This is unironically true -- being forced into a car-centric mindset makes monsters out of most people in c/fuckcars@lemmy.world

But there's also time where people are literal dicks. Most times I drive, at least one driver does something selfishy reckless. I'm reminded every time I drive why I hate it

Pretty simple, but it is salty! Love the stuff

I take off the pit by rubbing the knife against the sink so it pops off in the sink, and doesn't dirty anything I can't clean easily.

Never heard of this game, may check it out, thanks!

How nice of you man. Looking for an offline game for my little cousin, 9. He had really only played shooters, so I'll take anything you recommend. Sans a recommendation, I'd take bot vice.

LAist cuts staff by 5%, citing ongoing budget strain and potential federal funding loss in c/globalnews@lemmy.zip

Damn that's really unfortunate. I really enjoy LAist and provide money to NPR.

Social drinking also a well-worn path to alcohol use disorder in c/hackernews@lemmy.bestiver.se
[–] Habahnow@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Interesting that there appears to be a lacking of studies on social drinking because that is the most common form that I usually see. Hope we can do more to help people. I'm very optemistic with the next generation that doesn't enjoy drinking as much. Drinking is ultimately not very healthy, and I definitely encourage people to not drink, despite the fact that I enjoy it.

Nah, I remember during his first presidency, it would sometimes be weeks lol. Checking out his Twitter posts was what finally convinced me Republicans are nowhere near the same as Democrats or that they are well intentioned politicians.

Gas prices could top $8 in California by 2026 due to refinery closures, report warns in c/news@lemmy.world
[–] Habahnow@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago

That is true, but people start to agree with Republicans more when they personally affected. People don't like spikes in the price of anything, especially gasoline.

Yeah as much of an environmentalist that I am, I don't think prices surging that high in California (and the west coast in general, is my understanding) would be great from an environmental aspect. In the short term there would be some reduction in gas use, but I can imagine Republicans and other pouncing on this politically to roll back some environmental legislation.

is there a way to differentiate hidden rooms that are gardens vs a regular garden? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I'm playing with challenges so no special plants Spawn in any hidden gardens. If the door is hidden you know it is a hidden garden but I completely forgot if it was originally hidden. So is there a way to differentiate the two? I may have to look into the source code to even figure it out, if no one has an answer.

Applying to LA city jobs and need some clarifications (sh.itjust.works)
 

I'm trying to apply to this role: https://www.governmentjobs.com/careers/lacity/jobs/4639070-0/programmer-analyst-1431-k-revised-8-28-24

Most of the information appears to be straight forward with applying except for the certification requirements, specifically:

SELECTIVE CERTIFICATION In accordance with Charter Section 1010(b) and Civil Service Rule 5.31, selective certification will be used for some positions that require certifications in one or more of the following areas. Only persons possessing the following at the time of filing may be considered for appointment to fill such positions.

  1. Certification as a Microsoft Certified Applications Developer, Microsoft Certified Solutions Developer or Microsoft Certified Programmer. proceeds to list 22 other certifications

My confusion is, does that mean I need to have all of those certifications in order to even be considered for the role? Does that mean that my bachelor's degree and experience not help with these certifications? If I don't have any of these certificates, does that mean any organization offering certificates would satisfy their requirements?

Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you

Resources for RESTful API Integration practice? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I’m doing interviews for companies that would involve API integrations. I’ve done a couple now where I was given some general API information (some intentionally unclear, some more clear) and I felt I didn’t do well. Mainly I was nervous, and felt very pressured just to understand how the different parts of the APIs interact with each other and should be interacted with. This is despite doing this for work and myself not feeling as nervous doing more common coding tests which I don’t do as much at work(thanks to doing examples on hackerrank, Leetcode helping me feel more comfortable).

So what are the resources I should leverage to practice API integrations? How should I go about practicing? Especially considering that I do need to perform in a certain way during interviews.

Steam stuck on logging in for anyone else? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Having a unique issue where steam is not logging in for me. Its stuck on the logging pop up and stays like that. Is anybody else having this issue? I'm on Ubuntu, it was just working about 10 hours ago. I made and reverted a change thinking that's what caused it but that doesn't seem to be the case.

I had to run steam through terminal using the command: steam -tcp and got it to work.

Los Angeles wants a ‘no-car’ Olympics in 2028. Is it possible? (www.theguardian.com)
 

I was a bit pessimistic about this being possible, but to see that we did this in the 1984 Olympics without any light rail is pretty amazing to hear.
