  • What's the dumbest thing you've done to fix a tech issue?

    Jump

  • I was working on a e-commerce site for a large furniture manufacturer. They wanted to add a new attribute to a site that dealt with the fabrics they used. This would have been somewhere near 500 individual products with their own value for this attribute. We had to get this lined up on the product csv because somebody didn't think to do it in the erp. One of my managers was set to go in and use Excel to merge the lists, but I realized he would have to do this every month until the end of time. I wrote a quick script on the site to do this anytime the product csv needed to be updated. Write once, run forever.

  • HELP! How do I help educate my son about his body when I know nothing about boys?

    Jump

  • As a guy, best I can say is educate him on what women go through. Make sure he knew what is going on, so he doesn't look like an idiot with a woman. And so he isn't like me and learn about how periods actually work when he's almost thirty because he doesn't get a joke in a movie.

    What he needs to learn at this age isn't what he will do through, school will do that for him. He needs to know what others will go through. Religious thinking kept most of female anatomy out of the public schools I went to.

    Jellyfin is not just good... but better than Plex now?!

    Jump

  • I used Plex a while ago and didn't like how I had to look for my folders against the stuff they offered. And the upside of being able to get my stuff from a server install on another network had me wondering if they were looking at the movies I had to pirate. Once I installed jellyfin, I didn't have to worry. My only issue is if I want to use it on vacation, I have to do some vps hack-jiggery.

  • why do transphobes mention pedophiles/compare them to pedophiles when most trans people (as do most people) hate pedophiles?

    Jump

  • People were once told that if you wore the clothes of the opposite sex, you were a pervert. If you wanted to be the other sex, you were a sexual deviant. And people who have no experience outside of these views TOLD to them find out there are people out there like that, they are perverted deviants who must be doing other deviant things to. That's how people connect the two. False logic and correlation based on ignorance.

  • I feel my life is empty. Is there any way to stop this?

    Jump

  • Therapy.

  • What's the difference between a hostage and a prisoner?

    Jump

  • If I'm doing it, I have prisoners. If you do it, you have hostages.

  • Pot Roast

    Jump

  • I made my first one the other week and it was so good. I have a picture of it in my profile somewhere.

  • How come mosquitoes haven't evolved to not irritate it's victims during the biting process?

    Jump

  • It would need to be us that needs to evolve away from being sensitive to mosquito saliva. But our immune system went the other way to be allergic to it so we could defend against any infection or disease the bug might carry. Further proof of human stupidity in our evolution, that we trigger the defense mechanism after the the attack instead of preventing it.

  • I made a pot roast and it is AMAZING!

    Jump

  • Meatloaf is ground beef, and if your smart, pork sausage mixed with some extra seasoning and stuff, shoved in a loaf pan, and baked until fully cooked through. There are different things you can put on top as it's being baked, my personal preference is bbq sauce. My wife likes a can of cream of mushroom soup.

  • One of the best things ever is a proper meatloaf. Something even better is the next day using the leftovers in a sandwich.

  • I do not recommend this for a beginner, but intermediate skill should have no problem. And if you don't have time, save this for the weekend.

    But with the cat, I had a bottle of Cabernet Merlot on the shelf, but too close to the edge. Some point in the early morning the bottle found itself on the floor missing it's bottom. I figured one of my cats checked it out and knocked it off.

    I didn't use any special ingredients. Sear a chuck roast, cook the onions and garlic, deglaze with half a bottle of red and then reduce around half. Add a few cups of beef stock with fresh rosemary and thyme. I would have added fresh tarragon, but I only had dry. I also used some celery leaf. Meat back in the pot, oven preheat to 325f for two and a half hours. Add carrots and celery and continue for another hour. Once our, I pulled the meat to a serving dish and added a thickener to the sauce. Once thickened, pour back over the meat and enjoy.

  • It was super tender and delicious. I don't have much in the way of poetry for you, but damn it was tasty.

  • Anybody here whose main use of computers is NOT games?

    Jump

  • You know, I think I should ask my it guy.

    Jump

  • I have my primary daily driver laptop running Arch for web programming and writing, my side laptop running arch for monitoring services and writing, my server computer running (again) arch that I use for web dev and jellyfin streaming, and my work laptop running Ubuntu for server management. Not to mention my chromebook for paper weight, and my wife's laptop on Win10 she uses for design stuff. Nobody running games outside of my xBox One.

  • How can we build a new user-owned and -maintained internet?

    Jump

  • If you want more user owned internet, make federalized services not just more popular, but easier to spin up and run. Lemmy is great, but I should be able to spin up an instance on my home server without much trouble. Give me the ability to run and manage peer tube on my own.
