dear introverts, what can I answer to a needy and clingy coworker who believes not talking means something's wrong (with me), so he leaves me alone? in c/[email protected]

OP didn't say they were unattracted to them either. And if you saw my advice as anything other than a joke, that's on you.

Telling someone you are attracted to them and asking them out is not sexual harassment. It might be against workplace rules, but that depends on the workplace. Having consensual sex with someone after a date is also not sexual harassment. It could be seen as "quid pro quo" if one of them is the other's boss.

If at any point the person asks you to stop and you continue, then that is sexual harassment.

Tell him you feel shy around him because you're attracted to him, and then ask him out on a date. Either he'll leave you alone or you'll get some. Win/win

Put the same text in 6 different languages (maybe: English, Mandarin Chinese, Hindi, Russian, Arabic, and Bengali to get as many scripts as possible?) on each side of the cube. Be the Rosetta Stone of the future. Be sure to get a native speaker to look over each text before you comission it.

That should be enough work to discourage you. :)

How did you spice things up in your life? in c/[email protected]

I got a better paying job. Pretty much every aspect of my life has since improved.

Yo, I found this for 380$ should I buy it and how well does Linux run on it, if you have one of this is it a good in term of build quality in c/[email protected]

My husband has had an MSI bravo for a few years. Uses it constantly, and it's great. No issues outta it whatsoever. However, he does not use Linux on it. He prefers to dual boot and the SSD is a little small for that (if you also want to install games).

Wow. I thought a cocaine key was like short for kilo. Which I guess is an insane amount.

I never thought about putting the cocaine in the line etched into a key.

I'd like to think they're all just Russian trolls but increasingly, I think some people are just selfish or dumb. in c/[email protected]

You went through all the trouble of using eth everywhere, but you left out the accent in derrière?

How much RAM do the systems have? 8gb? The delay may be in the system making room in ram for the program. Win11 is so ram hungry. It's stupid.

Disabling JavaScript through ublock origin also does the same (horrible) thing, frequently.

Is anyone familiar with this alert? I believe it is Motorola-specific (lemmy.ml)

Hello all!

My new phone (Moto G Stylus 5G 2024 running Android 14) keeps giving me this alert that an app is giving full screen notifications. The app in question is the freaking telephone app, which I of course want full screen notifications from! There's no option to disable the alert. (The two choices are "go to options" and "not now," by the way. And "go to options" takes you to the telephone app's notification settings.) I cannot seem to find a setting related to this, and I've disabled every Motorola app (including system apps) that I can find in the app list. Although, some of them don't allow disabling.

Anybody familiar with this by chance? I'm getting this stupid alert for every other phone call.

Thank you!

Are there still any versions of Linux sold in a box like in the 90s / 2000s? (lemmy.ml)

I've tried to find them to no avail. I'm guessing the box sets just aren't made anymore, but I figured it's worth asking in case there's some obscure one out there somewhere.

To clarify, I'm looking for a more recent Linux version. I know the older ones can be found on auction sites and the like.

Does anybody remember the Rugrats desktop companions / virtual pets? (lemmy.ml)

I remember finding them on the Internet somewhere in the early 2000s. I remember that Kimi was one of them, so it would have to have been after the second movie (Rugrats in Paris). Anybody remember these things? I can't find any details about them online.
