For my account, it restored to the actual original content, not the overwritten.

I can also confirm. I nuked an alt account last year using an app that replaces the content with [deleted] before deleting the post. I'd say at least about 40% of those posts have …

It very much depends on the company and the bosses. I've seen visa status used to keep wages low and to lock people into shitty jobs and positions. These companies also use visa ho…

Apple and other mega corps really need to spend some money investing in training/education for these highly specific fields. Advancement in Siri shouldn't be dependent on 3 people …

The worst part of even trying to have a discussion about men's health and issues today is how often it devolves into arguments about male status in society. If we had more empathy …

Unfortunately it takes that kind of language to get some people to even notice men face issues. The constant bombardment of "Men's advantages" by many groups has had the effect tha…

I've moved 4 times in my adult life. The two biggest issues I've had with making friends is the lack of a gathering place for like minded people, and being accepted by existing cli…

These seemed like a humble brag by upper class jet-setters who get to crow about the "commute" and sacrifices they are making while patting themselves on the back for saving a buck…

I wouldn't consider Austin low COL.

I need to see more examples, as it stands the example photos look soulless. It's the eyes, they don't seem to be focused on a particular target like the camera. And a few seem like…

Get all the sleep you can now. Don't be afraid to ask for help. Learn to accept you are not perfect and will screw up. At some point, when your child is older they will have some a…

I'll warn you that Plex will do everything possible to get you to add an account. One update (several years back) locked me out of making any changes to my server until I created a…

I'd try jellyfin first to see if it fits your needs. I went with plex years ago, because they had good app support on the various devices in my house. (Mostly roku now) The problem…

As a US citizen, I often wonder how much value we are getting back from our military spending and what amount are we being bilked by the defense industry. I've heard all kinds of s…

A little backstory, then update. Unknown to me at the time, boss had independently made a widget that was responsible for a sizable portion of the profit for this company. He was i…

I made the mistake and told the truth one time early in my career. I got fired, err... I wasn't retained after a multi-month temp period, and was brought in to be fired, then exit …

The two things that bother me about Veritasium are his brand of pseudo-intellectual (smugness maybe?) and the fact that his videos often aren't telling the whole picture.

>What should I do? You should take a moment, and try to understand the other side of your request. Read this response from /r/antiwork, it's about a new manager having to get his t…

I always seem to have hardware that hits an edge case for Linux support. Take my gpu's sound support. If I run sound through DisplayPort it runs 40% slower and an octave an a half …

My solution for audio on Linux was to buy a cheap USB sound adapter. They can often be found for under $10 and they just work.

The amount of slacking your allowed to get away with depends greatly on your job/boss/organization. If you're a slacker, almost everyone around you knows. The usual reasons I've se…
