True, and I was drawing on anecdotal evidence that I didn’t elaborate on in my original comment. While I know there are people who do not do well or enjoy work from home, I have yet to meet those people, all my coworkers and friend group are loving work from home.
So a more accurate statement would have been, based on my personal experience along with with coworkers and my friend circle this study is B.S.
I have a buddy in Japan who was a foreign exchange student here in the U.S. years ago. When he went back home I had to use Line to talk to him, I tried for years to get him to use Signal and after years of nagging he agreed to start using Discord… well at least it’s not Whatsapp…
41 year old male, no kids, no wife or girlfriend, been work from home for 5 years now. I’ve never been happier and more productive.
I get my sense of community from my friends not my coworkers. This study is B.S.
Yeah in my teens and early 20’s I basically lived on Pepsi, mountain dew, and Gatorade. How I avoided kidney stones I’ll never know.
In my 20’s I became a self-employed courier with a contract for one long route and then anything I could pick up on the side. After a while I started talking a small Dr pepper and a large bottle of water with me every night. I basically forced myself to drink more water since I was trapped in my car for hours on a tight schedule and the Dr pepper didn’t last long.
Now at 41 I mainly drink water and hot tea. I still enjoy a mini can of Dr pepper once in a while but once or twice a week is enough for me.
Yep my work laptop is win11, this happens every time. I just wait till the end of the day, click update and shut down, let the dog out and then give her breakfast (I work nights) then go back and shut down from lock screen.
Meanwhile on my Linux laptop, “downloading critical system files” SUDO shut down, “whatever you say boss” and 10 seconds later it’s off.
I admit I don’t watch every video, I’m subscribed but I just kind of let videos come to my home feed and watch that way. I mainly use YT as background noise while doing something else.
His reasoning makes sense, so I guess I’ll just continue to watch on YT since I have no desire to join FP. Thanks for the info!
Yeah I’m not big on LTT either, I’d like to see him on Nebula. The price is reasonable and they have some really good high quality content.
Believe it or not, straight to jail.
If they are really nostalgic for that, tell them to use react os.
As one headline put it “PornHub pulls out of France”.
I dealt with this for years, then I developed GERD and had to get a wedge pillow to angle myself up. That wedge pillow with a medium firmness regular pillow is perfect.
Not to mention if you primarily watch videos on your TV you’re out of luck.
I always wonder if he has any siblings, like and what did you do? “I sold more units this quarter and got a congratulatory certificate with a $25 Applebee’s gift card”.
I’m sure the editor who wrote that headline got a good giggle out of that.
SSDs are getting reasonable, you might want to look into it again if that’s your use case.
Oh yeah, I run spinning rust in my nas. All data storage for me is on HDDs, only OS date is on the SSD. That’s for the nas and my computer.
And you’d have the benefit of your next trip to the toilet being self-wiping!
This is how I know I’m getting old, my first thought was “spinning rust for always on long term storage” and then I remembered it’s 2025 and SSD’s are about equal now.
Get off my lawn, your interrupting Matlock!
True, but we were full time in the office before lockdown and at least half the staff is from before lockdown. Also our job listings are for hybrid positions since there is a rarely enforced office mandate.
