It honestly blows my mind how many people on Lemmy are completely incapable of interpreting sarcasm. I know Poe's Law and all that, but this is pretty clearly a joke.

I, for one, welcome the formation of the New California Republic. Washington and northern Oregon can join too if they'd like.

Never heard that acronym. Is it torrent client, Radarr, Sonarr, and Homarr? I've been running that for a bit now, and it keeps pulling me ever closer to buying a small server rack.

I'd highly recommend trying Vietnamese coffee. I'm the same way in that any coffee will do, but it's become my latest vice. It's a great middle ground between espresso (which I find a bit too strong) and drip/pour over coffee (which I like, but I prefer something a bit stronger). It's made with slightly compressed grounds in a phin (Vietnamese coffee filter) and is basically just a slower pour over that you mix with a tablespoon of sweetened condensed milk.

It's a very interesting flavor and tends to be much easier on your stomach because of the lower volume of coffee.

They hit my mom's account with the wrong household bullshit when my little cousin who lives down the street tried watching a show. Thankfully I get it free with my phone plan and never use it, so I just gave her my account.

I'm stupidly close to buying an 18 TB HDD from Amazon, setting up Overseerr on my home server on top of the *arr/Plex stack I run, and giving everyone a login. I have gigabit so it's not like I can't support even Blu-ray playback. I figure if I set the torrent to delete after 2 weeks of not watching we'll never run out of space.

My guess would be someone who doesn't know React well made it. I don't know React well and I've made some atrocities. You forget to wrap one statement in useEffect and it's all over.

America Ferrera got an Oscar nomination for her performance in the movie...

In fairness the computing world has seen unfathomable efficiency gains that are being pushed further with the sudden adoption of arm. We are doing our damnedest to make computers faster and more efficient, and we're doing a really good job of it, but energy production hasn't seen nearly those gains in the same amount of time. With the sudden widespread adoption of AI, a very power hungry tool (because it's basically emulating a brain in a computer), it has caused a sudden spike in energy needed for computers that are already getting more efficient as fast as we can. Meanwhile energy production isn't keeping up at the same rate of innovation.

I average 7-8 hours, but it varies wildly. Sometimes I'll be at my computer for 10 hours straight getting tons of work done, and other times I'll not be getting much done and just be done for the day at noon.

Last Friday I discovered some bullshit in how the Outlook APIs handle online meetings. If you directly create an online meeting you can then make a GET request for the meeting id and password. However, if you create an event with the online meeting parameter set to true then whatever is backing the GET request no longer works. This all completely ignores that the credentials should be returned as a response to the initial request to create the meeting. Needless to say that was a leave at noon day.

I'm more of a fan of the Japanese Golden curry, but that Vermont curry was way better than I expected.

As an older Gen Z I concur. Even those of us who aren't completely fucked are extremely anti-corporate with little loyalty to any job. There's a guy named Jordan Howlett who I feel sums up the average Gen Z attitude towards all the bullshit in the world really well.

Don't get me wrong I still work hard and try to do well at my job, but the second I hit my time for the day I'm gone. Work is strictly transactional. No one expects their employer to give them money for time they didn't work, so I ain't about to give my employer time for money they didn't give me. They'll also fire my ass the second they need a stock bump, so I'll be damned if I'm gonna stick around if I find something better.

Not at my computer so I can't double check, but I believe you can replace the outer double quotes with single quotes. I'd also remove the spaces before and after the equal sign for the alias. I don't know about fish but I know bash doesn't like when you add spaces there.
