At some point, things are gonna get bad enough that the masses will turn on them. That’s why they’re all buying islands and building bunkers. We should do it now, while it can make a difference.

Looks interesting. Marked it for exploration. Too many cool projects to explore and not enough time!

Go to a jewelry shop and ask for advice. If they’re any good at their job, they field tons of customers just like you and make recommendations based on what you tell them about your partner and maybe a photo.

That’s after the merger.

I reported a bug too late in the dev cycle and it hasn’t been fixed since 2009.

We’re being forced to move everyone to W11 by the end of the year. It’s gonna be hell.

This is the thing I hate most about windows. Did it register the thing I clicked? Is something happening? If I click again will it do the task twice? Complete opposite of how my Mac works.

They’re too long. Geez, learn to implement shorthand or acronyms. What are you a monster?

This is the year of Firefox-on-the-desktop. I can feel it.

It’s been more than 20y since the first time I remember sternly declining to give either a phone number or postal code to a cashier in a retail shop. It pissed me off then and still pissed me off now.

Airlines are assholes and they keep getting worse. We’re at the end of the stage of capitalism where things seem somewhat ok sometimes and maybe good if you’re lucky. Everything is going to be awful and terrible to increasing degrees from here on.

Sounds like maybe a bit of depression could be hiding behind your anxiety about tech (if so, talk to a professional). I agree with some other takes that getting offline can be helpful. I got offline (as much as I could) for two weeks and it did a good amount to improve my mental health.

Wow, Boeing keeps finding new and interesting ways to be incompetent. They seriously need their entire C-suite replaced with engineering types.

But the Clinton fans who can’t accept how deeply, deeply flawed Clinton was as a candidate want to blame Stein…

Clinton was the worst possible choice. Before seeing the damage that Trump would do, thinking he would be mostly harmless, she made me stay home. I’m voting against that monster just like I did in 2020. The man is a menace.

It’s one of the biggest tech corps making the argument. I feel ok about where I posted it.

Even if you pay, you’ll still be tracked.

Buy a store display meant to show logos and menus. Something like these:

https://www.amazon.com/s?rh=n%3A18746933011&language=en_US&brr=1&ie=UTF8&rd=1

I haven’t evaluated any of them; I just know people talk about them being the only tv screens without smarts.

You wanna use double quotes to wrap it:

alias llaa=“pwd && ll’‘’”

Not enough for comfort.

A closed city or town is a settlement where travel or residency restrictions are applied so that specific authorization is required to visit or remain overnight.

The USA version of this is a sundown town. The reason is racism.

And because I respect you (and I’m not a monster) I altered the URL to point to the main article and not the mobile version. Ffs, people, just delete two characters.
