I feel like ads in lemmy would be a hard to implement thing, it would need to be done on the instance level... and people would just jump ship to another instance that didn't have ads. it's possible that it could post ads as posts that get federated but it sounds like an amazing way to potentially get your instance defederated in concern that it's going to devolve to constant spam.

the fact that google is charging employees more than motels on the side of the road is surprising, 99 a night is still about 3k a month. granted i know its for temporary until the employee can relocate but, not much of an incentive.

this brought me back to my MW2(classic) days, having to speed change classes before I respawned

with WFH it's generally harder to analyze what areas the worker is struggling, and it also lacks the one on one with the worker. You can still technically do a video call or screen-share but, it's harder to monitor the worker to verify that said mentorship is taking effect, without compromising the privacy of the worker and the system at hand. It's possible to do but, you lose many tools such as constant monitoring of multiple under-performers at once that make it harder to actually monitor and mentor. This is without including that remote work is much harder to actually monitor work activity vs work productivity until it is too late(end of day, missed deadline, etc).

being devils advocate here, they probably are blinded by the reports of workers who are inefficient at remote work. I want remote work as much as the next guy, I am deeply passionate for it; but I can see why management teams would want inhouse. Easier to monitor and ~~punish~~ mentor the under-performers if you are physically present in the building. The higher ups don't generally care about stats, they only care about what issues are being brought to their plate/causing more work for them... and the underperforming workers are a pretty big additional work for them.

I tried jerboa, I didn't like it. Seems to basic and didn't really function for me(was likely due to actual server issues rather than app issues though). I'm now on connect and pretty content though.

it could be, I can't recall the last time I used the site without some sort of third party helper. Main reason I left the platform lol, just isn't enjoyable to me without them

my door doesn't close fully, so I close it all but the crack that is forced. I do this because people in the house are up and down constantly, and my sleep schedule would bd interrupted if I left it open.

ok, let me clarify. Obscenity is not protected under the first amendment. Accidental gore/maiming is maybe allowed, at most it's a grey area until its concidered obscene, however once it hits the obscenity level the supreme court has declared that it is a violation of federal law and therefore illegal. It's a huge reason that many sites actively take the content down and have it against TOS. Most enforcement/regulation with the standing is generally in relation to minors, but it isn't exclusive to minors.

I'm concerned at the security implications of this. I haven't read into it but, with the world moving towards facial recognition/face locks. I'm not sure how wise it is to allow people to do a detailed outline of your eye and face.
