54·9 days agoBut it does take money away in other ways. I use GIMP for work which could easily pay for Adobe if I asked them. We just don’t need to since we aren’t doing any high-demand tasks.
Easy, spite.
If you enjoy your current job, then you could go for the higher education that’s the extension of that. (Even if it’s like chef or bartender there are qualifications and education you can attain that get you paid more).
If you make your own schedule and it’s not a “work 60 hours a week” kind of make your own schedule then you have lucked out. There is no price you can put on free time and freedom.
Sorry I should have clarified that the type of ads this meme is talking about (i.e banner ads and spot ads) don’t work, and yet we have more than ever before. We know this because it’s demonstrable that you need more capital than ever and more ad time than ever to see equivalent returns.
If a company really wants to sell their product they do tie-in deals with personalities or commission news stories to be laundered for them.
It’s because ads don’t work on people anymore. You need hundreds to thousands of views on an ad to get a handful of click-throughs. Companies don’t know what to do anymore because advertising is really the only concept that makes sense to them.
Also ads are a form of soft power. Companies spend millions/billions of dollars on YouTube/twitch etc. to threaten creators with “demonetization” if they step too far out of line when they criticize the wrong people.
The whole point of AI hate anyway is that there is physically no world in which this happens. Any LLM we have now, no matter how much power we give it, is incapable of abstract thought or especially self-interest. It’s just a larger and larger chatbot that would not be able to adapt to all of the systems it would have to infiltrate, let alone have the impetus to do so.
The great thing about this job is that you can cash 300k without doing anything because as soon as you hear the code word you just have to ignore it for 10 seconds and the world ends anyway.
I’ve seen this before and the most lefty nonsense to me is the amount of olive oil you’re putting on a “quick lunch” like, I hate to break it to you but you’re going to be spending your evening in the bathroom.
“but some day I might! And then people like me better watch their step!”
Hate my job? No. I actually love my job. It’s an amazing first step in my career and I plan on being here for many years. It’s engaging, it’s creative, it’s building my skills, it’s a casual environment, and I’m friends with my co-workers and my boss.
But I’m only at my job because I need to make money. I have lots and lots and lots of stuff to do with my free time. I want to travel, and play video games at the most base level, but I also have my own creative hobbies which, while I love my job, I would rather dedicate my days to. I only have so much free time in my life.
So the only reason I have this job that I love is because I need money to live. Sorry job, I’m just not that into you.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If you automated 95% of your job, but still had to report to an office/cubicle, what would you do with your (40hrs)time?
6·1 month agoI think the thing that would be the most productive would be to start a project you’ve been waiting to work on or something that might make you money. Either studying something you’ve always wanted to do or programming/writing something you’ve always wanted to write.
With 40hrs of paid time you could write whatever you’d like and it doesn’t really matter if it pays off or not so you’re not pressured to compromise on it. But if it does pay off then you’re that much closer to an early retirement or the ability to take more control of your time by working on the thing you want to do.
If you’re happy where you are then yeah. Read a book, play some games etc.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Hey look, a giant sign telling you to find a different job
15·1 month agoThat’s probably why they’re desperate for no call offs. In this day a million dollar company still feels like it’s constantly on the edge of collapse. No pity for jenny though, if you can’t manage around your workforce taking time off during the holidays that’s bad management.

I always thought this was a joke but I knew a girl who dated a guy who wouldn’t fully clean his ass in the shower because he thought getting his finger anywhere near his butthole was gay.
I have a hard time even comprehending the thought process.

5·2 months agoSome people like that trump is a freak, they excuse the most heinous shit for the people that think he’s a freak, but he’s a necessary evil to take down the deep state or necessary to fulfil biblical prophecy, who in turn provide excuses for those who think he’s kind of bad but will help the economy who in turn provide excuses for the “centrists” who didn’t vote for him but think the accusations are blown out of proportion.

Technology@lemmy.world•Is Fast Charging Killing the Battery? A 2-Year Test on 40 PhonesEnglish
73·2 months agoSorry, but it’s more like a crab apple.
It looks like an apple, it’s presented like an apple, it’s advertised like an apple because that is what makes the YouTuber money. But scientific methods and standards exist for a reason. It’s very easy to produce bad data and especially easy to extract bad conclusions from data if you have an incentive to do so (such as a fan base who might engage with the video less if the conclusions were against their expectations)
There’s a chance that this guy’s conclusions reflect what a proper study might have found, but it’s just too hard to tell if it’s a crab apple or not it’s essentially probably a little better than chance.







Nah the sig has way more feats if you read the lore. Honestly I think the power scaling is all over the place. Magnums are on fraud watch tbh haven’t done shit for feats in years.
