It feels pretty silly to protect UI design to that extent. It's as if I started designing a website for a client, someone passing by took a screenshot and showed someone my design. Then I sue that person for... not keeping design secrets? I dont understand how apple can prove any damages besides maybe being owed the ad money on that video. And even that is a stretch, and not worth the lawyers' time in my opinion.

I think it's good that you gave it a name, it's the first step towards acknowledging that it's not rational thought and can be ignored safely. There's definitely nothing wrong with you in the sense that you're not crazy, but it sounds like you might have a lot of trauma and CBT should help. But it's a long process and sometimes its two steps forward, one step back. Just stick with it and see if it improves.

I'm not at all a professional and you don't have to listen to my advice, but my wife has had a similar issue and she called hers a name too. It helped her a lot over the years to realize how she could turn that voice down. What really helped her though was to cut off her family, as they were the ones that gave her this voice after all. She had a lot of trauma related to family.

Hope that helps, or at least makes you feel better about it. This voice is not shameful. You're just human and coping with life.

I always liked Singh as a person, but I feel like NDP needs some change. They are a party focused on throwing shade on other parties. They need their own identity.

While I agree that change is necessary, I feel like NDP as a whole needs to change strategy. It's like every single promise they make is about throwing shade on another party, or saying they will fix something liberals did, but rarely any actual constructive or original ideas. They need to come up with their own identity instead of basing it on the opposite of another.

I really love the hand drawn style and the characters, but you should really try to make the text more readable. It is very hard to read unless you zoom up close with the HD on (am on mobile). Keep it up though would love to see more of this

I've heard smaller, older drives are actually more reliable in the long run. USB 2.0 especially because of the lower speed causes less heat

I had an issue recently where my usb drive was "disconnecting" which triggered unraid to give read errors and then panicking. I had checked though and it wasn't being regularly read or written to but still caused my whole server to crash. Changing usb drive has since fixed it, for now 😄

I use Unraid and I'm loving it. Super stable, easy to manage, set up dockers, let's me pool my hard drives and set up parity. Highly recommend. Only thing that I've had a hard time with is finding a stable flash drive - you'd be surprised how many start to fail when used 24/7

The public health system here in Canada is very broken and the politicians have been pushing to move towards a more privatized system like the US. It's only a question of time before we get the same problems. Here in quebec my wife has had to get a private doctor because she simply couldn't see a doctor in the public system anymore.

D'un côté tu as un point, les employés ne sont surement pas payés équitablement dans plusieurs cas.

Par contre, je vois le point de l'article plutôt du côté de l'opinion publique d'une job de construction. C'est vrai que souvent, on ne considère pas assez la construction comme un emploi respectable. Les enfants surtout de notre génération se font dire que soit tu vas a l'université et trouve une "vraie" job ou bien tu prends la route facile et tu vas en construction.

Ce que je trouve dommage cest que l'article ne mentionne pas un point que je trouve important. Souvent les métiers comme maçon, contracteur, charpentier, etc. sont remplis de gens malhonnêtes qui n'ont pas de respect pour leur propre travail. Je parle d'expérience, c'est très difficile de trouver quelqu'un qui ne coupe pas les coins ronds et te surcharge pour un travail mal fait.

Cela dit, peut-être que le second est le résultat et le premier la cause. Mais c'est comme un cercle vicieux. Dans tous les cas, je pense que ce genre de travail est nécessaire et qu'un bon maçon, briqueleur, ou autre qui fait un travail de qualité est très apprécié de tout le monde.

Is that even possible? How do you know who downvotes you?

 

Seriously great app for Lemmy from day one. I was an avid user of boost for Reddit and now on Lemmy was using other platforms and customizing them to resemble boost but you blew them out of the water at launch.

One feature I would really appreciate to improve my experience further would be the ability to double-tap a comment to upvote it, a bit like we can do in SMS apps or social media. My reasoning is I currently use tap to expand/collapse and I can only upvote by long tapping then tapping the upvote button. This makes it a significant effort to upvote comments and in consequence I don't upvote often.

Thanks for your consideration
