Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

May have been covered before, but out of curiosity, are people here reasonably tech savvy?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I would say many people are, but not exclusively. There are plenty of non-technical people around, but I'd say we have a much higher proportion of tech savviness.

If you're interested, we did a census survey last year to learn about our users.

Over half of us work in IT. But many people don't!

I'm actually working on a new one at the moment for this year, the survey should be posted in the not too distant future. I've been working with lemmy.ca who were the inspiration for our one last year, to refine a set of questions.

Well, today is my last day at work before starting a well earned holiday - somehow I have managed to accumulate a full 2 months off

Sweet gig! Hope you enjoy 🫡

Wow, sounds like it's about time you had a holiday!

Got big plans or just a staycation?

thinking of heading down south for a few weeks at some point with the kids

Nice! If my memory is correct, @[email protected] (who hasn't been around recently so probably won't see this) runs a business on the West Coast that does caving trips for all ages. Something to consider!

Rad! I'd love to get down there again
