Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How to stop blonde hair turning darker?
2·1 year agoI think there’s some merit to this, I had blonde hair as a child and now when I go to the beach a lot during the summer is starts to lighten again.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•how to start to learn about programming and self host?
1·1 year agoIn my case Ruby was my next step. I tried to learn Python later on but it always felt like a step back. Unfortunately Python is much more popular though for some reason so YMMV.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the grimmest job you ever had?
31·1 year agoNot super grim, but I worked in a hot warehouse unpacking cheap clothing from China, repacking it and watching the owners turn around and sell it on Groupon for a huge profit. Sometimes their family members would stop by in brand new Mercedes, BMW and other high-end luxury cars.
The others and myself were all promised better jobs like product photographer, website designer, etc. I only lasted there one week.

5·1 year agoMine is
tillinstead of’tilto meanuntilandain “two times a year” instead ofper. I still say “two times a year” myself but when writing it looks so unprofessional and I always notice it in news publications.

44·1 year agoI don’t why but the fact this is on YouTube seems hypocritical but I can’t put my finger on it.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How would Linux look like when it hits 10% marketshare?
51·1 year agoI really hope not; I love Linux to death but Android is… not nice.

Technology@lemmy.world•Russian court fines Google $20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000English
2·1 year agoI don’t know, I still see a lot of people not knowing this. I’ve seen iPhone users get confused when I use Safari to go to a website rather than the Google app on their phone.
It’s really a shame because you just know that that Google app is just spyware.

10·1 year agoI think it’s a CSS issue. Word wrapping won’t break apart the amount because it’s considered one “word.”
There are ways to address it though.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What was your most recent dream?
1·1 year agoI dreamt that I was traveling in Germany and didn’t want to be called out as American, so the dream switched to Spanish (my second language). My brain did try Mandarin and Japanese but it was probably too resource intensive for a dream.
Having never been to Europe, “Germany” looked a lot more like Mexico than anything.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why other OS vendors haven't copied Android's Material You theming?
41·1 year agoI feel like this is claiming that Windows has better UI/UX which I always find hilarious.
Which 20 versions of UI are you talking about? Is it Ribbon, Metro, 9x, XP, or half of the non-native JS apps that Microsoft pushes on its own platform (especially funny to me considering they ditch their own UI API)?
Linux can be a very crummy UX too, but using Windows as some sort of standard for comparison is a joke.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•have you ever been given a warning or suspension for using profane language at work?
7·1 year agoWhile working in fast food working as a manager I had a store manager that would cuss you out, but one thing I loved about her is I would cuss back and explain myself to which she’d be like “oh, that makes sense.”

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•I can imagine the "will you be using the mobile app?" question to get cheaper food is going to devolve into the Mark of the Beast and someday no one will be able to buy anything without using the apps
16·1 year agoTheir app was so futuristic on the original iPhone, then it went to shit pretty quick. It looks/behaves like an unmaintained Ruby on Rails 3.1 app.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Programmers of Lemmy, what are your interviewing horror stories?
7·1 year agoI’m actually happy to say I haven’t necessarily had any bad programming related interviews. In fact, as someone with zero professional development experience but a healthy portfolio (side business for former employer, systems built for prior jobs not related to development) I’d say it was almost too easy to finally land a full time development job.
I’m so anti-Ubuntu but I would probably put that out there and roll with it. You can move on to something better once you figure it out anyway.

Technology@lemmy.world•The Club Penguin Experience got breached.English
3·1 year agoI don’t think I’d make that information public were I in their shoes. Wouldn’t that be a hint for anyone attempting to crack them?




This is a tough one. One way I sort of get around this is I buy the discs (if international) or rent them (domestic), but it’s probably so new and exclusive that it hasn’t been released on any rippable media.
