    8 hours of sleep ! Wow I'd love that ! If I can get 6 hours it's a great night. Haven't been able to sleep 8 hours in years except for the rare weekends where I don't get woken up by the neighbors dogs or to work my second job.

    My friends high end sony system with square speakers (yeah I'm old) kept poping the speaker coils out of their sockets at 70% power. His 600$ sony dvd player would not play burned DVDs. My Phillips amp would power my realistic home made speakers up to 100% and they could still take a lot more (200W RMS amp and 275W designed speakers) and my weird named 65$ DVD would even play DIVX movies on burned DVDs. Fuck Sony.

    J'ai même pas vérifié ses chiffres. Pour moi en lisant les premières ligne de sa complainte je me suis dit qu'il veux avoir plus de main d'oeuvre à bas prix et faire plus de contact puisque qu'il en vois passer sans pouvoir TOUT les prendre. Encore un patron avare qui as aucune idée des réalités de la vie pour un employé physique à bas salaire. Il encourage des jeunes à quitter les études pour finir le dos casser à 46 Ans.

    Étant travailleur de la construction je suis malheureusement témoin de trop de patrons qui coupe les coons rond et mette la pression sur leurs employés, ce qui donne des employés blessé et qui auront une vie misérable à partir de moin de 50 ans. Passer sa retraite pris dans une chaise roulante ou aublit à cause d'un dos détruit ou un accident de travail évitable.

    Les jeunes sont trop souvent sous payer et lancer sans encadrement dans des travaux dangereux.

    Je suis d'accord que c'est très possible de faire le travail de façon sécuritaire et efficace mais ça sa coûte trop cher pour les patrons.

    Même quand la loi est claire il y as dès patrons qui poussent leurs employés à faire des choses illégale ou travailler avec des équipements hors normes. Et plus récemment, les pièces d'entretien d'équipements de basses qualité acheter sur des sites comme Amazon et AliExpress, pièce qui ne suivent pas les normes Canadienne comme des fusible de 10A qui saute à 40A donc danher de feux etc...

  • Aujourd'hui j'ai tombé sur cet article... [article](https://www.journaldequebec.com/2024/08/27/un-entrepreneur-lance-un-cri-du-cur--il-faut-arreter-de-decourager-les-jeunes-daller-dans-la-construction) Mon interprétation... Je paye pas mes employés convenablement je n'arrive donc pas à avoir asser de main d'oeuvre et je vois les contrats me passer dans la face. Je vais donc dire aux jeunes de venir se faire exploiter et détruire leurs corps avec du travail difficile et dangereux pour la santé en leurs disant que c'est aussi valable que de rester à l'école et devenir avocat ! C'est tu moi où je suis devenu trop négatif ?

    I see a huge difference in picture quality especially at night in my latest phone. And I now kind of like the bump on my pixel 8, I used to use my pinky to prevent the phone from slipping down and it got to a point where it hurts due to the phone weight. But with the pixel 8 I often use the bump with all my fingers holding the weight preventing my pinky from being torn away.

    Age restriction on cigarettes and alcohol is not for kids that are not parented but to prevent companies abusing kids to make more profit wich is why I say selling of internet connected devices and internet connection should be done to adults only. But don't force me to give companies all my personal data.

    That is a whole other problem, kids need to have a tutor, mabe instead of putting money on business that will leak our data just to put fake barriers on a site we should put that money into helping the kids that are left to their own devices.

    Just dont give internet connected devices to kids and your problems are solved. I would agree with company being forced to verify the age of a person before signing a internet contract. Don't give open access to internet to kids it's just like sending them anywhere in the world alone.

    Your argument does not make sense. I defend my kid from school shooting by not living in the States. Don't give guns to deranged people and most of your problems with school shooting is solved.

    I do not have to give my ID when I walk around a school.

    Letting a kid roam on the internet is more like giving them blank plane tickets than sending them to school.

    Would you give your kids blank plane tickets for them to go anywhere in the world alone ?

    I guess not, then don't give them a internet connected device without surveillance. It's YOUR responsibility to keep YOUR kids safe not mine. I don't want to be forced to give MY ID online for YOUR kids to be loose on the internet as much as I don't want to see your kids roaming alone anywhere they feel like.

    I use Connect, and it shows comment count but when I open the post I get no comments waaaayyyy too often, if I open the post in a browser I get all the comments why ? It's really annoying and prevents good conversations. I even get replys I can't interact with I see their comment un my notifications but I cant open it or reply.

    I used Relay for reddit and would like a app that works similarly. Currently I use Connect for Lemmy, but there are a few things missing. A big one for me is a button to hide all post I have interacted with (clicked the picture, up/down voted, read comments etc.) Also it should change the text color if I clicked the link not just read the comments. I use list mode, in Relay there is a easy access switch that lets you change the picture side (onthe right or on the lwft) on the fly.
