What do you all think about Ted Lasso? in c/[email protected]
[–] IphtashuFitz 5 points 1 hour ago

My wife and I enjoyed it so thoroughly that when we were in London a few months ago we took a Ted Lasso tour of Richmond. It was so much fun to see all the spots that were locations in the show.

In another day or two Elon and his minions will likely be able to halt all money going yo USAID, including salaries to workers. So that will effectively abolish it.

Watch The World's Fastest-Charging EV Hit 80% In 9 Minutes: 'Freaking Wild' in c/[email protected]

Yup, exactly this. When people ask, I tell them it takes me less than 5 seconds to charge my EV. I plug it in as I get out at night and I have a full “tank” each morning.

My employer is switching from Microsoft to Google for office tools next month and they’ve been championing its availability to all of us. I’m not looking forward to it…

How do you open a hatch from the inside that was bolted shut from the outside?

  3. The states receive no federal aid.

In this day and age you need to be very careful abandoning anything in the cloud. My employer regularly contracts with HackerOne to test the security of our websites. On at least one occasion they demonstrated an exploit by creating an AWS S3 bucket with the same name as a bucket we stopped using years ago. We still had an old DNS record pointing to that old bucket if I recall correctly…

Return-to-office (RTO) mandates have caused companies to lose some of their best workers, a study tracking over 3 million workers at 54 "high-tech and financial" firms at the S&P 500 index has found. These companies also have greater challenges finding new talent, the report concluded.

The new SiriusXM app for Tesla sucks (self.tesla)
submitted 2 months ago by IphtashuFitz to c/tesla
2 comments fedilink
 

Tesla just released a SiriusXM streaming app for the Model 3, Y, and Cybertruck. I’m a longtime SiriusXmM subscriber, and actually have a free streaming account with them. Ever since I got my MY I’ve listened via their streaming app on my phone & Bluetooth.

Not only will my current streaming account not transfer to the Tesla app, but I also can’t activate an old existing account with it either. In fact I can’t even add the Tesla streaming account to my existing SiriusXM account. They want me to create a new account on SiriusXM with a different email address just for the Tesla app. The fact that I’d have to create and manage a second account is downright absurd. Whoever approved that asinine decision at SiriusXM should be fired…

I guess I’ll just keep streaming their stuff through my iPhone…

What's the funniest/strangest thing you have seen out your office/apartment window? (self.asklemmy)

This just popped into my head after a similar question came up with a coworker…

Back a few decades ago I worked in Kendall Square in Cambridge, MA. My office window looked out towards another building about 15 feet away, and for some reason our floors were about 8 feet higher than the other building. So we could look down into the offices across the way.

The person in the office I could see into had his desk set up so that his back was to the window and he faced his office door. This gave me and my coworkers a clear view of his computer screen over his shoulder. He played Microsoft solitaire constantly, except when somebody walked in. He would very quickly close it so he wouldn’t get caught.

My coworkers and I actually tried to figure out his phone number, but never did. We wanted to call him up and tell him he should have played the red 9 on the black 10…
