cccc,

TV and movies is a lot of word of mouth for me. If I hear about something that might be interesting I’ll look more into it.

I watch anime and a lot of the suggestions come from forums or online word of mouth.

Videos from YouTube and Nebula play into suggestions as well.

For music it’s pretty wild. Because I’m open to a lot of things I’ll take any source. I read a few blogs, visit a few forums, watch videos, work from ratings lists or even pick it up from being used in things. Discovered a new band this morning based on looking at upcoming gigs in my area for example.

cccc,

I’ve fallen victim to this a few times. Fox didn’t have the rights to the recent Ashes series so they just played replays of old series. Walking past it was easy to be deceived if the venue hadn’t switched over to 7.

It was only when I came back and the score didn’t make sense that I picked up on it.

cccc,

Nerv and Gehirn? Nice.

cccc,

Brave removes ads.

But also… it’s Brave which I’m learning is not the most ethical choice.

cccc,

I meant the big dumb utes are dangerous.

cccc,

They’re pretty dangerous if you’re walking or riding around near them. I’d like to see some sort of action from government to get rid of them.

I’m not fond of the birds either but they can stay.

cccc,

No need to apologise for those writing skills. You write extremely well.

cccc,

That’s a brilliant idea.

cccc,

I wanted a brown girl and ended up with a grey boy who feels like a perfect personality match for me. My goal is life is to be as chill as my cat.

cccc,

The homework aspect in theory helps with the University structure.

cccc,

Haikyu is great. It’s about volleyball and follows the same sort of theme of DBZ about constantly pushing to improve.

If you liked the environment and feel of Cowboy Bebop you might enjoy Samurai Champloo. Same director but replace jazz with hip hop and space with feudal Japan. I think it’s a masterpiece.

cccc,

Posts. Same as I call them on every platform. Fuck the branding exercise.

cccc,

Now you’ve given me something else to worry about…

CHROME (google) is planing to implement DRM (kinda) into their browser (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

looks like rendering adblockers extensions obsolete with manifest-v3 was not enough so now they try to implement DRM into the browser giving the ability to any website to refuse traffic to you if you don’t run a complaint browser ( cough…firefox )...

cccc,

Unless something changed isn’t every browser running on iOS essentially just Safari at it’s core? That’s a pretty big user base to punish.

Anyone else who was blind-sided by the HECS/HELP interest rate changes?

I guess I’m stupid. I didn’t realise they changes the interest rates on HECS. Is it true, you basically should pay it off ASAP because the interest now is massive (I think it says 7% on mygov). I always understood HECS was almost interest fee so I just left it for a long time. Now I’m desperately trying to pay it off...

cccc,

It’s not interest it’s indexation. It’s tied to inflation. If you knew about it then it was easy to see coming, but obviously if you didn’t then you didn’t.

It is possible to index negatively and reduce the balance but pretty unlikely with todays economy.

It’s applied once per year at the start of June so any voluntary repayments are best made before the last week of May. The repayments you make through the year as wage deductions aren’t put against your balance until after you do your tax return.

Chris Hemsworth. He was on holiday and very quiet, keeping to himself. I was staff aiding with his transport.

cccc,

He’s not used to having anyone in front of him anymore.

How do you lead/manage people who are much older than you?

So I’m getting a promotion soon (yay!), moving up from just a line cook to sous-chef and I’ve only been with this company for a few months. Thing is that I’m still quite young (mid twenties) and will be the direct supervisor of some people a fair bit older than I am. Think 10-20 years older. It might just still be a bit of...

cccc,

I used to work above a guy who had a reputation in the company for not really taking direction well from anyone (hence why he ended up in our section) and he was about double my age.

What I used to do was mention two things that needed doing and ask him which one he wanted to do. Most of what we did could’ve been done by either of us but in letting him pick what he wanted he had more inclination to actually do it. The rapport that came from this did allow me to jump on the few things that I wanted and get minimal backlash because I was fair most of the time.

Treat people with respect and make them feel like their opinions are valued.

If it comes to personal stories and life experience in conversation - try and take a lot more of a listening role and acknowledge their experience. They’ll feel valued in that space which will translate over to respect in the working space.

cccc,

They’ll still see upload/download volumes, speeds and patterns. Just not destinations. That alone could indicate torrent.

cccc,

It adds a lot of server space and traffic requirements so it’s probably better hosted externally.

cccc,

And the massive sigh when Max took it away from him!

cccc,

The low-middle income earner offset is gone this year so I imagine there will be quite a few people not getting as much back.

Doesn’t explain owing money though.
