Lemmy, what's your internet speed in mbps? in c/[email protected]

Damn, I pay something like £65 for that speed in the UK.

As someone not in tech, I have no idea how to refer to my tech friends' jobs in c/[email protected]

I have the words "software engineer" in my job title but I hate it.

Programmer is my preferred term, or software developer.

Code monkey is also acceptable.

Can you drive a manual transmission? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

I'm 36, I live in the UK, and I've driven a manual car since I was 17. I've only driven an automatic twice in my life and I'll probably never own one.
