"supposed to"

Oopsie whoopsy, we accidentally made competing browsers disadvantaged.

Deliberate, disguised as accidental. Disgusting.

I came here to avoid Reddit.

Now I get their posts like non-interactive ads.

As I understand it, there are a number of factors to Kick's reputation. But this is my perception so bits might be wrong.

Kick as a platform promotes gambling whether the streamers want to or not, and is known for negative attention is still attention style advertising (banned twitch steamers that now are on kick showing up at events sponsored by twitch, and making a fuss before and after being kicked out) And the majority of Kick streamers appear to have questionable social moral judgement, extreme right-wing political views, or were kicked off Twitch for persistent or gross breach of acceptable conduct.

It was intended as an alternative to Twitch, but rapidly gained a reputation as being the place where shady streamers go.

What a surprise, she's a streamer on Kick.

The Hamas attack was terrible. The IDF response has been far, far worse.

Holy shit. Just not "no" when it asks if you want to set up backup, and keep using what you already use.

It's less difficult than falling over.

No internet means the gullible masses will remain uninformed and vulnerable to manipulation.

The GOP wants a solid foundation of uneducated poor to exploit as the base workforce and voter base.

Cheap idiots to fuel their companies.

A massive swathe of current gen devices don't even support it.

It won't be a month.

Microsoft announce changes much smaller than that 4 years out and still have to give extensions.

American measurement systems

People in this list:
Victims
Case detectives
Doctors
Staff at assorted Epstein residences
Rich folk that knew Epstein enough to have been invited to the island.

Some may have been potential victims, involved in Hollywood nepotism or money fuckery. But they are tainted by association.

Remember Epstein didn't kill himself. Those that did it did it in broad daylight and didn't get caught (yet). So I'd be surprised if the worst offenders are even on the list at all.

Teams, when used within a single Org, works great. For 3rd party interaction, or working for multiple Orgs I would highly recommend almost any other product.

The intra-org integration with SharePoint and document management/data retention is very good.

But nonsense like what OP is experiencing is why even I, as the senior MS Support SysAdmin at my employer, refuse to use Microsoft Office products on my personal Android phone.

If they want/need me to do that, they can give me a dedicated phone just for that purpose. MS MAM is never touching my personal equipment in a million years.

OP is stuck between a rock and a crap place.

Doesn't even put "Switch" in the pictures

At work Teams has been great.

Zoom is too bare-bomes.

The I hacked it together at 3am feel of the zoom interface makes me actively hate the damn thing.

Like teams feels like a communication application. Zoom feels like a hobby project.

Yeah... I'm not gonna worry about it until maybe September next year.

Motherfucker!

If I was given an AI interview I would burn that place to the ground. The fucking disrespect.

Dude you're pretty condescending for a new author on an old topic.

Yeah I read it and it's very over worded.

1024 was the closest binary approximation of 1000 so that became the standard measurement. Then drive manufacturers decided to start using decimal for capacity because it was a great way to make numbers look better.

Then the IEC decided "enough of this confusion" and created binary naming standards (kibi gibi etc...) and enforced the standard decimal quantity values for standard names like kilo-.

It's not ground breaking news and your constant arguing with people in the thread paints you as quite immature. Especially when plenty of us remember the whole story BECAUSE WE LIVED IT AS IT PROFESSIONALS.

We lacked a standard, a system was created. It was later changed to match global standard values.

You portray it with emotive language making decisions out to be stupid, or malicious. A decision was made that was perfectly sensible at the time. It was then improved. Some people have trouble with change.

Your writing and engagement styles scream of someone raised on clickbait news. Focus on facts, not emotion and sensationalism if you want to be taken seriously in tech writing.

Focus on emotion and bullshit of you want to work for BuzzFeed.

And if you just want an argument go use bloody twitter.

Or on my watch.

People make mistakes, that's why we automate things. If a system relies on a human not making mistakes it is doomed to fail eventually.

Saving manually should be a feature, but autoaave should be on by default these days, unless 30+ years of people losing work due to not hitting "save" manually has taught us nothing.

Crashes happen. Errors happen. Pets and children happen. Any major document editor should be able to auto save and replay a very long history of actions.

Improve the system, because you can't improve people with a code patch.

Now even tweet previews are busted in Discord.

You can't even share tweets without using something like fxtwitter.

PITA

It's a nack. See one, the others will likely be in a tent shaped layout. Some brains are just very good at visual pattern matching.

I have an unbroken record for being the person that finds anything tiny and lost. In school the kids called me "night vision".

Lose a ball over the fence an 1am. 10 people looking. Can't find it. Get me to look and I find it in 1 minute or less. Lost a diamond or earring backing in shag carpet? I'll find it ao fast you won't believe it.

I've occasionally had to pretend it takes longer to find it, just so they don't think I pranked them and took it.

I got a pop-up that said:
"Hey we have backup to OneDrive now! Do you want to turn it on?". [Yes/no/don't ask again]

It's a fucking arrow pointing from big to small. It has a big end that goes at the big number and a small end that goes at the small number.

It couldn't be simpler.

People still can't remember.

"Your maximum is 7.2 shots per day." (Espresso)

My typical day is 8-12 shots + Concerta for ADHD.

I'm happy with a Bluetooth connection to the stereo. I have maps on my phone.

Fuck carplay/android auto in the ear.

I hate getting a rental car and I just want my music, but it tries to hijack and download my whole phone.

I want to get in, connect my phone and go. Not 20 minutes wrestling it for control.

Digital displays are fine. It's just a display. But controls should be manual (buttons, dials, etc) that can be operated with eyes on road.

I see black and blue with a yellow over wash because of lighting.

To see white and gold in shadow, I have to remove all context prompts, like strip out the background and all lighting artifacts.

I just can't see the white and gold in context. Too many years of colour correcting photos.

I've always struggled with it. Often people let it degrade into a line with tiny bumps, and it becomes illegible.

Personally I am Autistic and have ADHD, so the fine motor control is hard to manage. I can't write cursive neatly, but if I slow right down I can "draw" cursive.

Growing up undiagnosed when I did, has developed a hardy set of calluses across the knuckles from teachers hitting them with a ruler for bad pen grip or messy writing.

Most of those fuckers are dead or in diapers now.

This is just to get rid of people that set up their own sub to be a mod and use modtool right on the API to make their 3rd party app keep working.

Every site in the early 2000s had a left nav menu

Small icons, show title, never combine.

Still waiting on the release that contains this.

Pirrrrrrrr = Pir^8

The UI is still missing basic features. The start menu is fucked.

The OS is fine, the Desktop is under cooked.

Have you heard of Lord Shaxx?
