  • If nobody attended, what would be getting summarised? I get what you’re saying, I’ve definitely been in organisations that had pointless meetings. “This meeting could have been an email” is a meme for a reason. Others though, it’s where different departments come together and share news/status, different executive/managers give run downs and updates about the company (e.g. chief of ops presents figures and areas that could be improved) and employees can ask questions about these or other pertinent topics.


  • Because this user didn’t attend. Meetings are generally long form and dynamic. Which can’t be done as efficiently in email. 30-60 minutes meetings are fine to attend in person (in terms of parsing information). Consuming that same information via video after the fact is a chore; as is relying on the note taking skills of another employee. I agree with the user you’re replying to. Note taking is one of the few things AI is decent at.



  • Given it’s illegal, it’s very unlikely. Why go through all the effort of getting a degree (and presumably a job in the relevant field) to risk losing it all and a criminal conviction to snoop on your roommate? If you’re that paranoid put BIOS passwords on your device and get a smart plug that’ll log whenever the device draws power.





  • Blaze alt here, mod of the community.

    I not sure what makes me feel more weird about this, feeling the need to announce this, waiting until now to do so or alt posting to a comm you mod.

    The link to your own comment.

    I’m unsure what your position is here, that these communities, be it in Lemmy or elsewhere aren’t frequently dealing with the posts I referenced or that people (plenty of which, have explicitly told you) aren’t tired of it. I am sure this conversation has probably reached its apex and that by this stage we’re probably not going to learn anything further about each others opinions.


  • 3 pages of posts with my sopuli alt

    I wasn’t doubting you, I was explaining the reason for my incorrect assumption.

    You can take any reprehensible behaviour and phrase it that way

    I rephrased a rule to seem less “suppressing any criticism of JKR” as your provided example. It highlight her actions and makes it clear what the comm is about.

    https://lemm.ee/c/teslamotors@lemmy.zip doesn’t try to avoid discussing Musk actions

    Ok and? That doesn’t have anything to do with wanting a space to discuss HP and HP related memes without JKR? Because one comm does things a certain way, all must? No.

    … But as I said, if you find an instance that would welcome such community, feel free to create it.

    I’m aware I could create a comm, thank you. I’d much rather advocate this for the current community as I am currently doing rather than just taking my ball and starting an entire new comm. I get you disagree and that’s fine but I’m not the only person tired of seeing content from a pitiful, hateful person in practically any HP related community.


  • That’s good to know, but a brief glance over your post history showing more soccer post than anything related lead me to that assumption.

    There is a pinned meta post in the community about this topic

    Which why I don’t think frequently posting about her is needed or on topic.

    "this community doesn’t allow to talk about JKR actions against trans people "

    Or the rule could be phrased as “this community acknowledges and disavows JK horrendous views and actions against the trans community, however it is not the topic of this community and is discouraged due to this and inciting negativity. “

    You can expect defederation from a few instances, and probably the whole instance being qualified as “transphobic friendly”

    If those instance wanted to defederate because I wasn’t willing to have off topic posts of the latest hate filled tweet from an idiot, then that’s their prerogative.


  • I really think people who are not posting anything here but JK Rowling posts should be discouraged if not a rule made for it. I think an overwhelming portion of the fan base disagree with or at least are aware of her opinions on trans people.

    I like HP, I like HP memes and JK won’t see another cent from me. Which sucked because I wanted to play legends due to never getting any real solid HP games as a kid. That said, I would like a HP community that isn’t plagued with these sort of post though.





  • Yeah SharePoint links are cooked. I copied a url from SharePoint and it crashed my remote session with someone and pretty sure its BSoD my device more than once. Upping the file path limit locally won’t help.

    You can go to a SharePoint folder on the site and hit “sync” which will then add it to your file explorer if you have OneDrivs. Makes for easier navigation and collaboration. Fucked if I know how end users were meant to divine that.
