  • Ah shit the sheep thing! In fact, there were others I can’t remember. And I seem to remember somewhere along the line they went from fun to spam things walking around your screen trying to make you buy shit or maybe they were trying to scam you, I can’t remember but they weren’t fun anymore, and hard to get rid of.



  • I mean I guess you are supposed to take it to your computer repair shop and tell them it won’t stop playing Für Elise, and the shop is supposed to recognise it as a failure of CPU fan signal. If it just beeped a few times on startup then people would ignore it, and if it beeped constantly then well maybe Für Elise is nicer.

    Haha I remember the days of downloading random EXEs off the internet and running them to see what they do (also the days of CD-rom drives).

    My auntie somehow managed to get a virus that played Für Elise through the motherboard speaker and never stopped so long as the thing was on. I don’t think they ever solved it, in the end they just got a new PC.

    Yeah I’m not sure what the weekly stand up is trying to achieve, maybe I’m just lucky but I don’t recall ever being in a team with these.

    I do believe 1:1s are important, but that’s outside of scrum and should be on a schedule that works for the participants (might be an hour weekly for some, half an hour monthly for others).

    I’ve recently been in a scrum team that failed to follow most of this structure and it was a shambles.

    I agree that this setup gives purpose to each meeting, and they are all things that are important.

    If we could have basically only these meetings then that would be ideal, IMO.

    In many cases, the mod probably removed the content. It will show on the post as removed but won’t show on the user profile, so you may not know they have posted.

    But I’d guess a direct API call would work too. When you click the ban from community button on a post, your webpage or app makes an API call to the Lemmy back end to tell Lemmy to trigger that action. You can also manually send an API call if you know what you’re doing. I would assume it’s possible to ban a user from a community by doing this, so long as you had the permission to ban a user from a community.
