Prrr’de good question.

The hunt for red onion.

lemmy silver for being honest! LoL

If there was lemmy gold, I’d give it to you for that one.

I’m going on what I heard from Security Now but it is my understanding that apple was the only one pushing for this and the others just voted to approve even though apple was never able to present a convincing argument for why it needed to be shortened.

True, but the podcasters I heard about this from were posting at least once a week with one three times a week. They were all pissed and talked about how it would potentially hurt their subscribership. And most left because of the switch.

Having only been a patron and not a creator I have no way to back up any of this other than relay the things I heard from their rants… which there were quite a few of after the initial announcement.

Shitpost, but it did get me thinking. After doing the math, my ex’s daughter who I took to the park everyday after school will be graduating high school this month… and another ex’s son will be a senior next year. Yeah I’ve got nothing, time fly’s, blah blah blah.

Yep crApple is the one pushing for the shorter SSL certificate length too. Their just adding headaches to everyone’s lives for no good reason.

The change from pay per episode to per month was a direct result of crApple’s 30% tax. This hurt Patreon directly because a bunch of creators were pissed about the change and blamed Patreon for not fighting back, so they left. So Patreon has lost revenue over this, how much I have no idea but I know several of the podcasts I listen to have stopped asking you to pay via Patreon and are now asking you to donate via Substack or their private donation page.

I work in international freight for a mega corp, a few years back I was offered a position on days (I’m currently 3rd shift) with the promise of better hours, lower quotas, andquicker chance at promotion.

Day shift - spending all day on the phone getting yelled at by idiots who used a crayon and a napkin to hand write a bill of lading, and now are furious that I won’t break multiple federal and international laws to get their fucking crate of plastic trinkets across the border.

Night shift - processing international shipping documents while listening to podcasts and audiobooks. 1 or 2 drivers call per night with issues that require 1 maybe 2 phone calls to resolve, generally resolved in less than 30 minutes and almost always I only speak with other knowledgeable professionals in the industry.

Now that the promotion is just around the corner, the extra two years I spent on nights was worth my sanity.

Jesus Christ… I’m old enough to have kids that would have said yet… where’s my ibuprofen?

Oh look at Mr. Big shot over here. The rest of us can only get hootie and the blowfish in a kiddy pool. Oh well good for you.

No worries, I should get going too, my girlfriend is waiting for me in Canada.

You really think people would do that? Just go on the Internet and lie?

So many questions…so little desire to have that in my search history.

DO YOU WANNA UCX?

I guess we’re all different, my lips definitely touched when saying one. There’s got to be an outlier for everything I guess.

Just counted out loud, one…lips touched.

That’s great, I hate it.

Feels bad man.
