    RegularJoe , to Funny in Why was the belt arrested?

    I heard it was an accessory to the suspenders’ crimes.

    RegularJoe , to Ask Lemmy in Should I go back to college/university?

    You want to work remotely in tech. I would look at places such as https://www.indeed.com/q-Remote-Tech-jobs.html?vjk=7909b7463088bb3a

    Look at which certs they want and how much experience they want. Look at the salary. Look at the quality of life (are you on call 24/7?).

    You may find that remote cybersecurity jobs are not plentiful. I searched "cyber security entry level" and Remote and found 2. I removed remote and found 300+ jobs.

    1 has flexible hours and wants (likely requires) experience in Version control as well as Sec+

    The other is full time, and wants a valid SSCP certification*, a bachelor's degree, and experience in operating systems.

    The future is always changing what people do. In 1100 AD blacksmithing was a reliable career, and it remained that way into the 1800s. The 20th century kind of messed that career path down to a niche group. Blue collar work (be it construction, plumbing, etc.) so far has been pretty reliable.

    RegularJoe , to Technology in 'Godfather of AI' says tech giants can't profit from their astronomical investments unless human labor is replaced

    The remarks echo what he said in September, when he told the Financial Times that AI will “create massive unemployment and a huge rise in profits,” attributing it to the capitalist system.

    So if the middle and lower classes don't have jobs, the Wealthy are going to circulate money back and forth? So trickle-down becomes trickle-around? Trickle down doesn't work as intended. So trickle around is likely to fail, too.

    RegularJoe OP , to Entertainment in ‘Ridiculousness’ Canceled at MTV After 46 Seasons

    With more than 1,700 episodes, “Ridiculousness” is one of the longest-running series in MTV history.... As Variety reported in 2020, the series has taken up as much as 113 hours (or more) a week out of the network’s 168-hour lineup. To many, the show became a symbol of the zombie-fication of MTV and its lack of original programming.

    RegularJoe , to news in Tucker Carlson’s interview with white nationalist triggers GOP backlash

    I couldn't get to the site, but from what I gather from other sites:

    • Tucker Carlson recently hosted Nick Fuentes, a known white-nationalist and antisemitic influencer, on his show.

    • This has sparked controversy.

    • The president of the Heritage Foundation defended Carlson.

    • The Heritage Foundation is an American conservative think tank founded in 1973. Kevin D. Roberts is the current president.

    • Roberts said that while he disagrees with Fuentes's views, canceling him is not the solution.

    • This seems to have divided the right. The Hill reports

    A civil war over the direction of the conservative movement and who should be considered part of it erupted after Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts posted a video Thursday defending Tucker Carlson for interviewing white nationalist Nick Fuentes.

    RegularJoe OP , to Entertainment in Beloved ’90s Singer Abruptly Postpones Show As Health Takes a ‘Turn for the Worse’ (Sarah McLachlan has laryngitis)

    Yes.

    RegularJoe OP , to Entertainment in Beloved ’90s Singer Abruptly Postpones Show As Health Takes a ‘Turn for the Worse’ (Sarah McLachlan has laryngitis)

    It's laryngitis, which is usually is not a big deal, but she's a singer.

    RegularJoe , to Shitty Ask Lemmy in Which superhero should work for the DMV?

    The Human Torch. Their motto could be: Learn to drive, or burn alive.

    RegularJoe , to Shitty Ask Lemmy in Are you out of line?

    UI: 0.19.12-3-gc6677485

    Yeah. I mean... probably. Well, most likely.

    RegularJoe , to Shitty Ask Lemmy in If you're not guilty, why did you run?

    This guy showed in up in a blue police box. He looked at me and said "Run!".

    I was following Doctor's advice.

    RegularJoe , to Tumblr in Wafrn is for People Who Miss Tumblr’s Chaotic Energy
    RegularJoe OP , to 70s Music in Cars - Gary Numan (1979; this is the 2009 remaster)

    The album (The Pleasure Principle) was released on 7 September 1979. Yes, it blew up big in 1980.
