Caboose12000@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Cops of lemmy, what's it like marijuana being not a big deal then all the sudden a really big deal then back to being like probably not a big deal to it probably becoming a really big deal again?23·2 months agomy sister dated a cop from a cop family a couple years ago. she said even long after weed had long been legalized in our state he still had a lot of harmful assumptions he’d make about someone if they smoked weed, along the lines of them just stright up being bad and immoral people, comparing them to more serious and/or violent criminals and vaugly dehumanizing them along with everyone else he saw as a law-breaker.
ultimately as far as I heard he didnt let these judgments significantly impact his work though, never heard a word of him doing anything more corrupt than driving a bit wrecklessly when bored on patrol. I mean I’m sure they did have an impact, but I mean to say he didnt do anything cartoonishly evil about it as long as he and my sister stayed dating.

Caboose12000@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If you had to teach a subject in school, what would it be and why?4·3 months agointro to programming! ive been told I’m pretty good at breaking things down in a way a beginner would understand and programming is something that can be so intimidating to outsiders, I’d want to help lower the bar to entry and enable people to become passionate in programming when they otherwise wouldn’t
Caboose12000@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•It's my 54th BD, left a $83K IT job last summer, interviewing at Lowe's tomorrow. Is it weird I'm looking forward to it?101·3 months agonot crazy, I’m 26 and have been daydreaming about quitting my “cushy” wfh tech job and going back to being a grocery store cashier for at least 2 years now. wfh is so isolating for me, and my adhd time management shortcomings spike my anxiety. I’m too tired to be interested in personal code projects, server hosting, or linux in my off time, and my office now has a background sense of dread rather than the safe gaming space it used to be.
I just want to show up, at the same time every day, be friendly to people and help them with small tasks, and then leave work at work after at the end of the day. a consistent schedule, friends, and not having tech forced on me 24/7 would do wonders for my mental health, not to mention boons to physical health needing to move around every day. I just can’t afford to go back to minimum wage right now

Caboose12000@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•When joining a virtual meeting, how close to the meeting time do you join?1·3 months agoI like joining 5+ mins early so I can just sit in silence and work while waiting for the meeting to start rather than stressing about needing to lock at the clock (j have adhd and tend to hyperfocus). plus I dont mind a little small talk, but even so no one else on my team seems to want to smalltalk so even if someone else joins early it’s pretty quiet

check out magnetic charging cables. you could but the microusb dongle in your headphones and then never think about it again, just connect the magnetic cable to the dongle whenever you need a charge. I do that with my gaming headset and it works great for me
Caboose12000@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are there any words that you pronounce in a way that seems weird to most people?8·4 months agosometimes I accidentally pronounce “C’est la Vie” as “sest lah vy” even though I know its “say la vee” just because I read it first and it lives in my head as that first wrong pronunciation. confuses the hell out of people and I have to explain my foolery

Caboose12000@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•It has been two years since the release of ChatGPT. How has it impacted your work or personal life? What changes have you experienced, and do you see it as a positive or negative influence17·5 months agoI got into linux right around when it was first happening, and I dont think I would’ve made it through my own noob phase if i didnt have a friendly robot to explain to me all the stupid mistakes I was making while re-training my brain to think in linux.
probably a very friendly expert or mentor or even just a regular established linux user could’ve done a better job, the ai had me do weird things semi-often. but i didnt have anyone in my life that liked linux, let alone had time to be my personal mentor in it, so the ai was a decent solution for me
