves if they just have the text ebook.

    Audio books are no longer expensive to produce. I bet my ass most except for the biggest titles will be AI generated in very short time. Whether people like it or not.

    Started college at 2020 January. Information technology. I did well during the time I was there but whole covid thing just made me hate my school and like I needed change.

    We were going back and forth remote and in person classes, both of which were really bad in terms of quality of the teaching and I felt like if I am mostly learning from external sources and teaching sucks.

    I refused to attend in person classes due to covid risks despite it being kind of mandated so I managed to negotiate that I just study on my own and take the exams. And my grades didn't even get worse.

    I'm not the type of person to keep doing something I feel like is useless for a paper that might give me slight advantage for getting a job. Education itself is free in my country but I just hated getting more and more student debt to cover other my living costs.

    I decided "fuck this I'm just gonna get a IT job and teach myself and that's what I did. I wouldn't say that I'm at my dream job now but I feel confident I am able to progress on this career just fine despite dropping out.

  • Anyone got suggestions for alternatives to Teamviewer, business use? Needs to have: -unattended access -around 2000 hosts -4 or 5 people using it for support -cheaper than teamviewer -file sharing -as lightweight as possible -works on other systems than windows (not obligatory) -decent UI any personal experiences, even if they differ from these specs are welcome 🙂 Tried to look for alternatives, but so far nothing feels right for my use case.
