This field is so incredibly lousy w people like us that it makes me marvel at the ones w the kind of job security that I crave because it means that their hyper focus not only aligns w the company’s profit line but they’ve also managed to have a tenure that steered clear of enough clueless neurotypicals to keep them from getting fired or on the chopping block for a layoff.
I qualify as an aspie too and I would likely be in the same boat were it not for my software development skills.
did the same and it’s the first time i’ve used lemmy’s blocklist; i hope there aren’t more in the future
i’ve recently had to accept that my neurodivergence makes managers, supervisors, etc. uneasy about me despite my stellar track record and the sole reason why i was able to maintain continuous employment was because of my high demand skill set; which means that employment will become increasingly difficult as i continue to age.
i use cookie autodelete and the containers for the websites i that i know are harvesting/selling my data.
it works well for me so it makes me wonder how it’s tedious or buggy for you,
If you can afford it; get a lawyer in involved.
If you can’t: pray, if you’re religious
If you’re not: I hope you’re not American and I hope you’re lucky
I suspect that this is the story for most Linux users; windows failing at a critical need
windows doesn’t show linux partitions correctly.
did you have it setup to ask you which operating system you wanted to boot and do you still see it?
in 2002 when my windows me computer start looping on the blue screen of death, with all of my college papers/essays/tests/assignments trapped in it.
the recovery media refused to work because i had upgraded the computer several times and i couldn’t afford the $180 windows xp cd. so i bought a linux magazine for $5 that included a copy of mandrake linux installation media and used paper printouts from my college’s computer labs to help me rescue my work from the computer.
my favorite used to be a sauce named “amor” that was primarily centered around southern california and baja california.
it was a little bit like cholula, but w MUCH stronger vinegar punch to it and it makes my mouth water every time i think about it on top of chips or other snacks; sort of like frank’s hot sauce if it were more sour and more picante at the same time.
the brand still exists, but their recipe changed significantly about 20-ish years ago and i’ve been unable to find anything like it to call my favorite.
vim should make yaml editing easier and you’re familiarity with vi should help a lot.
are you using a graphical editor to edit the file?
will nano or vim work?
porn star; that is if i were hot. lol
xmodmap was meant to work with x11 so it shouldn’t be a surprise that it doesn’t work very well w wayland.
instead, you’ll want to use a combination of libinput and evdev along w gnome/kde tools or input-remapper/wlr-inputremapper if you’re not using either.
i used to be one of those maintainers. it was my job to build server and container images so i had to spend a lot of time with the company’s internal distro maintainers and it always blew me away how much work they had to do.
i learned to stay away from midtown or battery-park/statue-of-liberty or any other tourist traps between friday afternoon and monday morning as a result of this.
HEAVY emphasis on the words “labor of love” … should be getting paid for this and i know for a fact that people who do this professionally make around $200k a year for doing it becuase i worked with them for up until a couple weeks ago at old-silicon.
i’ve always been in awe of people who do this; it goes well beyond linux from scratch and they’ll never get rewarded for doing it… it’s purely a labor of love.

ai is a water and power intensive tool for the ruling class to further suppress people and labor movements to their benefit as well as help control who is permitted into the “in-group” for the future.
it’s actively accelerating climate change that will result in ending our civilization in the future and, like our captured political process, everyone sits aside and just lets it happen out of fear of being harmed themselves.
