Think of all the Russian jobs spreading misinformation on Tik Tok that will be lost!

Better question: Will the world rejoice in having a social media network without Americans?

Open your computer and reseat any cables and components that you can.

Maybe even do a memory test with something like MemTest86(?).

Random electric noise and disconnects could cause random corruption issues like this.

Let’s never eat anywhere near each other.

Oops, you didn’t even finish reading my first comment and just started replying. So your answer actually doesn’t apply.

You full well know we’re talking about the average guy in just your everyday average bathroom usage.

We’re not talking about edge cases.

There are some edge cases where you would never wash your hands - because you don’t have any, or wearing a pee bag (whatever they are called)…

There are some edge cases where you should just pee in your clothes - when you’re floating in the middle of the ocean all alone…

There are some edge cases where you always make someone else handle your business - when you’re in a coma…

There are some edge cases where you should hold your pee - someone has an example…

What other edge cases do you want to think up to prove absolutely nothing?

You don’t wash your hands after peeing?

There are sides dudes so manly that when they go to the bathroom they thoroughly wash their hands before doing their business, but not afterwards.

Now you know why the cold and the flu and now COVID will never go away.

It’s fine if you need to try a couple times. Or if you need to rock yourself to a new position and time it with Go.

Tell yourself “3 2 1 Go!” And do it.

I think the rest of the world calls them Freedum Dolts.

I paid for a keyboard, I’m going to use a keyboard!

Fuck Putin.

There is a smaller percentage of women on Lemmy. And seems like a higher percentage of sexists. So I block a lot more accounts here.

Does your current laptop have a dedicated graphics card?

Can you try a USB to HDMI adapter? I don’t recall how they work with a dedicated card. Haven’t used one since Intel i7 gen 2 days, so my reference points are no longer relevant.

I am not talking about jank yolo prayer work. I’m talking about people learning how to do something properly. Duct tape a car is not the repair I’m talking about.

You are complaining about there not being enough skilled workers today. I’m talking about people learning the skills over time.

Look at how many types of food and products are starting to promote cleaner ingredients and more sustainable materials as people are starting to learn more about their health and the environment. People can learn and thing can get better.

I’m not saying that today everyone should push a button and start self hosting. I’m saying it would be great if more people learn to self host and that there are benefits to people learning more.

People don’t just absorb knowledge. It will require education programs.

Did you know how to do everything before you started?

More self hosting would improve the “average” person baseline.

Education of people is always(?) better, I’d say.

It’s good to exercise the mind, just like exercising the body.

What if 25% of car drivers could handle their own car maintenance? The one downside people will scream at first is that fewer mechanics will be needed.

But that is too short sided.

More home mechanics will need to buy more tools, so that’s more store jobs and more manufacturing jobs and more shipping/trucking jobs.

And more people who understand mechanics mean a better workforce who can invent new/better products or processes. And can do more research into manufacturing science, which would improve society.

This would also lead to safer cars because they are better roadworthy, and car manufacturers would have a harder time using low quality parts.

So all of those changes would apply to technology when more people know how to use technology.
