It’s “rice” because it’s asian; it’s a derogatory term used towards people and their cars. When I was younger, this term was used against asian drivers and their asian cars - and it was not a compliment.
Looking at Urban Dictionary I see no mention of this anti-asian side of it, but it was there when I was growing up. Maybe others can chime in with their experience, I imagine it wasn’t the same everywhere.
Not implying the people using it here are being racist, I don’t think they are aware of what I’m recalling here.
A borderline racial slur about making things look good without substance behind the appearance: e.g.: “riced-up Honda civic”
Office is weird about it because of their OneDrive product
most of the people buying these are buying a costume, not a work vehicle, if my neighbors are any indication
it’s a status symbol
it crashed the first time I tried to reply to this post
Yikes. Can you imagine a more soul-crushing job than making marketing posters for the most boring soup possible?
I imagine it goes something like this:
Jim, we’ve got some ad space. Malls across the world. You’re going to use that as a canvas to sell tomato soup. People love tomato soup. Sells itself, by itself. Don’t show a grilled cheese near it - we don’t sell those and lets face it, tomato soup is not the arm candy in that pairing. Oh, and have fun with it! We’re a family. Please have it done by Sunday.
“The Lemmy Overseer” as I understand it is a backend service that gives us an API to use.
There is an open-source script for interacting with it. However, it does not tell you how that backend service works, exactly. It’s a black box with well defined interfaces, best case, as I understand it.
Important question; author kind of answers here:

If I were to rely on this for my instance, I would require that it be completely transparent and open source. It doesn’t look like this is; you have to trust that it is making good selections, and give it power over your federation status. It’s a dangerous tool, IMO, but I can understand why it would have appeal right now.
I still know permabulls that at least say they are buying with every paycheque. I doubt there are enough dollars doing that to keep the price afloat, if I were a whale I’d probably be selling, personally.
I’ve been taking a lot of notes for ~16 years. When you write too many, they become write-only. It’s too difficult to sift through them to find nuggets you can synthesize into something else. I’ve tried structuring my notes after writing them, but this becomes remarkably time consuming and difficult to do unless you are extremely diligent about how frequently you do it.
You’ve got to structure your notes as you write them, and LogSeq makes this easy.
I still take a lot of notes via “Note to self” in a messaging app; I don’t use the LogSeq mobile app because of some opinions I have around syncing (if you pay, you can sync, but I want full ownership of my notes and to trust that they are private). However it’s just a copy-and-paste for me, because I’ve got my hashtag structure figured out mostly.
I have a few tips for new users:
It might take you some time to find the “themes” of your notes, before you’ve really wrapped your head around it you might just pepper hashtags everywhere. Eventually it becomes pretty clear. Use them diligently and later when you get fancy with search and queries you’ll be glad you did.
Separate larger thoughts in the outliner - sub-thoughts, parallel thoughts. Make child blocks. Remember that child blocks inherent the tags of their parent blocks, so don’t repeat tags in child blocks or the search results will get messy. When you come to a conclusion, hide your evidence and reasoning under your conclusion for future reference.
Finally,
I am very glad I’ve been journalling for so long. I wish I had done it more. Every now and then I go back to old journal entries and revisit the me of the past, and the problems I had. I can reflect on them, add amendments, and essentially have a conversation with myself through time. It is remarkably valuable.
i getcha, but it was people who did that. it’s kind of hard to shut us up, we’ll answer more questions wherever we are
most knowledge has a shelf life anyway
I agree, but it should still be retired regardless of intended usage - history matters; we don’t have to mistakenly other people to show off cool screenshots
