First major study of employee behavior upon switching from conventional floor plan to #openfloorplan offices reveals a greater than two-thirds decline in face to face interaction, a more than 50% increase in electronic interaction, and a decline in productivity in the #openplan offices (specifics of the productivity decline were not shared by the companies under study)

Is there a way to do an #Ubuntu flavor (preferably) or at least a .deb based distro by building it up the way I hear one can with #Arch and architect? #Linux

I think it peaked at Mint 17. I've had my hands on it less than an hour and a half, there are fit & finish bugs and oversights everywhere, machine is crashy and I am suspicious of noveau bugs but driver manager offers no way to install the proprietary drivers I already told the installer to install, and vim is offered in the software manager as a fucking flatpak. I think I'm done. #LinuxMint #LinuxMint19

Programmer friends: Many of us have deeply-ingrained habits of making fun of whichever languages, tools, OSes, etc we don't personally use. Please don't. I highly recommend reading Aurynn Shaw's essay on "Contempt Culture", which I have to revisit myself periodically: https://blog.aurynn.com/2015/12/16-contempt-culture

without migration tools the fediverse is not truly federated. whether we're forking mastodon or sticking with it, we need them. boost. share. comment. code.

we sent music to aliens in the 70s but we're not allowed to listen to it because "lol copyrights"

I made a thing for generating full-history RSS feeds for sites that have consistent weekly update schedules and predictable URLs:
https://fh.minilop.net
For example, here's a feed for Doonesbury: https://fh.minilop.net/f/America+Chicago/c3107d1e/https://www.gocomics.com/doonesbury/%25Y/%25m/%25d
And one for Schlock Mercenary: https://fh.minilop.net/f/America+Denver/1c69a1229e/http://www.schlockmercenary.com/%25Y-%25m-%25d
If your feed reader supports RFC5005, these feeds will show every post ever made, not just the most recent ones. But your feed reader probably doesn't support RFC5005... yet?

Yeah, I bought my phone after researching models that supposedly work well with Lineage 14. It can be really dicey on random hardware. Hope it works out

@craigmaloney yeah I remember the federated social scene a decade ago and things really really have changed for the better

@chosafine Amen. I was here for identi.ca and the first wave of federated social media and I'm amazed at this iteration and how far it's come. The growth is there if you look for it.

#ForkTogether
Hello, everyone! If you've been following @maloki for updates on the ongoing effort to #ForkTogether, then you may be happy to know that we had our first meeting on Saturday and are still planning out governance and infrastructure before the project "officially" starts.
If you're looking to follow the progress of the fork, or you're looking to get involved, follow here for updates!

@djsundog I.... pretty much just install #LineageOS and then don't update it until the Alzheimers sets in and I have to reinstall 😬😬

listen, tech industry, all your platform offerings are mediocre as fuck, so at least let me easily choose which version of suck I want on any given hardware, you fucks. I paid for it, it's mine.
