    Have you attempted to contact linked in support? And did you give a reason you couldn’t connect your work email? It seems like if it’s for work you can use your work email… or have IT create an email alias for you. At work I was given the standard email and I asked IT to use a more generic alias and they got it to me rather quickly.

    I’m very confused by your last statement. Do you have any suggested reading I can use to educate myself?

    It’s such a culture shock to me to switch to lemmy after I finish tildes for the day. I usually check tildes in the morning and read through the top activity of the last 24h. Then the rest of the day I’ll scroll lemmy if I need to. The vast difference in tone and substance of the comments is astonishing! Usually I forget I’m not in tildes and question if everyone is ok, then I remember. 🙃

    This feels like a very US centric rant and I wonder if we look at actual developed countries with good educational systems do we see the same issue with AI induced psychosis (and the plethora of other problems you cite).

    I’ll go check around and report back.

    To add to this, in a huge user of multiple desktops (usually one or two apps per desktop): three fingers up will expand to show you all windows on a desktop and all desktops (click to select one, click and drag to rearrange) or you can use three fingers left and right to switch adjacent desktops or ctrl + [1234] switches to said desktop.

    This works with full screen apps too (full screen soldering then swipe back) and helps keep things clean since Mac is awful at window mgmt out of the box.

    I think a great way to execute this is simply have users give reviews at the end of their playing experience. I saw a recommendation for a book club set up once that was: everyone reads a different book and then gives a presentation on their book at the meet up. I think this might be a great way to do this gaming book club. Have everyone pick a game to play and then come back and review it to the group. That could get around the time commitment issue (users only play gales they have time for).

    And wouldn’t you know it, we have a tildes discord for time strapped gamers that I think would work great for an async discussion forum (if you don’t do it in tildes itself)

    I couldn’t figure out how to say this without sounding like an ass: there’s also an app (three cheers). I take it you’re a person that doesn’t like apps? I have a friend like that so I’ve seen it before, it’s just foreign to me.

    I don’t mean to be rude, please read all that in a conversational tone and not a condescending tone!

    It seems they already found the person, but a thought I had to both stop the shooter and the fire: why not dump water from fire tanker aircraft on the suspected shooter’s location? Or fire retardant?

    Moot to talk about now, more just posting to see if anyone can tell me why (as usual) it’s a bad idea.

    It helps keep hackers to only one account. If they get my Facebook email they can guess but not always my Whole Foods email. Just small help. Sure spammers don’t care, but I don’t get spam these days.

    I do a form of this with gmail. My email is first.last@gmail.com and when I sign up for a service I use first.last+service@gmail.com

    Not totally obscure like above, but it keeps them unique enough that they are less likely to be guessed. Plus a unique password on each site helps.

    It’s a small layer of security to keep people from moving laterally through your accounts.
