Bro listing their innocence

As a PhD candidate who had to grade undergraduate papers, barely any of them know how to write and it’s painfully obvious when they try to cheat. In humanities a lot of my courses try to help the non-humanities students learn but not always successfully. It’s awesome when some students go from C’s to A’s based on my feedback. Makes the job worth while.

There is no strength, only coercion. I will be homeless (again) if I don't go. I do not have any other options. in c/memes@lemmy.ml

Weird, I’m signed in on it. Actually no, I won’t let me do anything via voyager!

Commenting to say how again was Borat so wildly accepted but if it was the other way around it’s racism

I have a hard time making friends. Anyone else? Any tips? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] ocean@lemmy.selfhostcat.com 5 points 2 days ago

I only find it hard because no one tries at all. St the beginning of my PhD I organized a ton of parties and near the end many in my own cohort would call on sick an hour before. We all have the same lives, I know they have no friends, what’s the point?

Luckily some of them were better than others but I feel people are so absorbed by their world and phones that they don’t step out much

  • Hacker news
  • Christian Science monitor, idk I think they’re pretty middle of the road news and state why they wrote every piece
  • youtube channels
  • some leftist news but it’s always a bummer
  • I do all my podcasts on podgrab

My goals with this com are to discuss information on realistic and informed prepping, not crazy conspiracy theory. (lemmy.selfhostcat.com)
 

I’ve found being more prepared has already helped my family for trips and power outage. Such planning also scratching that part of my brain that enjoys making spreadsheets and categorizing my library.

Open Source Github Repositories in Danger of being Deleted (lemmy.selfhostcat.com)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.zip/post/33425601

Looking for your personal lists of Github repositories, which might be deleted from Github at some point, for whatever reason. For example, the maintainer might delete his account from Github or archive all his repositories.

A famous example of an open source project, which had trouble to continue thriving, is youtube-dl.

Which projects' repositories do you think are worth backing up?

I found cryptpad, it seems nice. I already use NC but not for editing.

Seeking advice. I'm having trouble handling monthly finances and week budgets with multiple credit cards. What should I do? (lemmy.selfhostcat.com)
 

I feel I should get rid of them or stop using them but most have good benefits so I am unsure what I should do. I tried using YNAB but it isn't how I think about money. I really need to stick to my budget but with my partner and child I feel money is constantly flowing out.

  • Sams card great for Sams and gas. Free. Only use for the above.
  • PNC unlim good all around and free.
  • Older PNC card, told not to cancel because it is free for my credit. Only pay utils on it. Not worried about this one.
  • Amazon card, 5% discount on amazon for family essentials, free.
  • Amex, 95$, good all around, and great customer support.

I'm thinking I should possible cancel Amex and Amazon because they easily add up, then focus on just using my main PNC unlim card. Thoughts on this?

The Amazon discount and Amex purchase protection are both nice but having more than one with so many purchases as a family is stressful.

I don't see any reason to cancel the old PNC card or Sams card. Use around 100$ a month on them.

As paper material is often more long lasting and safer than digital, what do you decide to keep physical copies of? (lemmy.selfhostcat.com)
 

After learning this I printed off my PhD notes, prelims, and current dissertation.

I think datahoarding isn’t just keeping digital materials but taking care of what we have!
