Loops could really use a way to embed STL files

I'm trying out Lemmy Schedule, how has the frequency been with that?

It's from FOSS Backstage 2024

As canon as it gets. His right arm is about 63 pixels from shirt sleeve to fingertip, and his left arm is about 50 pixels. The angle depicted, if anything, would exaggerate the difference

Yeah, it's just intentional !foodcrimes@midwest.social material as a joke, from what I can tell

Copying TikTok et al, I suppose. Loops is still in beta and under heavy development, but the dev has said it'll be open sourced. When it is, I imagine someone will quickly open an issue/PR for that.

I think it's about lip placement. You put your lips on a whistle to form a seal, but with a flute you're just blowing across the opening

I think we'd get used to it

I can't tell if this is real or made up

You're in luck, Tesseract added support for embedding loops:

Charlie Brown is about 4 in these early comics, so it's understandable he wouldn't be able to read a clock

The euphemism treadmill in action

I was poking at the HTML to see how much work would be involved so that I could respond to this comment, but then @ptz@dubvee.org just went ahead and implemented support in Tesseract, which is a way better option:

What don't you like about it?

Interesting, I've heard it's generally the opposite, where pay and hours are terrible if you're employed directly by a hospital. Traveling nurses are supposed to get much better pay and hours. Don't have direct experience with that though. Maybe it's because you've specialized as a nurse anesthetist?

I like my job. I WFH, and will never go back to full time office. I know an Amazon employee that's pissed because they're forcing everyone to RTO and being shitty about it. The shittiness is the point though, because they're trying to drive wages down by getting people to voluntarily leave. I've found that toxic workplaces aren't worth the paycheck, and any workplace forcing RTO without an actually good reason is toxic.

I will say that there's some chaos and mess in pretty much every job. If anyone yells at you (or anyone) about it instead of handling it like an adult though, GTFO. I've worked for that sort of person and it's never worth it.

Thanks for the feedback! Would it help if I used something like schedule.lemmings.world to spread the posts out over the day?

I did a review of someone's code submission once where they pretty much wrote a bespoke JQuery implementation to handle the super-complex task of incrementing a number in a div when a button is pressed. I don't think they got the job. I felt a little bad for them, but a valid part of those coding interviews is "Will this person go off and do something crazy like write their own half-baked React instead of just using React?". Showing that you know how to write code as simply as possible is a big plus.

Nice!
