That if they vote third party before we can get rid of the first-past-the-post system, they are helping their ideological opposite. And a corollary: if they do it because of the genocide in Gaza and Trump encourages a total wipeout of the Palestinian state like he’s telegraphing, the blame for the deaths of those innocent civilians is on them for being self-righteous instead of honest.

Yeah, no. iPhone VPN apps aren’t the route that Russian hackers are taking.

😬 I’m not sure how I’d feel about porn generated on a data set of potential STIs

To be fair, I was in the camp of “put a sock in it” until I reached a point of “alright FINE, I’ll give it a go” and now I’m joining the choir on it, desktop Linux is a dream.

For me, it’s more that our species of primate’s general wellbeing and health was hijacked by a cancer-like abstract concept.

I get most of my brainstorming done at 2:20 – https://youtu.be/DFI6cV9slfI?si=RaMdKtk3GUXB0XZw

I’m somewhere in the middle on it. Like mentioned elsewhere, some of it feels like it’s just to generate additional business around domain registration while companies buy up duplicates to prevent spoofing. Also “.zip” is a fucking travesty.

Agreed. I’m sure if I was heads down in Excel for years beforehand it would be a significant downgrade, but as a casual user, making better use of some of the more advanced features became so, SO much easier with the Ribbon.

I’ve always been hugely in favor of it. It’s the one change that could maybe justify their gargantuan salaries – if your company causes harm and suffering, the leaders absolutely need to be put on the hook.

I mean, they’re one implementor of about 10 that use the same container standards. It sucks that they were first so their name is now synonymous with containers a la Kleenex, but the technology itself is standard, very open and ubiquitous, and a huge step forward in simplifying deployments and development lifecycles that would otherwise be too complex to reasonably handle.

Strong agree. It’s also the absolute best at expressing really long documents of configuration/data.

Hope you stopped at Peace, Love, & Little Donuts or De Fer while you were there! 😋

Luckily we here in America have much more encouraging and progressive viewpoints from people like our VP nominee Vance who said the purpose of “postmenopausal females” is to provide backup childcare.

Ooo, do me next

My insurance site (MyCigna) started working a couple months ago, but for years it failed to log in. It’s those types of contracted apps that seem to fail the most for me, like apps you’d see on a company intranet.

You’ll love the flat and very sturdy design of the new hinges they introduced with the Fold 5. (This is the best phone I’ve ever had by miles.)

Stop trying to make “Blue MAGA” happen

“US PREEMPTIVELY INVADES China over collision in South China Sea with Philippines ship”

Fuck, that’s infuriating. Is there any way to get them off the mod team?

No, my phone went into SOS mode yesterday. No apps, just a button to call 911. And yes, if you lose a ticket, you can indeed miss a flight. Only tale I have for that is a colleague who lost their ticket and the time it took to look up their details put them past boarding, they were stranded at the terminal, but its still an actual risk you can’t wave away.

It takes 5 minutes to save an insane amount of stress and misfortune.
