  • Tea App A Second Tea Breach Reveals Users’ DMs About Abortions and Cheating

    Jump

  • On the one hand, sucks that a leak like this even happens anymore, no one deserves to be doxxed like that. On the other hand, I struggle to feel bad for the users of the doxxing app getting doxxed in return...

  • Who here is incognito?

    Jump

  • If so it's pretty mild. I don't do it all the time and I am able to resist doing it even when I have the urge to.

  • Unpaid lunch

    Jump

  • I also work in IT, but tbf that sounds a lot more exciting than the projects I work on.

  • Who here is incognito?

  • For me it's that I always want to walk on an even number of tiles, planks, or other pieces of flooring with clear and repeating edges.

  • Unpaid lunch

  • I have a hard time seeing that happening at my workplace, but I see how it can be significant for jobs like medical staff, security, etc.

  • This is how it is at my current job in Denmark. Never experienced it before working in Denmark.

  • Not a woman but- No that actually makes a lot of sense :)

  • Public transit in Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦 vs Chengdu, China 🇨🇳

    Jump

  • I'm from neither the US nor Canada, and in my case it certainly isn't a matter of projection. I'm sure things have been getting a lot better for many people in China. However, it is still the case that China has a lot of human rights issues which are simply not as widespread in a lot of Western countries, the US included. And due to nation wide systems, such as hukou, it is very difficult for the population in poorer, rural areas to work legally in more affluent areas where the pay is higher. My understanding is that this has led to large scale "illegal migration" within the country's borders, where workers are paid far less (sometimes not getting paid at all), work under poor conditions, and suffer abuses at the hands of their employers with little to no legal recourse due to their illegal status. China is a very inequitable society, and a lot of the misery that its less rich and powerful citizens have to deal with goes unnoticed by the rest of the world (and indeed the rest of its population), because we see stuff like this and are impressed by China's progress. And no doubt that there's actually been progress in a lot of areas, but the somewhat tired "at what cost?" question is still as pertinent as ever.

    None of this is a defense of the US or Canada. Just saying that for the average person, China is probably a worse place to live and to work in.

  • North Korea and South Korea isn't working. Let's try West Korea and East Korea instead.

    Jump

  • Tbf South Korea has plenty of economic, demographic, and social problems as well. Still miles better than North, but saying that only the North doesn't work is not really accurate.

  • how many people came to this platform due to leaving / being banned from Reddit?

    Jump

  • Came here during the API changes. Still salty about it.

    I gotta say though, that as much as I wish Lemmy was a viable alternative in every way, Reddit is unfortunately still the place to be for a lot of useful info and discussion. Granted, there's also a lot of crap. But Lemmy is just not big enough to replace Reddit in every way.

  • Public transit in Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦 vs Chengdu, China 🇨🇳

    Jump

  • What's up with all the China hype on Lemmy? These projects are impressive, no doubt, but their cost in terms of human rights violations are pretty high. I'm speaking generally, I don't have the specifics with regards to this subway system. Either way it's not really comparable to a project like this in a country like Canada imo.

  • Meals

    Jump

  • Exactly. In an ideal world this type of thing would be enough, but that's not the world we live in, and charity like this is just not going to cut it. That's not to say that it isn't a kind gesture, though.

  • It's a cruel system

    Jump

  • By that reasoning knowing how to screen share is crucial knowledge for all high-paid jobs

  • Or, you know, if you read the prompt before sending, look at the question after you've selected it, or just read your own work once. This method will only work if students are being really stupid about cheating.

  • MSc Mansplaining

    Jump

  • Tbh my only gripe with this post is the assumption that because a man is explaining something to a group of women, it's automatically mansplaining. Although I guess it's a joke so whatever.

  • Now that's just rude

  • The second one made me dislike them, but the fifth one was the straw that broke the camel's back.

  • why isn't it ok? why????

    Jump

  • Transferring files that way actually seems really useful, I did not think of that

  • What if?

    Jump

  • I don't think etiher is implied here, but sure, I suppose it can be a conversation starter.

  • What if?

  • Thanks, that's one of my main goals in life.
