Aquaponics is pretty cool.

And this is why you VPN.

You must be the last person on Lemmy still looking at these sites the way they’re displayed by default. Firefox, adblock, no script, pi hole, etc makes all that go away pretty painlessly.

I feel your pain, and dealt with similar feelings when I worked a job that I didn’t find satisfying or challenging.

There are plenty of ways to turn the downtime at a boring job into an opportunity to learn something useful or find time for self improvement. Something like jotting down notes about a project you want to start or topic you want to learn more about can get you away from the phone, even if it’s only for a few moments.

I found it easy to break the doom scrolling habit by replacing it with reading books instead of garbage on the internet. I downloaded an e-reader app for my phone at first and used a free library membership to find some authors and topics to get me started. In my case I eventually got annoyed by the notifications and phone nonsense while I was trying to read and switched to a dedicated e-reader. YMMV.

For a lot of people boredom and lack of satisfaction in the job will kick in shortly after the new excitement wears off.

Jobs that have lots of idle time often lead to annoyance and frustration that you have to continue to be there without much to do. Everyone is different though, some people probably enjoy it.

Seems to be working great, thank you!

I was interested in this until I saw the pricing. Did spez make this software?

Do you happen to remember the name?

My understanding is that the moderator workaround is still working for unfettered access to the API. I was hoping there was something I could just set to do the purging for me on an idle computer.

I’ve been meaning to ask this elsewhere but I guess I can piggyback off this post-

What tool(s) are available for deleting/removing your post history? I’ve seen mention that some didn’t delete their posts but had a bot or something replace the text in them with some text about leaving for Lemmy, and I’d like to do something like that myself.

WHO LEFT THIS ON HEAD GAMES!?!?

All I want is a real life iteration of J.A.R.V.I.S. and several billion dollars so I can blurt out cool ideas and have them rendered and built in a couple hours.

I’ll be good I promise.

Is that like back shots or what?

My dyslexic ass

Next time just use your eyes, it’s faster.

Always has been.

Using AI in this way is what finally pushed me to learn databases instead of trying to make excel do tricks it’s not optimal for anyways.

I tried a bunch of iterations of various AI resources and even stuff like the Google Sheets integration and most of them just annoyed me into finding better ways to search for what I was trying to do. Eventually I had to stop ignoring the real problem and pivot to software better optimized for the work I was trying to do with it.

Well done

Even on mobile it’s a couple clicks away from being on or off. Saves me more time than it costs when something doesn’t work the way I want.
