We (Americans) use the word job for all those things, but actually getting paid for them is illegal. 😡

Or when I make a meme, but it’s not really pertinent to anything right now, so I leave it on my drive and just wait …
OpticalMooseto Stable Diffusion@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Civitai pausing all credit card paymentsEnglish2·8 days agoIf they cancel my $5/month plan, I’m out. I’m not spending any more than that.
OpticalMooseOPto 196@lemmy.blahaj.zone•Can't underulestand why they would leaveEnglish121·10 days agoNo, I just don’t enjoy watching people be toxic to other people, then ending their comments with “LMFAO” to top it off.
OpticalMooseOPto 196@lemmy.blahaj.zone•Can't underulestand why they would leaveEnglish202·10 days agoOMG yes. I left the Linux community a couple of months ago and my mental health improved almost immediately. I still use Linux; just left the community.
OpticalMooseto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Is there any community for Linux for noobs ?English10·24 days ago
I would just do the one big transaction. I’ve done it in the past (after selling a house, after getting disability lump sum payment, etc), never had an issue.
If you’ve got a reasonable explanation for where the money came from / where it went, you should be fine.
Glad to see he has a sense of humor about his movies being riffed. Rifftrax has done a handful of his movies and they’re all good.
OpticalMooseto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Do you use other federated software besides Lemmy (e.g. Mastodon/Pixelfed/etc.), if so which?English4·1 month agoJust Peertube. I’ve been orphaned from my Mastodon instance and I don’t think I’m going to sign up for another one.
OpticalMooseto LocalLLaMA@sh.itjust.works•[April 2025] Which model are you using?English8·1 month agoI mainly use Llama-3-8B abliterated for everyday questions, and DeepSeek-Coder-V2-Lite for programming/Linux stuff.
OpticalMooseto Hardware@lemmy.ml•Intel sells 51% of Altera FPGA business to Silver Lake for $4.46 billionEnglish3·1 month agoIt’s been pretty lackluster so far. Embedded(includes FPGA) is one of AMD’s lowest performing divisions, along with gaming. They’ve used Xilinx circuitry in Ryzen AI CPUs (XDNA), but those have been slow to catch on.
There’s a lot of copium in the AMD_Stock sub about how Lisa is playing the long game and Xilinx will pay off over time, but for now, it’s a drag on revenue, operating margins and return on equity.
We paid $40B+ for a company that brought in less than 1.5B last year. - AMD bagholder, avg price $140😐
As long as I can disable it or opt out of it, I don’t mind. I can’t speak for anyone else, but I don’t want videos recommended to me.
With Youtube, it’s not a big deal because I never log in there, I browse in private mode and set firefox to delete cookies. So when I go to Youtube, I just get a blank page with no recommendations.
But with Peertube, I need to login to get full functionality (federated search, etc). So I would need an option to turn off video recommendations or whatever.
As a computer guy, I can appreciate that working with data is cool - there’s a lot of neat stuff you can determine from it. As a user, it creeps me out. If I went my favorite restaurant, and the waitress recommended something based on the last 5 times I ate there, I would stop going to that restaurant.
OpticalMooseto Fedigrow@lemm.ee•Potential consolidation of strategy video games communitiesEnglish71·2 months agoI agree. I live in the US, and while I love my country, the current situation shows how bad it is to have 1 giant player who influences everyone else.
I’m in favor of consolidating things away from lemmy.world. No offense to that instance, but centralization is a threat to the fediverse.
OpticalMooseto From Europe or about Europe@sopuli.xyz•Basic Income Pilot Project / Study resultsEnglish3·2 months agoThose results are pretty promising. Sadly, my country would never go for it.
As a Rifftrax fan, I never knew about Soultaker. But after seeing San Franpsycho, I’m open to seeing any Joe Estevez movie riffed.
Thought you’d never ask. https://youtu.be/i-jdhorGtQI?t=17
I hate it too. I’m a bit of a slow talker, so it happened to me a lot.
Little Bobby Tables nods approvingly.
