Regardless of how exactly the stat is calculated, I am sure it is massively inflated by college football budgets

The Scottish and Irish have been saying that for hundreds of years

I'm guessing Lurantis

I think we need a few more.

You know, just to be sure.

Random testing is legally hard, pre-hire is easier (but they still need an excuse, grocery stores aren't likely to have one).

Lots of places in Canada drug test, but it's mostly construction. Also, last time I was looking for work, it was a swab instead of a piss test, so at least they're getting more reasonable

And not reading the article, apparently. Yeah, fuck you, I guess.

Capitalism doesn't allow ethical business to be viable, though.

Costco seems to be doing just fine paying their workers a decent wage

Pretty sure he just prefers the taste with orange juice as opposed to drinking it straight

Currently the 'Parent' button takes you to the top-level comment of the thread. Could it be split into two buttons, one of which takes you to the immediate parent comment?

 

Does anybody know of a list of usb live-bootable distros, with links to the download pages?

I have a coworker who wants to switch his gaming computer over to Linux, he has Linux experience but from like a decade ago.

He's not partial to any particular distro, so I was hoping to just put together a multiboot flash drive with a bunch of live images he could try. But I'm not sure what I should include, and what has live images, vs. install only images.

I'm most comfortable in an environment with apt, so Debian and Mint are of course already covered, but if the gaming-specific distros have live usb images, that would probably be the best thing for him to try.

 
 

When reading a web page within Connect, it would be nice if long-pressing on links in the webpage would give a popup with the option to open the link in an external browser (and probably also an option to just copy the link). I frequently find myself linked to Wikipedia from a Lemmy comment, and then want to open other links from that wiki page, so then I have to open the page I'm on externally and refind my spot in the article.

Having the same options when long-pressing a link in a comment/post would be nice as well.

 

Edit: there's already a setting for it, another user pointed it out. Ignore me :)

~~Currently, when you block an instance or community, it's blocked app-wide. I had blocked various NSFW communities and instances on my main account so that they don't show up in my All feed, but now I can't access them from my NSFW account unless I use a different app to do so, or repeatedly unblock and reblock them as needed.~~

~~Can we instead make block lists on a per-account basis (or have the option of account-associated or global blocking)?~~

 

The text when I try to type comments (but not the text in the search bar or, as I'm just now learning, here in the 'post body' text box) is white, and I can't find the setting to change it. Obviously I could change my background back to the default blue that it was, but that's the opposite of a solution.

Anybody know?
