Ohh, i fully agree. but the second someone does a convincing fake of him saying stuff that would make him big mad, he’ll go off and start denouncing AI :)

One way, or another, that revenue stream will go to shit, they’re just doing a smash and grab while they can.

Man, are they gonna be pissed when people use this against them as well. Collectively we have more time to do stupid shit :)

I was 100% WFH, for a company in California, long before Covid.

We rented an oceanfront condo for a week from a friend, it was a good deal (they were unbooked so they figured a discount for a known user is better the no booking)

I went down there and worked from the condo from 8-6. Solid internet, attended all meetings. My boss got a case of the ass that I was “taking a vacation” and started trying to hop into support calls before I could so he could write me up for taking a vacation without requesting it.

I literally hit every support message within 30 seconds, he spent his whole day trying to do my job for me. By the end of the day, he had the gall to say I wasn’t answering messages quickly enough. I demanded he show me what message he was talking about. Over a whole day of work, there was one message that went unanswered for 45 seconds because I was already working with two separate people. I sent him my chat logs of me working with the other people, and he bitched that I didn’t tell them to wait for 45 seconds.

When I quit, he said, “I have to say I didn’t see it coming, you were always so dedicated, I’m really sorry to see you go, no chance that I could change your mind? Is it salary?” “nope, I was summoned from some people I used to work for, and they’re ready for me”

I hate how dysfunctional so many people are on communication and remote work.

bofh: untags the voice vlan, phone still passes data through

yeah, i’d like to see us abolish email and turn things into slightly long IM’s.

I’ve been struggling for years to condense several thoughts into a single IM, not to blow up the recipient’s attention.

Hello, this is your operator, you have a call from “bobwehadababyitsaboy”

do you accept the charges?

All the right and half the left. How many of the ‘left’ gave ice 10B?

Well, I got fired the security position at the walmart for being too racist. I know, I didn’t think that could happen either, Then the dollar store decided to run with just one person per shift, so I took a couple years off to work on my boat project, then I started working for іcє, until everone started getting mad at me for murdering someone or something, then I had to lay low for while, so i slept on my friends couch for a couple years. Now, I’m here lookin ta make a difference at Holiday Time Santas.

Jesus, I think you just figured it out. It’s all the dead malls.

Idiocracy 2: the alternate timeline

Everyone that was building computers in the 90’s and 00’s

The best part is that the police would generally not get it.

Careful on your uninstall, once my wife uninstalled from her phone*, all of a sudden her account can’t re-connect to delete her data. There’s lots of talk about this on the forums. Delete your account and uninstall all at once.

• my brain said the work i was thinking it wasn’t

The vague part is:

say uninstalls are 1000 / day, so that’s 100%

up 150% is 2500 / day, so 250% of nominal

or is it :)

It depends.

A 2-5 year-old laptop, you want to web browse, maybe watch some videos, use google docs or open office, you probably never need a terminal

If it’s a really new laptop or you want to get the most out of video drivers and push it harder, you’ll probably need to be ready for some light terminal crap. Gets a little janky if you have a dual-video-card setup. Nothing hard to handle, but if you’re not looking to have to handle anything…

I think the numnber of available packages is better on the Debian side. Mint or Kubuntu run newer hotter stuff, debian runs older more stable stuff.

And we look back at the ‘nucular’ brockly puking right wing warmonger who wasn’t trying to kill our own civilians with only moderate disgust.

I saw, but I didn’t partake

It’s either that or just go in chains, like all politicians he’s going to lie his ass off.

Still a nice letter he put out there telling us to protest, i agree with that.

Ying and Yang. You don’t give us what we want, we don’t buy into it.

We’ll buy POS chinese laptops before we rent a desktop from them.

I don’t understand, we had this in the 90’s and it didn’t work then. No company or user wanted their whole desktop to be offsite.

It’s the blanket name for their security architecture. The thing that makes sure your kernel is blessed, tries teo tell if you’re rooted, then sets a fuse flag if anything is off. It also provides a secure, encrypted profile for your phone that bifurcates apps, data, blocks screenshots. The data from the flag is available to apps to tell that your phone is potentially insecure. For the most part, they only block Samsung banking/pay apps and make your secure partition inaccessible.

My next phone will be something degoogled. hopefully something linux.

I’ve already wiped an old disconnected android phone for use with my drone/cameras that require a mobile device.
