Trump Accuses Federal Workers of ‘Playing Golf’ After He Spent the Last Three Weekdays at His Golf Courses in c/[email protected]
[–] PrincessLeiasCat 67 points 1 day ago (14 children)

But I don’t. I have never played golf. I have no desire to play golf. I never played golf while working remotely…I never even thought about it.

This is insulting - not because he’s saying I’m lazy and don’t do my work, but because he thinks I would play golf.

If I wanted to be lazy and not do work while being remote, I would play video games like other civilized people. I have some self respect.

This is so awful - and the rhetoric of the Trump admin enables it.

Is there a good podcast that’s kinda like the keeptrack sub that walks you through the events of the day before, what it means, what the implications are, if this has happened before somewhere else, what the outcome was, what our options going forward, and on a scale of 1 to fascist, how fucking close are we?

This is a great resource, and I hope it helps a lot of people.

My agency, and my job specifically, must be done right or people could get hurt. So things like renaming files or purposefully scheduling meeting conflicts aren’t options. I need to find specific bits of technical information to ensure a design is safe. I need to have meetings for safety reviews and make sure there isn’t anything that my group missed that could end up hurting someone.

I’m not saying these won’t be helpful to us in the future, if my agency’s current mission were to change in some way, but right now it’s the same as it was during the last administration. I will keep it in my back pocket though for when I feel it’s necessary.

Thank you!

NASA’s budget is less than 1% of the entire federal budget. We can do both.

iPhone 15 Pro keeps randomly dropping wifi (self.apple_enthusiast)
 

I upgraded from a 13 Pro to a 15 Pro. So far the only internet I’ve connected to since I got the phone is at home, but with 2 different networks (one is 5g but otherwise same router and everything).

I never updated the 13 Pro to iOS 17 because I knew I would be upgrading soon, but I never had this issue with any former phone and have been on this same internet setup since 2016.

I have an iPad Mini 6 that I did update to iOS 17, and it’s fine.

I’ve tried resetting network settings, turning off Wi-Fi assist, turning off networking and wireless in location services-> system services (saw that as a potential fix), and restarting multiple times, but it still randomly drops my WiFi signal on both home networks.

Everything else wrt network/connection on my previous phone is the same - VPN setup, etc.

My SO has a 14 pro & did update to 17 and does not have this problem.

Does anyone have any ideas? I’ve searched for answers and I see that this has been an issue off and on for the past few years, but one of the fixes I mentioned above usually seems to help I guess because I haven’t seen any other suggestions.

Could it be the phone itself? Is it worth exchanging it for another one before the 2 weeks runs out?

Thanks everyone.

I forgot to go back for Lae'zel, is it too late? (self.baldurs_gate_3)
 

Long story short, I ran into Lae’zel in the cage just after we wake up on the beach in the very beginning.

I went by her and reloaded for reasons, but accidentally went a different way after that, forgot about it, & just realized she would be good to have as a Companion during combat.

I’m about to kill the goblins, and I went back for her at her previous location but she’s no longer there. Did I lose her for good, or is there still a chance?

Thanks everyone, I’m new to BG/D&D completely so apologies if this is a dumb n00b move, but I am one :)

New Orleans archbishop ignored board findings on clerics accused of abuse (www.theguardian.com)

A board which helps the Roman Catholic archbishop of New Orleans, Gregory Aymond, evaluate abuse allegations against priests and deacons in six cases found clergymen to be credibly accused only for Aymond to ignore the findings and conceal them from the public, a Guardian investigation has found.

Request: Option to change location of comment voting button(s) (self.lemmiosapp)
 

Lemmios is my favorite iOS Lemmy app so far, but I find that when I go to upvote a comment using the voting button next to the commenter’s username (top), I inadvertently collapse the comment.

Would it be possible to have both voting buttons either on the right side like posts have, or at the bottom?

I understand gestures are an option, it’s just a personal preference with the voting buttons. Old habits die hard :)

And if this feature exists, I apologize for missing it. I have looked for it in the settings but did not see such an option. Thank you for such great work with Lemmios!
