not with that mindset, no.

there’s alternatives to driving, even for those that are financially struggling. crazy, right?

but when I say the rising fuel costs could be good for other modes of transportation, I get attacked.

eat this, car brained americans!

Useful to who? If you need an LLM to write just a basic e-mail/comment/caption you’re maybe … how do I say this nicely? Not that smart …

If you use an LLM as a search engine, same thing.

If you use an LLM as a psychologist, same damn thing.

And the majority of people are using it for those things. It’s just plain stupidity. I’m not saying there’s no use to AI, but right now it’s being used in a terrible way by people that have no use for it at all.

At this point I just hope it’s buzzwords in the job listing rather than a must for the job. I still have a 12 weeks notice period, so can afford to be picky at the moment. If time runs out, I’ll just have to accept it. Besides, I can still opt to just don’t use it once I land a job. Who says I am obliged to do it?

and “leverage” them, whatever you mean by that

yeah, just to have all copy the same … which sucks.

they’re also looking for a videographer. and, you guessed it:

FART, TURD AND TWAT

I know Belgium when I see it!

oh, yeah, sober still! I know it would be terrible to give in now, given my tendency to fall down the alcohol hole again. For the moment it’s not hard at all, actually, but I often reflect on how badly I would handle the situation if I hadn’t quit drinking.

being Belgian, I have to pass on a lot of good beers, tho, but I need to be able to control myself first before even thinking about an occasional drink.

I just lost my job and been sober for almost six months. This speaks to me

Strong question to ask someone named “DeathByBigSad”

Hope OP can talk to someone and pull through. There’s always people that can help and want to listen!

Mainly iOS since I got (and often need, because of camera) for my job. Lineage on my second phone that I mainly use at home. No sim tho, more of an entertainment/“home system” phone. No google installed or logged in. Just a different approach to differentiate my phone use at home

edit: forget to add “since I got an iPhone” in the first sentence

du bist Beamter?

Belgian checking in!

let me introduce the Dutch to you … Every corner of the world you’ll find a Dutch tourist.

just like they forced reels on everyone by pushing it in the algorithm to later say “see! everyone wants reels now, they don’t want photos anymore!”

I graduated in '21, moved in with my gf at the same time, started working (to afford rent and surviving, you know) and bought a house last year. But go off I guess. I have bills to pay and hate cars as the sole method of transportation at the same time, it’s amazing! Even have my driver’s license since I was 18 (9 years already, how time flies). Crazy concept.

I’ll go have fun with reading a good book now. Cheerio!

Oh no, rising food prices could be real. But that doesn’t mean other things should be expensive as well. There is always a chance to cut personal costs elsewhere - like transportation, for instance.

What I do believe is that it could be the thing that’s needed to push for better infrastructure and public transportation, but that won’t happen if you just look at it as if you’re only a victim and can’t do anything about it. If people can get vocal and push their (local) government to look at alternatives, you could achieve a lot. If you just want to sulk in a corner acting like “oh it’s bad and there’s nothing that can be done”, then you’re the narrow minded one. Look at the opportunity it brings and that could be solved in the medium/long term. Okay, you have a short term problem, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be solved. You said in another comment “because alternate options just pop up over night”. No, they don’t, but if you expect every problem to be fixed over night, you’re gonna have a very difficult life.
